【正文】 ve been finding the bones of tigers and bears in the caves, and we think these were their most dangerous enemies. Now what do you think this tells us about the life of these early people? (shows picture of a sewing needle)S2.: Gosh! That39。ve discovered fireplaces in the centre of the caves where they made fires. That would have kept them warm, cooked the food and scared wild beasts away as well. We have been excavating layers of ash almost six metres thick, which suggests that they might have kept the fire burning all winter. We haven39。m sorry to interrupt you but how could they live here? There are only rocks and trees.A: Good question. You are an acute observer. We have found human and animal bones in those caves higher up the hill as well as tools and other objects. So we think it is reasonable to assume they lived in these caves, regardless of the cold.S2: How did they keep warm? They couldn39。s here that we found evidence of some of the earliest people who lived in this part of the world. We39。ll deal with that later. First, we must plan the best way to teach her.CP: How about beginning with the alphabet. That39。ll be changed and she has feelings too. We must be practical, mustn39。s in need of both.CP: And there39。d known about this disgusting thing you want me to do ...H: Once more, take her away, Mrs Pearce, immediately. (Outside Eliza is still weeping with Mrs Pearce) You see the problem, Pickering. It39。 not over my whole body, neither below my waist nor taking my vest off. I39。d kill me. I39。t. It ain39。t like the smell of you otherwise.E: (sobbing) I can39。m clean. My clothes went to the laundry when I washed last week.MP: Well, Mr Higgins has a bathtub of his own and he has a bath every morning. If these two gentlemen teach you, you39。s your name, girl?E: I39。ll need to be cleaned first. Take her away, Mrs Pearce. Wash her and burn her horrible clothes. We39。ll be the referee for this little bet and pay for the lessons too ...E: (gratefully) Oh, yer real good, yer are. Thank you, Colonel.H: Oh, she is so deliciously low. (promises) OK, I39。ll say you39。ve had! (to Eliza) But if I teach you, I39。t give yer more than a shilling.H: (ignoring Eliza and speaking to Pickering) If you think of how much money this girl has why, it39。m not asking for any favours and he treats me like dirt.H: How much?E: (happier) Now yer talking. A lady friend of mine gets French lessons for two shillings an hour from a real Frenchman. You wouldn39。t take me 39。stead o39。s the one we saw the other day. She39。ll show you how I make records on wax disks ...MP: (returning) This is the young girl, sir. (Eliza es into the room shyly following Mrs Pearce. She is dirty and wearing a shabby dress. She curtsies to the two men.)H: (disappointed) Why! I39。s quite a mon kind of girl with dirty thought perhaps you wanted her to talk into your machines.H: Why? Has she got an interesting accent? We39。 but your one hundred and thirty beat me. I can39。ll see whether you can get that for me ... (goes out)Act Two, Scene 1 MAKING THE BET It is 11am in Henry Higgins39。ll help me, indeed it will. Tomorrow I39。m Henry Higgins and I was going to India to meet you.CP: And I came to England to make your acquaintance!E: What about me? How39。s that you say? A shop assistant? Now that39。s garden party. Perhaps I could even find her a place as a lady39。s my profession and also my hobby. You can place a man by just a few remarks. I can place any spoken conversation within six miles, and even within two streets in London sometimes. CP: Let me congratulate you! But is there an ine to be made in that?H: Yes, indeed. Quite a good one. This is the age of the newly rich. People begin their working life in a poor neighbourhood of London with 80 pounds a year and end in a rich one with 100 thousand. But they betray themselves every time they open their mouths. Now once taught by me, she39。s quite brilliant! How did you do that, may I ask?H: Simply phonetics studied and classified from people39。m not mistaken.E: (looking confused) What if I was? What39。 ere, cap39。t proper writing. I can39。ve wrote about me!H: Here you are. (hands over the paper covered in writing)E: What39。ou just show me what 39。ou take down my words for? How do I know whether 39。m an honest girl I am! (begins to cry)H: (kindly) There! There! Who39。t it? (leaves)E: (disappointed at the oute, but thinking it is better than nothing) Thank you, sir. (sees a man taking notes and feels worried) Hey! I ain’t done nothing wrong by speaking to that gentleman. I39。s some small change. Will that be of any use to you? It39。t be troublesome, there39。m afraid I39。m sorry but I haven39。 who sets him a task Act One FATEFUL MEETINGS 11 :15 pm in London, England in 1914 outside a theatre.

A man is hiding from the rain listening to people39。s life.選修8 Unit 4 PygmalionReadingPYGMALIONMAIN CHARACTERS:Eliza Doolittle (E): a poor flower girl who is ambitious to improve herselfProfessor Higgins (H): an expert in phonetics, convinced that the quality of a person39。s forehead, he could make his mother understand what he was saying. He believed that one should always be curious and his most famous saying was: Leave the beaten track occasionally and dive into the woods. Every time you do you will be certain to find something that you have never seen before. Follow it up, explore all around it, and before you know it, you will have something worth thinking about to occupy your mind. All really big discoveries are the result of thought. It was this exploring around problems and his dynamic spirit that led to his most famous invention the telephone in 1876.
