⑴ 「看英文電影提高英語聽力」的論文1000字
任何一種能力的培養和學習都是需要興趣來支撐的。學習英語聽說可以使英語不再枯燥無味,不再只是冷冰冰的單詞和語法,而是一種生活的方式,一種快樂的實踐。提高聽說能力的最好方法就是把自己完全浸入英語的語言環境,在這里首推多看英文原版電影和電視劇。
美國好萊塢電影風靡全球,英文原聲電影在我國隨處可見,但大多數英語學習者對觀看原聲電影在英語學習中的策略及作用,存在諸多的疑慮。他們認為,看英語電影是「不務正業」的學習活動。通過觀看原版電影,學習者可以更好地了解語言中的文化現象以及語言與文化之間的依存關系。比如,「Friends」以及「DesperateHousewives」等系列電影,備受許多成功英語學習者青睞。在觀看過程中,我們不僅要注意學習鮮活的日常生活用語,學習「用英語說話」,而且要注意了解英語文化中特有的「喜怒哀樂」。這樣,看電影並不只是一個簡單的娛樂和消遣的過程,也是一個豐富英語語言文化知識、提高綜合運用英語能力
那麼我們都知道要想學好英語,應該先從聽說入手。
英語聽力基礎差的學生,要注意選擇自己喜歡的聽力活動。比如,堅持看英語電影,就是提高聽力的有效途徑,因為電影圖像中的視覺支持,使聽力理解變得更為容易。在具備了基本聽音能力之後,可以堅持聽英語廣播和英語講座。這里,值得提醒的是,有效的聽音過程包括復雜的學習活動。學習者除了注意模仿語音和語調之外,還應該學習和記憶聽音材料中出現的新的語言知識,並注意區分正式口語、日常口語以及書面語的不同表達法。
由於電影都有完整的故事情節、優美動聽的主題音樂,極具震撼力,與學生獲取信息的渠道吻合,,因此合適的影片能給人帶來美的享受,激發我們學習英語的興趣。
語言就是環境的產物,所以大家在學習口語,特別是在練聽力的時候,要不斷地給自己映照出這種環境來。
看電影對學習英語最有幫助,世博外語的張峰校長表示,一定要看英文原版電影,不要看字幕,一直聽下去,當你可以分清一句很長又被說的很快句子的單詞個數的時候,就證明你的英文水平提高了
因為國內英語環境的缺乏造成國內英語學習者的口語學習困難,觀看英文原版電影其實也是學英語的好途徑.文章以風靡美國的情景喜劇《老友記》(Friends)為例,分別闡釋了原版電影中的語音、句子與詞彙、內容與題材以及文化和思維在英語口語學習中的提高作用。
然而,我們平常對於打招呼的話,習慣性的只有:How are you? How do you do? 兩句,到底老外在現實生活裡面是怎麼說話的呢?看看美國電視劇收視神話《老友記》,裡面6個年輕人天天和不同的人打招呼,整整10年了,都沒有什麼重復的話出現。裡面大量的時髦日常用語,是大家學習美國口語挖掘不盡的寶藏。一句How you doing?換不同的語音語調,意思也馬上隨之改頭換面。這樣學習英語的過程將不再是suffering, 而是有所收獲感到高興的過程。
原版電英語句的隨意性,不完整是它的主要特徵。在英語學習過程中,我國的英語學習者接觸的絕大部分是書面語體。而在英語影視劇中,口頭體的語言材料是最重要的特徵,具體表現為口語中流行的慣用表達方式、俚語以及相關的跨文化因素。
而在影視中,角色眾多,根據劇情的要求,每個角色都有自身特有的語音、語調和語速,再加上連讀、弱讀等,這些與我們學習的英語聽力材料相差甚遠,故造成了難以看(聽)懂英語原版影視的情況。
因此,看原版英語影視劇是練習英語聽說的最好途徑,影視劇通過聲音與圖像共同組成了完整的信息,將視覺刺激和聽覺刺激有效地結合在一起,這是其它學習手段所不能達到的,同時還可以調動學習英語的興趣,做到寓學於樂。
那麼電影的作用在於:
1. 電影為語言的運用提供了更真實的情景,使用者更能領悟語言的意境。
近年來隨著社會的不斷發展,人們的文化生活豐富多彩。 人們對於文化的需求不斷的上升。電影事業發展迅速,成為文化陣地的領頭羊。往往一部電影的發行和放映,就引起一股社會的潮流和時尚。尤其是一些大片已經與人們的生活息息相關。一部大片的發行,人們爭先恐後的觀看。生怕走在時代的後面。中學生尤其如此。 大片無論從他的投資和製作都堪稱為典範。其中的故事性強,情節曲折,語言考究並具有時代特色。除次之外,還有經過改編的經典文學巨著的影片,其包含的文化和歷史可為文化的珠寶,永發光芒。從而使人們走進時間隧道,去遨遊的最好去處。人們可以從中不斷的汲取精神的營養。
電影中包含的語言及風俗習慣,以及歷史事實是學生了解世界文化的窗口和主要手段。它可以最大程度的滿足學生對於知識和文化的需求。電影中的人物特點,語言,行為舉止的獨特具有感染力。
然而,電影作為一種文化傳播工具,提供了最好的語言情景,和最實用的語言.電影的對白配合上情景和人物的表情,不像我們課本上的文字那麼枯燥,那麼難以理解.如我們在觀賞獅子王片段時,當辛巴和父親一起在晨曦中眺望自己統治的遼闊疆域時,父親講到Look, Simba, everything the light touches is our kingdom…。那種唯美的畫面和音樂不僅吸引了學生的注意力,也使學生很容易地理解了這句帶有定語從句的復合句及他們所說的每一句話,更使他們充分感悟到了生命的價值和獅子王濃濃的父愛。而如果把這一段以書本的形式一字一句的交給學生是無法讓他們體驗到尊重生命的哲理的。我們還要花更多的時間使學生理解每一句話。這種學習語言的方式是機械的.常常是背了很多到用時還不能用的地道,也不能用的符合英語國家人的習慣。
就拿我國的國產影片來講,近年來推出了不少膾炙人口,走向國際影壇的大片。電影《一個都不能少》「Not one less」 ,《神話》, 「The myth」 《英雄》 「Hero」 等電影都是用英語字幕,語言中滲透著濃厚的文化,但是從英語把他表現出來。而我們學生所運用的教材也有許多是汲取了電影的營養,使其豐滿和具有時代氣息。比如現行教材中許多材料都是圍繞電影的話題來展開的。如高中第一冊的第一單元 「GOOD FRIEND 」 中的閱讀就是電影 「Cast away」就是例子。課文中以魯賓遜的經歷來引出話題,談論如何認識到朋友的重要性及如何交朋友等。設想如果讓學生欣賞該部影片,那麼將更能吸引學生的學習興趣。學生不但可以從中加深對於課文的理解,更能觸發學生對於語言的認識和體驗。
2. 電影作為一種視頻文本所產生的吸引力是我們書本教材所無法比擬的。
這一點是勿庸質疑的。我們天天都在上課,每天都是一樣的枯燥,如此學習的結果是可想而知的,厭倦聽課,厭倦作業
看英文電影重要的是為我們提供了一種學習英語的方式,我想沒有哪套課本能對讓我們對學習英語產生誘惑力和影響力的,而電影卻有。因為電影讓英語「活」起來
其實,看外文電影學英語的方法在我國由來已久。在我國老一輩的旅美作家和學者中,大部分都有過看電影學英語的經歷。如今,通過看電影學英語更成了成人英語教學的常用方法,像「新東方」等國內一些著名英語培訓機構就專門開設了類似的培訓課,通過觀看經典電影來訓練學員的英語口語能力。
看電影學英語,表面在看,原理在聽,這種方法最大的好處就是可以鍛煉聽力。電影聽力不像聽磁帶那樣乾巴巴的,觀眾可以通過故事發展的邏輯推理,感覺到台詞的意思。另外,在詞彙學習上,可以將詞彙的用法做詳盡的分析,挖掘詞語的深層含義,對詞彙有一個全方位的認識,而不僅僅停留在「就詞論詞」上。
另外,通過觀看電影,觀眾可以更加了解西方文化,體會東西方價值觀念的不同,將語言上升到真正意義上的交流,讓英語真正「活」起來。
3電影中所使用的語言是純正的,地道的,更是實用的。
眾所周知,學習語言應通過對話進行。不同語言的會話結構差別不大,大部分可以從母語遷移過來。差別大的是參加和進行談話的習俗,如怎樣遵從本族語言國家人的說話方式和禮儀等。電影課可以形象直觀的向學習者展示怎樣通過會話實現語言的各種功能。使學習者不僅僅學到知識本身,更重要的是可以學到語言的使用背景,真正可以使用到正確的場合。
語音作為語言學習的一個重要組成,第二語言的語音系統既不是第一語言的,也不是目的語的。它與第二語言語法系統一樣,是學習者自己的一套系統。影響語音習得的因素是多方面的,有的因素與學習者的母語無關,屬於語言的普遍性;有的因素屬於母語遷移;有的因素屬於學習者的認識能力。學習者的困難不是新的語音或者母語中沒有的語音,而是與母語相近的語音。如果不考慮目的語系統,只單純根據本族語者的發音來糾正學生的發音,這樣的教學方法有失全面。而通過原版的英文電影,可以有效補充靠中國英語老師來糾正發音的劣勢。
電影中使用的語言都是最地道的,合乎英語國家人說話習慣的。學語言不光要學所謂的官方的正式的語言,還要充分理解貧民語言和文化,以及發展中的語言。而通過電影學生們不止能學習地道的英語,還能學習很多課本上見不到的俚語和俗語,了解不同民族的文化背景與習俗以及理解相同的句子在不同場合的意義。而電影正為我們的教材提供了這種條件和補充。因此,在英語教學中加入英文電影配音,使學生的英語學習興趣,口頭表達能力,語言認知能力都有了極大的提高。並通過對影視的了解和把握,可以從一個方面了解一個民族的文化,具備藝術素質,為學生理解現當代社會歷史與其它門類的文化藝術,提供學習和探究的基礎平台,是對現行外語教學方式有機的補充,為我們在國內也能習得流利地道的英語提供了一條捷徑。
電影藉助聲音和圖像,我們不僅易於理解真實的語言材料,而且能逐漸掌握英語為母語者說話的語言使用特點。日積月累,可幫助我們突破聽力理解的大難關,同時對我們的口語也有促進作用。
然而,原版電影還有以下作用:
1、看英文原版電影有助於你將背下的句子用出去!因為當你發現電影里的人物脫口而出的竟是你能背下的句子時,那是很興奮的!這也是在間接的賣弄你學的句子。要記住,賣弄一次比背十次的印象還要深!
2、英文原版電影是學發音的最好材料!我們平時練習發音都是一個單詞一個單詞的練,對著枯燥的口腔圖糾正發音,似乎發音的練習如此的漫長而又枯燥!對初學者來說,有必要掌握基本的發音規則和規律,但是一旦你有了一定的詞彙量和句子量後,就應該投入到實戰中去,而英文的原版電影就是非常好的實戰!
3、 看英文原版電影能激活你學的單詞、句子和語法!因為孤立的背單詞和語法是沒有用的,必須把它用出去,而看英文原版電影則可以將你學的單詞全部激活,變成你的口語單詞,一個單詞一旦變成你的口語單詞以後,那這個單詞已經達到最高境界了!
4、看英文電影是避免枯燥的最好的方式!天天苦行僧似的一個人在默默的背著單詞和句子確實很辛苦,而且不見得成效有多大!但如果你去看英文電影,裡面的情節會很快吸引你的注意力,在不經意的時候掌握了英語!
5、 看英文原版電影能讓你學到最鮮活的詞彙和表達!這是非常重要的,因為我們平常背的句子其實有很多都是已經過時的或者在口語中不常用的句子,但通過看英文原版電影我們可以學到很多最時髦、最鮮活的詞彙和表達法,比如昨天我看老友記時學到了一個地道的表達法,叫Have you put your foot down?(你已經決定好了嗎?)還好很多很多好的地道表達等著你去學習和吸收!
6、看英文電影給你提供了一個全英文環境!幾乎所有學英語的中國人都在抱怨,我們學英語缺的是英語環境。其實不然,通過看英文電影你其實已經完全溶入在那個環境里了,你會想像你就在那個電影裡面,扮演著某個角色,操著一口流利的英語在跟別人交談,多麼美妙,多麼愜意!
⑵ 急求英美電影欣賞論文(英文的)
Men of Honor
《斯蒂文森小說精華》下卷收錄《黑箭》及《綁架》,這兩部長篇都是非常引人入勝的歷史小說。在介紹二書各自的時代背景以前,不妨讓我們先來鳥瞰一下英國歷史,它的大脈絡,那是很有趣的。
提起英國,人們只知道是個老牌帝國主義,十九世紀首先就是這匹惡狼闖進我們的家園。但是,在不列顛(聯合王國除開北愛爾蘭)那片土地(約略相當於我國湖南省)上,曾經多少次遭受外族血與火的蹂躪?多少次山河變色、國破家亡?一代又一代,有多少個入侵者、殺人兇犯,又有多少個英奸、賣國賊,最後都成了他們民族英雄和歷史偉人,我們中有幾位能夠說瞭然於胸呢?一筆一筆血淋淋的陳年舊帳,整個的英國歷史我們可以大體上概括為:三次種族大換血,三次淪為殖民地(即文化大換血或輸血),三次開門揖盜,引狼入室,認賊作父——其中兩回全國都成了我們中國的吳三桂。這就是一部英國史!
大約距今九千年以前,不列顛諸島與歐洲大陸還是連成一體的,那裡居住著中石器時代的地中海人和阿爾卑斯人。約五千年前,伊比利亞人自地中海地區西遷,是首批從大陸渡海過來的,征服了原有的居民。這次征服必定十分野蠻悲慘,使我們已經找不到任何中石器人的痕跡了。著名文化古跡索爾茲伯里平原上的怪石圈,就是伊比利亞人留下來的。是為第一次換血。
到了約兩千五百年以前,有凱爾特人自今天德國南部一路砍殺過來,先後佔領了今日法蘭西、西班牙、葡萄牙、義大利等地,接著又越海占據了不列顛諸島,殘酷屠戮伊比利亞人。是為第二次換血。
自公元一世紀中葉,羅馬帝國對不列顛進行了長達四百年的殖民統治。政府、法律和商業都使用拉丁語,只剩下鄉下人才說凱爾特話。鋪石的公路自此四通八達,繁榮城鎮星羅棋布,羅馬人還帶來了基督教,其文化、習俗、生活用品也大量滲入,整個社會生活都羅馬化了。直到五世紀初老家起火,他們才開始撤離。這是第一次被殖民地化。[ 轉自鐵血社區 http://bbs.tiexue.net/ ]
前門去狼,後門進虎。緊接著於五世紀中葉,原居住在西北歐的三個日耳曼野蠻部族——盎格魯、撒克遜和朱特人橫渡北海,所謂「條頓人的征服」,(嚴格地講,可以說是四次引狼入室。因為羅馬軍團撤離以後,軟弱的不列顛暴露於北方野蠻蘇格蘭人同皮克人的侵擾之下。據說首先是一位凱爾特部族領袖,主動邀請朱特人前來協辦國防的;而朱特人見有隙可乘,後來才反客為主,並引發盎格魯及撒克遜人也來大舉入侵。)耗時一百五十年。秦始皇焚書坑儒?小菜一碟!日耳曼人把凱爾特整個一個民族的成年男子幾乎打殺干凈啦(第三次換血)!他們這些劊子手構成了今天英吉利民族的主體。自然,殘留的婦孺免不了繁衍生息,於是一代又一代的混血種橫空出世。
金庸歷史小說非常有趣,其耐看不亞於斯蒂文森。然而,若按照小說中那些仁人志士伸張正義、替天行道的血性脾氣,非得要報伊比利亞人同凱爾特人,還有中石器人的血海深仇,將那些屠夫的孽種——今日的英國人,殺個精光不可!
歷三四百年七國並存(類春秋戰國)的局面,遲到九世紀初,延伸至十一世紀初,日耳曼野蠻人終於從自身各個部族紛亂稱雄之中名義上得到統一,演繹出英國統治世系的第一個朝代——撒克遜系。
就在撒克遜系統御國家的同時,九至十一世紀,來自北歐的維京海盜——其中主要是丹麥人,大規模入侵英國。他們除了在英格蘭東北部建立「丹麥區」,進行直接赤裸裸的統治之外,以後又向南方擴張。到十一世紀上半葉,雖說不斷受到盎格魯撒克遜人的反抗,仍有三十年之久,整個英格蘭都已置於了丹麥國王卡紐特統治之下 ——此三十年即英國朝廷的第二系,丹麥系。前後歷三百年,語言、文化、司法、度量衡……無不受到深深的影響。屈辱的殖民地史,居然列入了國祚的正統。
十一世紀中葉卡紐特帝國瓦解以後,政權重歸撒克遜人的手中,是謂西撒克遜系。但是新王愛德華之母卻是個諾曼底人(所謂諾曼底人本來也不是諾曼底的人,而是原居住於北歐的諾曼人,於九世紀南徙至今法國西北部、由於他們到來才稱做諾曼底的地方,安頓了下來。操法語,與法國同化了。當時受封於國王的公爵,其領地叫公國,伯爵的叫伯國。十世紀初建立了諾曼底公國,為法國封建諸侯中最強大的;名份上為法王屬下,實際有相當的獨立性),國王本人是個半撒克遜半諾曼底的雜種,他自幼在諾曼底長大,長期流亡於茲,三十八歲才回國。即位以後便大量起用諾曼底人,還跟其表弟諾曼底公爵結為聯盟,以抗衡國內的貴族,並使法語成為社會上層主要的交流工具。可謂里通外國、引狼入室之先聲。
一○六六年,那位表弟諾曼底公爵威廉,根據表哥生前有讓他繼位之願望,率兵五千乘艦隊入侵英國,打敗並殺死了新王哈羅德。英國大主教於西敏寺為之加冕,憑著聖經將英格蘭交付與之,不久他便攜著一批歸順的大主教、王孫貴族,返回諾曼底去也。勝利的法國人幾年以內不斷焚毀村莊,殺戮平民,掠奪英國貴族的土地以犒賞親屬及隨從,統治上層換成了諾曼人的天下,新貴族取代了盎格魯撒克遜的老貴族,諾曼底——法蘭西語和諾曼——法蘭西法律成了英格蘭宮廷、英格蘭貴族的語言和法律。教會也由法國來的義大利籍大主教接管了。然而,正是這位建立了諾曼底王朝的外國殖民君主同他的世子(繼位者)們,於司法制度、興建教堂乃至形成上議院、文化……等等方面諸多建樹,即是說從世俗(硬體)同靈魂(軟體)兩個方面,為社會公正奠定了基礎,開創了不朽的盛世基業,很有一點漢武帝的氣象哩!原先盎格魯撒克遜時期每個人只有一個單名,現今這樣名字後邊尾以姓氏,也是模仿他們法國貴族來的,這便是第三次殖民地化。自此以後,再也沒有外族跨海入侵、成立霸業的情事了。君主世襲制度也是從威廉肇始,故被英國人大捧特捧為「征服者威廉」,幾乎被當成我們的堯舜禹湯(真是一群厚顏無恥的亡國奴)![ 轉自鐵血社區 http://bbs.tiexue.net/ ]
說起堯舜禹湯,要提一下英國朝代遞嬗的歷史,那是遲到九世紀之初,自撒克遜國王埃格伯特開端的;較之我國西周共和,要晚上一千六百多年。一千二百年以來劃為三個系、九代王朝,九朝當中還夾著一個共和政體。三系前邊已經交代過了,第一代王朝便是這位威廉一世所建立。近一百年以後,安茹(法國地名)伯爵亨利二世(威廉一世的重外孫,又是一個外國人)跑到英國來,創建了安茹(又名金雀花)王朝——試設想一下,中國歷史上若在北京建立一個約克(英地名)王朝或普瓦提埃(法地名)王朝,敝國上邦的文人們會不出來文飾一番,聽由它赤裸裸洋名字刺激自己的自尊心嗎?兩朝共歷三個半世紀之久,其中很長一段時間英國都是在法國國王的指揮棒下,讓法國人或其後裔黃袍加身,君臨英土。他們既是英國的一國之主,又在法國享有大片封地,作為法國藩鎮,法王的附庸,其實心裡只把英國當成一塊殖民地,諾曼底才是他們的老巢,他們的根。一世以下有七位帝君,他們對英國只是遙領而已,大部分時間仍舊都呆在諾曼底的,其第六位在位十年,居留英國還不及一年哩。你看清兵入關,滿人主宰天下以後,表現比他們還要好一些。盡管如此,英國人不去卧薪嘗膽,不去做伯夷叔齊,偏還要把亨利二世這個法國拐子,也看作他們歷史上最偉大的君王之一!直到十三世紀初法王將諾曼底收了回去,英國的君主這才慢慢地,開始一心一意作個名副其實的英國國王了。又過了將近兩百年,朝廷重行回復到英國血統手中,開始了蘭開斯特王朝。不過這一回殖民地亡國奴的滋味還要有得嘗,又經歷了大半個世紀,下一個約克王朝的第一任國王開始,才可以娶英國女子——而非法國女子,為王後;再又到建立都鐸王朝的國王手上,英語才取代法語成為官方語言。到十八世紀的三十年代在法庭上才廢止法語使用英語。
剩下來還有兩次值得一提。第一回在一六八九年,中國的吳三桂剛剛於十年前閉上眼睛,英國大多數宗教徒出於強烈反對天主教國王掌政,不顧不久前荷蘭海軍駛入泰晤士河奇襲英皇家艦艇的國恥(1666年6月,荷蘭海軍迅雷不及掩耳沖入泰晤士河,炮毀英國艦只無數,王家船塢付諸一炬,尤為奇恥大辱者海軍旗艦「皇家查爾斯號」竟被虜走。炮聲隆隆,倫敦震撼,實實在在預演了一場珍珠港事變),請求國王的女兒瑪麗同她的丈夫、荷蘭統治者威廉(威廉不僅是國王的女婿,還是他的親外甥)前來承繼王位。於是女兒偕同女婿率軍登陸英國,打得老豆跟老岳丈落荒而逃(當時瑪麗的胞妹安,以及她的丹麥丈夫,倒向姐姐、姐夫一邊,也背叛了老爹及泰山。後來安繼威廉三世為女王,這個忤逆不孝的女人惡有善報,極富政聲)。群臣請命:「瑪麗女王,威廉攝政,如何?」「不幹!」於是這位既有德國也有英國血統的荷蘭雜種威廉三世,英國話都說不好的,堂而皇之地坐上了龍椅(瑪麗為王後)。中國人要質問:倫理焉在,仁義何存?簡直豈有此理!可是,沿襲至今虛君實相的民主政治體制——議會高於國王、平民院高於貴族院 ——正是此時確立,兩黨制格局也自茲形成;還有大敗法王路易十四、成就英第一帝國等等功業。因此,英國人把這次不怎麼流血的外戚入侵、大家都當亡國奴,十分自豪地稱之為「光榮革命」,看得比中國人心目中的唐宗宋祖,還要高出許多頭哩。
第二回是在二十五年以後,安女王仙逝無嗣,同樣出於英國國教對天主教的排斥,遵照國會法案,舉國迎接女王的表兄弟、德國番佬、漢諾威公爵喬治登基,稱喬治一世。根本不會說英語,又在德國土生土長的他(其太子,後來繼位的國王也一樣),開始了史書上倒數第二個王朝,那又是一個以外國地名命名的王朝!此王朝繁演了一百多年,傳到了維多利亞。嘩,這位十八歲少女直到白發蒼蒼八十二歲老太太,金鑾殿上龍椅一坐就是六十四年,比咱們康熙老皇帝還要長哇!可這個維多利亞不也是個雜種嗎,原來她的母親本是德意志一個小公國的寡婦,後來嫁到了英國王室。女王從小就在日耳曼人的教養下長大,母語說德語,英語一輩子也說得不地道。登基三年後又嫁給她所狂熱崇拜的一位母系的表弟——不消說,那是個純種日耳曼,狼子野心、非我族類無疑的嘍!此後更加封親王,倚之為左右手,批閱公文,干預朝政,(嗚呼,大權旁落,一至於斯!)然而天哪,正是這一對野夫婦,文治武功,創造出英國歷史上最輝煌的黃金時代!中國的中山路、中山堂、中山大、中山醫科大……已經夠多的啦,而以她維多利亞命名的,更遍及英、加、澳、亞、非諸多地域,還要多得多啊。英國人拿勝利、勇氣、恆心、真理、母性、正義、科學與文藝、和平與進步……幾乎所有想得到的頌辭,都奉獻給了她,親王也同樣地世世代代倍受尊崇。你們瞧這個國民有多賤!其實,維多利亞的意義不僅限於英國。十八世紀,世界文明的重心在巴黎;十九世紀三十年代以後,即進入維多利亞時代,世界文明的重心到了倫敦。
以上這一類故事並不僅限於英國。我們知道古代日耳曼本是一個游牧民族,精壯男子去外邊打仗,不斷奪取新的土地,然後整個部落,男女老少,不斷地易地遷居。他們極其重視榮譽,而這種榮譽是建立在比狠斗勇上邊,認為掠奪、流血得來的財物,遠比誠實勞動——流汗得來的光榮。所以打仗——掠奪,便成了生活的至高目的。為了搶劫不惜殺身成仁,捨生取義,血流成河,何等的悲壯!公元前一○二年,二十萬條頓人於今法國馬賽附近幾乎全數被殲,死屍之多,居民不得不用白骨去砌葡萄園的藩籬。次年另一支日耳曼人在義大利北部犧牲更為慘烈,不單男人個個戰死不屈,婦女們也成群先殺死自己的孩子,然後自刎。而歐洲人脈管中涌動著的,正是古羅馬人(也是好戰的種族)和古日耳曼人的血液!由此我們得知,如同漢民族這樣死守著東亞一大片腹地,老子說「夫唯兵者不詳之器」,墨子主張「非攻」,勤勤懇懇地從事農耕;三千年來各種民族成份無太大變動地延續了下來,雖足堪自豪,卻並非世界人類史的唯一模式。
固然,王室皇族之間跨國互通嫁娶在歐洲的歷史中據有特殊的地位,甚至曾經與民族國家之逐步形成同步進行,這一點本來同中國不大相同。即便是如此,從以上我們仍然可以得知,英國人是把宗教信仰、經濟、政治的現實利益,以及實際政績,看得高於抽象的民族感情的。所以像漢族這樣,將對民族的忠貞當作超乎一切最高的價值標准,不惜擲頭顱灑熱血,赴湯蹈火;譬如從明末無數忠義之士壯烈殉國,清初到處反清復明,直鬧到秋瑾,乃至孫中山還要靠黑社會排滿起家,並不是人類文明史惟一的模式。
中國村只是地球上的一個角落,行善的人喜歡說「將心比心」,將心比心無疑是非常之好的;但是若認為鄰村的善惡標准、價值取向,也應當同自己的一模一樣,那便要謬誤千里了。今天,跨在廿一世紀門檻上的我國青少年理應知己知彼,對這個多元的世界,對其他各個國家不同的歷史,有更多的了解,具更博大的眼光,更寬闊的胸懷,以便當一個不至於丟人現眼的地球公民。愛國主義源於普遍的人性,民族沙文主義則要不得。
歷史家皮名舉有言「不學本國史不知道中國的偉大,不學西洋史不知道中國的落後」。信哉!
⑶ 高分 英語論文 電影
The Impressive Features of Forrest Gump
Forrest Gump is one of the most charming films of recent times. Though it is a comedy, it isn』t only for fun. Its humour and symbols are quite complicated. From the film audiences can see Gump』s life philosophies, American social problems and national characteristics.
The use of symbols and motifs in this film are very excellent. My favourite symbol is the feather, which had drifted for a long time finally it landed beside Gump』s feet, and he picked it up. The motif of the feather represents Gump』s willingness to be blown around by the winds of fate and history. And I think the box of chocolates that Gump intends to give Jenney is known by everybody who loves films. Gump says that his mother always told him, 「Life is like a box of chocolates—you never know what you are going to get.」 The chocolates just represent life. Since the chocolates remind Gump of his mother and they are a gift for Jenny, they also represent his love of these two women. Maybe because of the meaning of the chocolates many film fans would like to choose the words said by Gump』s mother as their motto.
Through the contrast of Gump and Jenny we can see two different kinds of life styles. These are the two kinds of Americans life styles. Like many Americans, Gump is the optimistic side but he gets his fortune without know his harm to others. Like the other Americans, Jenny』s life is a mess she lives with drugs abuse and caught AIDS. Through Gump』s experiences audiences can learn about some social problems in America, such as segregation, Vietnam. Gump always can be the center of many great events of recent American history.
Gump has a charming character. Though he affected by mental disability he is a credible person. His innocent made him loved by audiences. When Lieutenant Dan loses his legs and said 「I was Lieutenant Dan.」 Gump said 「You still Lieutenant Dan.」 He always has powers and passions to face every new day. To Bubba and Lieutenant Dan, he gives them his real friendship. For Jenny, he pays his deep love.
Winston Groom give us a good story, Robert Zemeckis give us a good film. I love this film, because of its humour and its deep meaning. Forrest Gump is a memorable comedy, it is far more complicated than I have analyzed. Since it is complicated the critics are divided.

This film can let people think more about the life styles of themselves. It made me treasure love and the beauties in my life. After all it is a great film for me to appreciate.
Forrest Gump印象深刻的特點 Forrest Gump是其中一部最近時期最迷人的影片。 雖然它是喜劇,它是不僅為樂趣。 它的幽默和標志是相當復雜的。 從影片觀眾能看Gump的生活哲學、美國社會問題和全國特徵。 對標志的用途和主題在這部影片是非常優秀的。 我的喜愛標志是羽毛,長期漂移了它在Gump的腳旁邊最後登陸,並且他接它。 羽毛的主題代表Gump的自願由命運和歷史風吹得亂飛。 並且我認為Gump意欲給的箱巧克力Jenney由愛影片的每個人知道。 Gump說他的母親總告訴了他, 「生活是象一個箱子巧克力你從未知道什麼您得到」。 巧克力代表生活。 因為巧克力提醒Gump他的母親,並且他們是一件禮物為雌鳥,他們也代表這二名婦女他的愛。 可能由於許多電影迷希望選擇詞巧克力的意思由Gump的母親說作為他們的座右銘。 通過Gump和雌鳥對比我們能看二不同生活方式。 這些是這二美國生活樣式。 象許多美國人, Gump是樂觀邊,但他得到無他的時運知道他的害處對其他。 象其他美國人,雌鳥的生活是她與濫用毒品和被捉住的愛滋病居住的混亂。 通過Gump的經驗觀眾在美國能得知一些社會問題,例如離析,越南。 Gump可以總是最近美國歷史許多巨大事件的中心。 Gump有一個迷人的字元。 雖然他由精神傷殘影響了他是一個可信人。 他的清白的人做了觀眾愛的他。 當丹陸軍中尉丟失他的腿,並且時說「我是丹陸軍中尉」。 Gump仍然說「您丹陸軍中尉」。 他總有能力和激情面對每新的天。 對Bubba和丹陸軍中尉,他給他們他真正的友誼。 為雌鳥,他支付他深刻的愛。 Winston修飾給我們一個好故事, Zemeckis給我們一部好影片的羅伯特。 由於它的幽默和它深刻的意思,我愛這部影片。 Forrest Gump比我分析了是一個難忘的喜劇,它復雜。 因為它被復雜化評論家被劃分。 這部影片導致了一系列的文化關於「Gump」,例如「Gumpish」 「Gumpnized」。 作家和編輯可以是老師對觀眾到程度。 這部影片可能讓人更多考慮生活方式他們自己。 它在我的生活中做了我珍寶愛和秀麗。 在所有它是一部偉大的影片為了我能贊賞之後。

The Analysis of the Professional Leon(此文是這個殺手不太冷的影評) The Meaning of Life—Hope The Professional Leon which is directed by Luc Besson is an attractive and affecting movie. It is a story about a professional killer and a 14-year-old girl. In my opinion, this film reflects the influence of hope in people』s lives. Life is a magic thing. It is like a thick forest and when we walk through it, we need hope to lead us. Hope can change one』s mind. Hope can change one』s life.The first reason is the change between the settings from the beginning to the end. The film began with the oppressive cityscapes: roads, streets, alleys and then the screen turned dark. They are the characteristics of Film Noir. Besides, the protagonist Leon appeared from a black shot which is a special close-up. In addition, the following shot are fighting in some rooms. The whole beginning leads to a mood of cold and oppression. However, at the end of the film is a scene of orphanage. The sunshine illuminated the trees and the grass. The scene is bright and warm. Then the shot got far and far. This showed that life was going on and the sunshine brought us hope to live. The world turned peace again, and the mood turned soft and cozy. Therefore, the change of the beginning and the end showed the dark had gone and everyone got their hope. In this film, there is a symbol of hope-Leon』s evergreen. It ran through the whole film. The protagonist Leon, at fist, was a typical killer who was skillful and cold. The evergreen for him is the hope of life. It meant Leon』s valuable memory-the girl he loved. Everyday he cleaned the leaves of the evergreen carefully. He thought the evergreen was quiet and happy, so he took care of it as his most valuable thing. Actually, he lived in his memory and what he must protect is the hope-evergreen. For Leon, there was no meaning of the reality until he met the girl –Mathilda. When the girl implored Leon to open the door, he hesitated. Yes, of course. It was because everything would change since he opened the door. Actually, Leon was a simple, kind and attentive man who was not good at express himself. We can know that from watching old movie and ironing clothes. After accepting the girl, Leon chose the responsibility in his heart. His life changed because his hope changed. His living purpose was to protect the girl and revenge on Stan. Furthermore, his good-side was stimulated by the girl』s love. They were interdependent as a special relationship. I fact, Leon was not a killer any more since he met Mathilda. He was a real man. Another hope is reflected by Mathilda』s attitude of life. Mathilda』s family was inharmonious. She couldn』t feel love in this family, so she became unyielding and mature at an early age. She hated her relatives except her little brother. If she didn』t met Leon, her life would be out of imagination. When Leon opened the door, a light shone on Mathilda. This light of life is a symbol of change. Since she lived with Leon, she felt care from Leon, and she fell in love with him. She wanted to be with him forever. The hope of her life is Leon. She took care of their「home」and took care of him. When Leon ordered her go, she was in agony. She knew that she wouldn』t see him again. She was afraid that the hope of life would disappear. At last, she planted the evergreen near the orphanage, and the evergreen became her hope. She got a new view of this world, and she would cherish the memory of Leon who saved her life and soul. This story is a fairy tale of killer. The killer managed to protect his hope as the expanse of his life, whereas he died in comfort. Maybe, there is another dark world concealed near us. However, it is because the shine of hope has not illuminated it. And the meaning of life is the process of seeking hope.

關鍵詞:英文電影片名
翻譯標准
翻譯方法
一、引言
電影,又被稱為「第七藝術」
,如今已經發展成為一種具有獨特魅力和藝術效果的特殊
藝術效果。
英文電影片名的翻譯也引起越來越多的關注。
雖然英文電影片名的翻譯常被認為
屬於跨文化交際,
但它也擁有自身明顯的特點,
不同於其他的翻譯實踐。
本文就從分析英文
電影片名翻譯的特點著手,舉例介紹英文電影片名翻譯的標准及翻譯的常見方法。
二、英文電影片名翻譯的特點
一部電影首先吸引觀眾的就是它的片名。
人們常說好的片名就是電影成功的一半,
因此
電影片名的翻譯必定是具備與其他翻譯實踐不同的特點。
1.
信息傳遞性
信息傳遞性是英文電影片名翻譯最重要的特點。電影片名一般要求簡潔明了,但這並不妨礙它傳遞出電影的基本信息。通常觀眾可以通過片名來判斷出該電影的類型,如《生死時速》(Speed),我們可以判斷出它為動作片(action movie);《人鬼情未了》(Ghost)為情故事(love story);《冒牌天神》(Bruce Almighty)為喜劇電影(comedy);《沉默的羊》(Silence of the Lambs)為恐怖片(horror movie)等。更為重要的是,觀眾可以從片名中獲知電影的些許基本內容和情節。如通過片名《律政俏佳人》(Legally Blond)我們可以得知這部影片的故事情節將圍繞法律展開。又如《諾丁山情緣》(Netting Hill)告訴我們影片將講述在倫敦諾丁山發生的一段浪漫的愛情故事。因此,英文電影片名翻譯的信息傳遞性是英文電影吸引觀眾最重要的功能。
2.
文化特殊性
語言是文化的載體,翻譯實踐也與文化息息相關,英文電影片名的翻譯尤為如此。無論電影是真實還是誇張的,它都是對生活的反映,電影片名也是這樣,因此,英文電影片名的翻譯也反映了文化的特殊性。英文片名通過各種各樣的方式來表現文化的特殊性,如習語、俚語等的應用。
《第一滴血》(The First Blood)是一部著名的動作電影。越戰復員士兵Rambo回家鄉後處處受到當地治安官的壓迫,為了生存,他不得不用自己的方式做出反抗。這部電影講述的不是愛情或友情,也不是理解或寬恕。它講述的是一個國家的恥辱和一位士兵的光榮。國家將人民送入地獄深淵,這位士兵拚死要保衛自己的尊嚴。在中國,這部電影被直譯為《第一滴血》。漢語中它並沒有任何特殊的含義,但在英語中「the first blood」指的是在第一場戰斗中擊敗(beating the enemy in the first battle)。因為文化的特殊性,這個片名傳達出無盡的深意。
3.
藝術審美性
電影有著優美的音效和畫面,已經成為當代最受歡迎的藝術形式。電影具有濃厚的美學價值,這在電影的片名中就有體現。在翻譯英文電影片名的時候,好的中文譯名也能傳遞出美的信息,頗具藝術審美性。如《廊橋遺夢》(The Bridge Of Madison Country),「廊橋」自讓指的是在電影中多次出現的橋,而「遺夢」對中國人來說意味著一去不復返、再也無法經歷的美好回憶。這個譯名深深打動了中國觀眾,讓中國觀眾體會到電影所傳達出的愛情的傷感。
三、英文電影片名翻譯的標准
現在英文電影在中國越來越受歡迎,人們接觸的英文原聲電影也越來越多。英文電影片名的翻譯也隨著時代帶的進步發生著明顯的變化,直譯的片名在減少,而為了滿足市場需求以及為了觀眾能更好地理解,片名在翻譯的過程中也被增補了很多信息。但是,像所有的翻譯實踐一樣,英文電影片名的翻譯也有必須遵循的標准,不能只為了吸引眼球而放棄一些翻譯的原則。
1.反映電影的主題
英文電影片名翻譯必須遵循原作,不能憑空想像,否則即使片名很吸引人也不能稱之為好的翻譯。比如,有人將The Thing You Do Into譯為《擋不住的奇跡》,Eye for an Eye譯為《逍遙法外》,Four Weddings and Funeral譯為《你是我今生的新娘》

《Alexander》about it. ——《亞歷山大大帝》觀後感~
I am a student, study more onerous task to all immersed in a pile, thick book of other aspects of knowledge about nature also less. In order to broaden their horizons, when choosing courses, I usually choose some human science classes. Remember when a friend gave high school had a Greek mythology to me, that is, from the book, I see a god of the mind and I've also is the traditional Chinese religion in the image of god is completely different. Greek mythology of the gods of the people who have thoughts, feelings, and the joy of the people, sadness, jealous, have fear. But god is the Oriental religions in, or even omnipotent, is ordinary mortals cannot be achieved. But because those books and the names of the gods and long, sometimes make me confused, I eventually failed to read the book. Myth, of course, is part of the culture of the classical Greek, in order to understand with many Greek mythology, when he saw the ancient Greek culture, when elective without hesitation, I chose. Fortunately, I choose. Through a study of the semester, although no Greek culture and in-depth understanding of ancient Greece, but the experienced periods have probably know for certain period of development, the typical of the political system, cultural phenomenon also have certain knowledge, I think is good harvest. Of course, the teacher said to the final paper to write, I still feel a bit silly, I don't know what good, because although much knowledge of ancient Greece, but to really understand some of the problems one write an essay, I think my knowledge is not enough. Just recently saw "Alexander of Alexander's life", interest, but to know before Alexander, so you have to find some information, and some of the facts is mentioned below from these materials, not do annotation.
Video introction
Alexander the great was about the history of the world's first emperor Alexander conquered Eurasian of life. Alexander BC, in Macedonian king is 3.56 Philip ii, once studied Aristotle, 19 years old father was assassinated succession to the throne. He first, then pacify defeated the Persian empire, began 22,000 miles of conquest. 25 years old, Alexander had established including the Nile valley, dry peninsula and the Ins civilization across Europe in Asia, but the Alexander under age 33 because inexplicable disease die suddenly.
In this film, Alexander the great friend (Anthony Hopkins ptolemaic general) through memory, the emperor's will as life. Forty years ago, Hollywood has taken Alexander, but only about his hero. The new version, full of adventure and dream from the childhood, thrust his parents fight, then the sad for him by Aristotle and mapping lesson, graally to his invicible paving the way to conquer. This is the life of the vivid characterization.
The director of Alexander oliver stone said: "this is probably the biggest challenges in my life, hope can make it much objective." In order to do this, stone is hard. Rafer specially invited professor of the university of Oxford robin Ryan fox as the historical consultant. The fox is research of Alexander the great expert, once wrote biographies of Alexander, sales of more than 100 million copies. He accepted the invitation gladly, but a condition, is to them in the emperor's elite cavalry, and must stand in the front of the team, he "fight" for Alexander dream.
Stone has invited the ancient linguists, tries to make some of the lines to real effect. Language Fox watched the movie said after school and historical scholars should get there watching for discussion.
However, if the movie history book, it obviously lost as the value of the movie. "Alexander" in the context of history, the plot details on again. Films, Alexander's father told him: a woman more dangerous than men, as the king had hurt his lover, Mother kept his place before him, said his father. Without these details on the history, but the parents struggle was mentioned. Alexander, such as wedding night, the bride almost killed him, although not in the historical lee, but the bride was defeated by Alexander, daughter of darius, the plot and have confidence. Therefore, the writer's creation that is reasonable, no violation of history.In addition, the recent history of the new viewpoint about Alexander historiography, more and more absorbed some characters, appear very full.
A pursuit of dreams
Above has been mentioned in the film, and the understanding of Alexander before, so he is the first impression from the movie, here is to put the matter what facts. Admittedly, the film Alexander some arbitrary, even some cold, but sometimes think conversely, if no such a domineering, pride and resolute, he can become a history of Chinese strategists hoyywood hills? However, I want to discuss and not his military command art, but his pursuit of dreams and in the process which reflects personality, it is exciting and amazing. If someone was born, this man is the conqueror Alexander. As a great soldier son, Alexander had been instilled many heroism and high adventure stories. He can reel off in the early lead, read Homer in the shelter of personality and lyrics. Whether in the house or in the battlefield, he had a pillow YiLiYaTe "with him to sleep. He led his Greek soldiers and defeated the Persian empire, strong and continue to crusade. Along the way, he and his army met with human body is similar, but what we know, hair, it is a monkey. They rode on large and those of the east, the elephant who had never seen defeated the monster. Of course, though, Alexander the great personality charm, many of his soldiers to fight for Alexander has faith, but for a long time, the journey of hard driving, the warriors who still alive and tired, they obviously very to return to his country and so on the roster appeared, the army also appeared a mutiny. One section, I is very impressive, when he determined to continue to advance in India, unwilling to part soldiers, one of the important general said a touching, they finally wish is only in them to the soldiers who died superempirical essence and meet them before the meeting, the wife and children. Alexander said: "yes, you're right, I, Ross, negligence. Should I send you back as soon as possible, all pensions from me to send, respected and wealthy, love, in the rest of you will be his wife and son of a hero, finally died peacefully. But your dreams, Ross, you, the simple, early in your child's life with Persia, with gold and silver in your pockets stuffed with you when you love, because it can destroy everything in the life of a man!" , kelat rose that touching words some long, here I will not lead to, but when I'm hearing his words, I was really touched by it and feel a mortal ordinary and true feelings, in my opinion, that he was not too. Then, Alexander the retort that enthusiasm, yes, Alexander and their pursuit of something different, he pursues the sun rays, the pursuit of great, so the life of ease, money and enjoy attractive for him, he defeated the Persian empire, Babylon the great wealth, costly court life and can't baffel him to continue the expedition.
Just after the movie's feelings, then some literatures on Alexander's expedition, some of the objective a detailed analysis. According to the data, Alexander expedition, he himself has said the Persian, and had ravaged sanctuary in Greece was assassinated Philip ii, the purpose is the expedition, revenge against the Persian stronger. But the specific analysis, find the reason for the expedition is just an excuse. Firstly, the assassination of the killer waves Philip ii, paulson and no relationship with the Persian empire. O Nebuchadnezzar, paulson wave is a young aristocrat, he and Philip ii, the generals have personal in Dallas. Whatever wave, is of Nebuchadnezzar's, but he SiYuan what action, really have no direct connection with the Persian empire. Alexander said he was assassinated in Persia, Philip ii, historical records on no. Secondly, from the assassination of Nebuchadnezzar, wave, paulson to Philip ii, so the action in advance of horses prepared assassination scene, it shows that he really otherwise conspiracy. Third, revenge is only according to Greek long-standing extremely extensive mental state, as to stimulate the greeks into the slogan of the Persian.
Anyway, I think it is worth affirmation, Alexander the great dream, in order to realize its can not wealth, enjoy thier rance and courage to explore the unknown.
2 Tim HeFei and about Alexander, RON
Alexander the great films, especially sexual orientation private life a lot dispute. In fact, he HeFei and ask the relationship, and I was at the movies process has been very puzzled, why history so great a character is gay? Believe that many people have the same doubts.However, when I accidentally see teacher site of excellent assignments exploring ancient Greek young titled "love", I feel like a life. For the love of the young this phenomenon from different aspects. First is the ancient greeks aesthetic idea. Ancient Greece is extremely attractive appearance and the worship of strong and handsome figure, in this respect, they don't care, as long as the male sex "golden hair, jiongjiongweishen eyes, ruddy complexion, strong muscle, broad shoulders." He must be able to attract others' eyes and love. Beautiful young completely meet greeks aesthetic standards and, in some cases, the young beauty of man can be less attractive girl. Secondly, the ancient Greek culture condition is the root of young love. The ancient culture and modern culture and the fundamental difference between the ancients to men, women, children in the man's eyes is only the mother and the family business managers. The ancient greeks regarded the spirit of man is the center of activities, they think that the girl was not what ecation, this kind of situation is caused by a woman because ecation condition, the cultural resources, and the spirit world of ancient Greek men spirit grades. This kind of social status can appear a situation: men and women together only flirting with youth, and can be found in the heart. They are likely to rationally between the dialogue lies not only in the young, beautiful, because they have more abundant knowledge and talent. Therefore, in ancient Greece appeared a modern difficult to understand customs: every man have attracted a boy or a young man, and in close daily life as his tutor, guardian and friends, also encouraged him to study all noble character. If any man have deceived than his little boy, will be considered not perform ties of a man, No one can get to a young man of friendship is a shame for. This kind of social and cultural customs in promoting cultural and ideological progress in a little deeper, to help build social moral standards have contribution. We can not surprised to find that most firmly hold the view that homosexuality is the most important and the most influential cultural elite of ancient Greece. At this point, even the spirit of love, Socrates also no exception.
In addition, a professor of the university of Oxford robin Ryan fox in the privacy of Alexander is explained. He said, Alexander has three wives, and his mistress, four grow up together, carry the HeFei partners have homosexual relations, and the one who Persian royal eunuch very close. The fox said, many of these ancient historians recorded the plot, compared with these records could be understatement. While these sparked controversy, because of different age has different view. Ancient Greece, polygamy and homosexuality is normal, Christian Europe, strict monogamy was established, homosexuality was considered evil, so, if we use today's morality to request more than 2,000 years ago, the ancients are serious distortion.
Want to use words to summarize the feeling after see: "bravely to pursue their dreams!"
