大学英语精读课堂话语分析

大学英语精读课堂话语分析

大学英语精读课堂话语分析摘要:课堂话语分析是对课堂教学过程进行客观的描述分析,该分析反映了师生在课堂中互动中的共同贡献。

大多数英语课堂研究一直集中在教师方面的因素,例如教师问题的类型、教师的话语量等。

在很大程度上忽视了教师与学生之间的互动交流。

随着功能语言学的发展,话语分析理论逐渐受到教育工作的重视和运用。

本文介绍了话语分析的内涵和理论,阐述了英语精读课堂师生话语模式,提问方式和老师的反馈分析,在此基础上提出了几条提高英语教学的建议。

关键词:英语精读教学;话语分析理论;研究一、话语分析定义1、话语分析的概念话语分析是则是只对句子更长的语言段所作的语言分析,主要目的是为了找出带有相似的语境的话语系列并确定其规律。

它包括语言形式、语言功能及书面文本的分析。

通过话语分析,我们可以判断出语言特点,即对不同文体、社会和文化因素的特点进行判断,有助于我们理解不同的文本和谈话类型。

书面文本话语分析,指对话题的发展以及句子的连贯性进行的研究。

2、在教学中使用话语分析的优点在教学中使用话语分析的优点表现以下两个方面:(1)简化了语法结构的分析。

学生接触到英语句子的时候,首先是分析句子的语法结构,似乎不了解句子结构就无法理解句子的含义。

我们当然反对这种英语学习方式。

如何在教学过程中使用话语分析法,会使语言分析更加简洁。

对话语内部结构的分析,强调了意义的完整性,同时也表明各语句在体现整个话语意义中的作用以及各话语之间的关系,这样分析就避免了以往句子分析造成的许多不良影响。

(2)话语分析增强学生的交流能力。

话语分析的目的,就是使学生在众多的信息中抓住主要信息,使交流顺利进行。

以往学生能够分析单个句子,但对于一段文字则无法理解,其主要原因就是没从句子中获得本应该获得的信息量,没从交际的角度理解句子,从而无法整理出整个语段的内容。

话语分析是超越句子层次的更高层次的分析方法,这种方法更切合语言的实际运用,它是以说话者和听话者双方的交流成功为最终目的。

英语专业精读教学中学生赏析能力的培养——以“A Dill Pickle”为例

英语专业精读教学中学生赏析能力的培养——以“A Dill Pickle”为例

422020年36期总第528期ENGLISH ON CAMPUS英语专业精读教学中学生赏析能力的培养——以“A Dill Pickle”为例文/刘少仙精读教学在本科英语教学中的核心地位毋庸置疑,其中心任务是提升学生的阅读能力,即:理解能力,赏析能力和应用能力。

赏析能力要求学生理解文章、努力提高欣赏水平,“学会细细品味文章的思想美、修辞美、结构美、逻辑美、音韵美。

了解不同的题材、作家、时代、观点、文体和风格,关切人世间各种问题,倾听过去各种优秀人物的真知灼见”。

只有学生有了一定的赏析能力,他们才能从赏析的视角去理解原文、剖析原文、挖掘原文的言下之意和言外之意、体会文章的主题美、思想美和语言美。

赏析能力的培养如此重要,笔者却无法在知网中找到与在精读教学中培养英语专业本科生赏析能力直接相关的论文。

因此,本论文尝试以杨立明主编的《现代大学英语精读》课文“A Dill Pickle”(《一块莳萝泡菜》)为例,从英语专业精读教学的角度出发,探究如何在精读教学中培养学生的赏析能力,以期填补这一研究上的空白。

一、“课文标题”赏析“居文之首,勾文之要”是对标题在文中特殊作用的概括。

标题是一篇文章的点睛之处,是作者的神来之笔。

大凡名篇佳作都有一个好标题,它们能够成功拨动读者心弦、激发读者的阅读兴趣、引发读者的遐思。

它们或揭示中心思想、或概括主要内容、或暗示行文线索、或奠定文章基调、或明确描写对象、或交代故事发生的环境、或设置悬吸引读者……在进行英语专业的精读教学时,对文章标题美的赏析必不可少。

以“A Dill Pickle”为例。

它讲述的是女主人公Vera六年后偶遇前男友,两人坐在餐厅,回忆从前的一些往事。

男人讲述了他去俄罗斯旅行的经历,伏尔加河上的生活是那么的“随意、自由、无拘无束”,当他们在黑海边野餐时,一位友好的马车夫走过来对他们说:“来一块莳萝泡菜吧!”感受敏锐细腻的Vera 立刻在脑海里勾勒出一幅美好的画面:“尽管她不敢肯定莳萝泡菜是何物,但仿佛看到泛绿的瓶子里有一个鹦鹉嘴一样的红辣椒”。

大学英语第三册精读所学Paraphrase详解

大学英语第三册精读所学Paraphrase详解

L11.…identity is determined by genetic endowment, shaped by environment, and influence bychance events. (para.2)Who we are is determined by three things: first, our genes, or what our parents have given us, our legacy; second, environment, and third, luck or opportunities.2.First, there is functional independence, which involves the capability of individuals to takecare of practical and personal affairs, such as handling finances, choosing their own wardrobes, and determining their daily agenda. (para.4)First, there is the independence in handling everyday life situations, which involves the ability to solve practical problems, such as how to spend money wisely, choosing their own clothes and determining what they are going to do every day.3.Fourth is freedom from “excessive guilt, anxiety, mistrust, responsibility, inhibition,resentment, and anger in relation to the mother and father.” (para.4)Children often feel very guilty in relation to their parents because they think they have done something wrong; they are also anxious because they are eager to please their parents; they sometimes fell unhappy because they think that their parent have not been fair to them; they are responsible to their parents for everything they do; they are always afraid of not saying the right thing or not behaving properly; all these may make them angry with their parents or make them feel resentful. These feelings reflect their emotional dependence on their parents.When they grow up, they usually strive for the freedom from such dependence.L21.It was a wonder to me they’d want to be seen with such a windbag. (para.6)It was surprising to me that they would spend time together with a person who talked too much like my father, yet they seemed to like it.2.An orderly riding by had told him, because the orderly knew how thick he was with Grant.(para.19)An orderly who arrived riding on a horse had told him about the news, because the orderly knew that he was a close friend of Grant’s.3.“Oh,” she said, “it’s all right. Life is never dull when my man is about.” (para.23)My mother said she never felt that life was boring when her husband was around.4.For the first time I knew that I was the son of my father. He was a story teller as I was to be.(para.41)He was a story teller. That was what I was to become later.L31.And today, at 29, he has discovered the power of another good idea that has helped him rise injust a few years from teen to tycoon. (para.4)And when he was 29 now, he has found the power of another idea that has enabled him to grow from a teenager to a rich and powerful person in computer industry.2.… he thought it might be a good idea to get high school out of the way. (para.6)…he thought it might be a good idea to finish his high school education as quickly as possible.3.Newlyweds, he figured, were the best prospects, … (para.8)He believed that the newly married people are the most likely customers.4.He also knew that holding excess inventory was costly. So he bought dealers’ surplus stock atcost. (para.11)He also knew that it was expensive to keep more products than necessary. So he bought these products of the dealer’s at the price they head bought them.5.Dell placed local advertisements offering his customized computers at 15 percent off retailprice. (para.11)Dell put advertisements in the local media and was ready to sell specially designed and made computers at a price which was 15 percent lower than the market price.6.It was time to come to grips with the magnitude of what he had created. (para.14)It was time for him to seriously deal with the size of the computer business he had created. 7.Dell still specialized in direct marketing of IBM PCs to which he added custom features.(para.22)Dell still sold IBM personal computers to which he had added special properties required by people.L71.Then the two men exchanged a sharp glance and immediately Mr. Crowther continued hisreading, while Mr. Harraby-Ribston resumed his seat and sat for a while puffing a little and with a heightened color as a result of his exertion.Then the two men looked at each other briefly and severely and immediately Mr. Crowther went on with his reading, while Mr. Harraby-Ribston went back to his seat, sat down again breathing quickly, because he had made such an effort to throw the suitcase out of the window.2.He was by nature a sociable, chatty man and he had reckoned that his action would infalliblyproduce conversation. (para.1)He was the kind of man who likes to talk and enjoys company, and had guessed that what he did would invariably start a conversation.3.His companion might conclude that the suitcase contained a corpse, in which even he wouldperhaps inform the police when they reached their destination and all sorts of troublesome and humiliating enquires would follow. (para.1)His companion might get a conclusion that there was a corps in the suitcase. In case of that, perhaps his companion would inform the police when the train arrived at the destination and then the policemen might ask him some embarrassing and shameful questions.4.Such were the thoughts that buzzed round Mr. Harraby-Ribston, robbing him of thesatisfaction and refreshment that were his due. (para.1)These thoughts were moving around quickly in Mr. Harraby-Ribston’s mind, and they took away his hope that his action would give him an interesting conversation, which he thought he deserved.5.For all his appearance of indifference, the sight of a well-to-do gentleman pitching a suitcasefrom the window of a moving train has surprised him very much. (para.2)Although he pretended to be indifferent, he was very much surprised when he saw a rich gentleman throwing a suitcase form the window of a moving train.6.The fellow was obviously counting on him for violent reaction and so Mr. Crowther made apoint of not reacting. (para.2)That chap was clearly expecting him to react violently, and therefore Mr. Crowther deliberately decided no to react, because he didn’t want to give that man this satisfaction.7.But Mr. Harraby-Ribston had reached a point at which he must either speak or burst and,preferring the former alternative, he said: “Excuse me, sir, but I must say, you surprise me.”But Mr. Harraby-Ribston could no longer remain quiet. He had to speak, or he would burst.As he naturally would rather speak than burst, he said: “Excuse me, sir, but I must say, you surprise me.”8.Clothes, hairbrushes and so on all have their associations, and associations are precisely whatI want to be rid of. (para.23)Clothes, hairbrushes and so on are all somewhat related to my marriage and will bring back memories, which I want to bury forever.9.“Quiet! Quiet! Said Mr. Harraby-Ribston, who, by now, was worked up to a dangerous pitchof excitement. (para.45)“Yes, that’s quite true!”said Mr. Harraby-Ribston, who, by now, couldn’t control his excitement at all.L81.There are no longer individuals, just victims in groups. (para.1)Human beings have no free will, they are all victims of these external causes as a group.2.As if one’s humanness were a blueprint for instinctive, reflexive reaction to situations, like therest of the animal kingdom. (para.2)As if the fact we human were a kind of detailed plan which determines how we react to situation. This reaction is instinctive and natural just like with all animals, insects and birds. 3.The 3 C’s are Character, Courage, and Conscience, without which we are merely gigantic antsinstinctively filling out biologically determined destiny. (para.4)The 3C’s are Character, Courage, and Conscience, without these qualities, we cease to be human and will be just like big ants which live out their lives in a way that is determined by their natural instincts.4.Merely sustaining life is a vegetable state. (para.17)Only managing to live in a vegetable state.5.Thoroughly living life requires initiative, risk-taking, sustained action against odds,sacrificing for ideals and for others, leaps of faith. (para.17)If you want to live a good and energetic life, you need the ability to make decisions and take action without waiting for someone to tell you what to do; you should be brave enough to take risks; you should take continued action against difficulties; you should be ready to lose life for ideals and you should have an instance of accepting or trusting in something that cannot be readily seen or trusted.6.Courage is to life what broth is to soup. (para.18)Courage is as important to life as broth is to soup.7.… and so we go through verbal and psychological contortions of blame and rationalizations.(para.21)In order to be excused, we often try hard to twist things and put the blame on others or try to justify our actions in various ways in our speaking as well as in our thinking.8.In this regard, pleasure is an event; happiness is a process. Pleasure is an end point; happinessis the journey. Pleasure is material; happiness is spiritual. Pleasure is self-involved; happiness is outer- and other-involved. (para.26)Relating to what we have mentioned, pleasure is something that just happens; happiness is a series of things that involved. Pleasure is a finishing point; happiness is a long process.Pleasure is something related to the real world and physical objects; happiness is something related to your spirit. Pleasure is something related to yourself; happiness is something related to others and the world.L101.He had opened his eyes with the sun at dawn, scratched, done his business like a dog at theroadside, … (para.1)He had opened his eyes with the sun at dawn, scratched, emptied his bowels like a dog at the roadside, …2.Live without conventions, which are artificial and false; escape complexities andextravagances; … (para.4)If you break away from the unnatural conventions, avoid complex lives and things that are not necessary, you will enjoy a true, free life.3.They posses him. He is their slave. In order to procure a quantity of false, perishable goods hehas sold the only true, lasting good, his own independence. (para.4)They control him. He depends on them. In order to get a certain amount of material properties which actually have no value and will not last, he has been controlled by these things and ahs given away his own independence which is the only thing that is true and can last.4.His life’s aim was clear to him: it was “to restamp the currency”: to take the clean metal ofhuman life, to erase the old false conventional markings, and to imprint it with its true values.(para.5)He had a clear aim in life. He held that human life is like clean metal but is marked with false values and beliefs. He wanted to wipe out the false markings and print true values on it.5.He was the man of the hour, of the century; … (para.13)He was the most important and powerful person at the moment and in the century; …L111.Considering the whole span of earthly time, the opposite effect, in which life actuallymodifies its surroundings, has been relatively slight. (para.10)When we think of the long history of life on earth, the degree living things affect their environment has been insignificant as compared with the effect of the environment on plant and animals life.2.In this now universal contamination of the environment, chemicals are the sinister partners ofradiation in changing the very nature of the world. (para.11)The chemical pollution can now be seen everywhere. The chemicals, together with radiation both of which are considered bad and evil, are just destroying the natural world.3.Radiation is now the unnatural creation of man’s tampering with the atom. The chemicals arethe synthetic creations of man’s inventive mind, having no counterparts in nature. (para.13) Human beings are interfering with the structure of atoms. And one of its result is radiation which is totally unnatural. Also, human minds are creative. Chemicals are one of their artificial creations. There is no corresponding substance in nature.4.And even this, were it by some miracle possible, would be futile. (para.14)It would take some magic power to make living things adjust to these chemicals in the life of generations. Even if this were possible, it would be useless.5.These chemicals are now applied almost universally to farms, gardens, forests, and homes, …to still the song of birds and the leaping of fish, to coat the leaves with a deadly film. (para.16) The insecticides are used without any discrimination in any kind of land: farms, gardens, forests, and homes. They make birds unable to sing and fish unable to leap, and cover the leaves with a thin layer of fatal substance.6.They should not be called “insecticides,” but “biocides.” (para.16)They are not killers of insects, but rather, killers of organisms.7.We have subjected enormous numbers of people to contact with these poisons, without theirconsent and often without their knowledge. (para.25)By spraying insecticides on grains, vegetables and fruits, we have caused large numbers of people to absorb harmful chemicals without asking whether they would like to do so and often without letting them knowing it.L131)Through all this she lay in bed but moved across time, traveling among the dead decades witha speed and ease beyond the gift of physical science. (para.1)Every time she did this she was lying in her bed, but she let her mind wonder free through time, traveling among the decades that were past and gone very quickly, so quickly and easily that no physical science would be able to do it.2)“If they don’t like it, that’s too bad, … because that’s the way I am.” (para.13)“If they don’t like it, that’s too bad, but there is nothing I can do about it because that is my habit.”3)Determined to speak her mind, determined to have her way, determined to bend those whoopposed her. (para.14)She was determined to tell what she thought, determined to do what she wanted to, determined to convince those who disagree with her.4)… victory was not to the lazy, the timid, the drugstore cowboy, the mush-mouth afraid to tellpeople exactly what was on his mind. (para.15)… victory did not belong to those who didn’t want to work hard, who lacked self-confidence and who idled their lives away. People who liked talking in a way no one could understand were afraid to tell the truth.5)… she seemed to have broken chains that imprisoned her in a life she had come to hate and toreturn to a time inhabited by people who loved her … (para.38)…she seemed to have won new freedom and escaped from a life which made her feel restricted and would now be able to go back to the times when she was younger, much needed and loved.6)This one was written out of a childish faith in the eternal strength of parents, a naïve beliefthat age and wear could be overcome by an effort of will, that all she needed was a good pep talk to recharge a flagging spirit. (para.39)I wrote the letter because I had a naïve belief that parents were strong for ever, that theywould be able to succeed in dealing with such problems as aging and reduction in physical strength with an effort of determination and that all my mother needed now was an encouraging talk to give back her strength and energy.7)These hopeless end-of-the-line visits …made me wish I had not thrown off my own past socarelessly. …children ought to know that life is a braided cord of humanity stretching upfrom time long gone, and that it cannot be defined by the span of a single journey from diaper to shroud. (para.55)Those last visits (They were hopeless because they did not mean anything to my mother any more. She was not going to recover. And she did not even know I was there.) made me wish I had valued my past more, and had paid more attention to the world she represented …Children ought to know what made them what they are today, to know that life is a continuous process. It is like a human cord made of may people starting from a long time past continuing to the present day, and it cannot be separated or understood jus tby one person’s life. We should all cherish our roots, our heritage.。

大学英语精读1第三版课文英汉对照分析解析

大学英语精读1第三版课文英汉对照分析解析

UNIT 1As we are at the start of the course, this seems a good moment to offer some advice on how to make the task of learning English easier.课程开始之际,就如何使学习英语的任务更容易提出一些建议似乎正当其时。

Some Strategies for Learning EnglishLearning English is by no means easy. It takes great diligence and prolonged effort.学习英语绝非易事。

它需要刻苦和长期努力。

Nevertheless, while you cannot expect to gain a good command of English without sustained hard work, there are various helpful learning strategies you can employ to make the task easier. Here are some of them.虽然不经过持续的刻苦努力便不能期望精通英语,然而还是有各种有用的学习策略可以用来使这一任务变得容易一些。

以下便是其中的几种。

1. Do not treat all new words in exactly the same way. Have you ever complained about your memory because you find it simply impossible to memorize all the new words you are learning? But, in fact, it is not your memory that is at fault. If you cram your head with too many new words at a time, some of them are bound to be crowded out. What you need to do is to deal with new words in different ways according to how frequently they occur in everyday use. While active words demand constant practice and useful words must be committed to memory, words that do not often occur in everyday situations require just a nodding acquaintance. You will find concentrating on active and useful words the most effective route to enlarging your vocabulary.1. 不要以完全同样的方式对待所有的生词。

Four Chinese women, who have just arrived in the United States and who are drawn together by the shadow of their past—meet in San Francisco to play mah-jongg, eat dim sum and tell stories. They call their gatherings the Joy Luck Club. While they place high hopes on their daughters, the youger generation think of themselves as Americans and resist their mothers’ attempts to change them into obedient Chinese daughters. Only after they have grown up and become more mature do they realize that the legacy left by their mothers is an important part of their lives, too.

As the tests got more and more difficult, the daughter lost heart. She decided that she would not let her mother change her. This change of attitudes would lead to the gradual development of the conflict.Part iv (paras 21—28) while watching a Chinese girl playing the piano on an Ed Sullivan Show, a new idea flashed into the mother’s head.

How ever, groups of people for various reasons oppose globalization and point to the negative effects of globalization.

Background information:V irginia W oolf is generally regarded as one of the greatest writers of modernism as w ell as one of the pioneers of women’s liberat ion from patriarchy. She is known for her experimentation and innovation in novel writing. In her novel, emphasis is on the psychological realm of her characters and the moment-by-moment experience of living, which are depicted by the techniques of interior monologue and stream of consciousness. In this essay, V irginia W oolf gives a clear and convincing presentation of the obstacles facing prof essional women.Part II. Detailed study of the textPart III. General analysis of the textPara 1: In the profession of literature, the author finds that there are f ew er experiences peculiar to women than in other profession because many women writers bef ore her have made the road smooth.Para 2: the author responds to the host’s suggestion that she should tell th e audience something about her own professional experiences. So she now tells her own story –how she became a book review er when she was a girl.Para 3.the speaker focuses on the first obstacle to becoming a prof essional women writer. She uses a figure of speech ―killing the Angel in the House‖ in describing her determination to get rid of the conventional role of women in her writing.Para 4. after the Angel was dead, the question which remains to be answ ered is ―what is a woman?‖ it is a transitional li nk between the quthor’s first and second experience.Paragraph 5. In this paragraph the author talks about her second experience in her prof ession of literature. As a novelist, she wished to remain "as unconscious as possible" so that nothing might disturb or disquiet the imagination. But she was faced with the conflict betw een her own approach to art and the conventional approach expected of her by male critics. She believed that sex-consciousness was a great hindrance to women's writing. To illustrate this point, she employs a second figure of speech, "the image of a fisherman lying sunk in dreams on the verge of a deep lake."Para 6. This paragraph sums up the author's tw o experiences, pointing out that the second obstacle is more difficult to overcome than the first. W omen have many prejudices to overcome in the profession of literature and especially in new prof essions that women are entering.Para.7.

General introduction:The author deals with recent developments in the search for alien organisms. He discusses various arguments about alien civilization. He does not think that such belief and search is irrational or even crazy. He writes that most people with such belief ―operate from the same instinct, which is to know the truth about the universe‖. At the same time he maintains a scientific attitude, pointing out that although there are many persuasive arguments, there is still no hard evidence to prove the existe nce of alien life. Y et he does not stop there. He further points out that since the world we live in—the only inhabitable world in the universe so far—is still far from perfect, people in the world need to direct more energy to making it better.

From this opening paragraph we readers can learn a number of important things:(l) By saying "It goes a long way back, some twenty years," the author tells us that the story took place in the past.(2) The "I' here is the narrator, not the author, of the story, and the author is using the first-person narration in telling the story. As w e read On, w e will find this narrator is also the main character, the protagonist, of the story.(3) W ords like "I was looking for myself" and "I am nobody but myself" point out the central theme of the novel--searching for self-identity.Para. 2 This paragraph tells us a bit about the historical background against place. It also introduces a new character--the narrator's grandfather. On his deathbed, he said something that alarmed and puzzled the whole family.Para 3 This paragraph is about the tremendous effect of the grandfather's words upon the narrator, Those words became a constant puzzle for him. As the old man said these w ords ironically, the boy couldn't understand him. Although the grandfather did not appear in the battle royal scene or anylife.Para 4 It tells us about the setting of the battle royal. The narrator was to give his speech at a smoker in a leading hotel in the town. The time is round 1950, the place is a hotel in a Southern town, and the occasion is a gathering of the leading white men of the town.

Instead of giving the money the boys w ere supposed to get for their performance, the white men made fun of them by making them scramble for the money on an electrified rug. This part adds to the general chaos of the whole scene.Para 47--90 They form the last subsection of the whole battle royal incident. In this part the narrator finally got his chance to deliver his w ell-prepared speech. How ever, in the middle of his speech, he made a mistake, but everything w ent w ell in the end and he was given an award--a scholarship for college.Para. 91—94 They bring the story to a final end.

He moves as comfortably among sentences and paragraphs as among equations.Part II. Detailed study of the text:Part III. Questions about the article1. Oppenteimer is called ― Father of the Atomic Bomb‖ and had been in charge of the Los Alamas nuclear laboratory for many years. Y et the author considers him as merely very good. Do you think the author is right and fair in relegating Oppenheimer to the merely very good?2. Do you think it is right to say to be highly focused or not is the cause separating the great ones from the merely very good? What is your view?3. How does the author manage to bring the people he wants to compare into the article?O ppenheimer’s anecdote: Oppenheimer and dirac meetingGottingen, talking about poetry and physicsHis decision to go to the conferenceSpender’s being at the conf erence—Spende r’s obsession with Auden—great versus merely very good.4.How does the author develop the article?He uses the 1981 conference as the benchmark and goes back to earlier times and in the last two paragraphs returns the scene to the time of writing. This technique of montage is used largely in cinema.For example:The 1981 conference and the author’s indecision—(flashback to 1925—1927) earlier life of Oppenheimer and his relations with Dirac—(back to 1981) the author’s decision: Spender and Auden—(flashback)Spender and Oppenheimer(1956)—(1958)Oppenheimer, Dirac and the author—(back to 1981) meeting with Spender—(bringing the scene to 1996) concluding remarks.Lesson NineThe W ay to Rainy MountainT eaching aims: 1. fully understand the article2. grasp the rhetorical device in the textT eaching difficulties: how to identify the rhetorical device in the sentence and understand theimplication for some sentencesTime distribution: eight periodsT eaching method: students-centeredT eaching procedures:Part I. About the AuthorN. Scott Momaday was born in Lawton, Oklahoma in 1934. Momaday belongs to a generation of American Indians born when most tribal communities had long ceased to exist as vital social organizations. His Kiowa ancestors shared with other Plains Indians the horrors of disease, military def eat, and cultural and religious deprivation in the 19th century. Their only chance of survival was to adapt themselves to new circumstances. Momaday’s grandfather, for example, adjusted to changing conditions by taking up farming, a decision pressed upon him by the General Allotment Act of 1887.Part II. Detailed study of the textPart III. The analysis of the textPara 1. the opening paragraph of the essay is a lyrical description of the author’s ancestral land, which plays a key role in his exploration of his Kiowa identity.Para 2. the author explains his purpose of his visit to Rainy Mountain: to be at his grandmother’s grave.Para 3. it sums up the history of the Kiowas as a Plains Native culture—the golden time and thedecline in their history.Para 4. it is about how the Kiowas migrated from w estern Montana and how the migration transformed the Kiowas.Para 5. the author returns to his grandmother again. Since she is the immediate reason for him to come to Rainy Mountain, she is the link betw een the author and his ancestors.Para 6. The Kiowas felt a sense of confinement in Y ellow stone, Montana.Para 7. this paragraph is a depiction of the landscape which they came upon when they got out of the highlands in Montana.Para 8. in this para the author describes Devil’s T ow er and tells the Kiowas’s legend about it.Para 9. the author tells about the last days of the Sun Dance culture by using his grandmother as a witness.Para 10. for the first time, the author concentrates only on his grandmother’s story rather than mixing it with the history of the whole Kiowa tribe. Also for the first time, the author shifts the focus of depicting the lanscape to describing a person—his grandmother Aho as an old woman.Para 11—12 paragraph 11 is about the old houses at Rainy Mountain, which the author’s grandmother and other Kiowas used to live in, but which are now empty. This paragraph serves as a transition betw een the depiction of Grandma Aho and the reunion at her house.Para 11 and 12 describe the reunions that were once held at the grandmother’s house when the author was a child. W e can see the author accepts change and loss as facts of life. He neither denies nor defies them. Imagination helps him strike a balance betw een them. So, after depicting his dead grandmother’s old house, he brings to lif e the joy and activity that once filled it. As a child Momaday took part in those events. By re-creating those scenes, he reminds himself of who he is.Part IV. Complete the exercise of the text。
