Teaching Procedures
1. Preparation (Period 1&2)
1.1 What is love? What kind of love impresses you most and why?
Suggested Examples:
Love makes the world go round.
Love is what makes you smile when you’re tired.
Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it every day.
Love is a universal and permanent topic. Whether it is a mother’s nurturing love for her child, a son’s loyal love for his father, the love between husband and wife, or the love between friends, love is a universal emotion that expresses itself in every culture. To love is to be human. To need love is also to be human. Children, for example, need loving care in order to be emotionally healthy.
Usually love is a deep feeling of fondness, affection and friendship that grows between two
people. Romantic love usually begins as passion and evolves with time to a more lasting sense of attachment. Many of the famous romantic love stories in various cultures end in the tragedies of death or betrayal. The loss of love is a favorite musical theme and the subject of countless stories, operas, songs, and ballads.
Love is actually more than the romantic emotion between a man and a woman; it has a wide sense of meaning. It may include our love for our family, love of our hometown, old school, former classmates, love of life, animals and nature and so on.
Love plays an important part in our life. It is love that gives us courage to overcome difficulties when we are in trouble, while the loss of love may make one broken-hearted. Suggested Examples:
Motherly love impresses me most, because she is always very kind to me, unlike my father who will scold me or slap me if I make mistakes or if I am naughty. My mother is an ordinary-looking woman, but in my eyes she is very beautiful. She is very hard-working and does almost all the housework. When I was working for the entrance examinations, she was very considerate and never let me do any housework. When I was hungry at night, she would fix a snack for me. She is a good cook. It’s a pity that I am not able to have what she cooks because I am far away from home now.
1.2 What is the difference between fatherly love and motherly love according to Enrich comments?
Erich Fromm’s Statements:
Motherly love by its nature is unconditional. Mother loves the newborn infant because it is her child, not because the child has fulfilled any specific condition, or lived up to any expectation. Fatherly love is conditional love. Its principle is ―I love you because you fulfill my expectations, because you do your duty, because you are like me ‖
It is true that motherly love is unconditional. I believe what I’ve got from my mother is the deepest love I’ve ever received. (When I was at home, mother took good care of me…/ celebrate my birthdays/ woke me up and prepared breakfast/ Now I am away from home, she calls me every two or three days…) It seems that my life is much more important than hers.
As for fatherly love, I am not sure if his love is conditional, but obviously it’s different fro m mother’s love. Father also loves me very much (care about education, future, not daily life; help in study and progress…) .
Can you tell the difference between them according to your personal experiences?
I think there’s something in his statements, although it is hard for me to identify whose love is fatherly and whose love is motherly in the case of my parents. Unlike most mothers in the world, my mother is strict, concerned with study and progress, angry when I cover up any of my wrongdoings…
On the other hand, my father has been very kind to me. He knows my needs, comforts me after my mother criticizes me, brings me toys, books, takes me to look around during holidays (I)
enjoy his company very much, feeling secure and relaxed. That is why I often think I have the best father in the world.
How do you feel when you walk on the street and see a disabled person?
I feel pity towards those who are disabled. I wonder how they can manage in their daily life and whether they have a job. I feel lucky that I am not disabled.
Yes. My aunt is deaf and dumb. She has been like this since her childhood. My grandmother said that she became deaf because of taking the wrong medicine. She is now more than fifty years old and she has never been married. She was very kind to me. In fact it was she who brought me up. She often felt it unfair because she couldn’t hear. But she is very intelligent, and she is good at sewing. She sometimes kidded me with gestures that she wanted to cut off her ears because they couldn’t wo rk.
Sayings and Proverbs
If you have it [love], you don't need to have anything else. If you don't have it, it doesn't matter much what else you do have. —Sir James M. Barrie
Every man is a poet when he is in love.
Love me, love my dog.
Understand the major details of the text
1) How did the writer feel to be seen with his father when he was young? Why?
He felt embarrassed to be seen with his father, because his father was severely crippled and very short.
2) How and why does the son’s attitude change?
The son realized that it was his father who taught him many things such as how to have a good heart. He knew that having a good heart was more important than having a good appearance. Especially after his father died, he felt it more intensely that it was his father who guided him in his life.
4) Why do you think people start at the father and the son?
Generally speaking, people tend to stare at persons who are extremely unusual, say, the charmingly beautiful ones, the fairly ugly ones and the rather disabled ones. Since the father was short, severely crippled, and when they walked along the street, the father leaned on his son for balance, it is not strange for the father and the son to be the center of the attention.
5) What do you think a “good heart” is ?
To my knowledge, a ―good heart‖ refers to the good nature of a person, which involves the aspects as follows: To begin with, he is kind with the people around him, thinking as much of others as of himself. Besides, he is honest in dealing with any affairs. He has a strong sense of what is right and wrong. And best of all, he is ready to help when someone is in trouble or in need of his help.
6) What is the difference between how the son felt about his father as a youth and how he feels many years later?
We can use two adjectives---shamed and sorry to illustrate the son’s feelings about his father in different phases of his life. When he was growing up, he was embarrassed/shamed to be seen with his father. He tended to judge the father by appearance s or physical conditions and others’ staring. With the passage of time, especially after the father’s departure, however, he came to learn that his father had a good heart for him to lean on. Now he feels terribly sorry for his past feelings about his father, but there is no chance to make up for it.
7)What do you think makes a good heart
Useful Words and Phrases:kindness, endurance, hard-work, be satisfied with, patience, warm-heartedness
Sample: I think there are many things to make a good heart. They are: kindness to others,
endurance (忍耐力), hard-work, never hurting (伤害) others, being satisfied with life, patience, etc.
8)What did you learn from this article about the relationship between the father and the son Useful Words and Phrases:understand, disability, be proud of, be ashamed of, stare at, deep in one's heart, learn a lot
Sample: The father knew his disability (残疾) stood in the way between him and his son. That's why he said to his son: "You set the pace. I'll try to adjust to you." The son was young, so he was ashamed of his father because other people stared at them. But deep in their hearts they loved each other. The father was proud of his son, and the son learned a lot from his father.
9)How and why does the son's attitude change
Useful Words and Phrases :realize, a good heart, a good appearance, feel intensely, guide one's life
Sample: The son realized that it was his father who taught him many things such as how to have a good heart. He knew that having a good heart was more important than having a good appearance. Especially after his father died, he felt it more intensely (强烈地) that it was his father who guided him in his life.
10)If you were the son, how would you feel towards the father
Useful Words and Phrases:Embarrassed, be proud of, bring up, disability, look down upon, let alone
Sample: If I were the son, I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with him by others. I could be proud of my father no matter how he looked because it was he who gave me life and brought me up (抚养,教育). His disability was not his own choice. He was disabled, which was hard enough for him. How could the others look down upon him, let alone his son (更不用说,别说)

Summary of the Passage
This story tells of the love between a father and a son, describing how the son changed his attitude towards his father. At first, the son was ashamed to be seen walking with his father who was short and crippled and needed the son’s help for keeping his balance. The fat her, however, had a strong will and, almost never missed a day for work whether he was sick or the weather was nasty, although his office was far from his home. Crippled as he was, the father tried to participate in some activities in some way. What surprised the son most was that the father would endure indignity and stress without complaint. Therefore, the son changed his attitude towards his father, from whom the son learned to heave a good heart. The son felt that it was not his father who needed his he lp for keeping his balance, instead, he himself needed his father’s aid for keeping his balance in life.
Detailed explanation
课文赏析
作者通过对父亲的行为描写突出了父亲的优秀品质,即父亲拥有一颗善良的心.通过描写儿子由年幼到长大成人的心理过程的转变,体现了父亲的善良之心对作者的影响以及作者的感激之情.文中体现作者态度的转变的词汇有:embarrassed, ashamed, unwanted attention, impatient →sorry, unworthy, regretted.作者对这个问题认识的转变说明他成熟了.过去父亲出门要他搀扶,因此是健康的他支撑着父亲.现在父亲已去世多年,他十分后悔过去对父亲的不理解,并深切体会:"when I complain about trifles, when I am envious of another's good fortune, when I don't have a good heart", 支撑着他的正是父亲的美好心灵.
