Here is the introduction to the writer, Jules Verne.
Fact File
Jules Verne (1828-1905), a French novelist, was called the “Father of Science Fiction”. He wrote a widely popular series of science fiction, including Journey to the Centre of the Earth (1864), 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (1870), and Around the World in Eighty Days (1873).
Watch and read the beginning of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and learn about the setting.
Scan the first two paragraphs and look for clues that tell the setting.
It takes place on a boat in the ocean.
Clues include “boat” in line 3, “swimming towards the boat” in line 7 and “my mouth filled with water” in line 10.
Where does the story take place
Read the extract and find out what happened to “I”, the professor in the story.
The professor fell from the boat into the ocean. He was saved by Conseil, but then after some time, he sank into the ocean and hit a submarine. The door to the submarine opened, and he was taken inside.

List the names of the main characters and indicate their relationships.
the professor
Conseil, the professor’s assistant
Ned (the Canadian), a sailor with the professor

1. What physical problems did the professor suffer after he
fell into the sea
When he fell into the sea, the professor couldn’t breathe, and his mouth filled with water. Later he became terribly tired and cold.
Pair Work. Discuss the questions with your partner and share your answers.

2. What do you think the “creature” is Find evidence from the extract.
The creature is probably a submarine because it is made of steel and it has people inside. The professor found out it was “smooth, polished”, “produced a sound of metal” and “made of metal plates”.
3. What social class do you think the professor and Conseil belong to Underline the expressions that indicate their social status.
The professor and Conseil probably belong to different social classes. Conseil might be the servant of the professor because of the following reasons: (1) he never called the professor his title of his name, but called him master, (2) he talked to the professor in a very polite and humble way, e.g. “If master would be so good as to hold onto my shoulder”, (3) he tried his best to serve the professor even with his life.
4. What kind of person is Conseil Find evidence from the extract to support your judgement.
Conseil seems to be a kind and loyal person because Conseil swears he will drown before he leaves the professor.
本文節(jié)選自法國作家Jules Verne的長篇小說《海底兩萬里》。文學(xué)作品有其獨(dú)特的寫作方法。
文學(xué)語篇通常會運(yùn)用生動(dòng)形象的語言來描寫人物以及與人物有聯(lián)系的周圍壞境、客觀事件，如利用象聲詞、色彩詞等，從視覺、聽覺、觸覺等多角度對人或物的聲音、色彩、形狀等進(jìn)行描寫。
本文最后一段對潛艇的描寫，分別從觸覺（hard, solid, smooth）、視覺（polished）、聽覺（a sound of metal）這三個(gè)角度展開。
文學(xué)語篇中常常會使用各種修辭手法，使語言更加形象。
采用了排比句式，表現(xiàn)了“我”的艱難處境。
采用了比喻，將未知的潛艇比作了鯨魚。
文學(xué)語篇中常常會出現(xiàn)變異現(xiàn)象，即對語言常規(guī)的有意偏離或違背，如創(chuàng)造或合成新詞、改變單詞拼寫、使用沖突的詞語搭配、使用過于復(fù)雜的或不合規(guī)則的語法結(jié)構(gòu)等。如課文中出現(xiàn)的Then, I know not why, the thought of the strange, terrible animal came into my head for the first time! But that voice! 使用了不合規(guī)則的語法結(jié)構(gòu)。
