Этот видеофрагмент всегда идет у нас на занятиях на ура). Замечательный сюжет для тренировки топика 'law and order'. Делюсь своими практическими наработками, видео и подробным скриптом.
Затравка
Для 'затравки' и разжигания интереса студентов предлагаю просмотреть сюжет без звука. А далее обсудить, что происходит на экране. Кто является подсудимым, пострадавшим. В чем заключается судебное дело и т.д.
До просмотра
Далее поработаем с лексикой, чтобы облегчить понимание видеофрагмента. Из скрипта к видео я выбрала необходимый тематический словарь и устойчивые выражения.
Задания во время просмотра
Вот теперь самое время посмотреть сюжет со звуком и насладиться игрой актеров. Но при этом не забываем выполнять задания.
Второй раз сюжет можно просмотреть с опорой на скрипт (в конце статьи). Это поможет ликвидировать пробелы в понимании речи на слух, закрепить новые слова в написании и звучании.
Дискуссия
После такого видеоролика просто невозможно не обсудить и поделиться впечатлениями, правда? А вот и задания на дискуссию.
Скрипт видеофрагмента
A dark street, a stormy night, two desperate men struggle. One man is taken to the hospital, the other one goes to jail. The prosecutor wants you to believe this is an open and shut case. A poor man brutally victimized. Well, for once I agree with the prosecutor. This is an open and shut case. But the true victim is my client. Yes, you heard me right. Put yourself in his shoes for a moment. You’re walking from church alone in one of the toughest parts of the suburbs. You’re nervous, timid, looking over your shoulder when suddenly you encounter him pouncing from the shadows. The street light flashes on something shiny in his hand. No time to think. In that terrifying instant, you do what any respectable citizen would: you defend yourself. Only after you have shattered his arm and collarbone do you realize it’s all a mistake. The man was merely walking away from an ATM machine. The apparent flash of metal caused by his bankcard. As you stand over his crumpled yet potentially still-dangerous form your heart goes out to him. You want to help. First, you gather up the many bills he dropped to stop them from blowing away. Second, in an effort to find someone to notify you take his wallet fully intending to return it. Then you leap into the man’s Lexus to head for assistance when suddenly a police car speeds up. You breathe a sigh of relief. Oh, joy! Help has finally arrived! But do the police applaud your initiative? Do they praise you for your heroism? No. You’re thrown to the ground, forcibly cuffed and your rights are not read to you but shouted at you in a very hostile tone! You have the right to remain silent! Now ask yourself: at this point, do you have any choice but to lash out blindly at your attacker? Woman or no woman, you put those guns on, you become a threat, baby! A loose cannon! And quite possibly, from my client’s perspective the deadly enforcer of a police state. No wonder people are so afraid to reach out and help each other. “I don’t want to get involved!” That’s what they say! My client tried. And what did he get? All of this. (Juror) I’m reminded of the story of the Good Samaritan. (Luke 10:3D on his finger). Luke ten, third story. The message of that story was: Reward those who help their neighbor. What message will you send?
