students to learn about the cultural background related to the text。b)Ask students to apply the reading skill and do Exercise 2(page 10)tounderstandthe details of the text.c)Explain language points。For this step,the teacher can guide students toanalyze some difficult sentences syntactically and rhetorically so as to help them better understand the text.Language Points 1)Confucianism is a window into these and other virtues。(Para.2)Analyze:A metaphor is used here.“A window”is used to refer to“a way of seeing and learning about something”.Translation:儒家思想为学习 这些和其他美德打开另一扇窗口。2)Its focus is not on a creator God above the world,but rather on the world itself,as a place where ultimate meaning is found.(Para.3)Paraphrase:Instead of concentrating on God who is believed to have created the world and govern the world,Confucianism is more concerned about the worldly affairs themselves,from which the original meaning of life is found.Translation:儒家关注的并非高高在上的造物主上帝,而是关注这个世界本身,并将之视为终极意义之所在。3)If we equate ultimate meaning with what is truly sacred in life,then Confucianism finds the sacred in the secular,in the relationships of ordinary life。(Para.3)Paraphrase:If the fundamental meaning can be explained as something really important and deeply respected,Confucianism,therefore,does not find it in religions,but rather in the actual daily life and personal relationships.Translation:如果我们将这种终极意义等同于生活中真正神圣的东西,那么儒家便能在世俗之中,在日常生活的种种关系之中找到神圣。4)The sacred is found in preparing and sharing meals with family and friends over a dinner table in having the freedom to live simply and non-ostentatiously,in a humane and caring way,without needing to be famous.(Para。4)Analyze:The whole paragraph consists of just one sentence,within which nine prepositional phrases are parallelized to describe where the sacred can be found。5)Underlying these values is an even more fundamental value that permeates every one of them。(Para.6)Paraphrase:There is a more essential value beneath all these values which actually affects every part of them.Translation:这些价值是基于一种更为根本的价值,这个根本价值贯穿以上每个价值。6)This harmony is not sameness.It is not a collapse of everything into one thing。(Para。6)Paraphrase:Harmony does not require that everything be the same.Trying to make everything to fit into one mold will have a destructive effect on harmony。Analysis:The two negations define harmony from another aspect.The sentence implies that harmony also values variety and diversity.Differences can co-exist side by side.Translation:这种和谐也许并非一味地求同。它不是毁万物而成就一物.7)He sees harmonious intensity and intense harmony as the happiness-the satisfaction which all living beings seek at every moment of their lives。(Para。8)Paraphrase:He thinks mutual respect for the co-existence of differences will lead to strong,everlasting harmony.Translation:他将和而不同视为快乐-即满足-所有的人每时每刻都在追寻的东西。8)The ideas enunciated above are all compatible with a walk with Christ,a practicing of the Dharma,a walk with Torah,a practicing of Islam.(Para.9)Paraphrase:All the above ideas and beliefs held by Confucianism can be said to be in harmony with the religious doctrines by Christianity,Dharma(Buddhism),Torah(Judaism)and Islam.Analysis:The parallel phrases refer to the doctrines and ideas in the four religions,namely Christianity,Buddhism,Judaism and Islam in a metonymic way。Translation:上述种种观点与基督精神、佛法之道、犹太之律、伊斯兰之义都有相通之处。Reading and Discussing(20 minutes)Ask students to work in groups and discuss the questions in
