话题导入

《彼得·潘》是苏格兰小说家及剧作家詹姆斯·马修·巴利创作的长篇小说。小说讲述了一个会飞的淘气小男孩彼得·潘在永无岛的冒险故事，同他相伴的还有温迪·达令和其他人。温迪在永无岛上经历各种冒险的同时，渐渐明白了成长的意义，而彼得·潘在和温迪一起经历了种种冒险之后，也有所成长。

《彼得·潘》这部作品事实上是成人怀念美好童年的一个神话。一方面，它用生动、明快的笔法描述了一个至真至纯的儿童世界;另一方面，作者又满怀遗憾和无奈地暗示——童年虽美好，却无法挽留，人终究要长大并步入成人的世界。从童年到成年的转变，人类不仅失去了童年和童真，他们的个性受到压抑，人性也被扭曲了。而彼得·潘的存在说明人类有着永存不灭的童年和童心，这份童心让人们心旷神怡、遐思无限，忘却成人世界的喧嚣浮华，从而得到精神上的慰藉。

1 How would you like to escape the realities of everyday life to a fantasy world with fairies and pirates（海盗）？ How would you feel with so many growing pains surrounding or even swallowing you every day？ Well， you can be immersed（沉浸） in James Matthew Barries book Peter Pan， an adventure novel of some children. It will surely satisfy your curiosity and leave much room for you to rethink these obsessions （困扰）.

2 Peter Pan is playwright and novelist James Matthew Barries most famous work， published both as a play in 1904 and in 1911 as a novel. It tells the story of the magical Peter Pan， who flies into the Darling familys nursery in London one night and persuades the children， Wendy， Michael and John to fly to Neverland with him， where they get caught up in a number of wild adventures. Enriched with their new skill， they are led to the home of the Lost Boys in Neverland. But Captain Hook， the evil leader of the pirates， is determined to wipe out the Lost Boys， and especially the cocky Pan. Therefore， the conflict is on. The adventure thus captures the imagination of children and adults， setting the scene for a classic tale.

3 Barrie was inspired to write the story of Peter by the Davies children， whom Barrie adopted after the death of their parents， Sylvia and Arthur. Their names were used for the names of some of the characters in the story， and the adoption of the Lost Boys by the Darling family is said to have been based on Barries experiences of adopting the Davies children. Barrie created Peter Pan as a story to amuse two of the boys， George and Jack.

4 “All children， except one， grow up.” This is the opening line of both the book and the play. The main theme of the story is the conflict between wanting to remain a child， but knowing that one has to become an adult. Peter Pan is the living and breathing manifestation （體现） of the desire to remain a child forever， without responsibility or cares. He makes decisions based on his desire to remain a child forever， even giving up Wendy and the friendship of the Lost Boys， so that he can stay young and continue to go on wild adventures. Peter represents the desire never to get older and never to mature as a person， but to remain immersed （沉浸） in ones imagination and sense of play.

5 Though some of the values and language are now a bit out of date， Peter Pan by James Matthew Barrie is a must?have book for anyone wanting to escape into the fantasy world of Neverland with the “boy who would never grow up”. Anyone who has an endless childhood and childlike innocence cannot miss the novel. So next time you walk into a book store， just buy one copy and take it home to enjoy.

Step 4 提升·素養建构

一、语言学习

1. 重要词块

escape the realities of everyday life 逃避日常生活的现实

a fantasy world with fairies and pirates 一个有仙女和海盗的奇幻世界

be immersed in 沉浸在……中

satisfy ones curiosity 满足某人的好奇心

leave much room for sb to do 给某人留下很多的空间做……

get caught up in 深陷于……;被……所困

a number of wild adventures 很多野外/狂热冒险

be enriched with 富含……

give up 放弃

stay young 保持年轻

out of date 过时;落伍

escape into the fantasy world of Neverland 逃避到永无岛的奇幻世界里

an endless childhood and childlike innocence 永存不灭的童年和童心

2. 难句分析

He makes decisions based on his desire to remain a child forever， even giving up Wendy and the friendship of the Lost Boys， so that he can stay young and continue to go on wild adventures. 他做出的决定基于他想要永远做一个孩子的愿望，他甚至放弃了温迪和迷失男孩们的友谊，这样他就可以不长大，继续进行野外冒险。

【点石成金】本句是一个主从复合句，主句为He makes decisions based on his desire to remain a child forever，句中的based on为过去分词短语作方式状语，to remain a child forever为动词不定式作名词desire的后置定语。even giving up Wendy and the

friendship of the Lost Boys为现在分词作伴随状语。so that引导的是目的状语从句，相当于in order that。
