[00:41.25]READING
[00:45.51]THE NECKLACE
[00:49.45]Scene 1 A park in Paris,1870.Jeanne(J)is sitting in the park.
[00:58.83]Mathilde (M)walks towards her.
[01:02.67]M:Good afternoon,Jeanne.
[01:06.04]J:(Looking at the other woman)I'm sorry,but I don't think I know you.
[01:11.00]M:In fact you do,but you may not remember me.
[01:16.85]Many years ago we knew each other very well.
[01:21.68]I'm Mathilde Loisel.
[01:25.21]J:Mathilde!Oh yes.Sorry,I didn't reeognise you.
[01:31.38]Where have you been all these years,Mathilde?
[01:36.03]I hope you weren't ill.You don't look very well.
[01:41.67]M:No,Jeanne,I wasn't ill.I know I look older than my age.
[01:48.62]That's because of hard work--ten years of hard work.
[01:54.57]J:I'm sorry,Mathilde.Did you have a hard time?
[02:00.14]M:Yes,very hard.Years of hard work,very little food,
[02:07.90]only a small cold room to live in and never,never a moment's rest.
[02:15.76]That been my life for the past ten years.
[02:20.51]M:Well,I would rather not tell you.
[02:31.38]J:Oh,come,Mathilde.Surely2 you can tell an old friend.
[02:38.04]M:Well,...Well,it was all because of that necklace,
[02:44.28]your beautiful diamond3 necklace.
[02:48.36]J:My necklace?I don't understand.Could you please explain?
[02:55.91]M:Do you remember one afternoon ten years ago when I came to your house
[03:02.78]and borrowed a necklace of yours?
[03:06.23]Pierre,my husband,was working in a government office.
[03:11.40]We'd been invited to a ball at the plalace,so I needed to borrow some jewellery4.
[03:17.85]Scene 2 The home of Mathilde and Pierre(P)Loisel,ten years before.
[03:26.29]P:Mathilde!I've got some wonderful news.
[03:30.73]We've been invited to the ball at the palace.
[03:35.09]M:It can't be true,Pierre!
[03:38.57]P:But it is true.I was the only person in my office who was invited.
[03:44.73]I've written to accept the invitation5.
[03:48.39]M:Oh,Pierre,how wonderful! But I don't think we can go.
[03:55.83]I haven't got an evening dress for the ball!
[04:00.09]And a new dress costs over four hundred franes.
[04:05.45]P:Four hundred!That's a lot of money.
[04:09.52]But,just this once.After all,this ball is very important.
[04:15.87]M:But there's another thing,Pierre.I have no jewellery to wear.
[04:21.64]P:Does that matter?Can't you just wear a flower instead?
[04:26.61]M:No,I couldn't do that.Everybody else will be wearing jewellery.
[04:33.68]I can't be the only woman who isn't wearing jewellery.
[04:38.94]P:Can't you borrow some?Don't you have a friend who might lend you some?
[04:44.60]M:Let me think.Maybe I could ask Jeanne.She married6 a man with a lot of money.
[04:53.54]I'll go and see her on Friday after I get the new dress.
[05:00.38]Scene 3 In the park,Mathilde continues to tell Jeanne her story.
[05:08.32]M:So I called on you and asked if I could borrow some jewellery.
[05:14.80]Do you remember now?
[05:17.96]J:Yes,Mathilde,I remember.
[05:22.40]M:You were very kind.
[05:25.64]You brought out all your jewellery and you told me I could take anything I liked.
[05:33.19]There were so many beautiful things that it was hard to choose.
[05:39.25]And then I saw a lovely diamond neckiace with a big blue stone in the centre.
[06:13.32]J:Why?What happened?
[06:17.76]M:On our way home that night I looked down
[06:22.62]and saw that the neeklace was not around my neek any more.
[06:28.08]I told Pierre.We rushed back to the palace and looked for it.
[06:34.63]We asked everyone there if they had found a neeklace,but without luck.
[06:40.27]We couldn't find it.It was lost.
[06:46.94]J:But I don't understand.You brought it back to me the next afternoon.
[06:54.20]I remember very well.
[06:57.96]M:Yes,Jeanne,I brought a necklace to you.
[07:02.61]It was exactly like your neeklace,but it was different one.
[07:08.98]It cost us thirty-six thousand francs.
[07:13.95]J:Thirty-six thousand franes!
[07:18.70]M:Pierre and I borrowed the money and bought the necklace
[07:23.25]During the next ten years we both worked day and night to pay for it.
[07:29.72]That's why I now look so old.
[07:33.49]Well,after all these years we've at last pald off all our debts8.
[07:40.43]J:But my dear friend,Mathilde.
[07:44.48]That necklace you borrowed from me wasn't real diamond necklace.
[07:51.25]It wasn't precious9 at all.The stones in the necklace were made of glass.
[07:58.51]It was worth five hundred france at most.
[17:11.89]What would have happened to Malthilde
[17:20.43]and her husband after Jeanne learned10 about the fact
[17:26.18]that the necklace she had returned to her was not the one she had lent to Malthilde?
[17:44.65]Jeanne would either sell the necklace for 36,000 francs
[17:54.18]and then pay back 35,500 francs to Malthilde
[18:02.93]or simply11 pay her the same sum12 of money she ought7
[18:08.89]to have pald to that unlucky couple--the Loisels.
[19:24.83]continue=go or move further:How far does the road continue?
[20:32.88]INTEGRATING SKILLS
[20:38.44]T:Good morning,class!
[20:42.20]Ss:Good moring,Mr Brown.
[20:46.64]T:Today we are going to learn about famous plays and authors13.
[20:52.49]First,I want to know what kind of plays you like.
[20:58.66]What about you,Tim?What kind of plays do you like?
[21:04.33]TIM:Oh,I'm not sure.I don't like plays that much.
[21:10.57]Can we talk about something else,please?
[21:14.33]I prefer watching TV and playing computer games.
[21:19.19]T:I see.Well,some TV programmes14 and computer games are a bit like plays
[21:28.33]you have characters playing different roles15 and acting16 out a story.
[21:34.50]TIM:That's true.When I play a computer game,
[21:39.23]I act as one of the heroes in the game.
[21:43.07]SARAH:Yes,and some TV programmes are also like plays.
[21:49.23]They tell a story.You watch actors who act out dialogues and perform scenes.
[21:57.28]Just like in a play.
[22:00.65]T:That's right.Well,why don't we try writhing17 a play of our own?
[22:07.59]JIM:That's too difficult.
[22:10.55]T:Well,writing a short play is not that difficult,and besides,
[22:17.39]we have to start somewhere if we want to learn how to write plays.
[22:23.03]You all know how to write a story,
[22:26.87]because we have read and written many stories in class.
[22:31.73]You also know how to write dialogues,because we often use dialogues in class.
[22:38.71]If we work together,we might come up with a very good story.
[22:44.77]Let's give it a try.Who wants to start? Joy18?
[22:50.70]JOY:I know a good story.
[22:54.22]A student goes to see her grandmother who lives on the other side of town.
[23:01.88]On her way to her grandmother's
[23:06.14]she meets an alien19 who takes her in his spaceship.
[23:12.09]T:Tha's great.What happens on the spaceship?
[23:17.13]JIM:We may want to write this:the alien takes her to the future
[23:23.30]and shows her what the world look like a thousand years from now.
[23:29.33]Then she goes back to her grandmother and tells her about the future,
[23:35.37]but her grandmother doesn't believe her.
[23:39.31]SARAH:Could we write another story?
[23:43.26]The student is on her way to school and she meets a girl that looks exactly like her.
[23:51.69]She is scared at first,
[23:55.32]but then she asks the other girl who she is and where she is from.
[24:02.27]The other girl says that she is a clone20
[24:07.13]and that she will live with the first girl's family.
[24:12.59]T:OK,so we have two good ideas.I'm sure we can think of many more.
[24:20.95]Joy,use your idea about the alien with your group.
[24:26.80]Write the story first and then write down the dialogue.
[24:32.37]Sarah,do the same with your story about the clone.
[24:38.61]The other groups will use their own ideas
[24:43.96]and then we will rehearse21 the plays and act them out.
[24:48.33]Good luck
