《新概念英语》第三册英译英“英语阅读” L1 A Puma at large 1

要想用《新概念英语》第三册通过“英语阅读”训练和提高英语，我们首先就要界定清楚：什么是“英语阅读”？

对于不同英语程度的师生，“英语阅读”有不同的理解。正因为“英语阅读”存在多种“解释”，在这里，我们对“英语阅读”做以下专门的解释和理解，以便能按照我们理解的准确目标开展“英语阅读”训练。

我们对“英语阅读”的界定是：

互联网+时代，英语阅读的目的是为了给你一次“说”英语、“用”英语的机会和能力锻炼，而不是为了让你把课文“准确”翻译成中文，也就是“英译汉”式“英语阅读”，是“英译英”式“英语阅读”。把握住这个“英语阅读”目标，其它任何“在理”的阅读理由都可以彻底放弃。

“用”英语、“说”英语的机会和能力锻炼，“英语阅读”唯一关注的目标。

一、课文

Lesson1 A puma at large

Pumas are large, cat-like animals which are found in America. 

二、边“读”英语，边把学过的英语“用起来”的英语阅读

1) Lesson1 A puma at large

1. Okay.I got you.If we say someone or something,especially like a criminal or a dangerous animal is at large,we mean they are at liberty,they have escaped,or run away,and they're not yet captured.

2. So,we can say A person who is at large is not in prison.A puma at large means a puma had run away from control.

“英语阅读”要的是这个英语“说”和“用”以及“记”的能力，不是把英语“精确翻译”成中文的能力。

2) Pumas are large, cat-like animals which are found in America. 

1.Okay.I got you.What does puma mean?

A puma is a wild animal.It looks like a cat and is very big,very huge.

不能“说”这样的英语怎么能叫“读”英语？

1.If an animal or a plant is found in somewhere,we can also say they live there.

2.So,we can say Kangaroos are found in Australia only=They live there.

3.Pandas are found only in China,meaning Pandas live in China only.

只有读得“满脑子都是英语”的阅读才是有效“英语阅读”，我们需要这个肌肉记忆的训练过程。
