非常“3+1”铸就“艺术人生” 篇6

关键词：深化教学；研究学生；有效课堂；课后反思

在研究与实践中，我深切地感受到认真备好课是教学的关键。

苏霍姆林斯基说：“一个教师一辈子都在备课。”而大量繁重而无效的备课挤占了教师的时间与精力。如何减轻教师负担，完善“有效备课”策略呢？下面就以《葡萄沟》一文的备课思路谈四点看法，也就是非常“3+1”。

一、细读文本，深化教学

阅读本来是一件很快乐的事情，通过读书行为实现的学习，犹如在葡萄园里品尝葡萄那样快乐。一个成功的课堂教学，其精巧的教学设计、学生语文综合能力的提高、课堂高效的达成均是建立在深入的文本解析与师生的深入体验基础上的。人教版二年级下册的《葡萄沟》是一篇描写物产丰富、人们热情好客的风土文章。作者以其生动优美的语言，向我们展示了一个令人无限神往的地方。

二、全面关注，深入研究学生

教师备课不仅要备内容，更要备学生。教育的立场就是在本原上回答“教育是什么”“教育为了什么”“什么是好教育”，这个本原就是生命。每个学生都是一个独特的生命，每个学生的心灵都是一个独特的世界。

兴趣是求知获艺的先导。如导入新课时，学生欣赏葡萄沟的精美图片，教师配乐解说葡萄沟的美景，学习热情一下子就调动起来了。

课堂提出的问题最好是让学生“跳一跳能摘到果子”。也就是说，要让学生思考，但经过思考能够回答、理解和掌握的知识，才能使他们在学习过程中产生积极的内心体验，有成就感。教学是为学生服务的，心中无学生，势必无好课。

三、设计弹性方案，形成有效课堂

1.遵循目标的纬度

《义务教育语文课程标准》要求对课程目标的设计需遵循三个纬度，即知识和能力，过程和方法，情感、态度与价值观。《葡萄沟》一课的教学，我的教学目标是：

知识和能力：掌握本课的生字新词；熟读课文，背诵自己喜欢的段落。

过程和方法：通过反复朗读、品评，积累语言；联系生活加深体验。

情感态度与价值观：感受葡萄沟真是个好地方，并产生热爱祖国大好河山的情感。

2.提炼教学主问题

课堂教学中，教师面对的是学生鲜活各异的秉性，理应整体把握课文内容进行预设，便于学生自主学习和教师的指导。提炼主问题教学留给学生比较充分的自学时间，极大地方便了师生、生

生之间的交流和互动，有利于学生语文素养的形成。

首先针对教材潜心研读设计出含金量高的教学主问题。教师的设计要建立在了解学生学况的基础上，必须对学生构成吸引

力，起到“一石激起千层浪“的效果。教师应根据教学让学生立足于课文或单元进行提问，然后对问题进行分门别类、优胜汰劣，将学生提问的焦点始终引领到教学重点上。问题从学生中来，教学时就有很强的针对性，能形成开放而有活力的语文课堂，提高课堂教学效率。

《葡萄沟》一课教学中引导学生自主提问，然后筛选提炼出主问题。这样，学生的积极性自然随之高涨，学习如行云流水，自然投入。教师对教材的处理，要突出重点，分散难点，提一些有深度的问题，从而使学生在每一课的学习中，既有一定的知识坡度、难度，经过一定的思考又能学习掌握，这样互动才能达到效果。我们在提问时，不仅要在微观上考虑问点是否优化，问法是否艺术，而且要从宏观上总览全文，使每个问题的提出都处于最恰当的时机。

围绕主问题，预设流程的板块，分为景美、葡萄诱人、老乡热情、葡萄干有名四个板块合作学习。这种板块相对独立而又相互依赖，构成的是一个较为立体的课堂教学网络，有利于学生知识的内化和能力的形成。

3.学习语言三部曲

（1）品读文本，感悟“好地方”

品味领悟语言运用的精妙所在，在品味文本语言同时也深化理解文本的内容、思想、情感。所以品味語言将理解语言形式和语言内容融为一体，一箭双雕。学生在品读文章时，要对文章的语言反复理解，体味，推敲，对语言意蕴进行深入的探究，透过语言文字窥见其思想，领悟其精髓，从而加深学生对语言文字的深刻理解，提高学生的敏锐感悟能力。

如：品读景美时，要抓重点词“向四面展开”等，以及比喻体会那枝繁叶茂的葡萄树连成一片，到处郁郁葱葱，犹如浩瀚的绿色海洋的情景。让孩子在朗读中，感受到那份“清凉”与“舒服”，从而和作者产生强烈的情感共鸣，体会到葡萄沟是个好地方！

这样，既可以让学生在品味语言中掌握和提高运用我们祖国语言文字能力，又可以令他们的精神世界、审美情趣、创造能力、道德情操等人文素养也能够潜移默化地受到感染和滋生。这种潜滋暗长的濡染给予学生的才是真正的人文关怀。

（2）丰富语言积累

教学中不断积累语言是提高学生语文能力的基础。可以设想，若没有语言积累作为基础，想提高语文能力，完全是空中楼阁。因此，我们应该特别重视课内阅读，利用这块主阵地可以奠定起步阅读之“基”，夯实大量阅读之“路”，化解提高阅读能力之“难”，这就决定着提高课内阅读效率的必要性，同时也要求教师在课堂上为学生提供自由、广阔的阅读空间，培养学生自主读书能力，丰富语言积累，培养语感，发展思维。

①词语积累

词语是组成句子的最小单位，理解词语的意思是掌握整个句意的基础，对语文这门学科来讲，词语有着它无比重要的地位。学生积累描写颜色及色彩多的词，可以让学生的语文理解水平更进一步，起到更好的学习效果。学生所积累的词语不仅在课堂中重现，更要为作文教学作铺垫。

②句段积累

品读优美句子，让孩子们尽情发挥想象，用“内在的眼”去看作者描绘的美景，用“内在的耳”去听作者的心声，领悟到作者对葡萄沟的热爱，对祖国的热爱。教学时鼓励学生用自己擅长的方式表达他们的喜爱与赞美之情。在朗读与欣赏中，积累描写葡萄沟风光旖旎的句子，在欢笑声中、赞美声中，指导学生的背诵。

③拓展积累

语文知识浩如烟海，要学好语文，广泛积累不失为一种好方法。不仅要积累课本上的知识，还要以此为触发点，积累与之相关的课外知识。结课时，出示诗歌《葡萄沟传奇》并与学生共同改编。教师要活化教学资源，帮助学生扩展阅读渠道，从而变封闭的语文教学为开放的语文教学，提高学生的语文实践能力。

（3）语言的创造运用

课堂是学生实践语言，倾诉表达的舞台。学生的潜力是无限的，关键在于教师是否给了学生足够大的言语实践平台要打造好这个平台，首先要尊重、相信学生，给予充分的自主权。其次要精心构建语言实践情境，任何语言都是在特定的氛围或情境下表达出来的。给葡萄、葡萄沟设计广告语，一个充满挑战的实践语言，倾诉表达的舞台产生了，唤醒了学生的创造力，提升学生的思维品质。

四、重视课后反思，促进教师成长

备好课，上完课，这节课并没有结束，课后我们还需要静下心来反思，反思自己课堂为了谁，反思组织的策略，反思教学方法是否达到最优化，记录学生课堂中生成的问题等。

课后反思，贵在及时，贵在坚持，贵在执著地追求。教学是一项“没有最好、只有更好”的工作，课后反思作为教师教学思想轨迹的记录，是教师认识自己，总结教学经验的重要资料，从细节入手写好课后反思，对教师提高教学水平是大有益处的。

我们只有心中有爱，不断积淀，不断创新，我们的课才能常备常新，享受教学带给我们的无穷乐趣。那样，我们会更热爱自己的教育事业，我们会更热爱我们的学生，我们必将收获怡人的满园春色，我们也必将铸就课堂上的艺术人生！

PART III Guided Writing

Learning to Write The task of writing has its own benefits for the writer:  Writing is a means of self-discovery.  Writing is a way to share these discoveries with a reader.The process of writing has its own rewards.To write clearly, the writer, whether a beginning college student or a professional author, must turn inward, listen to his or her inner voice, and give that voice expression.The results are often surprising.Effective writers are intellectually curious and driven by a need to understand their environment and their places within it.Writers not only write to express personal feelings, but also to share their discoveries with others — sometimes by providing the reader with useful information(i.e.to inform), by persuading the reader to accept the writer’s point of view(i.e.to persuade), or by entertaining the reader through humor(i.e.to entertain).Examples of informational writing include textbooks, technical manuals, and encyclopedias, and things like news articles in newspaper, etc.Persuasive writings include newspapers editorials and columns, print advertisements, sermons, letters of recommendation, and business proposals, etc.Magazine and newspaper columnists like to amuse the reader by relating a story or making fun of some aspect of their readers’ daily lives.And finally, any written communication involves risks on the part of the writer.“Will the reader enjoy what I have to say?” “Will the reader understand my message?” “Will the reader agree with my position?” All of these questions can lead initially to self-doubt.Yet for the writer who accepts these risks and communicates a message as well as he or she can, the most satisfying moment comes when the writing is finished and ready for the reader.Seeing the finished product, the writer can be proud of his or her accomplishment.Key to Guided Writing

书之恋 小时候，我认为读书就像服用麻醉剂，一次仅可服一匙，但足以令我进入一个魔幻世界。随着时间的推移，一次次服用之后，我便对这一麻醉剂上了瘾。书就像这药剂，已然成为我生活中不可或缺的一部分，犹如我的朋友、我的导师、我的爱人。我最忠诚的爱人。2 一开始我从未想到自己会爱上书，甚至现在都回忆不起来自己是何时以及怎样开始读书的。只记得母亲不喜欢我读书。即便如此，一有机会我就会拿上一本，偷偷找个地方读上一两页；如果足够幸运不被发现的话，就可以读上三页。读书的时候心跳得厉害，总担心被母亲发现。对她而言，书百无一用；对我而言，书即是一切。小时候，因为我住在巴西的一个小镇里，书很难到我们镇上，因此我并没有很多书可读。不过，幸好舅舅是名飞行员。在家时舅舅总喜欢坐在那里读书，沉浸在书的世界里。每每读完一本畅销书或是一 本爱情小说，他就会把书送给母亲。母亲也爱读书，但她却不喜欢我读书。可无论如何我 都会想方设法读上那本宝贝书的，即便是要我躲起来一点点地读完整本书也罢。5 还记得有一套小书，已经很旧了，可我却觉得一点儿都不旧。很长一段时间里，我一本本如饥似渴地读着，把自己假想为书中的女主人公，等待心上人早日前来拯救。当然，他并没有来。倒是我离开了小镇，仅仅带着衣物到里约热内卢开始求学生活。但我心底却带着对书籍那永远挥之不去的深情。我被送到一所寄宿学校上学。教室的书架上大概有50本书，几乎都是关于圣徒生活和耶稣故事的。正愁没什么可读之时，我在书架的末端发现了一本尘封已久的小书。书的内容似乎与宗教无关，因为书名格外引人注意 ——《老人与海》。书的作者我以前从未听说过，叫欧内斯特·海明威。于是，我好奇地读了起来，没过几分钟就被书中的渔夫圣地亚哥深深地吸引住了。我太喜欢那本小说了，去姨妈家度周末时，我就问她是否有海明威写的书。她借给我一本《丧钟为谁而鸣》，我每周日去她家都要读一点，每次只读一点。那段日子里，我总是焦急地期待着下一个周日的到来。13岁时我便深深地迷恋上了海明威的作品。8 那时，我觉得自己与书的关系有些奇怪，它让我觉得自己与众不同。只是在读了一位巴西作家的小说之后，我才突然发觉有人同我一样爱着书。我第一次感觉到自己并非形单影只。我一生自始至终保持着那份对于书的热情。但在31岁搬到纽约的那年，这一热情却不得不经受了又一个巨大的考验。当时我几乎一文不名，所以不得不将所有的书都留在了巴西。而且，我对英语知之甚少，无法用英语阅读。有好几年，我又被打入黑暗的世界，被迫在没有书的天地中度日，离开了我的朋友，我的导师，我的爱人啊。但是对于书的深深爱恋让我还是克服了这一困难。我学会了英语，并且最终又可以赏读我最喜爱的作品了。书已成为我生命中的一部分，但对我而言，它仍然保持着一份神秘感。每每翻开一本新书，我都会问自己：我会从中发现怎样的乐趣，踏上怎样的征程，进入怎样的感情世界呢？它会触动像我这样的一个女人、一个外乡人、一个浪漫的人、一个好奇的人吗？它又将向我呈现什么样的景象，触动我的哪根心弦，为我揭开哪些秘密呢？ 我读过许多书，它们以各自独特的方式深深地打动着我。现在我终于明白了，儿时母亲试图让我远离书籍是有一定道理的。她想让我呆在小镇里，嫁给一个有钱的无聊男人，循规蹈矩地生活。但是书籍把我带离了家乡，为我插上了飞翔的翅膀，去找寻新的世界。书籍使我敢于尝试别样人生。它使我期盼更多，而当我所期盼的不能全实现时，它仍然在那儿安慰我，给我新的选择。是啊，母亲是对的。书是危险的，是有颠覆性的。正是因为书，我放弃了可以预见的未来，去追寻不可预知的明天。然而，如果要我重新做出选择，我仍然会选择书，而不是我可以拥有的枯燥乏味的生活。毕竟，离开了书，离开了我最忠实的爱人，我的内心深处还能找到什么快乐呢？

PART III Reading Skills

Identifying the Topic Sentence A paragraph is a group of sentences dealing with a single topic or idea.Usually, one sentence, called the topic sentence, states the main idea of the paragraph.All the other sentences are related to this topic sentence, explaining or supporting the main idea.Topic sentences are useful to readers because they guide them through sometimes complex arguments.As the thesis statement is the unifying force in the essay, so is the topic sentence in the paragraph.There are some rules for finding the topic sentence.1.The topic sentence is usually at the beginning, though it could be in any position in the paragraph.2.A topic sentence is usually more general than the other sentences, that is, it talks about many things and looks at a bigger picture.Plurals and the words many, numerous, or several often signal a topic sentence.3.Detail sentences are usually more specific than the topic, that is, they usually talk about one single or small part or side of an idea.Also, the words for example, i.e., that is, first, second, third, finally, etc., often signal a detail.4.Most of the detail sentences support, give examples for, prove, talk about, or point toward the topic in some way.You may try this trick to ensure that you are having a topic sentence: switch the sentence around into a question.If the other sentences seem to answer the question, then you’ve got it.The Positions of Topic Sentences

Topic sentences usually occur at the beginning or end of the paragraph.Much less frequently, topic sentences may appear in the middle of the paragraph or may simply be implied. At the beginning of the paragraph:

Topic sentences appear most frequently as the first sentence in a paragraph.This position helps readers become oriented immediately to the paragraph’s topic and facilitates communication.For example: A midwinter vacation at Club Tropic has its good points and bad points.The beaches are clean and uncrowded.The surrounding countryside is lush and soothing to winter-weary eyes.Furthermore, being able to take sailing and scuba diving lessons, while friends back home shovel snow, makes the outdoor activities extra-enjoyable.On the other hand, several features of Club Tropic are substandard.The food is poor, and, because the club is isolated, eating elsewhere is impossible.Security could also be better, as thefts from several guests’ rooms indicated.So for some vacationers, nice scenery and fun activities may not be enough  to offset the possibility of poor service and lax security.At the end of the paragraph:

If the topic sentence is not the first sentence in the paragraph, it is often the last sentence in the paragraph, summarizing or generalizing the paragraph’s information.For example: Beginning at breakfast with flying globs of oatmeal, spilled juice, and toast that always lands jelly-side down, a day with small children grows into a nightmare of frantic activity, punctuated with shrieks, cries, and hyena-style laughs.The very act of playing turns the house into a disaster area: blankets and sheets that are thrown over tables and chairs to form caves, miniature cars and trucks that race endlessly up and down hallways, and a cat that becomes a caged tiger, imprisoned under the laundry basket.After supper, with more spilled milk, uneaten vegetables and tidbits fed to the cat under the table, it’s finally time for bed.But before they fall blissfully asleep, the children still have time to knock over one more bedtime glass of water, jump on the beds until the springs threaten to break, and demand a last ride to the bathroom on mother’s back.Constant confusion is a way of life for parents of small children. In the middle of the paragraph:

The interior position is not very emphatic, therefore topic sentences are less frequently found there.But sometimes the writer creates a different form of emphasis — one based on tension rather than on position — to offset the emphasis lost by not using the beginning or ending sentence slot.In the following example, the first sentence is limiting;but is the turn word that introduces the topic sentence.When we think of Gandhi fasting, plastering mud poultices on his belly, and testing his vow of continence by sharing a bed with his grand-niece, we can easily regard him as a fanatic who happened to be politically lucky.But the links between his private fads and his political methods turn out to be quite logical.Gandhi’s pursuit of personal rigors helped him to achieve a rare degree of discipline that allowed him to approach political crises with amazing courage.The example of his self-control, furthermore, was contagious;a more worldly man could not have led millions of his countrymen to adopt the tactic of nonviolent resistance. The topic sentence is simply implied: Sometimes, the writer doesn’t give a clear topic sentence.Instead, the main idea of the paragraph is implied by the details or examples given.Implied main idea of a paragraph is very popular in narratives.The readers can usually get the main idea by analyzing the logical relationship among the sentences in the paragraph.For example: Until the War of 1812, the United States had always bought its manufactured goods, especially its fine cloth, from England.During the war, however, the United States could neither sell its raw materials, nor buy manufactured goods in European markets.There were nothing to do but manufacture its own goods.By the end of the War of 1812 there were nearly 150,000 men and women working in cotton and woolen mills in the United States.We have no figures on the number of workers employed in the various stages of iron production, but we know that the iron industry had greatly increased.Besides the cloth and iron works, there was a great leather industry, including shoe factories, saddle shops, and harness-making shops, while American hatters were able to supply the market with wool hats and fur caps.By analyzing the details and examples given in this paragraph, we can get the main idea of this paragraph which is implied: After the War of 1812 the United States was far less dependent on Europe for its manufactured goods.Key to Reading Skills

惜时如金破万卷 如果你是一位普通读者，你就能以每分钟300词的速度阅读一般性读物。但是，除非你每天坚持，否则就不能保持这个平均速度。如果读的书是有关科学、数学、农业、商业方面的，或是关于一门全新的、你不甚了解的科目，要达到这个阅读速度也会很难。你若想以此速度阅读诗歌或品味故事段落，那就更不可能了。但是如果读小说、传记或者关于旅行、爱好、个人兴趣方面的书，一位普通读者可以毫不费力地以每分钟300词的速度理解文章意义，享受阅读乐趣。尽管统计数据并不总是与事实相符，但看看下面这些数据：假如一位普通读者读普通读物平均每分钟能读300词，15分钟就能读4 500词。一周七天读31 500词，一个月四周是126 000词，一年12个月阅读的词汇总量可以高达1 512 000词。这就是一位普通读者读普通读物每天只读15分钟，在一年中所能阅读的词汇总量。书的篇幅从60 000词到100 000词不等，平均起来大约每本书有75 000词。阅读水平属于中等的读者，读普通读物，每天读15分钟，一年就可以读上20本。这个数目非常可观，是美国公共图书馆人均借阅量的四倍，然而这却并不难实现。威廉•奥斯勒爵士是当代最伟大的内科医生之一。他曾任教于约翰斯·霍普金斯（大学）医学院，在牛津大学结束了执教生涯。当今许多杰出的内科医生都曾是他的学生。曾经有一段时间，几乎所有执业的医生都是读他的医学教科书成长起来的。传记作家和评论家们认为，威廉•奥斯勒爵士的杰出不仅仅来自其渊博的医学知识，他卓越的见解也不只源于其丰富的通识教育，实际上，他是一位文化修养极高的全才。他一生都在思考。他知道，学习人类精华的惟一途径，是读人们写下的东西。但是，奥斯勒也有着常人都有的困难，而且更大。他是位忙碌的内科医生，而且要从事内科临床教学，同时他还是个医学研究专家。除了睡觉、吃饭、去卫生间的几个小时，他一天24小时中的其它时间都理所当然地被上述三项工作占去了。奥斯勒很快想出了解决问题的办法。他用每天睡前的15分钟读书。如果就寝时间定为晚上11点，他就从11点读到11点15分。如果研究工作进行到凌晨2点，他就从2点读到2点15分。自从立了这个规矩以后，年复一年，整个一生中他持之以恒，从未破例。事实上这样开始后不久，他如果不读上15分钟书简直就无法入睡。在奥斯勒的一生中，他读了数目相当可观的书籍。不妨心算一下，若每天阅读15分钟，这样坚持50年，你会读多少书呢？想想吧，人的一生中可以涉猎多少有趣的东西和纷繁的学科啊。奥斯勒就阅读了大量医学专业以外的书籍。事实上，由于养成了每天阅读15分钟的习惯，他得以在专业之外发展了他的业余专长。在研究英国文学的学者中，奥斯勒是公认的研究17世纪英国散文大师托马斯·布朗爵士的权威，他有关托马斯·布朗的藏书被认为是世界一流的。我们还可以举出众多事例说明奥斯勒在医学研究、医学教学改革以及现代临床方法运用等方面的贡献。但是，我们这里所谈的重点在于，他极好地解答了我们每一个工作繁忙的人必须回答的问题：如何才能找出时间读书？ 这个问题没有固定的答案。每个人每天都必须找到自己的那15分钟。最好每天时间固定，那么这固定时间以外的许多阅读时间就是给我们的额外奖赏。相信我，额外的阅读机会很多，甚至是始料未及的。昨晚有位客人突然造访，这样打桥牌的人就多了一个。我手边刚好有本书，这样我虽没能打上桥牌，但同样乐在其中。读书需要有毅力，这是惟一的要求。有了毅力，无论多忙，你总会找出用来读书的15分钟时间。你要确保身边随时有本书，从开始阅读那刻起，这15分钟阅读时间一秒钟也不能浪费。把要看的书提前准备好，穿衣时放进口袋里；再放一本在床头；在浴室里放一本；在餐桌旁也放一本。你每天总能找出15分钟读书的。这意味着，一周下来你就会读完半本书，一个月读两本，一年读20本，一生就会读1 000本，甚至更多。轻而易举地，你就能成为一位博学之士。Unit One Enjoyment of Learning

Section C What’s the Secret to Getting Good Grades?

PART I Translation Techniques

Literal Translation and Free Translation Translating methods are undoubtedly the core problems we are faced with in the translation process.There are many kinds of translating methods, and among them literal translation and free translation are the two most commonly used.Literal translation is sometimes called word-for-word translation.It is aimed at preserving both the contents and the form of the source language text in accordance with the cultural tradition.During the translation process, we are supposed to replace individual source text words with individual target language words wherever possible, and cling as closely as possible to the source language word order in the target language.Free translation is also known as sense-for-sense translation.It lays more stress on the transfer of the meaning or the “spirit” of a source language text than on the accurate reproduction of the original wording.Unlike literal translation, free translation is aimed at producing a text that conforms to the linguistic and textual norms of the target language and culture.As to how to use literal translation and free translation properly, the discussion can be dated back to the ancient times when Buddhist scripture and the Bible were translated.Now people seem to have reached a general consensus that we should translate literally if possible, otherwise we just appeal to free translation.In other words, literal translation should be adopted whenever possible and free translation adopted whenever literal translation is not so good a choice.Therefore, literal translation and free translation are not contradictory, but complementary.Both can be used in translating words, idioms, proverbs and sentences.1.Words

Example 1: the moon

literal translation: 月亮

free translation: 玉兔；月桂；婵娟 Example 2: 笔记本（电脑）

literal translation: notebook free translation: laptop

2.Idioms

Example 1: to teach a pig to play on a flute

literal translation: 教猪吹笛 free translation: 对牛弹琴 Example 2: 人云亦云

literal translation: to repeat what others say free translation: to have no views of one’s own 3.Proverbs

Example 1: The worst wheel of a cart creaks most.literal translation: 最坏的车轮最会嘎嘎响。

free translation: 才学最差，叫喊最响；出力最少，抱怨最多。

Example 2: 树倒猢狲散。

literal translation: When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter.free translation: When an influential person falls from power, his hangers-on disperse.4.Sentences

Example 1: He had one foot in the grave.literal translation: 他的一只脚踏进了坟墓，离死不远了。

free translation: 他已是风烛残年。

Example 2: 狗嘴里吐不出象牙。

literal translation: A dog’s mouth doesn’t spit out an ivory.free translation: A filthy mouth cannot utter decent language.It can be concluded from the above examples that some words, idioms, proverbs and sentences can be translated both literally and freely, so it is up to the translator to decide according to the context whether to adopt literal translation or free translation.Generally speaking, literal translation is used more in translating laws, political articles, academic works and news reports, while free translation is used more in translating lyrics, poetry, prose, plays, novels as well as biography.Key to Translation Techniques
