## 题目原文

00:00:00,620 
 Part three. 
 00:00:05,040 
 You will hear two students discussing a project they have to do as part of a literature course on great books. 
 00:00:12,260 
 First, you have some time to look at questions twenty-one to twenty-five. 
 00:00:20,420 
 Now listen carefully and answer questions twenty-one to twenty-five. 
 00:01:15,740 
 CalKits Scholarship. Each scholarship offers up to fifteen hundred dollars for qualified college expenses. calkits.org. 
 00:01:24,220 
 Hi, Joey. How are you doing? I heard you were sick. 
 00:01:27,540 
 Oh, hi, Olivia. Yeah, I had a virus last week, and I missed a whole pile of lectures, like the first one on the great books in literature, where Dr. Castle gave us all the information about the semester project. 
 00:01:40,480 
 I can give you copies of the handouts. I've got them right here. 
 00:01:43,660 
 That's okay. I already collected the handouts, but I'm not very clear about all the details. I know we each have to [beeping] choose an individual author. I think I'm going to do Carlos Castaneda. I'm really interested in South American literature. 
 00:01:58,240 
 Have you checked he's on the list that Dr. Castle gave us? We can't just choose anyone. 
 00:02:03,100 
 Yeah, I checked. It's okay. Who did you choose? 
 00:02:06,460 
 Well, I was thinking of choosing Ernest Hemingway, but then I thought, "No, I'll do a British author, not an American one." So I chose Emily Brontë. 
 00:02:15,900 
 Okay. And first of all, it says we have to read a biography of our author. I guess it's okay if we just look up information about him on the Internet? 
 00:02:25,460 
 No, it's got to be a full-length book. I think the minimum length is two hundred and fifty pages. There's a list of biographies. Didn't you get that? 
 00:02:34,600 
 Oh, right. I didn't realize we had to stick with that. So what do we have to do when we've read the biography? 
 00:02:41,680 
 Well, then we have to choose one work by the writer. Again, it's got to be something quite long. We can't just read a short story. 
 00:02:49,200 
 But I guess a collection of short stories would be okay? 
 00:02:51,920 
 Yes, or even a collection of poems, they said. But I think most people are doing novels. I'm gonna do Wuthering Heights. I read it before, but I really want to read it again now I found out more about the writer. 
 00:03:05,140 
 And then the video. We have to make a short video about our author and about the book. How long has it got to be? 
 00:03:12,200 
 A minute. 
 00:03:13,420 
 What? Like sixty seconds? We got to give all the important information about their life and the book we choose? 
 00:03:20,640 
 [chuckles] Well, you can't do everything. I wrote it down somewhere. Yes. Dr. Castle said we had to find or write a short passage that helps to explain the author's passion for writing, why they're a writer. So we can back this up with reference to important events in the writer's life if they're relevant. But it's up to us, really. The video is meant to portray the essence of the writer's life and the piece of writing we choose. 
 00:03:51,280 
 So when we read the biography, we have to think about what kind of person our writer is. 
 00:03:56,640 
 Yes, and the historical context and so on. So for my writer, Emily Brontë, the biography gave a really strong impression of the place where she lived and the countryside around. 
 00:04:09,480 
 Right. I'm beginning to get the idea. 
 00:04:14,900 
 Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions twenty-six to thirty. 
 00:04:26,620 
 Now listen and answer questions twenty-six to thirty. 
 00:05:09,340 
 Uh, can I check the other requirements with you? 
 00:05:12,060 
 Sure. 
 00:05:13,670 
 The handout said after we'd read the biography, we had to read the work we'd chosen by our author and choose a passage that's typical in some way. It typifies the author's interests and style. 
 00:05:25,600 
 Yes, but at the same time, it has to relate to the biographical extract you choose. There's got to be some sort of theme linking them. 
 00:05:34,560 
 Okay, I'm with you. 
 00:05:36,220 
 And then you have to think about the video. 
 00:05:38,640 
 So are we meant to dramatize the scene we choose? 
 00:05:41,280 
 I guess we could, but there's not a lot of time for that. I think it's more how we can use things like sound effects to create the atmosphere, the feeling we want. 
 00:05:51,020 
 And presumably visuals as well? 
 00:05:53,860 
 Yeah, of course. I mean, I suppose that's the whole point of making a video. But whatever we use has to be historically in keeping with the author. We can use things like digital image processing to do it all. 
 00:06:07,280 
 So we can use any computer software we want? 
 00:06:10,160 
 Sure. And it's important that we use a range, not just one software program. That's actually one of the things we're assessed on. 
 00:06:19,080 
 Okay. 
 00:06:20,380 
 Oh, and something else that's apparently really important is to keep track of the materials we use and to acknowledge them. 
 00:06:27,920 
 Including stuff we download off the Internet, presumably? 
 00:06:31,200 
 Yeah. So our video has to list all the material used with details of the source in a bibliography at the end. 
 00:06:38,700 
 Okay. And you were talking about assessment of the project. Did they give us the criteria? I couldn't find anything on the handout. 
 00:06:47,500 
 Sure. He gave us them in the lecture. Let's see. You get twenty-five percent just for getting all the components done. That's both sets of reading and the video. Then the second part is actually how successful we are at getting the essence of the work. They call that content, and that counts for fifty percent. Then the last twenty-five percent is on the video itself, the artistic and technical side. 
 00:07:14,820 
 Great. Well, that sounds a lot of work, but a whole lot better than just handing in a paper. Thanks a lot, Olivia. 
 00:07:21,900 
 You're welcome. 
 00:07:26,460 
 That is the end of part three. 
 00:07:29,900 
 You now have thirty seconds to check your answers to part three.
