* Writing How to write a play READING TASK 1 Read or listen to the final part of the play in groups with each person taking the part of a different character. If theres anything you dont understand, ask the group to help you. Part 6 concludes the play. In this part, Cordelia and Lear are reconciled, but then the French army loses and Cordelia and Lear are taken prisoner. Goneril poisons Regan and then kills herself out of shame. Meanwhile Gonerils husband, the Duke of Albany, 故事梗概 finds out that the sisters have ordered that Cordelia be hanged. He tries to prevent it but is too late. After her death, Lear once more goes mad and then dies. Albany then declares that the kingdom will be ruled by the son of Lears friend, the Duke of Gloucester. 2 Read Part 6 again and answer the questions. 1 At the beginning of Part 6 Lear is mad. What happens to make him come out of his madness? 2 When Cordelia and Lear are taken prisoner, why does Lear want to go to prison? 3 While they are in prison, Lear goes mad again, what causes this? 4 At the end of the play, why does Kent stop Albany from trying to help Lear? 5 Why did Albany change sides and try to save Cordelia? 6 What is going to happen to Lears kingdom now that his family is dead? Do you think this will be a good thing? Why? 1 Lear is given medicine by the doctors and his daughter talks to him. 2 Lear wants to live away from the rest of the world with only Cordelia for company. He wants to spend the rest of his life asking for her forgiveness. 3 Cordelia is hanged and Lear once more goes mad. 4 Kent believes Lear no hinger wants to live (he hates this world and cannot bear to live in it any longer) and should be allowed to die. 5 Because he hates the cruel way his wife is behaving. 6 The Duke of Gloucesters son will become king. Shakespeare intends us to think this is a good thing because the kingdom will have only one ruler and there will be no more fighting. Steps to complete a play: 1. 小组讨论，确定剧本题材和类型； 2. 确定故事中的人物，商定故事情
