大學(xué)英語課堂教學(xué)過程中，角色扮演法是指在老師設(shè)定的單元教學(xué)任務(wù)后，在特定的語境下，讓學(xué)生扮演某個角色，通過模仿行為，體驗角色的心理活動和情感變化，使學(xué)生對不同人物有新的感悟，對問題有更深入的理解。本文擬以《新編大學(xué)英語》第一冊第1單元“The Gift of Life”為例，具體分析角色扮演法的應(yīng)用。

課文第一部第1-3段Introduction，介紹越南戰(zhàn)爭的背景。

第二部分第4-15段 Development，故事情節(jié)發(fā)展。

其中第4段是Climax，高潮部分：受傷嚴重的小女孩必須輸血，否則有生命危險。然而當(dāng)時沒有匹配血型，語言交流又出現(xiàn)障礙，經(jīng)過越南護士溝通后小男孩Heng“興”答應(yīng)給女孩輸血。

AD：The little girl was severely wounded.

AN：What shall we do? We do not have plasma；

AD：Unluckily we do not have the matched blood type.

AN：Maybe some of the unwounded children have.

AD：Who is willing to donate blood to save the little girl? Oh，my dear children!

H：I… I’d like to give blood (with hesitation).

AN：Thank you very much! Would you please tell us your name?

H：I’m Heng.

H：(crying.)

AN：What’s wrong with you，my dear child?

H：Hmm…I…I…

VN：Why are you crying? What’s the matter with you ?

H：I’m too depressed that I’ll have to go to another world.I feel a bit frightened.I don’t want to die.

VN：Why do you think you are going to die?

H：The doctor said if she could not get the blood needed，the girl would die immediately.

VN：Oh，no! you might have misunderstood him.The girl only need some of your blood.You just donate some blood，which will do no harm to your body.

H：Really? Are you certain?

VN：Certainly.Would you please sleep for several hours now.I can promise that you’ll be as healthy as before after waking up.

VN：(to the puzzled Navy nurse)Heng thought he was to die soon.It’s his misundersting.He thought if he gave all his blood to the girl，she could be saved.
