选修8《Warming up、Pre-reading、Reading、Comprehending》公开课PPT课件优质课下载
Pygmalion was a very gifted artist. He hated women, and especially hated the idea of getting married. He spent a long time making a stone statue of a beautiful woman out of ivory. It was so beautiful that he couldn’t help loving it and wanted it to be his wife.
But it was only a stone. How could he make his dream become true? He thought and thought and at last he asked the Greek Goddess to help him to bring it to life.
The Greek Goddess agreed to help and his wish was granted. The statue was made into a real woman. The two married and lived happily ever after.
