******************************************************************************* Part I (2 Class Hours)Session 11. Lead-up: Salvation: A brief introduction1.1. About the Wtriter: Langston HughesLangston Hughes (1902-1967), was, still is, and will always be a well-remembered modern American black poet and writer for his poetic talents and passion, his merry and rhythmical style, his bold divergence form traditional poetry, his compassion for the poor and the underprivileged, and his depiction of the life of black Americans.Dreams: One of the most read poems by Langston Hughes in China.Hold fast to dreamsFor if dreams dieLife is a broken-winged birdThat cannot flyHold fast to dreamsFor when dreams goLife is a barren fieldFrozen with snow(two stanzas from the poem. One or two students may be invited to give the general idea of the poem, to see whether they have caught and understood it properly. )1.2. About Jesus ChristGod: the Creator/the First Cause/ Our Maker (creation); The Almighty/omnipotent, the Most High, One above, Supreme being, the Everlasting, Judge, Providence, etc.Jesus: the man of sorrows, prince of peace, beloved/only begotten son, the Carpenter’s son, Christ, the Good/Great shepherd.1.3. About the Bible (Christianity)1) The title of the text: Salvation—savior--- Jesus/GodA Core Concept in Christianity: original sin2) The Bible: As you will come to realize, western civilization has three major origins and pillars, namely, Greek democracy, rationalism, and Christianity. The Bible, for its literary, poetic, aesthetic, ethical, historical and philosophical values, has greatly influenced English literature, and almost all forms of arts, particularly painting, sculpture, architecture, movies, etc.. Admittedly, the language of the Bible has found its way into pure literature, newspaper reports, movies and even daily conversations. So, without a good understanding of the fundamentals of the Bible, it would be practically impossible to familiarize yourself with the culture beneath the English language and beyond. (Fortunately, we will have a multi-perspective reading of the text through which we will try to explore some relevant core concepts concerning the Bible, so as to better prepare us for a more thorough and in-depth study of English as a language and a culture as well.)1.4 About the Text：A guess1.5 Text Study: the first 2 or 3 paragraphsWords and expressions in focusSalvation：Save fromRevivalPreachHardenedBy leaps and boundsSesson 21.Text Study1.1．Text Study and Language Points in FocusFoldEscortMournerRhythmicalSermonLeave outBe left out in the coldHold outBraidPrayerButAltarDeaconSwirlCongregationMightyWailSerenelySobHold upGrinTake one’s name in vainBreak intoRejoiceQuiet downPunctuateEcstaticBlessJoyous1.2 An appreciation of the beauties and subtleties of some wordsP1.

SalvationBy Langston Hughes(1)I was saved from sin when I was going on thirteen. But not really saved. It happened like this. There was a big (1)revival at my Auntie Reed’s church. Every night for weeks there had been much (2)preaching, singing, praying, and shouting, and (2)some very hardened sinners had been brought to Christ, and the membership of the church had grown (3)by leaps and bounds. Then just before the revival ended, they held a special meeting for children, “(3)to bring the young lambs to the fold”. My aunt spoke of it for days ahead. That night (4)I was escorted to the front row(5)and placed on the(4)mourners’ bench with all the other young sinners, who had not yet been brought to Jesus.My aunt told me that when you were saved you saw a light, and something happened to you inside! And Jesus came into your life! And God was with you from then on! She said you could see and hear and feel Jesus in your soul. I believed her. I have heard a great many old people say the same thing and it seemed to me they ought to know. So I sat there calmly in the hot, crowded church, waiting for Jesus to come to me.The preacher preached a wonderful (5)rhythmical (6)sermon, all moans and shouts and lonely cries and (7)dire pictures of hell, and then he sang a song about the ninety and nine safe in the fold, but one little lamb was left out in the cold. Then he said: “Won’t you come? Won’t you come to Jesus? Young lambs, won’t you come?” And he held out his arms to all us young sinners there on the mourners’ bench. And the little girls cried. And some of them jumped up and went to Jesus right away. But most of us just sat there.A great many old people came and knelt around us and prayed, old women with (8)jet-black faces and (9)braided hair, old men with (10)work-gnarled hands. (6)And the church sang a song about the lower lights are burning, some poor sinners to be saved. And the whole building rocked with prayer and song.Still I kept waiting to see Jesus.Finally all the young people had gone to the altar and were saved, but one boy and me. He was a (11)rounder’s son named Westley. Westley and I were surrounded by (7)sisters and deacons praying. It was very hot in the church, and getting late now. Finally Westley said to me in a whisper: “(9)Goddamn! I’m tired o’ sitting here. Let’s get up and be saved.” So he got up and was saved.Then I was left all alone on the mourners’ bench. My aunt came and knelt a t my knees and cried, while prayers and songs (12)swirled all around me in the little church. The whole(13)congregation prayed for me alone, in a mighty wail of moans and voices. And I kept waiting(14)serenely for Jesus, waiting, waiting —but he didn’t come. I wanted to see him, but nothing happened to me. Nothing! I wanted something to happen to me, but nothing happened.I heard the songs and the minister saying: “Why don’t you come? My dear child, why don’t you come to Jesus? Jesus is waiting for you. He wants you. Why don’t you come? Sister Reed, what is this child’s name?”“Langston,” my aunt sobbed.“Langston, why don’t you come? Why don’t you come and be saved? Oh, (8)Lamb of God! Why don’t you come?”Now it was really getting late. I began to (15)be ashamed of myself, holding everything up solong. I began to wonder what God thought about Westley, who certainly hadn’t seen Jesus either, but who was now sitting proudly on the platform, swinging his (9)knickerbockered legs and (16)grinning down at me, surrounded by deacons and old women on their knees praying. (10)God had not struck Westley dead for taking his name in vain or for lying in the temple. So I decided that maybe to save further trouble, I’d better lie, too, and say that Jesus had come, and get up and be saved.So I got up.Suddenly (11)the whole room broke into a sea of shouting, as they saw me rise. Waves of rejoicing swept the place.Women (17)leaped in the air. My aunt threw her arms around me.(12)The minister took me by the hand and led me to the platform.When things quieted down, in a (18)hushed silence, punctuated by a few(19)ecstatic “Amens”, all the new young lambs were blessed in the name of God. Then joyous singing filled the room.That night, (13)for the last time in my life but one— for I was a big boy twelve years old —I cried. I cried, in bed alone, and couldn’t stop. I buried my head under the quilts, but my aunt heard me. She woke up and told my uncle I was crying because the Holy Ghost had come into my life, and because I had seen Jesus. But I was really crying because (14)I couldn’t bear to tell her that I had lied, that I had deceived everybody in the church, that I hadn’t seen Jesus, and that now I didn’t believe there was a Jesus any more, since he didn’t come to help me.。
