Defining a Hero While Warming the Wine, an excerpt from the novel, features “the situation remarks” and “the words from the heart” between the dialogues from the characters. Only by understanding “the words from the heart”, students can be absorbed in learning the text, perceive the characters’ personality, and comprehend the author’s emotional attitude. In order to avoid teaching the novel in an “argumentative style”, it is better to treat students as the center of class and thus construct a positive classroom experience by triggering cognitive conflicts so as to achieve the teaching goal. Judging from the classroom presentation, in the second cognition conflict, the students gain a positive classroom experience after they read in roles “the situation remarks” and “the words from the heart” and therefore, their thinking is developed and improved. |
