编者按/精读指导(B)： Lesson 6选自英文版 Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince第148-151页[第9章 The Half-Blood Prince]，本课内容有4页，描写斯内普（Snape）教授作为黑魔法防御术课老师的第一节课，我们将完整地学习这一节课。从本课开始，我们把课调为每课3到5页，最少3页，最多5页。从写作的角度，本课从Snape进入教室开始上课写起，谈起之前5位黑魔法防御术课老师、他对黑魔法的看法，同时伴随着哈利的心理描写；本课Snape开始教授无声咒（non-verbal spell），写道赫敏（Hermione）积极回答Snape的提问，Snape对Hermione的回答做出轻蔑的评论——“原封不动抄课本”；在接下来具体的无声咒练习中，哈利本能地念出铁甲咒，把Snape击倒，得到周六关禁闭的处罚；听到哈利解释为什么这样做后，Hermione 做出让哈利怒气消释的解释，Snape对黑魔法欣赏的口吻和你将面对伏地魔时的口气时非常相似的，有趣的是Hermione背诵下哈利的原话： “when you were telling us what it’s like to face Voldemort. You said it wasn’t just memorisinng a bunch of spells you said it was just and your brains and your guts – well wasn’t that what Snape was saying? That is really comes down to being brave and quick-thinking? (2014f: 151).” 有心学习写作的同学，要注意学习其中的情节描写和全书的布局安排，但是这些都要建立在掌握英语词汇的基础上进行，我们是从英语的角度来学习写作，不是从中文的角度来学习写作。
什么是黑魔法呢？如果大家对这个问题有兴趣，可以去读读《金枝》这本书人类学名著。其实中国文化中也是有黑魔法的，比如蛊毒，在孙思邈《千金方》等医书中就有破解此类黑魔法的方法。在《红楼梦》中马道婆也会宝玉和王熙凤施了黑魔法。
本课要注意复习和掌握下面词汇：frame curtain crane sporting respect shot drop.
Frame和curtain在《凤凰社》中我们学习过这两个词，这两词是《哈利波特》中常常用来描写Snape教授外貌所用：his sallow face framed as ever by two curtains of greasy black hair (2014f: 148)；我们再看《凤凰社》中句子：Snape looked around at him his face framed between curtains of greasy black hair (2014e: 479). frame作为名词有‘框架’的含义，作为动词是‘给···做框；给···镶边’含义，在本页中含有frame的句子是描写Snape的脸 “his face framed between curtains of greasy black hair ”中文翻译“一张脸镶在油油的黑发帘中”有些生硬，我们看《牛津高阶英汉双解词典》在给出‘给···做框；给···镶边’含义这个含义后，举了一个例子 “Her blonde hair framed her face [她的金发衬着面庞]” ；curtain的一个常用含义是‘窗帘’，但是在这里含义为‘覆盖物；隐蔽物；防护物’。
Crane作为名词含义为鹤、起重机，作为动词义项为‘[为看得更清楚而]探着身子; 伸长[脖子]’，在《魔法师》第1页就出现过，用来描写佩妮姨妈，本课是描写全班同学：…she spent so much of her time craning over garden fences spying on the neighbours (2014a 1). The class craned their necks to keep him in view (2014f 148).
Respect 在本课义项为‘慎重对待；谨慎从事’：It was surely one thing to respect the Dark Arts as a dangerous enemy (2014f 149).
drop [drɒp] v: your eyes/gazes ~ | ~ your eyes/gaze (formal) to look down. (垂下[眼睛]；垂视)，drop是个常见词，我们今天学习一个新义项 ‘垂下[眼睛]；垂视’：He refused to drop his gaze but glowered at Snape until Snape looked away (2014f 150).

《哈利波特》精读系类之编者按/精读指导(A)：成人英语学习应该有更多的主动性，在高中英语的基础上，应该尽快进入英语原著和英文报纸的阅读，这样才能尽快的提升英语水平。因为英语原著和英语报纸，不同于中学的考试，其中的内容都是英语的实际应用。我会和朋友们一起分享英语原著《哈利波特》7册的内容和中国日报(China Daily)上面的英文报道。我们本着共享的理念，以“雅思6.5及之上的考生英语阅读水平”来编辑《哈利波特英语词典》，其中也会收录中学英语课本的一些单词。用《哈利波特英语词典》里面收录的单词来为《中国日报》等阅读文章做单词表。我们会认真精讲7册《哈利波特》中每一页，制出相对对应的单词表。
关于英语学习方法，请大家参考我在2022年2月28日所写的“英语学习方法论（一）”。这篇文章是基于我们近期《哈利波特与凤凰社》泛读和精读43课，以及《中国日报》泛读和153篇精读文章所写。
就我们初级英语课程而言，我们目前有两个工作目标：一是编写《哈利波特英语词典》，单词收录量为2到3万；二是编写《博雅英语阅读文库·中国日报1000篇》。我们有三级英语课程，初级英语课程为《哈利波特》7册的内容和中国日报(China Daily) 、《乔布斯传》、《马斯克传》等英语原著，以训练学生流畅地阅读英语小说、英语报刊杂志和按照英语习惯顺畅地写作为目标；中级英语课程为英语学术训练，能流畅地阅读英语学术著作，如 A New History of Western Philosophy，并能够书写规范的学术论文；高级英语课程是以了解通过英语来学习文化，学习莎士比亚等英美名家著作、英文版的《圣经》、《易经》等等，目的是更加深入地了解英语背后的文明和中华文明等，让英语学习不仅仅止于语言，要上升到文明的角度来学习英语和用英语来学习。我们认可这样的理念“语言和宗教是定义一个文明的核心标志”。我们的课程有三个立足点，一、高中毕业的英语水平；二、有学习的主动性；三、雅思最低成绩6.5。
