Part 1
T：Remember that the deadline for the poetry competition is the 24th. Who's going to enter the competition？Lucy, how about you?
L：I've written something，but if I had an extra week, I could improve it。

T：Lucy, I'm sure it's very good already. Now what about your poem，Pitt?
P: I'm not going to enter a poem this year。

I just cannot think of anything to write about.
T：Well，what about you, Jack？
J: I haven't begun mine yet。

I plan to do it this week—end – but only if I feel inspired。

Part 2
T: OK，everybody，let’s talk about how to become inspired to write poetry。

Jack，let's start with you. How will you inspire yourself this weekend?
J：Well, I intend to go for a hike in the countryside and sit quietly somewhere by myself.
T: How does that help，Jack？
J：Well，I notice a lot more—maybe an insect carrying something, the shapes and colours of the flowers, how the wind sounds, or the different smells in the air。

Anyway，I find that as I look around me all sorts of interesting thoughts and words come into my mind。

T: That sounds great. Would anyone else like to tell us how they become inspired to write？Yes，Lucy?
L: Usually I write best when I am surrounded by familiar things, so I need to be in my own house. But now I've listened to Jack，I think I’ll try out his way too some time。

P: Actually, I work best on my homework when I’m listening to my favourite music. I've never tried it with poetry before，but I’m going to try it tonight。

T: Great, Pitt. Well, we’ve had some good ideas about how to become inspired。

And now I'm looking forward to reading all your poems。

【课后作业参考答案】
S1：Have you heard about our school art fair？
S2：Yes，of course. My class is making a poem collection.
S1：Sounds fun。

Are you going to write something？
S2: Sure, everyone in our class is going to write a poem。

But I am kind of stuck because I can’t think of anything interesting to write about。

S1: It can’t be that difficult。

You should get yourself inspired by doing something special。

S2：What do you mean?
S1: For example, when I need inspiration，I watch movies.
S2：You know what，I think I will try out your way. Movies always give me a lot to think about. It reminds me that I plan to go to Chaoyang Park this week—end。

Maybe the pleasing scenery will be my muse。

S1：Exactly。

You should take pictures and make a scrapbook with your ideas。

That will help you write。

S2: Good idea。

When I finish my poem, you’ve got to be my first reader！。
