能力提升阅读理解No poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed”，until it has been read aloud by someone，teacher or student.Better still，perhaps，is the practice of reading it twice，once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end，so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.All discussions of poetry are，in fact，preparations for reading it aloud，and the reading of the poem is finally，the most telling “interpretation” of it，suggesting tone，rhythm，and meaning all at once.Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice，on records or on film，is obviously a special reward.But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it or，best of all，reciting it.I have come to think，in fact，that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it，if there isn’t time for both.I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry.Poetry is “a criticism of life”“a heightening of life”．It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry.Those who don’t like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else.But those，who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature，about its sound as well as its sense，and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.1．According to the passage，to have a better understanding of a poem，the best way is .A．to discuss it with othersB．to analyze it by oneselfC．to hear it read outD．to practice reading it aloud2．The best explanation for the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 should be .A．we should end the analyzing of the poem by reading it aloudB．students should read the poem at the end of poem classC．we feel the original meaning of the author by hearing the poem read aloud after discussion D．sometimes the sound of the poem represents the meaning of it3．What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply (暗示)?A．The teaching of poetry should have been much more stressed.B．The teaching of poetry is more important than the teaching of any other subject.C．One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry.D．Poetry is the foundation of all languages and literature courses.4．The underlined phrase “make room”in the last paragraph can be best replaced by “”．A．build a boothB．provide equipmentC．leave a certain amount of timeD．set aside enough space5．Which is NOT true of the following according to the passage?A．A poem should be discussed or “analyzed”．B．All discussions of poetry are preparations for reading it aloud.C．The writer thinks reading a poem aloud is much less important than “analyzing” it.D．The writer thinks that teachers must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it while teaching poetry.答案基础落实Ⅰ.1.D 2.C 3.A 4.D 5.C 6.AⅡ.1.various 2.a 3.themselves 4.whose5.simplest6.giving7.with8.but9.which10.another Ⅲ.1.in 2.like；on 3.By；with 4.of；of 5.With；in 6．with7.above8.in9.into10.from；ofⅣ.1.tease 2.transformed 3.make sense of 4.stayed up 5．popular with 6.conveyⅤ.1.in particular 2.stay up 3.been translated into 4．running out of 5.is made up of 6.Take it easyⅥ.1.our new teacher 2.With so much work to do3．Were she my daughter 4.in a way that amuses us all5．wasn’t the red one but能力提升1．D2．C3．A4．C5．C。
