(while)Ⅳ.阅读理解This was no ordinary class. The students who came together were all science or engineering professors at Cornell University. They had interrupted their research to accept an invitation to take part in an unusual experiment: “an interesting week of poetry”. This class was part of a study to answer the questions: Why is science difficult for many non-science students? What can teachers learn about teaching if they take a class that is not in their field?The students in the poetry class listened to lectures and took notes. They had reading tasks and had to write three short papers. All students noticed one thing—the importance of spoken words. In science and engineering classes, the instructors put tables and drawings on the blackboard. But in this poetry class, the instructors just talked. They didn’t write anything on the board.The scientists and engineers noticed one similarity between science and poetry. In both subjects, students need to find layers of meaning. Some layers are simple, clean, and on the surface; other layers are deeper and more difficult. This search fordifferent levels of meaning doesn’t happen much in undergraduate science classes, but it is important later, in a graduate school. And it is always important in humanities(人文科学).Both the poetry instructors and their students learned something about teaching from this experience. One poetry instructor, for example, now sees the importance of using careful, clear definitions when he explains a poem. He also plans to be more informative as he teaches. Most of the scientists agreed on several points. Firstly, humanities classes might help science students to see patterns and decide which information is important. Secondly, the poetry class was fun. One engineer decided, “We need to change the way we teach engineering to make it an enjoyable experience for students.”But perhaps the most important result of the experience was this:all of the professors began to think about how they teach and how they can teach better.1. What do we know about this unusual class?A.The teachers did lots of writing on the board.B.The teachers were invited to attend several lectures.C.The students were professors from a university.D.The students were studying science and humanities.2. The experiment was designed to find out.A.how to teach the students in the science classB.whether poetry is difficult for science studentsC.what to be taught in the humanities classD.why many humanities students find science hard3. Finding levels of meaning is .A.important for graduate students in humanitiesB.difficult for graduate students in humanitiesmon for undergraduate students in scienceD.easy for undergraduate students in science4. What did the science professors learn after the experiment?A.They should change the way they teach.B.A poem could be explained in clear definitions.C.A poetry class could be more informative.D.Their teaching was an enjoyable experience.Ⅴ.语法填空阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

It's 26 heavily. A 9-year-old boy was in the car with his mother, who was 27 him to school. Suddenly, the car went off the road, 28 several times, and came to rest upside down in a ditch(沟渠) filled with water.Luckily, both the mother and son were 29 seatbelts. The mother suffered a blow to her head and was unable to move. The boy was frightened but 30 . As water came through broken windows in the car, he 31 unbuckled (解开) himself, climbed out of the 32 window, made his way around to the driver's side, and reached inside the 33 to free his trapped mother.

She recalled 39 her boy saying out loud as he pulled her through the water, “I think I can, I think I can!”It seemed 40 that this little boy's act of courage was from one of his favourite books: The Little Engine that Could.

Psychologists say that if children go through a disturbing event before the age of ten, they are three times as likely to suffer psychological problems as so teenagers. After a disaster children may become easily upset, shy, aggressive, or afraid of wind, rain, noises, or darkness. They may have trouble letting go of their parents and resist going to school or daycare. Some children may even feel guilty thinking that they somehow caused the disaster through their bad behavior. Because of such common reactions, parents and others should begin as soon after the event as possible helping these children.Some suggestions include talking to the children about what happened, letting the children express their own feelings, spending extra time with them doing activities together and reassuring them that you love them and won't leave them. For some children expressing themselves through drawing pictures or writing can be useful. Do everything possible to help children get back to a normal routine; however, don't be afraid to "spoil" these children for a while after the disaster. Let them have extra privileges and more attention than usual. Encourage the children to grieve after a loss. It should be OK for them to cry. Caring families and friends can do much to heal children victims of disasters.46. This passage is mainly about_______.A. how to help traumatized children to get overB. the bad effects disasters bring to childrenC. the psychological problems children before ten are likely to sufferD. the importance of caring families47. According to the passage, a child who has just experienced a devastating disaster may become______.A. more matureB. less dependentC. willing to helpD. ready to attack48. Which is NOT advisable when dealing with the traumatized children?A. Allowing them freedom for some time.B. Asking them to hold their feelings.C. Encouraging them to show their grief.D. Talking them into taking care of others.B篇The English policeman has several nicknames but the most frequently used are “copper” and “bobby”. The first name comes from the verb to “cop”, meaning to “take” or “capture”, and the second comes from the first name of Sir Rober t Peel, the nineteenth-century politician, who was the founder of the police force as we know it today. An early nickname for the policeman was “peeler”, but this one has died out.Whatever we may call them, the general opinion about the police seems to be a good one except, of course, among the criminal part of the community where the police are given more bad nicknames which came from America, such as “fuzz” or “pig”. Visitors to England seem, nearly always, to be very impressed by the English police. It has, in fact, become a standing joke that the visitor to Britain, when asked for his views of the country, will always say, “I think your policemen are wonderful.”Well, the British bobby may not always be wonderful but he is usually a very friendly and helpful sort of character. A music-hall song of some years ago was called, “If You Want To Know The Time, Ask A Policeman”. Nowadays, most people own watches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions to ask the policemen. In London, the policemen spend so much of their time directing visitors about the city that onewonders how they ever find time to do anything else!Two things are noticeable to the stranger, when he sees an English policeman for the first time. The first is that he does not carry a gun and the second is that he wears a very special type of helmet(头盔). His helmet, together with his height, enables an English policeman to be seen from a long distance, a fact that is not without its usefulness. From time to time it is suggested that the policeman should be given a gun and that his helmet should be taken from him, but both these suggestions are not accepted by the majority of the public and the police themselves.49.The nickname that is not used now is ___________.A.pig B.peelerC.fuzz D.bobby50.Which of the following statements is true?A.There are fewer criminals in America than in Britain.B.The English police usually leave a deep impression on visitors.C.The British bobby is friendly but not helpful.D.The English police enjoy having guns.51.If you see an English policeman for the first time, you will probably notice at once that ___________.A.he often tells people timeB.he is usually trying to tell others the timeC.he has a helmet on his headD.he wears special clothes52.In London, what do the policemen often do during their work-time nowadays? A.Direct anyone in the city B.Tell others the timeC.NothingD.Show visitors the right way in the city 53.Visitors praise the English police because ___________. A.they are armed with modern equipmentB.they wear special helmetsC.they are often given thanks by peopleD.they are polite and helpful1-5 ADDDA 6-10.CAADC11-15.DDCBB16-20BAACA 21-25 ACAAA26—45 DBACD ABCDB ACDBA CDABC46-53 ADB BBCDD。

Which is the main idea of this passage?A. Opera is famous for its long history.B. Opera is only performed for rich people.C. Opera companies are trying to keep opera alive.D. Young people are not interested in opera.27. The underlined phrase in the second paragraph means _______.A. breaking up the old rulesB. changing the dressesC. making the audience at easeD. advertising themselves28. Opera companies prefer to perform short versions because _______.A. they can be performed in public librariesB. short versions are easy to performC. it is hard to find long versionsD. they can make people interested29. The San Francisco Opera employs students in order to _______.A. celebrate its 75th anniversaryB. reduce the costsC. attract young peopleD. make Cinderella popular五、七选五(每小题3分,共15分)Top Poetry Writing TipsTips 1: Poetry involves work, rest and play.30 It involves hard work, especially in the early stage when you are deciding on the overall form and tone of the poem, and getting the bones of it onto the page. But writing poetry should be a playful activity, too. Have fun playing around with the language, the ideas and the music inside the poem.Tip 2: 31Poetry has been defined as “the best words in their best order”. Choose your words carefully for their sounds and meaning. But poetry is also about silence. Just as the white space on the page is needed to shape the pattern of words, so the thoughts that are left unsaid, the pauses, the quiet hints, will add to something extra to your poem. 32 If you have created enough solid stepping stones in words and thoughts, then the reader will follow you to the end of the poem.Tips 3: 33Poets often turn to writing a poem when they experience a strong emotion and have the need to express it. The reading of other people’s poetry can also give comfort or a sense that you are not alone in how you are feeling. But be careful not to swamp your poem with abstract emotions and don’t tell your readers how to think or feel.Tip 4: Writing poetry can be difficult to start and hard to let go.It is often difficult to know how to start a poem, but the trick is to recognize the beginnings of them, in everyday life. 34They can start from remembering a funny conversation that you’ve overheard at the bus stop; yesterday’s nightmare; a secret you’ve been told; or an interest ing postcard that you notice in a shop. If you catch yourself thinking about something for more than a minute or two, that’s when you reach for a pen and some paper and starting jotting down(匆匆记下) thoughts, words and phrases.A. Don’t be scared of the gaps that you leave.B. Poetry needs an emotion and a control of it.C. Poetry requires both words and silence.D. Writing a good poem rarely comes easily.E.

Unit 2 Poems单元综合测评(时间:100分钟分值:120分)选择题部分Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
ANo poem should ever be discussed or “analysed”, 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 the tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once.Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on records or on films, is obviously a special reward.But even those aids to teaching cannot 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 “analysing” 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”, and “heightening (提升) of life”.It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”, and it “can save your 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.To have a better understanding of a poem, one should .A.discuss it with othersB.analyse it by oneselfC.copy it down in a notebookD.practise reading it aloud2.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a function of poetry?A.Extending your life.B.Saving your life.C.Criticizing life.D.Heightening life.3.The underline d phrase “make room” in the last paragraph could be best replaced by “”.A.build a roomB.provide equipmentC.leave a certain amount of timeD.set aside enough spaceBOne early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again. My interest was aroused only by the fact that theword “Poems” appeared in big, hot pink letters.“Is it good?” I asked her.“Yeah,” she answered. “There’s one I really like and you’ll like it, too.” I leaned forward.“‘Patty Poem’,” she read the title. Who is Patty? I wondered. The poem began:She never puts her toys away,Just leaves them scattered(散乱的) where they lay…The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:When she grows and gathers poise(稳重),I’ll miss her harum-scarum(莽撞的) noise,And look in vain(徒劳地) for scattered toys.And I’ll be sad.A terrible sorrow washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock.“It’s you, honey,” my mother said sadly.To my mother, the poem revealed a parent’s affection when her child grows up and leaves. To me, the “she” in the poem was a horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible that I burst out crying.“What’s wrong?” m y mother asked.“Oh mama,” I cried. “I don’t want to grow up ever!”She smiled. “Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll still love you, okay?”“Okay.” I was still weeping. My panic had gone. But I could not help thinkin g about that silly poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was confused. It all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple that I could plainly understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated by the idea of poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.I have since fallen in love with other poems, but “Patty Poem” remains my poem. After all, “Patty Poem” gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my spirits, but because it was the one that hurt me the most.4.Why was the writer attracted by the book Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again?A. It was a thick enough book.B. Her mother was reading it with interest.C. Something on its cover caught her eye.D. It had a meaningful title.5.After her mother read the poem to her, the writer felt at first.A. excitedB. sadC. horrifiedD. confused6.The writer’s mother liked to read “Patty Poem” probably bec ause.A. it reflected her own childhoodB. it was written in simple languageC. it was composed by a famous poetD. it gave her a hint of what would happen7.It can be concluded from the passage that “Patty Poem” leads the writer to .A. discover the power of poetryB. recognize her love for puzzlesC. find her eagerness to grow upD. experience great homesicknessCEven if you don’t have to work,eat or sleep,you won’t be able to get through all information on blogs and social networks.The problem we face is that much of this information seems very interesting at first glance. Actually,much of the information is unimportant,disposable and it distracts(分心) us from more meaningful pursuits.Worse still,when we spend lots of time consuming information from our social media streams,we may find it hard to concentrate on what we’re doing and we have a tendency to forget what we have consumed anyway.A new study from Sweden’s KTH Royal Institute of Technology has found that too much social media exposure actually reduces your ability to process information and depletes your short-term working memory.Our working memory plays a critical role in our capacity to filter information and remember what is valuable but it is not a limitless resource.Erik Fransén,a professor in computer science at KTH and the leader of this new study on social media overload, says this can explain why our capacity for processing information begins to fail when we attempt to stuff more information in the working memory.In fact,when you try to process the information like the speech or video,you are going to need partly the same system of working memory,so you are reducing your own working memory capacity.And when you try to store many things in your working memory,you get less good at processing information.It is the periods of downtime of your brain—preferably disconnected from the distractions of your computer or smartphone—that are needed for memory consolidation and transferring important information to your exposure to new information.Besides,you can empty your mind of thoughts quickly to relax completely,go for a short walk or spend a few minutes listening to music.This will help you improve your capacity to process information and increase your productivity.8.What can we learn about social media overload from Paragraph 1?A.It distracts our attention.B.It is beneficial to us.C.It brings us whatever we want.D.It keeps us informed of everything.9.Why does your capacity for processing information begin to fail sometimes?A.Much of the information is unimportant.B.You don’t make the most of your brain.C.You’re less good at processing information.D.Your working memory is a limited resource.10.What does the underlined word “downtime” in the last paragraph proba bly mean?A.Support.B.Relaxation.C.Increase.D.Loss.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
2019-2020学年人教版选修六 Unit2 Poems 单元测试试题
选修六Unit2 Poems(本卷满分100分)一、阅读理解(每小题2分,共16分)ATang Dynasty poets sang for about three centuries in different tones. There were many famous poets living in the Tang period such as Li Bai, Du Fu, Bai Juyi and Li Shangyin. Poems of the Tang Dynasty edited in the Qing Dynasty is a collection of more than 48,900 poem that were written by over 2,200 poets. But it didn’t cover all the poems of the Tang Dynasty.During the Tang Dynasty, poems were recited when lovers walked under the moonlight. Poems were also recited when soldiers fought on the battlefield. People recited them in the open air or at temple fairs.Tang Dynasty poets wrote poems to win fame and also to develop their temperament(性情). They poured out deep feelings for their friends and criticized in injustice in the world through poems.In the Tang Dynasty scholars had to be poets. Their readers were not only people of high social position but also common people. Poets recited poems, women singers sang poems and other ranks of people, including old women and children, read Tang poems. This atmosphere affected foreigners who visited the country at that time. As a result, Tang poetry was introduced to some adjacent countries, like Japan and Vietnam.Tang poetry is a most brilliant page in the history of ancient Chinese literature. It’s a miracle in the cultural history of mankind. The Tang Dynasty was a powerful empire with a vast territory. It inherited(继承) Chinese civilization that went back to ancient times, was combined with the best of other cultures and adopted the benefits of other nations in the world. Tang poetry wasn’t the only spiritual wealth created by the Tang Dynasty people. Philosophy and religion, handwriting and painting and music and dance all gained new peaks of development. Tang poetry, however, was the jewel in the crown and its greatest achievement.1. We can conclude from the passage that ________.A. only people in the Tang Dynasty created poemsB. in total there were four famous poets in the Tang DynastyC. the Tang Dynasty probably existed for about three centuriesD. in the Tang Dynasty most common people were poets2. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Why the poets created poems.B. Some other kinds of spiritual wealth in the Tang Dynasty.C. The significance and influence of the Tang Dynasty.D. The editors of Poems of the Tang Dynasty.3. The underlined word “adjacent” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.A. strongB. neighboringC. poorD. rich4. What does the author really want to tell us in Paragraph 4?A. Tang Dynasty poems were quite popular.B. In the Tang Dynasty all scholars were poets.C. Many foreigners came to our country during the Tang Dynasty.D. In the Tang Dynasty many poems were sung by women singers.BWhen I was young, my mother didn’t have the money to send me to school, but she thought it was important for me to keep up with education. So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself. But because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was at 4:30 in the morning.We need every one of you to develop your talents and your skills so that you can help us old folks solve our most difficult problems. If you quit on school—you’re not just quitting on yourself, but you’re quitting on your country. No one’s written your destiny(命运) for you, because you write your own destiny. You make your own future. That’s why today I’m calling on each of you to set your own goals for your education and do everything you can to meet them.Your goal can be something as simple as doing all your homework, paying attention in class, or spending some time reading a book.But whatever you decide to do, I want you to commit to it. I want you to really work at it. I know that sometimes you get that sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star. No one’s born being good at all things. You become good at things through hard work. You’re not a good athlete the first time you play a new sport. You don’t hit every note the first time you sing a song. You’ve got to practise.5. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. The writer’s home was very rich.B. The writer’s mother was a teacher.C. The writer was born in a poor family.D. The writer didn’t like reading books.6. What does the writer want everyone to do by improving their talents and skills?A. To quit on their country to earn more money.B. To help solve the most difficult problems.C. To write their own new destiny by working as a TV star.D. To spend some time writing books about their own life.7. Why does the writer call on everyone to set his/her own goal?A. Because everyone’s future is determined by themselves.B. Because everyone’s future is to do simple work.C. Because everyone should do their homework.D. Because everyone should pay attention in class.11. How can people realise their great dreams?A. By rapping.B. By playing basketball.C. By being a reality star.D. By working hard.二、七选五(每小题2分,共10分)Teach Yourself How to Play a Musical InstrumentIf you’re low on cash but interested in learning how to play a new musical instrument, consider some of these tips.Set a goal for yourself.9 Is it to form a rock band with your friends, play with an orchestra, write music, or to simply play for your own enjoyment? Be realistic about your goals when you’re just starting to learn how to play a new instrument. 10Research different instruments.Choosing an instrument takes more than just picking the one that looks the most impressive. There can be many variations(变化) in range as well as other factors that affect the sound like the number of strings on a guitar or bass. 11 If so, you can see which one you’re most comfortable with.Take lessons.Consider learning how to play a musical instrument by yourself. There are plenty of books, training videos, and online resources available. They can teach you how to play most instruments. 12 Takeyour time while learning, but set aside some time at least every week so that you practise good habits and stay motivated. Once you’ve mastered basic skills, you’ll be well on your way to mastering your chosen instrument.Never stop learning.Sometimes it might be frustrating to make little progress or tiresome to keep up with practising. 13 Work hard at what you want to do and always keep improving.A. What’s more, many of them are completely free.B. Consider carefully what kind of lessons you want.C. Think over what you would like to get out of this experience.D. Therefore, you have got pleasure from playing the instrument.E. However, remember you had a goal that you wanted to achieve.F. Most importantly, before you buy, consider trying them out for a bit first.G. It can be time-consuming at first, but the results can be even more rewarding.三、完形填空(每小题1.5分,共30分)In February of 2005, Phil Belfiore was teaching one of Robert Frost’s poems “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”.

Ⅱ.阅读理解Long ago, poems were recited out loud instead of being written down. When the Greeks first started the Olympics, they held poetry contests as well as athletic competitions.Now, poetry competitions have been revived (恢复). This year 120,000 highschool students competed in the first Poetry Out Loud National Recitation Contest, performing poems from memory for $100,000 in prizes.The first competitions were held in classrooms. The winners went on to schoolwide contests, and then they competed in city and state competitions. Finally, the 50 state champions, along with the District of Columbia champion, came to Washington D.C. last week for the last showdown. After the 51 champions competed against one another,12 went on to the finals. Then the field was narrowed to five.The final five had one last chance to “perform” a poem. The overall champ, Jackson Hille, a high school senior from Ohio, won a $20,000 scholarship.The National Endowment for the Arts and the Poetry Foundation started Poetry Out Loud because they realized that hearing a poem performed is a different experience from reading it on a page.It’s not just a matter of saying the words in the right order. It’s the tone of voice, the pauses, the gestures, and the attitude of the person performing that bring the words to life. “Each time we hear somebody recite a poem, we find something fresh and interesting about it,” says N ational Public Radio broadcaster Scott Simon, master of ceremonies for the finals. Hearing it in a new voice offers something new to the listener.Not only do the people hearing poems have a new experience, memorizing and presenting poems helps the participants understand those poems in a new way. Another benefit of a competition such as Poetry Out Loud is that the participants learn public-speaking skills that can help them for life.1. From the first paragraph, we can know.A.the Greeks were the first to write poemsB.the Olympics used to start with poem recitingC.poems were spread orally in the pastD.athletes were asked to recite poems before competing2.

Unit 2 Poems话题诵读日积月累【导语】英国19世纪湖畔诗人华兹华斯是英国浪漫主义诗歌的代表人物之一,曾被誉为“桂冠诗人”,他开创的新鲜活泼的浪漫主义诗风影响了一代又一代直至今日的诗人。
William Wordsworth —Poet-Laureate (桂冠诗人)William Wordsworth was a major English Romantic poet who with Samuel Taylor Coleridge helped to launch the Romantic Age in English literature ・Wordsworth,born in the Lake District,was the son of a lawyer.He went to school first at Penrith and then at Hawkshead Grammar School before studying from 1787, at St John's College Cambridge—all of the periods were later to be described in The Preludein 1790 he went with friends on a walking tour to France the Alps and Italy,before arriving in France where Wordsworth was to spend the next year.While in France he fell in love twice over:once with a young French woman, Annette Vallon, who bore him a daughte,and then, once more,with the French Revolution .Returning to England he wrote,and left unpublished, his Letter to the Bishopof Llandaff—a short piece of writing in support of the French Revolutionary cause .In 1795, after receiving a legacy, Wordsworth lived with his sister Dorothy first in Dorset and then at AlfoxdenSomerse t close to Coleridge.In these years he wrote many of his greatest poems and also travelled with Coleridge and Dorothy,in the winter of 1798-1799,to Germany.Two years later the second edition of Lyrical Ballads appeared in 1801,just one year before Wordsworth married Mary Hutchinson.This was followed,in 1807,by the publication ofPoems in T w o Volumes,which included the poems Resolution and Independenceand Intimations of Immortality from Recollectionsof Early Childhood.During this period he also made new friendships with Walter Scott,Sir G.H.Beaumont and De Quincy,wrote such poems as ElegaicStanzas(1807),and fathered five children.He received a civil list pension in 1842 and was made poelat-ureate just one year later.Today Wordsworth's poetry remains widely read.Its universal appeal is perhaps best explained by Wordsworth' s own words on the role,for him,of poetry; what he called “the most philosophical of all writing ”whose object is “ truth carried alive into the heart by■ »passion”.【词海拾贝】1. launch v.发起2. legacy n.遗产3. pension n. 养老金4. philosophical adj.哲学的5. passion n.热情【问题思考】True (T) or False (F):1.

它不属于英诗的传统形式,但是在用英语写作的人们中间,这种诗也是很流行的。
它容易写,而且像五行诗一样,它可以用最少的词语呈现出一幅清晰的画面,表达出一种特殊的感情。
(F和G)两首俳句诗就是从日文翻译出来的。
F落下的花朵回到了树枝上。
瞧啊,是个蝴蝶!(作者:Moritake)G雪儿融化了,整个村庄充满着欢乐的儿童。

下面这首唐诗(H)就是从中文翻译过来的。
H望夫石望夫处,江悠悠。
化为石,不回头。
山头日日风复雨,行人归来石应语。
(作者:王健)有了这么多可供选择的诗歌类型,学生们最终也许想自己作诗了。
写诗比你想象的要容易,绝对值得一试。

A Shanghai writer named Jin Yucheng surprised nearly everyone by making his new novel full of the Shanghai dialect (方言).Published in 2012, the 350,000word Blossoms is a novel about the changes in Shanghai over 30 years, drawing clear images of the city through the stories of many common people. There is no main story like most novels, but every story in it could run independently. While Putonghua is the standard choice for Chinese literature today, Jin's use of the Shanghai dialect appears both different and bold.“I have seen too many novels that look similar to each other. Chinese literature is getting monotonous both in language and form. I want to be special with my own language,” Jin told the Global Times.In the novel, Jin makes a breakthrough by mainly using dialogues to unfold various plots and represent typical characters on a daily basis. He also abandons the use of some punctuation like quotation marks (引号), showing a return to the traditional Chinese huaben (话本) genre.Since its publication, the book has been widely recommended on Sina Weibo with many netizens rating the novel high for its unique use of the dialect and vivid description of life using plain speech.Jin said that he got the idea of writing the novel while chatting in an online forum where people use the Shanghai dialect. The praise he received from the netizens encouraged him to continue writing the random stories.“I'd like to see more writers to follow my lead. It will enrich our literature and make it diverse,” he said.篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文,讲述了上海作家金宇澄的小说《繁花》。
