Before the flowers are in full blossom, here is a collection of ancient Chinese poems depicting the revival of life during spring. The English translations used in this article are from Chinese translator Xu Yuanchong.

1.Spring Morning

—by Meng Haoran(689—740) of the Tang Dynasty (618—907)

2.Written in a Village South of the Capital

—by Cui Hu(772—846) of the Tang Dynasty

　　In this house on this day last year, a pink face vied,

(2020山东青岛高一期末五校联考,)

　　Food poems, like love poems, have the potential to be vague and sad. The New York Times' description of a book of food poetry refers to Winston Churchill's supposed declaration, “Take away this pudding. It has no theme.” This, of course, is a sad comment on food. Yes, eating can be mere gluttony (暴饮暴食) at times—we've all had late-night chocolate or thoroughly enjoyed McDonald's breakfast hash browns (土豆煎饼). In fact, writers like Daniel Orozco paint poetic pictures of these sorts of food—the thrill and shame of junk food.

Food poetry can be unbelievably described, inspiring feelings of pleasure and homesickness in the same way as eating does. It can also be straightforward or playful—just like food itself. Shell Silverstein's Italian Food starts off with, “Oh, how I love Italian food/I eat it all the time/Not just, cause how good it tastes/But, cause how good it rhymes” and continues in rhyming couplets(对句) for the remainder of the poem.

　　Other food poems—certainly the best ones—have layers of complexity that are slowly revealed, like eating a perfectly assembled sandwich or skillfully mixed drink. Henrick Ibsen's Tea—A Comparison from Love's Comedy begins with a pleasant garden gathering but quickly delves into the scenery and politics of Eastern nations, from which the tea has been imported.

Still other food poems are simple collections of the poet's most beloved meal, like Carlos Williams' loyalty to caviar(鱼子酱),For Viola: De Gustibus. He writes, “Beloved you are/Caviar of Caviar/Of all I love you best.” Similarly, Jonathan Swift declares his love for mutton in the emotional cooking poem: How I Shall Dine.

Kevin Young, the editor of The Hungry Ear, a collection of food poetry published last year, explains poets' love for food: “One of the things I think poets enjoy about a great meal is that it goes away...that you make a terrific meal for friends and family, and if you succeed, it's gone.”

4.What can be inferred from the first paragraph?

A.Winston Churchill doesn't like puddings.

B.Food poems and love poems are the same.

C.Eating is a bad subject in terms of poetry.

D.Many people like junk food despite its harm.

5.Why does the author refer to Shell Silverstein's poem?

A.To suggest that Shell Silverstein is the best poet.

B.To prove that food poems have some complexity.

C.To show that food poetry can be straightforward or playful.

D.To show how Shell Silverstein likes Italian food.

6.Henrick Ibsen's poem in the third paragraph is one that 　　　. 

A.slowly reveals some complexity             B.introduces where tea has been imported

C.is referred to as the best food poem        D.talks about a pleasant garden gathering

7.Who writes about his favorite meal?

A.Henrick Ibsen.　　B.Carlos Williams. 

C.Kevin Young.　　D.Shell Silverstein.

Ⅱ.七选五

(2020浙江宁波高一九校联考,)

Poetry is the artistic expression of the human thoughts and feelings in rhythmic and emotional language.　1　. As its language is rhythmic, its sound is highly musical. We may say, “　2　”, whether the rhythm of poetry is traditional as in metrical (格律的) style or “natural” as in free verse. 

So the poet must write carefully and reflectively in order to find words that not only fulfill the demands of the meter and rhyme, but also express the meaning in a manner that complements the imagery and tone of the rest of the poem. 　3　. 

　4　. The poet is an artisan who creates a fieldstone hearth (散石壁炉炉床)—each stone or each word is turned over, examined, and often laid aside until it can be placed where its shape, weight, and color will contribute to the strength and beauty of the whole. Prose, according to Samuel Taylor Coleridge, is “words in their best order”, and poetry is “the best words in their best order”.  

　5　, which comes from many metrical patterns represented in conventional iambic (抑扬格的) feet or from repetitions (重复) and parallel phrasing shown in free verse and from other elements of poetry.  

A.No rhythm, no poetry

B.There is no limit on the use of rhythm

C.The reader's chief delight in reading poetry comes from his response to its musical effect

D.This careful use of language is the most significant difference between ordinary prose and poetry

E.Compared with prose (散文), it lays more stress on rhythm, imagery, emotion, and imagination

F.Many poets use these ways to impress their emotions and show the importance of rhythm in poetry

G.The ordinary prose writer neatly builds an argument using words the way a mason builds a house using bricks

Ⅰ.A

◎语篇解读　本文是一篇应用文,分享了五首与春天有关的古诗的翻译。

1.C　细节理解题。根据文章中的信息Meng Haoran (689—740) of the Tang Dynasty, Cui Hu (772—846) of the Tang Dynasty, Du Fu(712—770) of the Tang Dynasty, Bai Juyi (772—846) of the Tang Dynasty,Wang Wei (701—761) of the Tang Dynasty可知,A、B、D三项的表述均符合文意。C项“王维是寿命最短的人”与文意不符,孟浩然才是。故选C项。

2.C　细节理解题。根据常识和诗歌的内容可知,Dreaming of the Southern Shore《 忆江南 》中提到了river:At sunrise riverside flowers redder than fire...green waves grow as blue as sapphire。故选C项。

3.D　推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,本文目的是分享许渊冲老先生的古诗翻译。A项“渴望温暖的日子”、B项“在春天享受生命的复苏”以及C项“让我们了解许渊冲”不是作者的写作目的。故选D项。

【高频词汇】　1.blossom n.花簇;花朵 v.开花　2.ancient adj.古代的;古老的　3.revival n.复苏,复兴　4.adore v.热爱,爱慕　5.admire vt.仰慕;钦佩;欣赏

B

◎语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了一些关于食物的诗歌。

4.D　推理判断题。根据第一段最后两句,尤其是the thrill and shame of junk food可推知,虽然垃圾食品对健康有害,但是很多人喜欢垃圾食品。A项“温斯顿·丘吉尔不喜欢布丁”、B项“美食诗和爱情诗是一样的”以及C项“就诗歌而言,吃是一个不好的主题”不符合文意。故选D项。

5.C　推理判断题。根据题干可定位到第二段,由第二句可知,作者举这个例子是为了说明关于食物的诗歌可以是直白的、带点开玩笑性质的。A项“为了表明谢尔·希尔弗斯坦是最好的诗人”、B项“为了证明美食诗有些复杂”以及D项“为了展示谢尔·希尔弗斯坦有多喜欢意大利菜”都不是作者提及Shell Silverstein的诗歌的原因。故选C项。

6.A　推理判断题。根据第三段第一句可知,本段介绍的是逐渐表现出复杂性的诗歌。下面举了Henrick Ibsen 的例子,可见他的诗歌具有这一特点。B项“介绍茶叶的进口地”、C项“被称作最好的美食诗”以及D项“谈论一个愉快的花园聚会”不符合文意。故选A项。

Ⅱ.◎语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。诗歌是人类思想感情的艺术表现,是一种有节奏、有情感的语言。

1.E　该空所在的段落主要介绍了诗歌的特点,因此E项(与散文相比较,它更强调节奏、意象、情感和想象力)符合段落所表达的主题。故选E项。

2.A　该段重点突出rhythm(韵律)在诗歌中的作用,无论是在传统诗歌还是在自由体诗中,“没有韵律,就没有诗歌”。因此A项符合上下文的语境,故选A项。

3.D　该段主要介绍了诗人选词的方式。由本段的开头So the poet must write carefully可知,诗人必须仔细地写,因此D项符合上下文的语境,该选项中的careful也是一个很好的提示词。故选D项。

4.G　该段通过诗歌与散文的对比,表现出诗歌的语言特色。根据该段的内容和常识可以判断,该空应该是关于散文的,并结合后面的stone及选项可以判断,G项符合语境。故选G项。

5.C　由后面非限制性定语从句的内容可以判断,诗歌的格律能产生音乐效果,因此C项(读者读诗的主要乐趣来自他对诗歌音乐效果的反应)符合语境。故选C项。

【高频词汇】　1.expression n.表露;表达;表示;表情　2.fulfill v.实现,履行　3.complement v.补充,补足;使更具吸引力     4.contribute to增进,有助于
