6 / 6 UNIT 4 课时跟踪检测(二) 语言运用综合练 Ⅰ.阅读理解 No poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed” until it has been read aloud by someone, a teacher or a 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, eventually, the most concrete “interpretation (解释)” of it, suggesting tone, rhymes, 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 the 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 and “exchanging of views”， if there isn't time for both. I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry and take it easy when we are reading a poem. Poetry is “a criticism of life”， and “a heightening (提升) of life”. It is “a most appropriate approach to the truth of feeling”， and it “can transform 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 try out poetry teaching. Those who don't like it should not be forced to convey that negative feeling to 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. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了鉴赏和学习诗歌最好的方法就是大声朗读。 1．To have a better understanding of a poem, one should ________． A．discuss it with others B．analyze it by oneself C．copy it down in a notebook D．practise reading it aloud 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第一段内容尤其是第一句“No poem should ever be discussed or ‘analy
