How do polyglots learn languages ?
How many languages do you speak? For most people, it can be hard learning just one foreign language. Lydia Machova, a Slovakian polyglot and language mentor, is currently fluent in seven foreign languages and says she likes to learn a new language every two years! So how do polyglots like Lydia learn multiple languages successfully, and what can we learn from their methods?
Lydia wanted to find out the different techniques polyglots use, and she found a wide variety of methods. Some use language exchange apps to find native speakers so that they can start speaking from day one. Others watch series they love with subtitles, and some use techniques like ‘shadowing’—listening to and repeating target language to master pronunciation. Kato Lomb was described by the linguist Krashen as “possibly the most accomplished polyglot in the world”. She was a Hungarian who spoke 16 languages! Her approach to learning focussed on extensive reading and self-study. So, while there are lots of different approaches, in her 2019 TED Talk, Lydia concluded that the one thing polyglots all have in common is an interest and motivation to learn.
However, some linguists argue that viral videos showing polyglots switching between languages often rely on memorised phrases rather than proving genuine conversational ability. Benny Lewis, author and creator of the website Fluent in 3 Months, thinks it’s important to be open and honest about your competency in a language. Hediscusses having varying levels of proficiency in the languages he speaks, from basic conversation to near-native fluency.
So, the professionals say enjoy yourself when learning. We recommend you try some of these suggestions, find the right method for you and stick to it!
【译文欣赏】
通晓多门语言的人是如何学习语言的?
你会说几种语言?对于大多数人来说,学习一门外语可能很难。Lydia Machova是一名斯洛伐克多语言者和语言导师,目前精通七门外语,她说她喜欢每两年学习一门新语言!那么,像莉迪亚这样的多语者是如何成功学习多种语言的,我们能从他们的方法中学到什么呢?
Lydia想了解多语言者使用的不同技术,她发现了各种各样的方法。有些人使用语言交换应用程序来寻找母语人士,这样他们就可以从第一天开始说话。其他人观看他们喜欢的带有字幕的连续剧,有些人使用“影子”等技巧——听和重复目标语言来掌握发音。语言学家克拉申(Krashen)将加藤·隆(Kato Lomb)描述为“可能是世界上最有成就的多语者”。她是匈牙利人,会说16种语言!她的学习方法侧重于泛读和自学。因此,尽管有很多不同的方法,但在2019年的TED演讲中,Lydia得出结论,多语言者的一个共同点是学习的兴趣和动力。
然而,一些语言学家认为,显示多语言者在语言之间切换的病毒视频通常依赖于记忆短语,而不是证明真正的会话能力。Benny Lewis是Fluent in 3 Months网站的作者和创建者,他认为对自己的语言能力持开放和诚实的态度很重要。他谈到,从基本的对话到近乎母语的流利程度,他所说的语言的熟练程度各不相同。
所以,专业人士说,在学习时享受自己。我们建议您尝试其中的一些建议,找到适合您的方法并坚持下去!

(2024·全国甲卷·高考真题)“I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor. It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof. Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not. He suggested I think about the difference between endings that I wanted for the characters and endings that were right for the characters, endings that satisfied the story even if they didn’t have a traditionally positive outcome. Of course, I would have preferred a different ending for Tom and Maggie Tulliver, but the ending they got did make the most sense for them.
This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again. From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance. If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery (悬疑小说). One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction. Choosing what to read became easier.
But writing the end — that’s hard. It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers. You have to balance creating an ending that's unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.
That’s why this issue (期) of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing. If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing. Elizabeth Sims analyzes the final chapters of five great novels to see what key points they include and how you can adapt them for your work.
This issue won’t tell you what your ending should be — that’s up to you and the story you’re telling — but it might provide what you need to get there.
1.Why did the author go to Prof. Gracie?
A.To discuss a novel. B.To submit a book report.
C.To argue for a writer. D.To ask for a reading list.
2.What did the author realize after seeing Gracie?
A.Writing is a matter of personal preferences.
B.Readers are often carried away by character.
C.Each type of literature has its unique end.
D.A story which begins well will end well.
3.What is expected of a good ending?
A.It satisfies readers’ taste. B.It fits with the story development.
C.It is usually positive. D.It is open for imagination.
4.Why does the author mention Peter Mountford and Elizabeth Sims?
A.To give examples of great novelists. B.To stress the theme of this issue.
C.To encourage writing for the magazine. D.To recommend their new books.
【答案】1.A 2.C 3.B 4.B
【知识点】哲理感悟、阅读 、议论文
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章首先通过作者与教授关于小说结局的讨论引发了对结局的思考,接着阐述了不同类型的文学作品结局的特点,最后提出了写作好的结局的重要性并介绍了《Writer’s Digest》杂志如何帮助作家写出更好的结尾。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段““I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor. It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof. Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not.( “我不喜欢这个结局,”我对我最喜欢的大学教授说。那是我大三的时候,我正在做一项关于维多利亚文学的独立研究。我刚刚读完乔治·艾略特的《弗洛斯河上的磨坊》,读到结尾我很伤心。格雷西教授耐心地让我考虑一下,不要只看我喜不喜欢)”可知,作者去找格雷西教授是为了讨论小说。故选A项。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段“This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again. From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance. If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery (悬疑小说). One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction. Choosing what to read became easier.( 这对我来说是一个顿悟的时刻,我再也没有想过同样的结局。从那时起,如果我想读一个保证幸福的结局,我就会选一部爱情小说。如果我想要一个我猜不到的结局,我会选一本神秘小说。一种是我知道会发生什么,历史小说。选择读什么变得更容易了)”可知,见过格雷西教授后,作者意识到了每种类型的文学都有其独特的结局。故选C项。
3.推理判断题。根据第三段“But writing the end—that’s hard. It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers. You have to balance creating an ending that’s unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.(但是写出结局——那很难。对作家来说很难,因为结局对读者来说意义重大。你必须平衡创造一个不可预测的结局,但这个结局又不能显得凭空而来,要适合角色的设定)”可知,人们对一个好结局的期望是结局又不能显得凭空而来,要适合角色的设定,也就是符合故事的发展。故选B项。
4.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“That’s why this issue (期) of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing. If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing. Elizabeth Sims analyzes the final chapters of five great novels to see what key points they include and how you can adapt them for your work.( 这就是为什么这期《Writer’s Digest》旨在帮助你找出如何为你正在写的任何类型的作品写出最好的结局。如果是短篇小说,彼得·蒙特福德分解了六种技巧,你可以尝试看看哪一种能帮助你完美着陆。伊丽莎白·西姆斯分析了五部伟大小说的最后几章,看看它们包含了哪些关键点,以及你如何将它们应用到你的作品中)”可知,作者提到彼得·蒙福德和伊丽莎白·西姆斯是为了强调这期《Writer’s Digest》的主题,即帮助读者写出更好的结尾。故选B项。
(
(一)词汇积累是基础
(二)攻克长难句,理清文章脉络
1. 学会分析句子结构:长难句往往包含多个从句、修饰成分等,我们要学会找出句子的主干部分(主谓宾等),然后再分析各个修饰成分与主干的关系。 比如,“The book, which was written by a famous author and has been translated into many languages, tells an inspiring story.”这句话的主干就是“The book tells an inspiring story.”,而“which was written by a famous author and has been translated into many languages”是一个定语从句,用来修饰先行词“the book”。
2. 巧用语法知识:掌握基本的语法规则对于理解长难句至关重要。比如,通过识别从句引导词(如that, which, who等)来判断从句类型,利用分词作定语、状语的特点来分析句子成分等。在日常学习中,要多做一些长难句分析的练习,提高自己的语法运用能力。
(三)阅读技巧要掌握
1. 先读题目,后读文章: 在做阅读理解CD篇时,先快速浏览一遍题目和选项,了解文章大致要考查的内容和方向。这样在阅读文章时就可以有针对性地去寻找关键信息,提高阅读效率。例如,如果题目问到文章中某个人物的观点,那我们在阅读文章时就要重点关注该人物出现的段落以及相关表述。
2. 略读与精读相结合: 略读是指快速浏览文章,抓住文章的主旨大意、段落首句和尾句等关键信息,了解文章的大致框架。精读则是针对题目所涉及的具体内容,对相关段落进行仔细研读,分析句子含义,理解细节信息。比如,在略读一篇关于环保措施的文章时,我们可以通过各段落首句了解到文章分别介绍了政府的政策、企业的行动以及个人的参与等方面的内容;当遇到题目问到企业采取了哪些具体环保措施时,就需要对相关段落进行精读,找出准确答案。
(四)把握文章主旨,准确答题
1. 关注文章开头和结尾:很多文章的主旨大意都会在开头部分提出,结尾部分进行总结或升华。所以,在阅读过程中要特别留意文章的首段和尾段,从中提炼出文章的核心观点。例如,一篇文章开头写道:“In modern society, the issue of environmental protection has become increasingly urgent.”结尾又提到:“Only by taking collective actions can we hope to solve the environmental problems and create a better future.”从这里我们就可以大致判断出文章的主旨是关于现代社会中环境保护的重要性以及需要采取集体行动来解决问题。
2. 结合各段落大意:除了开头和结尾,各段落的大意也对把握文章主旨有很大帮助。我们可以在略读文章时,简单概括每个段落的主要内容,然后将这些内容综合起来,进一步明确文章的主旨。比如,一篇文章分别从不同角度介绍了智能手机对人们生活的影响,我们通过概括各段落大意,如智能手机对社交的影响、对学习的影响、对娱乐的影响等,就能准确把握文章整体是在探讨智能手机在生活各方面所带来的影响这一主旨。
(五)排除干扰项,提高答题准确率
1. 分析选项特点:高考英语阅读理解的选项设置通常会有一些干扰项,这些干扰项往往具有与原文部分相似、表述绝对化、偷换概念等特点。我们要学会仔细分析每个选项,找出其与原文的差异和不合理之处。例如,原文说“Most people prefer to travel by train during holidays.”,选项中如果出现“All people prefer to travel by train during holidays.”,“All”这个绝对化的表述就与原文不符,可直接排除。
2. 回原文验证:对于难以判断的选项,一定要回原文中找到相应的出处进行验证。不能仅凭感觉或印象就做出选择,要确保所选答案在原文中有确凿的依据。比如,当遇到一个选项说某件事情发生的原因是A,但我们不确定时,就需要回到原文中去查找关于这件事情原因的相关表述,看是否真的是A。
三、实战演练,巩固技巧
光说不练假把式,同学们在掌握了这些技巧之后,一定要通过大量的实战演练来加以巩固。可以选择历年高考真题、高质量的模拟试题等进行练习,在练习过程中不断运用所学技巧,分析自己的答题情况,总结经验教训,逐步提高自己的阅读理解能力。
同时,做完题目后要认真分析错题原因,是因为词汇不认识、长难句没理解,还是阅读技巧运用不当等,针对不同的原因采取相应的改进措施。

参考译文:
“我不喜欢这个结局,”我对我最喜欢的大学教授说。那是我大三的时候,我正在做一项关于维多利亚文学的独立研究。我刚刚读完乔治·艾略特的《弗洛斯河上的磨坊》,读到结尾我很伤心。格雷西教授耐心地让我考虑一下,不要只看我喜不喜欢。他建议我思考我想要的角色结局和适合角色的结局之间的区别,即满足故事的结局,即使它们没有传统的积极结果。当然,我更希望汤姆和玛吉·特利佛有一个不同的结局,但他们得到的结局对他们来说确实是最合理的。 这对我来说是一个顿悟的时刻,我再也不会像以前那样看待结局了。从那时起,如果我想读一个保证幸福的结局,我就会选一部爱情小说。如果我想要一个我猜不到的结局,我会选一本悬疑小说。如果我想读知道大概会发生什么事情的小说,则会选择历史小说。选择读什么变得更容易了。 但是写结尾是很难的。这对作家来说很难,因为结局对读者来说太重要了。你必须平衡创造一个不可预测的结局,但似乎不是凭空而来的,一个适合角色的结局。 这就是为什么本期《作家文摘》旨在帮助你弄清楚如何为你正在做的任何一种写作写出最好的结局。如果是短篇小说,彼得蒙特福德给出了六种技巧,你可以试着看看哪一种能帮助你坚持着落。伊丽莎白·西姆斯分析了五部伟大小说的最后几章,看看它们包含了什么关键点,以及你如何将它们改编成你的作品。 这期杂志不会告诉你你的结局应该是什么——这取决于你和你讲述的故事——但它可能会提供你到达那里所需的东西。

(24-25高二上·浙江宁波·期末)Decades ago, my friend Caetlin received a peculiar assignment from the poet Robert L. Hass, who was then her undergraduate literature professor. He instructed each student to memorize three poems from The Norton Anthology of American Literature not for any urgent academic reason but to prepare them for their unavoidable future solitude, claiming that you’re going to be alone, and poetry is going to be all you have.
The act of memorizing a poem seemed curiously old-fashioned in an era when few of us encounter poetry at all. I mostly devoted myself to prose (散文). It was only in my 40s that I began to change my ways. It happened in a flight to Seattle. For hours, I read nothing else but a poem, sometimes going through, sometimes repeating over and over. At the end of my flight, I had all 40 lines in my head. Memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime. The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has. But as you keep trying, the lines finally come together again, and the scattered text transforms back into a treasure, often a more valuable one than it was before.
In other words, poetry perpetuates itself by becoming a part of those who read it. It can do so only because it is so specific, so entirely different, that taking it in expands our own sense of what we are.
Some of the poems I’ve memorized are already fading, and that’s fine. I know if I spend a little time with them, they’ll sing in me again. Others keep thumping (重击) in me like a new pulse. I won’t promise you that memorizing poetry will make your life better, but it will make you more: more in touch with language, with other minds, maybe with what you might yet become.
1.What did professor Robert assign his students to do?
A.Appreciate literature works.
B.Write poems to avoid future solitude.
C.Recite poems for potential loneliness.
D.Memorize poems for academic reasons.
2.Why does the author say memorizing a poem begins as a crime?
A.Repetition makes poems boring. B.It’s a way to kill time on the plane.
C.The author preferred prose to poetry. D.People hardly encountered poetry then.
3.What does the underlined word perpetuates in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Make something famous. B.Keep something alive.
C.Make something beautiful. D.Keep something special.
4.How does the author understand memorizing poetry?
A.It makes our life better. B.It leads to the pursuit of dream.
C.It expands our life properly. D.It enriches our memory definitely.
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.B 4.C
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了教授让学生为未来可能的孤独背诵诗歌,作者分享自己背诗的经历,探讨了背诵诗歌的意义。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段中“He instructed each student to memorize three poems from The Norton Anthology of American Literature not for any urgent academic reason but to prepare them for their unavoidable future solitude, claiming that you’re going to be alone, and poetry is going to be all you have.(他指示每个学生从《诺顿美国文学选集》中背诵三首诗,不是出于任何紧迫的学术原因,而是为他们不可避免的未来孤独做准备,他声称你会孤独,而诗歌将是你仅有的东西)”可知,罗伯特教授让学生为潜在的孤独背诵诗歌。故选C项。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段中“Memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime. The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has.(背诵一首伟大的诗总是始于一种“罪过”。重复带来的无聊感削弱了它原本的巨大魅力)”可知,作者说背诵诗歌始于一种“罪过”是因为重复让诗歌变得无聊。故选A项。
3.词句猜测题。“In other words”意为“换句话说”,说明划线词所在句“In other words, poetry perpetuates itself by becoming a part of those who read it.(换句话说,诗歌通过成为读者的一部分而perpetuates自身)”是对前文意思的再解读。前文“Memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime. The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has. But as you keep trying, the lines finally come together again, and the scattered text transforms back into a treasure, often a more valuable one than it was before.(背诵一首伟大的诗总是一开始就犯了罪。重复的无聊降低了它的巨大魅力。但在你不断努力的过程中,诗句最终会重新组合在一起,分散的文字又重新变成了一件珍宝,而且往往比以前更有价值)”告诉我们,在不断重复的过程中,无聊的诗歌会重新变成了一件珍宝,比以前更有价值,换句话说,说明诗歌通过被背诵而成为读者的一部分,进而价值得以延续。由此推知,划线词perpetuates是指“使……延续、使……存活”,与“Keep something alive.”同义。故选B项。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段“I won’t promise you that memorizing poetry will make your life better, but it will make you more: more in touch with language, with other minds, maybe with what you might yet become.(我不会向你保证背诵诗歌会让你的生活更美好,但它会让你更丰富:更能接触语言、接触他人的思想,也许还能接触到你未来可能成为的样子)”可推知,作者认为背诵诗歌能让生活更丰富,能适当地拓展我们的生活。故选C项。

(24-25高三上·山东德州·期末)A new study suggests people might like chatbot-produced poems for their simple and straightforward images, emotions and themes.
In a recent experiment, the researchers tasked OpenAI’s ChatGPT with generating poems in the styles of famous poets, then presented 1,634 participants with ten poems — five human-written and five chatbot-generated — and assessed how people rated the poems based on 14 qualities, including rhythm and originality. Interestingly, they tended to rate the AI-generated poems higher on average, suggesting a preference for their straightforwardness and clarity.
Why readers seem to prefer AI-generated poetry is not entirely clear, but the researchers’ best guess is that the AI poems may be more appealing because they are relatively straightforward and simple to comprehend. “Emily Dickinson sometimes breaks the expected rhyme scheme (韵律) on purpose,” says Brian Porter, a researcher at the University of Pittsburgh, “But the AI-generated poems in her style never did that once.” Besides, modern readers don’t seem to want to bother themselves to read deep to think critically. Instead, they prefer texts giving them instant answers. “When readers say they prefer AI poetry, they would seem to be showing their frustration when faced with writing that does not yield to their attention,” he adds.
While the findings raise concerns about AI potentially replacing human artists and putting them out of work one day, Dorothea Lasky, the only living poet whose writings were included in the experiments, says it’s not necessarily a bad thing that readers enjoyed the AI-generated poems. “Poetry will always be necessary,” Lasky says, “If they read AI poems and like that poem better than a human-generated poem, then that, to me, is beautiful. They have a good experience with a poem, and I don’t care who wrote it. I feel there is room for all poets — even robot poets.”
This study provided a platform for the intersection of technology and creativity, prompting reflection on the future of poetry and artistic expression.
1.Why did the researchers conduct the experiment?
A.To create a technique. B.To clarify a concept.
C.To detail an example. D.To confirm a finding.
2.What does the example of Emily Dickinson imply?
A.Robots are more complicated than humans.
B.AI meets modern readers’ reading preference.
C.Chatbot is trained to write in creative patterns.
D.Classic poetry lacks unique charming features.
3.Which belief does Dorothea Lasky have about poetry?
A.All flowers bloom together. B.No dish suits all tastes.
C.It’s no use crying over spilt milk. D.Time and tide wait for no man.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Will Poets Be lost in AI Era? B.ChatGPT: a New Advancement
C.Fake or Real — a Concern about AI D.ChatGPT or Dickinson, Who is better?
【答案】1.D 2.B 3.A 4.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究表明,人们可能会喜欢聊天机器人制作的诗歌,因为他们的简单明了的图像,情感和主题,为此科学家进行了一项研究。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段“A new study suggests people might like chatbot-produced poems for their simple and straightforward images, emotions and themes.(一项新的研究表明,人们可能会喜欢聊天机器人制作的诗歌,因为他们的简单明了的图像,情感和主题。)”和第二段“In a recent experiment, the researchers tasked OpenAI’s ChatGPT with generating poems in the styles of famous poets, then presented 1,634 participants with ten poems — five human-written and five chatbot-generated — and assessed how people rated the poems based on 14 qualities, including rhythm and originality.(在最近的一项实验中,研究人员让OpenAI的ChatGPT以著名诗人的风格生成诗歌,然后向1634名展示了十首诗——五首是人类写的,五首是聊天机器人生成的——并评估了人们对这些诗的14种品质的评分,节奏和原创性。)”可推知,研究人员进行这项实验的目的是确认一个发现——人们可能会喜欢聊天机器人制作的诗歌,故选D。
2.推理判断题。根据第三段中“Why readers seem to prefer AI-generated poetry is not entirely clear, but the researchers’ best guess is that the AI poems may be more appealing because they are relatively straightforward and simple to comprehend. “Emily Dickinson sometimes breaks the expected rhyme scheme (韵律) on purpose,” says Brian Porter, a researcher at the University of Pittsburgh, “But the AI-generated poems in her style never did that once.”(为什么读者似乎更喜欢AI生成的诗歌并不完全清楚,但是研究人员的最佳猜测是,AI诗可能更具吸引力,因为它们相对简单明了,简单地理解。匹兹堡大学的研究员布莱恩·波特(Brian Porter)说:“艾米丽·迪金森有时会故意打破预期的韵律。但是AI生成的她的风格的诗歌从未那样做过一次(打破预期的韵律)。)”可推知,艾米丽·迪金森(Emily Dickinson)的例子暗示了AI满足现代读者的阅读偏好——人们喜欢简单明了的内容。故选B。
3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“ “Poetry will always be necessary,” Lasky says, “If they read AI poems and like that poem better than a human-generated poem, then that, to me, is beautiful. They have a good experience with a poem, and I don’t care who wrote it. I feel there is room for all poets— even robot poets.”(“诗歌将永远是必要的,”拉斯基说,“如果他们阅读人工智能的诗,并且比人类创作的诗更喜欢那首诗,那么在我看来,这是美丽的。我不在乎是谁写的,只要他们有一段很好的诗歌体验。我觉得所有的诗人都有空间——即使是机器人诗人。”)”可知,Dorothea Lasky认为无论是机器人还是人写诗,只要写出好的诗歌便是好的,由此可推知,他认为诗歌写作应该是百花齐放,故选A。

(24-25高二上·湖南郴州·期末)New psychology research points to the factors that explain why we find particular poems aesthetically pleasing. “While it may seem obvious that individual taste matters in judgments of poetry, we found certain factors consistently influence how much a poem will be enjoyed.”
Aesthetics (美学), the basis of what we find appealing or not, play an important role in our everyday lives. However, little is known about how we make these judgments. The researchers sought to answer an age-old question — “Why do we like what we like?” — by measuring what we find aesthetically pleasing in poetry.
To do this, the team had more than 400 participants read and rate poems of two genres — haiku and sonnet — with the aim of understanding the factors that best predicted the aesthetic appeal of the poems. After reading each poem, participants answered questions about the poem’s vividness (“How vivid is the imagery evoked from this poem?”), emotional arousal (“How relaxing or stimulating is this poem?”), emotional valence (“How positive or negative is the content of this poem?”), and aesthetic appeal (“How enjoyable or aesthetically appealing did you find this poem?”).
Their results showed that vividness of mental imagery was the best predictor of aesthetic appeal — poems that evoked greater imagery were more pleasing. Emotional valence also predicted aesthetic appeal, though to a lesser extent; specifically, poems that were found to be more positive were generally found to be more appealing. By contrast, emotional arousal did not have a clear relationship to aesthetic appeal.
“The vividness of a poem consistently predicted its aesthetic appeal,” notes Starr, author of Feeling Beauty: The Neuroscience of Aesthetic Experience. “Therefore, it seems that vividness of mental imagery may be a key factor influencing what we like more broadly.” “While limited to poetry,” she adds, “our work sheds light into which facts most influence our aesthetic judgments and paves the way for future research investigating how we make such judgments in other fields.”
1.What did the researchers ask the participants to do?
A.Evaluate poems of haiku and sonnet. B.Write the aesthetic appeal of poems.
C.Explain factors of emotional valence. D.Ask questions about the poem’s vividness.
2.Which of the following is true according to paragraph 4?
A.Poems with more negative content are more appealing.
B.Emotional arousal is negatively related to aesthetic appeal.
C.Emotional valence is the most important predictor of aesthetic appeal.
D.Vividness of mental imagery has the strongest connection with aesthetic appeal.
3.What can be inferred from Starr’s words?
A.The research will help explore aesthetic judgments in other fields.
B.The finding of vividness being a key factor is only applicable to poetry.
C.Emotional valence should be further studied in the context of other art forms.
D.The research has little value for understanding aesthetic judgments in other areas.
4.What is the main purpose of this passage?
A.To introduce different types of poems. B.To discuss the importance of aesthetics.
C.To show the findings of aesthetic appeal. D.To persuade people to admire the poems.
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.A 4.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新的心理学研究指出了为什么我们觉得某些诗歌具有美学吸引力的因素。
1.细节理解题。根据第三段中“To do this, the team had more than 400 participants read and rate poems of two genres — haiku and sonnet — with the aim of understanding the factors that best predicted the aesthetic appeal of the poems.(为了做到这一点,研究小组让400多名参与者阅读并评价两种类型的诗歌——俳句和十四行诗,目的是了解哪些因素最能预测诗歌的美学吸引力)”可知,研究人员要求参与者评价俳句和十四行诗。故选A项。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段中“Their results showed that vividness of mental imagery was the best predictor of aesthetic appeal — poems that evoked greater imagery were more pleasing.(他们的研究结果表明,心理意象的生动性是审美吸引力的最佳预测指标 —— 能唤起更多意象的诗歌更令人愉悦)”可知,心理意象的生动性与美学吸引力有着最强的联系。故选D项。
3.推理判断题。根据最后一段中Starr的话““While limited to poetry,” she adds, “our work sheds light into which facts most influence our aesthetic judgments and paves the way for future research investigating how we make such judgments in other fields.”(“虽然仅限于诗歌,”她补充说,“但我们的工作揭示了哪些事实最影响我们的美学判断,并为未来研究我们在其他领域如何做出这样的判断铺平了道路。”)”可知,从Starr的话中可以推断出,这项研究将有助于探索其他领域的美学判断。故选A项。
4.主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第一段“New psychology research points to the factors that explain why we find particular poems aesthetically pleasing.(新的心理学研究指出了为什么我们觉得某些诗歌具有美学吸引力的因素)”可知,文章开篇指出新的心理学研究指出了人们觉得某些诗歌具有审美吸引力的因素,接着介绍了研究过程和研究发现,最后说明研究的意义,所以文章的主要目的是展示关于审美吸引力的研究发现。故选C项。

(24-25高二上·湖南·期末)There tend to be two types of teachers when it comes to poetry: Ones who love it and bring it into the classroom freely and often. Then, others stay clear. 1 If the love is not there yet, I challenge you to try it! Here are several reasons to teach poetry in the classroom.
Build Reading, Speaking & Listening Skills
Why teach poetry? Children need to learn to read various texts, and poems are one of those forms. The unique thing about poetry is that we often read aloud, repeat often, and share in groups. When children listen to poems orally, they are building their listening skills. 2 When sharing poems in a classroom, look at them and read them together. Children strengthen their reading skills and build reading fluency through repeated reading.
Inspire Poetry Writing
Teach how poems are constructed and the words they contain. It is the first step to writing. 3 We learn how to choose the right words to create imagery and effect. The simple patterns found in some poems are fun to follow and great places for children to start learning to write.
4
Poetry is a form of expression. Writing lets us express our feelings and thoughts on a subject, while reading encourages us to connect and find meaning in our experiences. Poetry can have a positive impact on children's social and emotional learning. It may offer them a new way of thinking about something.
Build a Love for Reading
Expose children to various styles and types of text as they learn to read. As teachers, we want them to love the act of reading and what they read as they learn. Reading can be hard work, and the books children learn first often lack that unique ingredient. Poetry is different. 5 Poems provide enjoyment and laughter. They are engaging and fun to read!
A.Encourage Creative Thinking
B.Explore Language and Vocabulary
C.Poetry offers a memorable and motivational way to teach.
D.It has that special sauce that children long for and so much more!
E.Poetry teaches us how to combine words to form meaning and context.
F.They learn to attend to the words they hear and think about what they mean together.
G.This may be because they don't think it fits with the curriculum and what they are teaching.
【答案】1.G 2.F 3.E 4.A 5.D

(为什么要教诗歌?孩子们需要学习阅读各种文本,诗歌就是其中一种形式。诗歌的独特之处在于我们经常大声朗读,经常重复,并在小组中分享。当孩子们口头听诗时,他们正在培养听力技能。)”可知本段介绍读诗歌的过程以及听诗歌的益处。选项F“他们学会关注他们听到的单词,并思考它们连在一起的意思。”描述孩子们听到诗歌的场景,进一步说明听诗歌的好处,与上文衔接。故选F。
3.上文“Teach how poems are constructed and the words they contain. It is the first step to writing. (教授诗歌是如何构成的以及诗歌中包含的词语。这是写作的第一步。)”介绍写诗的第一步是词语与结构,和下文“We learn how to choose the right words to create imagery and effect. (我们学习如何选择正确的词语来创造意象和效果。)”介绍如何选择合适的词创建场景和效果。选项 E“诗歌教会我们如何将字词组合起来,形成意义和语境。”承上启下,与上下文逻辑意义一致。故选E。
4.根据下文“Poetry is a form of expression. Writing lets us express our feelings and thoughts on a subject, while reading encourages us to connect and find meaning in our experiences. Poetry can have a positive impact on children's social and emotional learning. It may offer them a new way of thinking about something. (诗歌是一种表达形式。写作让我们表达对某个主题的感受和想法,而阅读则鼓励我们在经历中建立联系并找到意义。诗歌可以对儿童的社交和情感学习产生积极影响。它可能会为他们提供一种思考事物的新方式。)”可知本段主要讲述诗歌是一种情感思想的表达方式,它可以提供一种新的思考方式。选项 A“鼓励创造性思维”与段落中心相符,文章关键词thinking about something与选项词语creative thinking一致。故选A。
5.根据下文“Poems provide enjoyment and laughter. They are engaging and fun to read! (诗提供乐趣和笑声。它们读起来既有趣又吸引人!)”可知诗歌提供快乐和笑声,选项D“It has that special sauce that children long for and so much more! (它有孩子们渴望的特殊酱汁,还有更多!) ”与下文意义相同,说明诗歌能给孩子们更多。指的是快乐和笑声。故选D。

Dear Chris,
Glad to hear that you're participating in the Chinese Poem Recitation Contest. The poem you chose is an ancient one, which ought to be a real challenge.
A Traveler's Song is a poem written by Meng Jiao. It's about the deep love between the poet and his mother. The poem mainly describes a scene in which a mother is making clothes for her son who is leaving home to fulfil his dream. With each stich she makes, the mother conveys her deep love for her son and her concern that he may not return. The poet expresses his ideas using comparison, concluding that “a mother's love is like the sunshine to the grass”. With its rich emotion and depth, this poem is a good choice for your contest.
Best of luck.
Yours,
Li Hua

How do polyglots learn languages ?
How many languages do you speak? For most people, it can be hard learning just one foreign language. Lydia Machova, a Slovakian polyglot and language mentor, is currently fluent in seven foreign languages and says she likes to learn a new language every two years! So how do polyglots like Lydia learn multiple languages successfully, and what can we learn from their methods?
Lydia wanted to find out the different techniques polyglots use, and she found a wide variety of methods. Some use language exchange apps to find native speakers so that they can start speaking from day one. Others watch series they love with subtitles, and some use techniques like ‘shadowing’—listening to and repeating target language to master pronunciation. Kato Lomb was described by the linguist Krashen as “possibly the most accomplished polyglot in the world”. She was a Hungarian who spoke 16 languages! Her approach to learning focussed on extensive reading and self-study. So, while there are lots of different approaches, in her 2019 TED Talk, Lydia concluded that the one thing polyglots all have in common is an interest and motivation to learn.
However, some linguists argue that viral videos showing polyglots switching between languages often rely on memorised phrases rather than proving genuine conversational ability. Benny Lewis, author and creator of the website Fluent in 3 Months, thinks it’s important to be open and honest about your competency in a language. Hediscusses having varying levels of proficiency in the languages he speaks, from basic conversation to near-native fluency.
So, the professionals say enjoy yourself when learning. We recommend you try some of these suggestions, find the right method for you and stick to it!
【译文欣赏】
通晓多门语言的人是如何学习语言的?
你会说几种语言?对于大多数人来说,学习一门外语可能很难。Lydia Machova是一名斯洛伐克多语言者和语言导师,目前精通七门外语,她说她喜欢每两年学习一门新语言!那么,像莉迪亚这样的多语者是如何成功学习多种语言的,我们能从他们的方法中学到什么呢?
Lydia想了解多语言者使用的不同技术,她发现了各种各样的方法。有些人使用语言交换应用程序来寻找母语人士,这样他们就可以从第一天开始说话。其他人观看他们喜欢的带有字幕的连续剧,有些人使用“影子”等技巧——听和重复目标语言来掌握发音。语言学家克拉申(Krashen)将加藤·隆(Kato Lomb)描述为“可能是世界上最有成就的多语者”。她是匈牙利人,会说16种语言!她的学习方法侧重于泛读和自学。因此,尽管有很多不同的方法,但在2019年的TED演讲中,Lydia得出结论,多语言者的一个共同点是学习的兴趣和动力。
然而,一些语言学家认为,显示多语言者在语言之间切换的病毒视频通常依赖于记忆短语,而不是证明真正的会话能力。Benny Lewis是Fluent in 3 Months网站的作者和创建者,他认为对自己的语言能力持开放和诚实的态度很重要。他谈到,从基本的对话到近乎母语的流利程度,他所说的语言的熟练程度各不相同。
所以,专业人士说,在学习时享受自己。我们建议您尝试其中的一些建议,找到适合您的方法并坚持下去!

(2024·全国甲卷·高考真题)“I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor. It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof. Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not. He suggested I think about the difference between endings that I wanted for the characters and endings that were right for the characters, endings that satisfied the story even if they didn’t have a traditionally positive outcome. Of course, I would have preferred a different ending for Tom and Maggie Tulliver, but the ending they got did make the most sense for them.
This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again. From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance. If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery (悬疑小说). One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction. Choosing what to read became easier.
But writing the end — that’s hard. It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers. You have to balance creating an ending that's unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.
That’s why this issue (期) of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing. If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing. Elizabeth Sims analyzes the final chapters of five great novels to see what key points they include and how you can adapt them for your work.
This issue won’t tell you what your ending should be — that’s up to you and the story you’re telling — but it might provide what you need to get there.
1.Why did the author go to Prof. Gracie?
A.To discuss a novel. B.To submit a book report.
C.To argue for a writer. D.To ask for a reading list.
2.What did the author realize after seeing Gracie?
A.Writing is a matter of personal preferences.
B.Readers are often carried away by character.
C.Each type of literature has its unique end.
D.A story which begins well will end well.
3.What is expected of a good ending?
A.It satisfies readers’ taste. B.It fits with the story development.
C.It is usually positive. D.It is open for imagination.
4.Why does the author mention Peter Mountford and Elizabeth Sims?
A.To give examples of great novelists. B.To stress the theme of this issue.
C.To encourage writing for the magazine. D.To recommend their new books.
(
(一)词汇积累是基础
(二)攻克长难句,理清文章脉络
1. 学会分析句子结构:长难句往往包含多个从句、修饰成分等,我们要学会找出句子的主干部分(主谓宾等),然后再分析各个修饰成分与主干的关系。 比如,“The book, which was written by a famous author and has been translated into many languages, tells an inspiring story.”这句话的主干就是“The book tells an inspiring story.”,而“which was written by a famous author and has been translated into many languages”是一个定语从句,用来修饰先行词“the book”。
2. 巧用语法知识:掌握基本的语法规则对于理解长难句至关重要。比如,通过识别从句引导词(如that, which, who等)来判断从句类型,利用分词作定语、状语的特点来分析句子成分等。在日常学习中,要多做一些长难句分析的练习,提高自己的语法运用能力。
(三)阅读技巧要掌握
1. 先读题目,后读文章: 在做阅读理解CD篇时,先快速浏览一遍题目和选项,了解文章大致要考查的内容和方向。这样在阅读文章时就可以有针对性地去寻找关键信息,提高阅读效率。例如,如果题目问到文章中某个人物的观点,那我们在阅读文章时就要重点关注该人物出现的段落以及相关表述。
2. 略读与精读相结合: 略读是指快速浏览文章,抓住文章的主旨大意、段落首句和尾句等关键信息,了解文章的大致框架。精读则是针对题目所涉及的具体内容,对相关段落进行仔细研读,分析句子含义,理解细节信息。比如,在略读一篇关于环保措施的文章时,我们可以通过各段落首句了解到文章分别介绍了政府的政策、企业的行动以及个人的参与等方面的内容;当遇到题目问到企业采取了哪些具体环保措施时,就需要对相关段落进行精读,找出准确答案。
(四)把握文章主旨,准确答题
1. 关注文章开头和结尾:很多文章的主旨大意都会在开头部分提出,结尾部分进行总结或升华。所以,在阅读过程中要特别留意文章的首段和尾段,从中提炼出文章的核心观点。例如,一篇文章开头写道:“In modern society, the issue of environmental protection has become increasingly urgent.”结尾又提到:“Only by taking collective actions can we hope to solve the environmental problems and create a better future.”从这里我们就可以大致判断出文章的主旨是关于现代社会中环境保护的重要性以及需要采取集体行动来解决问题。
2. 结合各段落大意:除了开头和结尾,各段落的大意也对把握文章主旨有很大帮助。我们可以在略读文章时,简单概括每个段落的主要内容,然后将这些内容综合起来,进一步明确文章的主旨。比如,一篇文章分别从不同角度介绍了智能手机对人们生活的影响,我们通过概括各段落大意,如智能手机对社交的影响、对学习的影响、对娱乐的影响等,就能准确把握文章整体是在探讨智能手机在生活各方面所带来的影响这一主旨。
(五)排除干扰项,提高答题准确率
1. 分析选项特点:高考英语阅读理解的选项设置通常会有一些干扰项,这些干扰项往往具有与原文部分相似、表述绝对化、偷换概念等特点。我们要学会仔细分析每个选项,找出其与原文的差异和不合理之处。例如,原文说“Most people prefer to travel by train during holidays.”,选项中如果出现“All people prefer to travel by train during holidays.”,“All”这个绝对化的表述就与原文不符,可直接排除。
2. 回原文验证:对于难以判断的选项,一定要回原文中找到相应的出处进行验证。不能仅凭感觉或印象就做出选择,要确保所选答案在原文中有确凿的依据。比如,当遇到一个选项说某件事情发生的原因是A,但我们不确定时,就需要回到原文中去查找关于这件事情原因的相关表述,看是否真的是A。
三、实战演练,巩固技巧
光说不练假把式,同学们在掌握了这些技巧之后,一定要通过大量的实战演练来加以巩固。可以选择历年高考真题、高质量的模拟试题等进行练习,在练习过程中不断运用所学技巧,分析自己的答题情况,总结经验教训,逐步提高自己的阅读理解能力。
同时,做完题目后要认真分析错题原因,是因为词汇不认识、长难句没理解,还是阅读技巧运用不当等,针对不同的原因采取相应的改进措施。

“我不喜欢这个结局,”我对我最喜欢的大学教授说。那是我大三的时候,我正在做一项关于维多利亚文学的独立研究。我刚刚读完乔治·艾略特的《弗洛斯河上的磨坊》,读到结尾我很伤心。格雷西教授耐心地让我考虑一下,不要只看我喜不喜欢。他建议我思考我想要的角色结局和适合角色的结局之间的区别,即满足故事的结局,即使它们没有传统的积极结果。当然,我更希望汤姆和玛吉·特利佛有一个不同的结局,但他们得到的结局对他们来说确实是最合理的。 这对我来说是一个顿悟的时刻,我再也不会像以前那样看待结局了。从那时起,如果我想读一个保证幸福的结局,我就会选一部爱情小说。如果我想要一个我猜不到的结局,我会选一本悬疑小说。如果我想读知道大概会发生什么事情的小说,则会选择历史小说。选择读什么变得更容易了。 但是写结尾是很难的。这对作家来说很难,因为结局对读者来说太重要了。你必须平衡创造一个不可预测的结局,但似乎不是凭空而来的,一个适合角色的结局。 这就是为什么本期《作家文摘》旨在帮助你弄清楚如何为你正在做的任何一种写作写出最好的结局。如果是短篇小说,彼得蒙特福德给出了六种技巧,你可以试着看看哪一种能帮助你坚持着落。伊丽莎白·西姆斯分析了五部伟大小说的最后几章,看看它们包含了什么关键点,以及你如何将它们改编成你的作品。 这期杂志不会告诉你你的结局应该是什么——这取决于你和你讲述的故事——但它可能会提供你到达那里所需的东西。

(24-25高二上·浙江宁波·期末)Decades ago, my friend Caetlin received a peculiar assignment from the poet Robert L. Hass, who was then her undergraduate literature professor. He instructed each student to memorize three poems from The Norton Anthology of American Literature not for any urgent academic reason but to prepare them for their unavoidable future solitude, claiming that you’re going to be alone, and poetry is going to be all you have.
The act of memorizing a poem seemed curiously old-fashioned in an era when few of us encounter poetry at all. I mostly devoted myself to prose (散文). It was only in my 40s that I began to change my ways. It happened in a flight to Seattle. For hours, I read nothing else but a poem, sometimes going through, sometimes repeating over and over. At the end of my flight, I had all 40 lines in my head. Memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime. The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has. But as you keep trying, the lines finally come together again, and the scattered text transforms back into a treasure, often a more valuable one than it was before.
In other words, poetry perpetuates itself by becoming a part of those who read it. It can do so only because it is so specific, so entirely different, that taking it in expands our own sense of what we are.
Some of the poems I’ve memorized are already fading, and that’s fine. I know if I spend a little time with them, they’ll sing in me again. Others keep thumping (重击) in me like a new pulse. I won’t promise you that memorizing poetry will make your life better, but it will make you more: more in touch with language, with other minds, maybe with what you might yet become.
1.What did professor Robert assign his students to do?
A.Appreciate literature works.
B.Write poems to avoid future solitude.
C.Recite poems for potential loneliness.
D.Memorize poems for academic reasons.
2.Why does the author say memorizing a poem begins as a crime?
A.Repetition makes poems boring. B.It’s a way to kill time on the plane.
C.The author preferred prose to poetry. D.People hardly encountered poetry then.
3.What does the underlined word perpetuates in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Make something famous. B.Keep something alive.
C.Make something beautiful. D.Keep something special.
4.How does the author understand memorizing poetry?
A.It makes our life better. B.It leads to the pursuit of dream.
C.It expands our life properly. D.It enriches our memory definitely.

(24-25高三上·山东德州·期末)A new study suggests people might like chatbot-produced poems for their simple and straightforward images, emotions and themes.
In a recent experiment, the researchers tasked OpenAI’s ChatGPT with generating poems in the styles of famous poets, then presented 1,634 participants with ten poems — five human-written and five chatbot-generated — and assessed how people rated the poems based on 14 qualities, including rhythm and originality. Interestingly, they tended to rate the AI-generated poems higher on average, suggesting a preference for their straightforwardness and clarity.
Why readers seem to prefer AI-generated poetry is not entirely clear, but the researchers’ best guess is that the AI poems may be more appealing because they are relatively straightforward and simple to comprehend. “Emily Dickinson sometimes breaks the expected rhyme scheme (韵律) on purpose,” says Brian Porter, a researcher at the University of Pittsburgh, “But the AI-generated poems in her style never did that once.” Besides, modern readers don’t seem to want to bother themselves to read deep to think critically. Instead, they prefer texts giving them instant answers. “When readers say they prefer AI poetry, they would seem to be showing their frustration when faced with writing that does not yield to their attention,” he adds.
While the findings raise concerns about AI potentially replacing human artists and putting them out of work one day, Dorothea Lasky, the only living poet whose writings were included in the experiments, says it’s not necessarily a bad thing that readers enjoyed the AI-generated poems. “Poetry will always be necessary,” Lasky says, “If they read AI poems and like that poem better than a human-generated poem, then that, to me, is beautiful. They have a good experience with a poem, and I don’t care who wrote it. I feel there is room for all poets — even robot poets.”
This study provided a platform for the intersection of technology and creativity, prompting reflection on the future of poetry and artistic expression.
1.Why did the researchers conduct the experiment?
A.To create a technique. B.To clarify a concept.
C.To detail an example. D.To confirm a finding.
2.What does the example of Emily Dickinson imply?
A.Robots are more complicated than humans.
B.AI meets modern readers’ reading preference.
C.Chatbot is trained to write in creative patterns.
D.Classic poetry lacks unique charming features.
3.Which belief does Dorothea Lasky have about poetry?
A.All flowers bloom together. B.No dish suits all tastes.
C.It’s no use crying over spilt milk. D.Time and tide wait for no man.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Will Poets Be lost in AI Era? B.ChatGPT: a New Advancement
C.Fake or Real — a Concern about AI D.ChatGPT or Dickinson, Who is better?

(24-25高二上·湖南郴州·期末)New psychology research points to the factors that explain why we find particular poems aesthetically pleasing. “While it may seem obvious that individual taste matters in judgments of poetry, we found certain factors consistently influence how much a poem will be enjoyed.”
Aesthetics (美学), the basis of what we find appealing or not, play an important role in our everyday lives. However, little is known about how we make these judgments. The researchers sought to answer an age-old question — “Why do we like what we like?” — by measuring what we find aesthetically pleasing in poetry.
To do this, the team had more than 400 participants read and rate poems of two genres — haiku and sonnet — with the aim of understanding the factors that best predicted the aesthetic appeal of the poems. After reading each poem, participants answered questions about the poem’s vividness (“How vivid is the imagery evoked from this poem?”), emotional arousal (“How relaxing or stimulating is this poem?”), emotional valence (“How positive or negative is the content of this poem?”), and aesthetic appeal (“How enjoyable or aesthetically appealing did you find this poem?”).
Their results showed that vividness of mental imagery was the best predictor of aesthetic appeal — poems that evoked greater imagery were more pleasing. Emotional valence also predicted aesthetic appeal, though to a lesser extent; specifically, poems that were found to be more positive were generally found to be more appealing. By contrast, emotional arousal did not have a clear relationship to aesthetic appeal.
“The vividness of a poem consistently predicted its aesthetic appeal,” notes Starr, author of Feeling Beauty: The Neuroscience of Aesthetic Experience. “Therefore, it seems that vividness of mental imagery may be a key factor influencing what we like more broadly.” “While limited to poetry,” she adds, “our work sheds light into which facts most influence our aesthetic judgments and paves the way for future research investigating how we make such judgments in other fields.”
1.What did the researchers ask the participants to do?
A.Evaluate poems of haiku and sonnet. B.Write the aesthetic appeal of poems.
C.Explain factors of emotional valence. D.Ask questions about the poem’s vividness.
2.Which of the following is true according to paragraph 4?
A.Poems with more negative content are more appealing.
B.Emotional arousal is negatively related to aesthetic appeal.
C.Emotional valence is the most important predictor of aesthetic appeal.
D.Vividness of mental imagery has the strongest connection with aesthetic appeal.
3.What can be inferred from Starr’s words?
A.The research will help explore aesthetic judgments in other fields.
B.The finding of vividness being a key factor is only applicable to poetry.
C.Emotional valence should be further studied in the context of other art forms.
D.The research has little value for understanding aesthetic judgments in other areas.
4.What is the main purpose of this passage?
A.To introduce different types of poems. B.To discuss the importance of aesthetics.
C.To show the findings of aesthetic appeal. D.To persuade people to admire the poems.

(24-25高二上·湖南·期末)There tend to be two types of teachers when it comes to poetry: Ones who love it and bring it into the classroom freely and often. Then, others stay clear. 1 If the love is not there yet, I challenge you to try it! Here are several reasons to teach poetry in the classroom.
Build Reading, Speaking & Listening Skills
Why teach poetry? Children need to learn to read various texts, and poems are one of those forms. The unique thing about poetry is that we often read aloud, repeat often, and share in groups. When children listen to poems orally, they are building their listening skills. 2 When sharing poems in a classroom, look at them and read them together. Children strengthen their reading skills and build reading fluency through repeated reading.
Inspire Poetry Writing
Teach how poems are constructed and the words they contain. It is the first step to writing. 3 We learn how to choose the right words to create imagery and effect. The simple patterns found in some poems are fun to follow and great places for children to start learning to write.
4
Poetry is a form of expression. Writing lets us express our feelings and thoughts on a subject, while reading encourages us to connect and find meaning in our experiences. Poetry can have a positive impact on children's social and emotional learning. It may offer them a new way of thinking about something.
Build a Love for Reading
Expose children to various styles and types of text as they learn to read. As teachers, we want them to love the act of reading and what they read as they learn. Reading can be hard work, and the books children learn first often lack that unique ingredient. Poetry is different. 5 Poems provide enjoyment and laughter. They are engaging and fun to read!
A.Encourage Creative Thinking
B.Explore Language and Vocabulary
C.Poetry offers a memorable and motivational way to teach.
D.It has that special sauce that children long for and so much more!
E.Poetry teaches us how to combine words to form meaning and context.
F.They learn to attend to the words they hear and think about what they mean together.
G.This may be because they don't think it fits with the curriculum and what they are teaching.
