TFK(Time For Kids):
What can you tell us about The Playbook?
Kwame Alexander:
I wanted to write a book about how important it is to persevere (坚持) and accept the challenges that come,because they only make you stronger.And I wanted to do it in a really cool and fun way,using sports as a metaphor (隐喻),so students would be interested in reading a book that is telling them how to make their lives better.
TFK:
Where did you get the idea for the book?
Alexander:
In The Crossover,the father of the main characters,Josh and Jordan,gives them these rules for life,called Basketball Rules.Well,I was having breakfast with a friend of mine in New York City.He said,“Kwame,I love those Basketball Rules you have in The Crossover.You should think about writing a whole book on those.”That's where it all began.
TFK:
Is it hard to mix sports and poetry (诗歌)?
Alexander:
I love sports,and I've been writing poetry since I was a kid.So those two things are as natural to me as breathing,laughing and walking.
TFK:
You've said teachers need to make learning poetry fun.Did you have a teacher like this as a kid?
Alexander:
My mom.She read poetry to my sisters and me when I was a kid,and she would make the words jump off the page!
TFK:
What advice would you give to young writers?
Alexander:
Read everything you can get your hands on.The best way to become a good writer is to read what other people have written.

Horace was born in 65 BCE, in the town of Venusiain Apulia, an area in Southern Italy.His father was a freedman and small landowner; historians disagree on whether or not he had ever been a slave.The Roman historian Suetonius wrote that his father might have been a“dealer in salted foods”.Though not quite rich, his father spent considerable amounts of money on Horace's schooling and sent him to the finest school in Rome.Later, the son was sent to Athens to study Greek.
It was while Horace was in Athens that he joined the army of Marcus Junius Brutus against Octavian, who was the future Augustus and first Roman emperor.Brutus's forces eventually lost at the Battle of Philippi in 42 BCE.As a result of the defeat, his military career was over and he lost his family's property.
Augustus pardoned his enemies and Horace returned to Rome, where he got a position as a clerk in the government.It was at this time that he wrote his first series of poems, something that brought him into contact with Virgil and Varius Rufus.The two celebrated poets introduced him to Gaius Maecenas, a wealthy supporter of young poets, who would have a powerful effect on his life.He was not only an author himself but a personal friend and advisor to Augustus, and through him, Horace would meet the emperor.Maecenas soon recognized the young poet's outstanding gift and gave him a farm near Romeat Tivoli, a place where Horace wrote his extraordinary poems in peace.
In 23 BCE he published three books of Odes in which poems celebrated Rome at the age of Augustus.Horace said the poems were modeled after the great Greek poets, and he believed Rome had to recognize that the Greeks were better in all intellectual (智力的) and cultural fields.
In the final years of his life, he wrote Ars Poetica, a far-reaching work on the art of writing poetry.He eventually became one of Rome's best-loved poets.On November 27, 8 BCE Horace died, two months after his life-long friend Maecenas.

It's no secret that literature is powerful.For many of us, there have been times in our lives—a loved one's passing, our first heartbreak—that we couldn't have made it through without a few extraordinary books, poems, or perhaps even just a few words strung together.We knew the connective power of literature all along, but now there's science behind it.
A number of studies have shown that poetry provides a number of benefits for patients suffering from chronic (慢性的) and terminal (晚期的) illnesses.A randomized clinical trial, which set out to“evaluate the effect of passive listening to music and poetry on the variation in pain, depression, and hope scores”of 75 adult patients, came back with fascinating results.Researchers discovered that music and poetry both lessened pain intensity and depression, but only poetry increased hope scores.
After listening to poems, one participant said,“I feel calmer when I hear those words.Sadness passes.They are important words; they show me that I'm not alone.”What is it about those words that gives them the power to keep sadness away, and, moreover, to bring peace and comfort? As reported in Nautilus,“Poetry has a structure, which is something we can experience with our bodies.”
Using something called functional magnetic resonance imaging, researchers were able to ascertain(查明) that the recitation of poetry engages the mesolimbic pathway (中脑边缘系统通路), the primary reward circuitry in the brain.While poetry won't cure the disease, it can help patients deal with the pain, both physical and emotional, associated with the illness.Treatment is important, but what physicians tend to forget is that healing (康复) is equally crucial for successful recovery.And healing is not just a matter of the body, but one of the mind and spirit, too.
In the context of terminal illness,communication between patient and physician extends beyond mere descriptions of physical pain,and transcends (超越) to more personal,and even more difficult to express conditions,such as mood,morale,and tiredness.Through poetry,doctors are able to better understand the mental state of their patients and as a result,better aid patients in the healing or treatment process.
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。文章介绍了诗歌在病人治愈过程中发挥的积极作用。
12.What did the clinical trial's researchers find?
A.Music proved ineffective in easing patients' pain.
B.Music raised patients' hopes of a speedy recovery.
C.Poetry could help cure chronic and terminal diseases.
D.Poetry helped to relieve pain and depression and give hope.
D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的Researchers discovered that music and poetry both lessened pain intensity and depression, but only poetry increased hope scores可知,在一次随机临床试验中,研究员发现聆听音乐和诗歌都能减轻病人的疼痛强度、缓解他们的抑郁,但只有诗歌能给予病人希望。
13.What did one participant's words show?
A.Poems often bore hidden meanings.
B.Poems should be experienced first-hand.
C.Poems had a surprisingly calming influence.
D.Poems played a connective role among patients.
C 推理判断题。根据第三段中的I feel calmer when I hear those words.Sadness passes...they show me that I'm not alone和What is it about those words that gives them the power to keep sadness away, and, moreover, to bring peace and comfort?可知,诗歌有一种神奇的镇定作用,能赋予病人力量去驱散悲伤情绪。
14.What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A.Patients' spirit matters the most in the healing process.
B.Poetry enables doctors to connect with patients emotionally.
C.Poetry can serve as an immediate treatment for most diseases.
D.Patients' self-experimentation for a cure should be encouraged.
B 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的what physicians tend to forget is that healing is equally crucial...healing is not just a matter of the body, but one of the mind and spirit以及最后一段中的communication between patient and physician extends beyond...and transcends to more personal, and even more difficult to express conditions...Through poetry, doctors are able to better understand the mental state of their patients...in the healing or treatment process可知,在病人的治愈过程中,康复也同等重要,而诗歌可以让医生与病人在情感上建立密切的联系,从而让医生能更好地了解病人的精神状态,能在治愈的过程中发挥更积极的作用。
15.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.The desire to heal
B.The art of expression
C.The healing power of poetry
D.The benefit of literature to doctors
C 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,本文主要讲述了诗歌在病人治疗的过程中发挥着积极的作用,C项最能概括文章主旨,适合作本文的标题。

Once, a man was walking on a mountain when he found an incredible cave.Stored inside were all kinds of treasure and precious stones, and when he saw it, the man concealed the cave entrance and stayed there, guarding it.
From that day on, the man would hide all his valuables in the cave, and to avoid anyone suspecting he was rich, he gave up his job, his home, and his friends.He constantly watched the approaches to his cave, wanting no one to find out about it, and fearing thieves, and he guarded the cave the whole night through.
He was so dedicated to the cave that he hardly ate or drank.Before long, he fell ill.Many days passed, and he got thinner and sicker, losing all his strength, until he was on the point of dying.One day, when he could hardly move at all, he realized that it was his greed that had brought him to this extreme end.He now understood that guarding his treasure had been of no use and no good whatsoever.Just before he died, he decided to share it with others.
He crawled into the cave to get a handful of jewels, but discovered, to his horror, that the cave was almost empty.All he could find was a small emerald, which had only a dull sheen to it.The man took it, and left the cave, intending to give it to the first person to come by.Soon a woman approached, and she accepted the emerald with great joy.
“Are you sure there's nothing else?”replied the woman.The man shook his head,and pointed to the cave.Now he could see that there were,indeed,some treasures still there;he saw some gold coins.“Take them with you,”he said.The woman took both the emerald and the coins,and went away happily.
In a while, an old man came by and asked the man what he was doing there.“What bad luck!Just a moment ago I gave a woman the few riches left from the fabulous hoard of treasure I was guarding.”
Paragraph 1

【答案】
Paragraph 1
“Are you sure there is nothing left?”the old man asked him.The man led him into the cave, where to their surprise, there was a box full of treasure and precious stones.“What? Why?”the man was shocked.“Congratulations!Young man,”the old man said.“You see, this is the cave of Thousand Treasures.You are the first to pass its test.Many others who had discovered the valuables ended up realizing there was nothing here.”
Paragraph 2
“And why does this happen?”said the man,“Why do these treasures appear and disappear?”“My son.This magic cave has as many riches as does your own heart.When somebody discovers the cave, it fills with the jewels they bring with them.However, if they devote themselves to guarding the treasure, their hearts began emptying.So does the cave.The only way to fill it is by filling your heart with all that is good, as you did.So it is better to share them than keep things to yourself.”
