Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
There are many different types of poems.
Many people have heard about haiku.In fact,most of us are taught at one point or another—usually in elementary school or high school—to write one of our very own.Actually,haiku is a form of poetry made up of three non-rhyming lines.They often express feelings and thoughts about nature; however,you could write a poem about any subject you like in this form.
One of the poetic favorites is pastoral(田园的)poetry because it means wonderful senses of peace and harmony.Examples of this form include Keats's Ode on a Grecian Urn.Like the haiku,nature is often at the center of this type of poem as well.In general,pastoral poetry will focus on describing a rural(乡村的)place,but the terms will be peaceful.You feel at ease after reading this type of poem.Many pastoral poems are written about shepherds.
Are you familiar with the term“ballad”?Probably you are,because people sometimes refer to songs—particularly romantic ones—as ballads.In fact,ballad poems are frequently sung or at least they are intended to be sung,and they are often about love.Often,these ballads will tell stories and they tend to be of a mystical nature.
A limerick is a poem that is often silly or funny,written in five lines with AABBA rhyme(押韵).Often,a limerick tells a short,humorous story.This type of poem has been popular for hundreds of years,particularly in the English language.When limericks first became popular,they often expressed ideas that were dirty,but today limericks express all sorts of ideas.
