What can teachers learn about teaching if they take a class that is not in their field? The students in the poetry class listened to lectures and took notes.They had reading tasks and had to write three short papers.All students noticed one thing — the importance of spoken words.In science and engineering classes, the instructors put tables and drawings on the blackboard.But in this poetry class, the instructors just talked.They didn’t write anything on the board. The scientists and engineers noticed one similarity between science and poetry.In both subjects, students need to find layers of meaning.Some layers are simple, clean, and on the surface; other layers are deeper and more difficult.This search for different levels of meaning doesn’t happen much in undergraduate science classes, but it is important later, in a graduate school.And it is always important in humanities (人文学科). Both the poetry instructors and their students learned something about teaching from this experience.One poetry instructor, for example, now sees the importance of using careful, clear definitions when he explains a poem.He also plans to be more informative as he teaches.Most of the scientists agreed on several points.Firstly, humanities classes might help science students to see patterns and decide which information is important.Secondly, the poetry class was fun.One engineer decided, “We need to change the way we teach engineering to make it an enjoyable experience for students.” But perhaps the most important result of the experience was this: all of the professors began to think about how they teach and how they can teach better. 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一些科学家和工程师上了一堂与自己领域不相关的课——诗歌课。通过体验和比较,他们有了一些新的感悟。 4.What do we know about this unusual class? A.The teachers did lots of writing on the board. B.The teachers were invited to attend several lectures. C.The students were professors from a university. D.The students were studying science and humanities. 解析:选C　细节理解题。 根据第一段第二、三句可知,来听这节不同寻常的课的学生都是大学教授。 5.The experiment was designed to find out 　　　　.  A.how to teach the students in the science class B.whether poetry is difficult for science students C.what to be taught in the humanities class D.why many humanities students find science hard 解析:选D　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“This class was part of a study to answer the questions: Why is science difficult for many non⁃science students? ”可知,这堂课的目的是解答“为什么人文学科的学生认为科学很难”这一问题。 6.Finding levels of meaning is 　　　　.  A.important for graduate students in humanities B.difficult for graduate students in humanities C.common for undergraduate students in science D.easy for undergraduate students in science 解析:选A　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This search for different levels of meaning ... is important later, in a graduate school.And it is always important in humanities(人文学科).”可知,这种对不同层次意义的探索在本科科学课上并不常见,但是这在以后的研究生学院中很重要,在人文学科中也很重要。 7.What did the science professors learn after the experiment? A.They should change the way they teach. B.A poem could be explained in clear definitions. C.A poetry class could be more informative. D.Their teaching was an enjoyable experience. 解析:选A　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“...all of the professors began to think about how they teach and how they can teach better.” 可知,科学教授们领会到:他们应该改变教学的方式。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 Writing poetry can seem frightening, especially if you do not feel you are naturally creative. But with the right inspiration and approach, you can also write a poem that you can be proud to share with others in class or with your friends. ·Pick a specific theme or idea. You can start your poem by focusing on a specific theme or idea that you find fascinating. 　8　 For example, you may decide to write a poem around the theme of “love and friendship”.  ·Choose a poetic form. Get your creative juices flowing by picking a form for your poem. There are many different poetic forms that you can use, from free verse to sonnet to rhyming couplet. 　9　 Choose one poetic form and stick to that structure so your poem feels cohesive to your reader.  ·Use concrete imagery. 　10　 You should always try to describe something using the five senses: smell, taste, touch, sight, and sound. Using concrete imagery will immerse (使沉浸在) your reader in the world of your poem and make images come alive for them.  ·　11　 Literary devices like metaphor and simile add variety and depth to your poetry. Using these devices can make your poem stand out to your readers. Try to use literary devices throughout your poem, varying them so you do not use only metaphors or only similes in your writing.  ·Read the poem out loud. Once you have completed a draft of the poem,you should read it aloud to yourself. 　12　 Pay attention to how each line of your poem flows into the next. Keep a pen close by so you can mark any lines or words that sound awkward or jumbled.  A.Include literary devices. B.Notice how the words sound on the page. C.This can give your poem a clear goal or objective. D.You may go for a poetic form that you find easy to use. E.Decide poems written in different language you are interested in. F.Avoid abstract imagery and go for concrete descriptions in your poem. G.You can also share your poem with other poets to get feedback from them. 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了写诗的几个方法。 8.选C　根据本段的小标题和空前句可知,本段建议要选择一个特定的主题或想法。C选项中的This就是指代前文的“选定主题”这一方法,而后文“For example, you may decide to write a poem ...”举例表明给诗歌选定主题是为了明确目标。故选C。 9.选D　根据小标题和前后文可知,本句是就诗歌形式的选择进行建议,D选项“你可能会选择一种容易使用的诗歌形式”与本段主旨一致,其中“a poetic form”对应后文中“one poetic form”。故选D。 10.选F　根据小标题以及后文可知,本段的主旨是诗歌的描述要具体,F选项中“concrete descriptions”对应小标题以及后文中“concrete imagery”,前后语义一致,故选F。 11.选A　空格处是本段的小标题,由空后内容可知,本段主要讲的是写诗的时候要用文学手法,故选A。 12.选B　后文提到标记听起来别扭的地方,即注意单词的发音,B选项中“sound”对应后文中“sound”,说明了要注意单词的发音,故选B。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
