Section Ⅲ　　Learning About Language [课时跟踪检测] Ⅰ.阅读理解 When people sit together at night and enjoy the glorious moon, an ancient poem, Prelude to Water Melody, is often read for this occasion.Critics say it’s probably the best poem about the Mid⁃Autumn Festival.Let’s just focus on its most famous five lines to make some analysis. In the first two lines of the five, the writer is comparing the life of a man with the changing face of the moon.In Chinese culture the moon is always considered to be a perfect carrier of emotions like nostalgia and longing for family reunion.A full moon symbolizes perfection and unity, while a gloomy night may remind people of their misfortunes.When the moon is round and fair but people are separated from their loved ones, such moments can be even more heartbreaking. Before the comparison, the poet actually complains about the seemingly “ruthless (无情的)” moon and asks her: You should have no spite (怨恨) against man, but why.When people part, are you often full and bright? However, he soon realizes that no one has an easy ride, just like the moon may not always be bright.The imperfections have been going on since the beginning of time.That’s why he says “There has been nothing perfect since the olden days.” But should we get bogged down (陷入) by the suffering of things with which we can’t change? The poet gives his answer: Change your attitude and stay positive.So, we have this everlasting line, “　　　.” The poet hopes that people appreciate the fact that no matter where they are, as long as the ones they love and miss are healthy and happy, they can all admire the same moon high in the sky.  To this day people still use this verse to express their good will and wishes for family members and friends who can’t be with them, especially during major festivals. 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章围绕苏轼的《水调歌头》进行了赏析,尤其是对词中最著名的五句进行了分析。 1.What does the text mainly talk about? A.How we can appreciate Chinese poetry about the Mid⁃Autumn Day. B.When we must recite the best Chinese poetry about the Mid⁃Autumn Day. C.What made a poet write the best ever Mid⁃Autumn Day Chinese poem. D.Why a poem is the peak of Chinese poetry about the Mid⁃Autumn Day. 解析:选D　主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Critics say it’s probably the best poem about the Mid⁃Autumn Festival ...make some analysis.”可知,文章主要针对《水调歌头》最著名的五句来分析为什么它是关于中秋节最好的诗。 2.Why does the poet write “There has been nothing perfect since the olden days” in the poem? A.He doesn’t understand why the moon hates humans. B.He knows eventually the moon will become full again. C.He realizes life is always accompanied by imperfections. D.He understands life is too ruthless and has lost his interest in it. 解析:选C　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“However, he soon realizes that no one has an easy ride, just like the moon may not always be bright.The imperfections have been going on since the beginning of time.”可知,苏轼意识到生活中的缺陷从一开始就一直存在,生活总是伴随着不完美,所以他写道“此事古难全”。 3.Which of the following lines is the most suitable for the blank in paragraph 4? A.How long will the full moon appear? Wine cup in hand I ask the sky. B.Looking up, I find the moon bright; Bowing, in homesickness I’m drowned. C.In spring the river rises as high as the sea; with the river’s tide uprises the moon bright. D.May we all be blessed with a long life; Miles apart, we’ll share the beauty of the moon together. 解析:选D　推理判断题。根据第四段中横线处下文的内容并结合《水调歌头》原文以及中国文化常识可知,空处应该是“但愿人长久,千里共婵娟”。 4.We can infer from this article that the author 　　　.  A.is a very optimistic poet B.likes the first two lines of the five most C.appreciates the poet’s optimism in the poem D.believes a positive state of mind is a must to a good poet 解析:选C　推理判断题。根据最后两段内容可知,作者非常欣赏诗人在词中所表达的积极乐观的态度。 Ⅱ.完形填空 I started writing poetry just after hitting my teens.
