Moreover, everyone understands it in their own way. Some find relief in poems; some read them simply for peace; some read poems for simple artistic pleasure. There are some special features of poetry, which make it quite different from other forms of literature. First of all, poems have rhythmic patterns. Generally most parts of a poem follow the same form of rhythm. Poems may have rhyme, but they dont have to. The lines are neatly arranged together so that they express a particular feeling or emotion. There can be various types of poems but according to the pattern or the form, there are mainly three types: Lyrics(抒情诗): The lyric mainly concentrates on human thoughts and emotions rather than a story. Lyrics always bear song-like appeal. These are mainly short poems. Popular lyric poem forms are the elegy(挽歌), the ode(颂歌)and the sonnet(十四行诗). William Shakespeare, Edmund Waller and Keats are some of the greatest lyric writers of all times. Narrative poems: This type of poetry tells a story. Narrative poems are usually long poems. Epics(史诗)and ballads fall under this type. Some of the greatest epic poets are John Milton, Dante, Edgar Allan Poe, Alexander Pope, William Shakespeare, etc. Dramatic poems: Any drama that is written in verse is a dramatic poem. These poems generally tell a story. Black verse, dramatic monologues and closet drama belong to this type. William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe and Ben Jonson are some of the great dramatic poets. Whatever the form is, one thing, which cannot be denied, is that poetry is one of the most powerful tools to express our feelings. 【语篇概述】本文主要讲了诗歌的一些特点以及诗歌的几个类别。1.

A person might use words that communicate one message and a tone that shows something very different. This possibility for confusion is one reason that businessmen encourage discussing things in person, rather than through emails, as tone cannot be determined in the written form. The same rule is true with children. Children as young as a few months respond to a change in voice. It has been recorded that babies prefer to hear a story read by their own mother rather than another woman whom they do not know. Have you ever talked to someone who had little or no changes in their voice no matter what you were discussing? Think of the teacher or professor you had in the past that spoke in a monotone manner for the entire lecture. It is very boring and difficult to become interested in the topic. Parents should make an active effort to communicate with your child. If your child figures out how to open a box he or she has been struggling with and says “YES! ”with pride in his or her voice, your response should be happy and excited(something encouraging, like “You did it! ”). If you plainly said the same thing, you would not be matching the tone of your child. This applies to feelings that the child may express in everyday situations as well. If a child argues with a friend, your response should not be said in a high voice or with a smile. Seriously and sincerely you should say “You look sad” or “That must have been hard for you”. The tone of your voice expresses understanding, acknowledgement, connection and several other healthy things to your child. Although your words are very important, equally important is the tone with which you say those words. 【语篇概述】本文是一篇说明文。主要说明了语音语调在人际交流中的重要性。4. Whats the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To tell us that our tone of voice is as important as the words we say. B. To tell us that businessmen prefer to talk in person. C. To lead to the topic of the passage. D. To advise us to use different tones of voice correctly. 【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据文中“Tone of voice is very important in human conversation. ”可知是为了引出文章的话题。5. The underlined word “monotone” in the 3rd paragraph probably means a(n)_tone. A. slowB. unchangingC. coldD. high【解析】选B。词义猜测题。根据文中“It is very boring and difficult to become interested in the topic. ”可知如果一位老师用同一种语音语调讲课, 听众是不会感兴趣的, 所以可知此处为“无变化的”。6. W
