practice of reading it twice once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end All discussions of poetry are in fact preparations for reading it 用心 爱心 专心 aloud and the reading of the poem is finally the most telling interpretation of it suggesting tone rhythm and meaning all at once Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice on records or on film is obviously a special reward But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it I have come to think in fact that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than analyzing it if there isn t time for both I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry Poetry is a criticism of life and a heightening 提升 of life It is an approach to the truth of feeling and it can save your life I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry Those who don t like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature about its sound as well as its sense and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it 40 To have a better understanding of a poem one should A discuss it with others B analyze it by oneself C copy it down in a notebook D practise reading it aloud 41 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a function of poetry A Extending your life B Saving your life C Criticizing life D Heightening life 42 According to the writer one of the purposes of teaching English is to get students A to understand life B to enjoy poetry C to become teachers D to become poets 43 What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply A More stress was laid on the understanding of poetry in the past B Poetry is more important than any other subject C One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry D Poetry is the foundation of all language and literature courses C Old Computers Make for

carried out by care4 of over 2 700 European office workers from the UK France and Germany found that workplace dissatisfaction increased greatly with the age of the computer equipment We do know that job satisfaction is falling in Britain and most advanced nations said Stephen White a researcher from the Work Foundation The actual reasons for this are the subject of very heated discussion It s certainly one interesting theory that technology may be the 用心 爱心 专心 cause of this in some way White added A quarter of these using outdated computers in Britain said they were quite or very dissatisfied with their everyday job compared to the percent of those who had enjoyed an advantage from up to date technology The survey also said that among workers dealing with outdated equipment there was a 35 percent greater probability they would take six or more days of sick leave per year compared with the average worker In France where more workers use old computers the probability jumped to 55 percent Results also showed that women in the three countries were more likely to be using outdated equipment In the UK where more workers have up to date computers than in the other countries surveyed the number of women using old equipment doubled than of men White pointed out that there were two sides to this problem saying that continuously having to deal with new technology and equipment can also be a source of worry Old and faulty equipment is a major cause of office dissatisfaction There is no question about it but you also have to say that the frequent change of equipment is also or could be a main cause of dissatisfaction 44 The underlined word this paragraph 3 refers to A workplace dissatisfaction B computer use in most jobs C the aging of
