16、adilly Circus. B. Leicester Square. C. Embankment. D. Charing Cross.BJenny was a bright-eyed, pretty five-year-old girl.One day when she and her mother were at the grocery store, Jenny saw a beautiful plastic pearl necklace priced at $2.50. So she asked her mother if she would buy it for her, and he

17、r mother said, “Well, it is a pretty necklace, but it costs an awful lot of money. Still Ill buy it for you, and when we get home we can make up a list of chores that you can do to pay for the necklace.”Jenny agreed, and her mother bought the pearl necklace for her.Jenny worked on her chores very ha

18、rd every dayand soon paid off the pearls. How Jenny loved those pearls! She wore them everywhere to kindergarten and bed.Jenny had a very loving daddy. When Jenny went to bed, he would read Jenny her favorite story.One night when he finished the story, he said, “Jenny, do you love me?”“Oh yes, Daddy

19、, you know I love you.”“Well, then, give me your pearls.”“Oh! Daddy,not my pearls!” Jenny said. “But you can have Rosy, my favorite doll. And you can have her tea party outfit, too. Okay?”“Oh no, darling, thats okay.”Her father kissed her cheek. “Good night, little one.”A week later, her father once

20、 again asked Jenny after her story, “Do you love me?”“Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you.”“Well, then, give me your pearls.”“Oh, Daddy, not my pearls! But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. You can have Ribbons if you want her, Daddy.”“No, thats okay,” her father said and kissed her. “Sweet dreams,

21、 little one.”Several days later, when Jennys father came in to read her a story, Jenny was sitting on her bed and her lip was trembling(颤抖).“Here, Daddy,” she said, and held out her hand. She opened it and her beloved pearl necklace was inside. She let it slip into her fathers hand.With one hand her

22、 father held the plastic pearls and the other he pulled out of his pocket a blue box. Inside of the box were real, genuine, beautiful pearls. He was waiting for Jenny to give up the cheap stuff so he could give her the real thing.24. Why did Jennys mother ask Jenny to do some chores?A. Because the n

23、ecklace was too expensive.B. Because Jenny was a lazy child who needed to work more.C. Because she wanted Jenny to work hard for what she wanted.D. Because Jennys father didnt like the necklace.25. How would you describe Jenny according to this passage?A. Understanding and loving. B. Loving and clev

24、er.C. Selfless and naughty. D. Lazy and selfish.26. What does the underlined sentence imply?A. Jenny loved her necklace so much.B. Jennydidnt enjoy the story.C. Jennys father looked terrifying.D. Jenny didnt love her father enough.27. What was Jennys father trying to tell her?A. Obey your parents an

25、d you can get what you want.B. You should always respect your parents.C. Sometimes you may get more if youcan give first.D. Dont be selfish to your own parents.CNo poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed”, until it has been read aloud by someone, teachers or students. Better still, perhaps, is th

26、e practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end, so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally the most telling “interpretation”

27、 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 cannot replace the student and teacher reading it or, best of all, reciting(背诵) it.I have come to thin

28、k, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it, if there isnt 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”.Itis “an approach to the truth of

29、 feeling”, and itcan save your life. It also deserves(值得) a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it now occupies.I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. Those who dont like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else. But those who d

30、o 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.28. To have a better understanding of a poem, one should_.A. discuss it with others B. analyze it b

31、y oneselfC. copy it down in a notebook D. practise reading it aloud29. According to the writer, one of the aims of teaching English is to get students_.A. to understand life B. to enjoy poetry C. to become teachers D. to become poets30. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Every English teacher

32、should teach poetry.B. The teaching of poetry should be stressed more.C. Reading a poem is as important as analyzing it.D. Discussion should be the first step of teaching poetry.31. The underlined phrase “make room” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “_”.A. build a room B. provide equipment C. leave some time D. save some spaceDKelly Reeves was g
