Emily was a shy and quiet student in Greenfield High School. Emily was known for her quiet behavior and her love for literature, often found lost in the pages of a book during lunch breaks.
One day, as Emily walked through the hallway, she noticed a colorful poster announcing an upcoming English poetry competition. Her heart raced with excitement at the prospect of showcasing her talent, but her mind was immediately flooded with doubts. “What if my poem is not good enough What if everyone laughs at me ” she thought to herself, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment.
As the days went by, Emily found herself caught between her desire to participate and her fear of failure. She talked with her best friend, Sarah, who had been by her side since they were little. She was known for her outgoing personality and her ability to make everyone feel included.
“You have a gift, Emily,” Sarah said reassuringly, her blue eyes filled with encouragement. “Don't let your fears hold you back. You never know what might happen unless you try.”
With Sarah's support, Emily decided to take a leap of faith and submit her poem for the competition. As the day of the event drew near, she felt a mixture of nervousness and expectation. She spent hours perfecting her poem, carefully choosing each word and line to convey her emotions. She practiced her poem in front of the mirror, trying to perfect her delivery and expression.
But despite her newfound confidence, Emily couldn't shake off the feeling of doubt in her mind. These thoughts consumed her, making it difficult for her to focus on anything else.
It was during one of these moments of self-doubt that Sarah came to her rescue once again. “You're an amazing writer, Emily,” she said, her voice filled with warmth and sincerity. “Your poem is going to be incredible. Just believe in yourself.” With Sarah's words in her mind, Emily felt a renewed sense of determination.

Ⅰ.◎語篇解讀　本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了中國古詩的起源、發(fā)展、特點、主題等,詩歌譯本也受到了全世界人們的喜愛。
1.B　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的“Poems and songs have been the means of entertainment for men from the earliest times onwards.”可知,自古以來,詩歌一直是人們娛樂的手段。故選B。
2.D　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“Ancient Chinese poems, though apparently simple in the first reading, have deeper and greater meanings when read intensively.”可知,中國古詩雖然初讀看似簡單,但是細(xì)讀卻有更深更廣的含義。故選D。
3.B　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“Each poem in The Book of Songs was set to music and could be sung. Folk songs made up the most part of the book!”可知,《詩經(jīng)》中大部分是民歌。故選B。
4.C　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Now these beautiful poems have attracted readers all over the world.”可知,這些美麗的詩歌吸引了全世界的讀者。由此可推斷,中國古詩在海外廣受歡迎。故選C。

【熟詞生義】　set v.為……譜曲
【差距詞匯】　1.intensively adv.深入地
2.comprehensive adj.全面的
長難句
原句　Ancient Chinese poems, though apparently simple in the first reading, have deeper and greater meanings when read intensively.
分析　“though apparently simple in the first reading”為讓步狀語從句的省略形式,省略了they are(they指代Ancient Chinese poems);“when read intensively”為時間狀語從句的省略形式,省略了they are(they指代Ancient Chinese poems)。
譯文　中國古詩雖然初讀看似簡單,但是細(xì)讀卻有更深更廣的含義。
Ⅱ.◎語篇解讀　本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了幾種培養(yǎng)詩人心態(tài)的方法。
1.B　過渡句。設(shè)空處與前后文構(gòu)成的語境結(jié)構(gòu)為:想要獲得更多的樂趣和寧靜,我們不必成為一個專業(yè)的詩人,但是我們可以培養(yǎng)詩人的心態(tài)。→　1　→后文介紹了三種培養(yǎng)詩人心態(tài)的方法。B項“我們怎樣用簡單的方式做到這一點呢 ”承上啟下,符合語境。故選B。
2.G　細(xì)節(jié)句。根據(jù)前文“Everything is interrelated and plays a part in a greater whole.”可知,所有事情都是相互聯(lián)系的,因此這些事都值得關(guān)注。G項“因此,每件事都值得注意,甚至值得欣賞”與上文構(gòu)成因果關(guān)系,符合語境。故選G。
3.A　主旨句。根據(jù)文章結(jié)構(gòu)可知,設(shè)空處為段落小標(biāo)題。根據(jù)其他段落小標(biāo)題可推測設(shè)空處要填的應(yīng)該是一個祈使句。根據(jù)段落中的“A poem is a place where you can pour out your hard feelings.”和“I find that when I write about something I'm struggling with, my negative mood begins to become weaker”并結(jié)合選項可知,A項“讓痛苦成為你的老師”符合語境。故選A。
4.E　細(xì)節(jié)句。根據(jù)前文“Don't be afraid. You can always throw the page into the fireplace once you've filled it.”可知,你可以把你心里的怨氣寫在紙上,把紙扔進壁爐里燒掉。E項“或者把它封在信封里,之后再來看”提出了另一種處理怨氣的方法,符合語境。故選E。
5.D　過渡句。設(shè)空處與前后文構(gòu)成的語境結(jié)構(gòu)為:生活并不完美,不過你還是可以生活在愛和信任中。→　5　→一旦你去尋找,就可以發(fā)現(xiàn)生活的美好。D項“詩歌幫助我們記住這一最重要的智慧”承上啟下,符合語境。故選D。
【高頻詞匯】　1.peace n.寧靜;和平　2.professional adj.專業(yè)的;職業(yè)的　3.develop v.培養(yǎng);發(fā)展　4.start with以……開始　5.remind v.提醒　6.object n.物品;目標(biāo)　7.negative adj.消極的;負(fù)面的　8.present v.呈現(xiàn);展示
9.treasure n.財富;珍寶　10.appreciate v.欣賞;感激
【熟詞生義】　hard feeling怨氣;怨恨
【差距詞匯】　1.interrelated adj.相互關(guān)聯(lián)的
2.goodness n.美德;善良
長難句
原句　And what's more, I find that when I write about something I'm struggling with, my negative mood begins to become weaker.
分析　本句為主從復(fù)合句。that引導(dǎo)賓語從句;在這個賓語從句中,when引導(dǎo)時間狀語從句;“I'm struggling with”為省略了關(guān)系代詞that的定語從句,修飾先行詞something。
譯文　此外,我發(fā)現(xiàn)當(dāng)我寫下我(內(nèi)心)掙扎的事情時,我的負(fù)面情緒開始變得更弱。
Ⅲ.◎語篇解讀　本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了詩人李白的偉大成就及其取得這些成就的原因。
1.and　考查連詞。句意:李白以其非凡的想象力,對強烈的情感的自由表達(dá)和對語言的掌握,被公認(rèn)為是繼屈原之后最偉大的浪漫主義詩人。分析句子并結(jié)合語境可知,設(shè)空處連接前后三個并列的名詞短語,應(yīng)用表示并列的連詞and連接。
2.himself　考查代詞。句意:他閱讀了各種各樣的書籍,通曉中國古典文化,汲取了先賢們的智慧。根據(jù)語境可知,此處表示“使他自己熟悉”,賓語和主語指代相同,應(yīng)用反身代詞。故填himself。
3.wisdom　考查名詞。句意同上題。根據(jù)空前的定冠詞the可知,設(shè)空處應(yīng)用名詞;the wisdom of...表示“……的智慧”。故填wisdom。
4.drove　考查動詞的時態(tài)。句意:此外,對冒險和旅行的強烈渴望驅(qū)使他走遍幾乎全國的名山大川,使他見識了不同的風(fēng)土人情。分析句子可知,設(shè)空處作謂語,根據(jù)上下文時態(tài)可知此處敘述過去發(fā)生的事情,應(yīng)用一般過去時。故填drove。
5.where　考查定語從句。句意:李白所處的社會歷史環(huán)境也促成了他的浪漫主義風(fēng)格。分析句子可知,設(shè)空處引導(dǎo)定語從句,修飾表示抽象地點的先行詞context,關(guān)系詞在從句中作地點狀語,所以用關(guān)系副詞where引導(dǎo)定語從句。
6.a　考查冠詞。句意:這是唐朝最輝煌的時期,經(jīng)濟繁榮,社會穩(wěn)定,創(chuàng)造了一個開放和寬容的氛圍。空后的time表示“一段時間”,為單數(shù)名詞,且time的發(fā)音以輔音音素開頭。故填a。
7.creating　考查現(xiàn)在分詞。句意同上題。分析句子可知,句中已有謂語動詞was,所以設(shè)空處應(yīng)用非謂語動詞;提示詞create與其邏輯主語It之間為主動關(guān)系,應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語。故填creating。
8.production　考查名詞。句意:這使得李白能自由地去發(fā)展他隨心所欲和不受約束的個性,這轉(zhuǎn)而又對他的詩歌創(chuàng)作產(chǎn)生了巨大的影響。根據(jù)空前的形容詞性物主代詞his可知,設(shè)空處應(yīng)用名詞。故填production。
9.to　考查介詞。句意:一代又一代的中外詩人都得益于他的鼓舞人心的詩篇。固定短語owe a debt to...意為“得益于……”。故填to。
10.to be enjoyed/being enjoyed　考查非謂語動詞。句意:今天,李白的詩繼續(xù)受到世界各地?zé)o數(shù)愛好文學(xué)的讀者的喜愛。continue to do/doing sth.表示“繼續(xù)做某事”,故設(shè)空處用動詞不定式和動詞-ing形式均可;又因為主語verse和提示詞enjoy之間為被動關(guān)系,所以應(yīng)用動詞不定式或動詞-ing形式的被動形式。故填to be enjoyed或being enjoyed。
【高頻詞匯】　1.familiarize v.(使)熟悉,了解,通曉
2.acquire v.獲得;得到　3.desire n.愿望;渴望
4.encounter v.遇到;邂逅　5.contribute to促成;向……捐獻(xiàn);向……投稿　6.tolerant adj.寬容的　7.atmosphere n.氛圍;氣氛　8.in turn相應(yīng)地;轉(zhuǎn)而
【熟詞生義】　1.spring v.突然出現(xiàn)　2.burning adj.強烈的　3.owe a debt to 得益于
