这里提及到exotic、mystery和imagination,没有提及到horror。故选C。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后提及到Plus food and fun for the entire family、Ceramic painting with Jack and Jill和T-Shirt fun with Computer Adventures,没有提及到Fashion show。故选A。
【点睛】文章内容较为简单,集中考查细节题,对此类题型,考生可以首先从问题中找到关键词然后以此为线索,运用略读及查阅的技巧在文中迅速寻找这一细节找到后再把这一部分内容仔细阅读一遍,仔细比较所给选项与文中细节的细微区别。如小题3选择项中的Fashion show,考生容易错认为文中T-Shirt fun就是Fashion show,要记住后面还带有with Computer Adventures。所以我们考生要通过比较这些细微区别,仔细辨别才能得出答案。
Teaching Poetry
No poem should ever be discussed or "analyzed", until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student. Better still, perhaps, is the 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" 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 or, best of all, reciting it.
I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than "analysing" 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 of lief". It is "an approach to the truth of feeling", and it "can save your life". It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.
I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. Those who don't like it should not be forced to communicate this to anyone else. But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few thins 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.
