The class followed Fanuc is format, reworking the poem. The students showed some love for DeGiorgio and Zauderer in their version of the poem, with the line: “Seeing my teachers face to face.”

On 25 January each year, the national poet of Scotland, Robert Burns, is celebrated. Burns, born in 1759, became famous at the age of 25. His poetry went on to become famous around the world. The poet died in 1796, aged 37. Burns Night began five years later when his friends gathered on what would have been his birthday, to celebrate his life.
The evening was held at Burns’s former home, with events that are now traditions. These include a feast, where someone reads Burns’s famous poem Address to a Haggis (a kind of sausage). After supper there are poetry readings, Scottish dancing and singing, including Burns’s song Auld Lang Syne.
Last year, Burns Night was a bit different because of the pandemic. In Alloway, Scotland, a local radio presenter hosted a live webcast, The Burns Night In, at the house where Robert Burns was born. People across the world just enjoyed talks about the poet and Scottish music.
The Centre for Robert Burns Studies at the University of Glasgow invited 2, 500 clubs, schools, and universities in 150 countries to share their plans for Burns Night on social media. They used the information to make a map of the celebrations which stretched from Antarctica to South Korea. “He’s a poet who travels very well,” said Pauline Mackay, a leading professor at Glasgow University. “He could write very seriously, but also with great humour,” she explained, adding that the song Auld Lang Syne is all about friendship and unity.
In a slightly more unusual celebration, a Scottish butcher posted a short video online in which he attached a haggis to a weather balloon, flying to the edge of space. “After a year like no other, we wanted to kick off 2022 by lifting the spirits of the general public,” he said.

C
The sonnet (十四行诗) was introduced into English poetry by Sir Thomas Wyatt the Elder and Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, during the first half of the sixteenth century. It originated, however, in Italy three centuries earlier, with the earliest examples known being those of Giacomo da Lentini, a Sicilian poet. The form was taken up by the two most famous poets of the Italian Renaissance, Dante Alighieri and Francesco Petrarch, and indeed the latter is regarded as the master of the form.
The Petrarchan sonnet form in English poetry includes fourteen lines. Each line is ten syllables long and divided into five pairs of syllables. In each pair, the first syllable is unstressed and the second stressed. This can be seen if we look at the first line of one of
William Wordsworth’s sonnets, “After-Thought”: “I thought of Thee, my partner and my guide”. If we break down this line into its syllabic parts, we can see the five pairs and the stress pattern (in this example each stressed syllable is underlined), thus: “I thought/of Thee/my part/ner and/my guide.”
The rhyme scheme for the Petrarchan sonnet is equally as strict. The poem is generally divided into two parts, the octave (8 lines) and the sestet (6 lines).
Early on, however, English poets began to vary and experiment with this structure. The first major development was made by Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, and was taken up and perfected by William Shakespeare. The Shakespearean sonnet also has fourteen lines with each line containing five pairs of syllables, but rather than the division into the octave and sestet, the poem is made up of three quatrains (四行诗) and a final rhyming couplet (对句). And each quatrain has its own rhyme scheme; thus a Shakespearean sonnet would rhyme abab cdcd efef gg. Such a structure naturally allows poets greater freedom to develop ideas.
These, then, are the two standard forms of the sonnet in English poetry, but it should be recognized that poets rarely follow rules exactly and a number of other sonnet types have been developed.
9．What can we learn about the sonnet
A．It first appeared in the 13th century. B．It was perfected by Thomas Wyatt.
C．Giacomo da lentini first brought it to England. D．Dante Alighieri wrote the best sonnets in Italy.
10．What is a major feature of the Shakespearean sonnet
A．Its quatrains are usually stressed. B．It can be divided into four parts.
C．Its rhyme scheme can change freely. D．It contains more syllables than the Petrarchan sonnet.
11．What would be the best title for the text
A．The basic rules of writing English sonnets B．The unique structure of sonnets
C．Two major forms of English sonnets D．A group of great sonnet poets

A lost poem by Anne Frank that she wrote shortly before she and her family went into hiding from the Nazis has been unearthed (找到) more than 70 years later. The previously-unseen eight-line poem was penned (写) by the Jewish schoolgirl for the sister of her closest friend on March 28, 1942. She wrote it, aged 12, in a book belonging to Christiane ‘Cri-cri’ Van Maarsen, the younger sister of her best friend Jacqueline.
Anne Frank was born in 1929 in Frankfurt, Germany, but her family fled the Nazis in 1933, moving to Amsterdam where her father worked in the fruit extract business. But in 1940, Holland was occupied by the Nazis and the family were once again under threat because they were Jews.
The newly found poem was written in Dutch, begins Dear Cri-Cri, and seems to be giving homely advice to the younger girl. It reads:
If you did not finish your work properly,
And lost precious time,
Then once again take up your task
And try harder than before.
If others have reproached you
For what you have done wrong,
Then be sure to amend your mistake.
That is the best memory one can make.
Cri - cri died 10 years ago and her sister has now put the poem up for auction (拍卖), where it is expected to fetch around 50, 000 euros ( 42, 000).
Her diary was left behind when the hiding place was eventually discovered by Dutch collaborators (通敌者) in August 1944, who handed them over to the occupying German Army in 1944.
The family ended up in a concentration camp and Anne died in February or March 1945. But her father Otto, who survived the camps, returned to the house in Amsterdam and found Anne's diary, which had been kept by a Dutch friend, Miep Gies.
Anne Frank's diary, an account of her life in hiding, was published in 1947 and became a global sensation, being translated into 67 languages. Thijs Blankevoort, director of Dutch auction house Bubb Kuyper Auctions, which is selling the poem this week, said: “The poem is very simple but very significant because it is very rare.”
12．Who was the poem written for by Anne
A．Her good friend living in Amsterdam. B．A Dutch friend living in Frankfurt.
C．Cri - cri's sister Jacqueline. D．Jacqueline's younger sister.
13．Anne wrote the poem to the receiver to suggest her ________.
A．finishing homework as early as possible B．controlling the temper faced with blame
C．valuing time and correcting mistakes once told D．remembering to correct mistakes in life and study
14．Which word can replace the underlined word “reproach” in the poem
A．bury B．sell C．blame D．examine
15．What is the passage mainly about
A．A Lost Poem by Anne Frank Unearthed. B．Anne Frank's Another Famous Poem.
C．Approaching to Anne Frank's Poems. D．Welcome to Anne Frank's New Poetry.

The sonnet (十四行诗) was introduced into English poetry by Sir Thomas Wyatt the Elder and Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, during the first half of the sixteenth century. It originated, however, in Italy three centuries earlier, with the earliest examples known being those of Giacomo da Lentini, a Sicilian poet. The form was taken up by the two most famous poets of the Italian Renaissance, Dante Alighieri and Francesco Petrarch, and indeed the latter is regarded as the master of the form.
The Petrarchan sonnet form in English poetry includes fourteen lines. Each line is ten syllables long and divided into five pairs of syllables. In each pair, the first syllable is unstressed and the second stressed. This can be seen if we look at the first line of one of
William Wordsworth’s sonnets, “After-Thought”: “I thought of Thee, my partner and my guide”. If we break down this line into its syllabic parts, we can see the five pairs and the stress pattern (in this example each stressed syllable is underlined), thus: “I thought/of Thee/my part/ner and/my guide.”
The rhyme scheme for the Petrarchan sonnet is equally as strict. The poem is generally divided into two parts, the octave (8 lines) and the sestet (6 lines).
Early on, however, English poets began to vary and experiment with this structure. The first major development was made by Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, and was taken up and perfected by William Shakespeare. The Shakespearean sonnet also has fourteen lines with each line containing five pairs of syllables, but rather than the division into the octave and sestet, the poem is made up of three quatrains (四行诗) and a final rhyming couplet (对句). And each quatrain has its own rhyme scheme; thus a Shakespearean sonnet would rhyme abab cdcd efef gg. Such a structure naturally allows poets greater freedom to develop ideas.
These, then, are the two standard forms of the sonnet in English poetry, but it should be recognized that poets rarely follow rules exactly and a number of other sonnet types have been developed.

A lost poem by Anne Frank that she wrote shortly before she and her family went into hiding from the Nazis has been unearthed (找到) more than 70 years later. The previously-unseen eight-line poem was penned (写) by the Jewish schoolgirl for the sister of her closest friend on March 28, 1942. She wrote it, aged 12, in a book belonging to Christiane ‘Cri-cri’ Van Maarsen, the younger sister of her best friend Jacqueline.
Anne Frank was born in 1929 in Frankfurt, Germany, but her family fled the Nazis in 1933, moving to Amsterdam where her father worked in the fruit extract business. But in 1940, Holland was occupied by the Nazis and the family were once again under threat because they were Jews.
The newly found poem was written in Dutch, begins Dear Cri-Cri, and seems to be giving homely advice to the younger girl. It reads:
If you did not finish your work properly,
And lost precious time,
Then once again take up your task
And try harder than before.
If others have reproached you
For what you have done wrong,
Then be sure to amend your mistake.
That is the best memory one can make.
Cri - cri died 10 years ago and her sister has now put the poem up for auction (拍卖), where it is expected to fetch around 50, 000 euros ( 42, 000).
Her diary was left behind when the hiding place was eventually discovered by Dutch collaborators (通敌者) in August 1944, who handed them over to the occupying German Army in 1944.
The family ended up in a concentration camp and Anne died in February or March 1945. But her father Otto, who survived the camps, returned to the house in Amsterdam and found Anne's diary, which had been kept by a Dutch friend, Miep Gies.
Anne Frank's diary, an account of her life in hiding, was published in 1947 and became a global sensation, being translated into 67 languages. Thijs Blankevoort, director of Dutch auction house Bubb Kuyper Auctions, which is selling the poem this week, said: “The poem is very simple but very significant because it is very rare.”
12．Who was the poem written for by Anne
A．Her good friend living in Amsterdam. B．A Dutch friend living in Frankfurt.
C．Cri - cri's sister Jacqueline. D．Jacqueline's younger sister.
13．Anne wrote the poem to the receiver to suggest her ________.
A．finishing homework as early as possible B．controlling the temper faced with blame
C．valuing time and correcting mistakes once told D．remembering to correct mistakes in life and study
14．Which word can replace the underlined word “reproach” in the poem
A．bury B．sell C．blame D．examine
15．What is the passage mainly about
A．A Lost Poem by Anne Frank Unearthed. B．Anne Frank's Another Famous Poem.
