五、阅读理解（20 分）
A
Most of us had no idea what to expect last Monday. Our teachers told us that it was School Poetry Week. The
whole school would see a show called Poetry Play.
When we got to the hall, we saw a big box in the middle of the stage. A man was sitting on it. After everyone
sat down, the man stood up. He started pulling up the sail on a ship. There was no ship. There was no rope. He
didn’t say anything. But we could understand exactly what he was doing. We all got very quiet and watched. Soon
he was sailing on the sea. He began speaking, “If I had a ship, I’d sail my ship.” He was reciting The Island, a
poem by A．A．Milne.
By then we knew that Peter Williams, the man on the stage, was going to give us a great performance.
Between poems, he often lifted the lid (盖子 ) of the box and put his head inside. When he came out, he had
changed into a different character by putting on a funny nose or a hat. First he was a silly guy with big red cheeks
and a round nose. Then he turned into a very proper English gentleman. Next he was a cat. With each change he
used a different voice. Williams was truly amazing. He became five different characters and recited more than
twenty poems in all.
His performance of Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll was one of the best parts of the show. The poem is filled
with made-up words. No one knows exactly what they mean. But when Peter Williams acted out the poem, it
became an exciting experience.
Williams was often very funny. But he was serious, too. He really showed how poems can fit every mood.
He told us that we should say poems out loud. We should all try to learn some poems by heart. He left us with
these words from a poem by Beatrice Schenk de Regniers, “Keep a poem in your pocket.”
If you visit our school today, you’ll see that Peter Williams’ words come to life. In every room you will hear
people reading poems out loud. Ask anyone what his or her favourite poem is. Your friend will probably start
reciting (背诵) it!
Poetry Play got School Poetry Week off to a wonderful start.
41．Why did Peter Williams put his head inside the box between poems
A．Because he wanted to be a silly guy.
B．Because he wanted to use different voices.
C．Because he wanted to act different characters.
D．Because he wanted to be a proper gentleman.
42．Which of the following sentences tells “an opinion” not “a fact”
A．The poem is filled with made-up words.
B．We saw a big box in the middle of the stage.
C．Our teachers told us that it was School Poetry Week.
D．Poetry Play got School Poetry Week off to a wonderful start.
43．The phrase “come to life” in Paragraph 6 means “________”.
A．make a difference B．drive us mad
C．win high praise D．lead to success
44．What do we know about Poetry Play
A．It helped students write poems. B．It was a boring performance.
C．It turned out a big success. D．It helped students know the made-up words.
45．The writer wrote the passage to ________.

C．give information about poetry D．make the readers learn how to recite poems

五、阅读理解（20 分）
A
Most of us had no idea what to expect last Monday. Our teachers told us that it was School Poetry Week. The
whole school would see a show called Poetry Play.
When we got to the hall, we saw a big box in the middle of the stage. A man was sitting on it. After everyone
sat down, the man stood up. He started pulling up the sail on a ship. There was no ship. There was no rope. He
didn’t say anything. But we could understand exactly what he was doing. We all got very quiet and watched. Soon
he was sailing on the sea. He began speaking, “If I had a ship, I’d sail my ship.” He was reciting The Island, a
poem by A．A．Milne.
By then we knew that Peter Williams, the man on the stage, was going to give us a great performance.
Between poems, he often lifted the lid (盖子 ) of the box and put his head inside. When he came out, he had
changed into a different character by putting on a funny nose or a hat. First he was a silly guy with big red cheeks
and a round nose. Then he turned into a very proper English gentleman. Next he was a cat. With each change he
used a different voice. Williams was truly amazing. He became five different characters and recited more than
twenty poems in all.
His performance of Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll was one of the best parts of the show. The poem is filled
with made-up words. No one knows exactly what they mean. But when Peter Williams acted out the poem, it
became an exciting experience.
Williams was often very funny. But he was serious, too. He really showed how poems can fit every mood.
He told us that we should say poems out loud. We should all try to learn some poems by heart. He left us with
these words from a poem by Beatrice Schenk de Regniers, “Keep a poem in your pocket.”
If you visit our school today, you’ll see that Peter Williams’ words come to life. In every room you will hear
people reading poems out loud. Ask anyone what his or her favourite poem is. Your friend will probably start
reciting (背诵) it!
Poetry Play got School Poetry Week off to a wonderful start.

诉我们今天是学校的诗歌周”；D 项“诗歌剧给学校诗歌周开了一个好头”。D 选项中的“wonderful”是主观评
价的形容词。故选 D。
43．词句猜测题。根据上文“He told us that we should say poems out loud. We should all try to learn some poems
by heart.”可知，Peter Williams 告诉作者他们要大声朗读诗歌，要试着用心学习诗歌；再根据下文“In every
room you will hear people reading poems out loud. Ask anyone what his or her favourite poem is. Your friend
will probably start reciting (背诵) it!”可知，学校里的学生现在会大声朗读诗歌，并且还会背诵，这说明 Peter
Williams 的话对学生们起了作用，学生们开始学习诗歌了。make a difference“起作用”，故选 A。
