解析 细节理解题。根据文章首句和What about the awards？部分的“The top three winners will receive cash prizes.Five runners-up will receive a personalized teacup featuring their winning poem.”可知，一年中的每个月都有比赛，每个月都会给前三名和五名亚军颁奖，一共八人。故选C。
2．What would be the consequence of forgetting to vote
A．Heavy fine.
B．Point loss.
C．Withdrawal of badge.
D．Failure of competition.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据How do you decide who wins？部分的“You are not allowed to vote for yourself，and not voting will lower your poem grade by one point.”可知，忘记投票的后果是你的诗歌成绩降低一分。故选B。
3．Who are the intended readers
A．Poem fanciers. B．New judges.
C．Contest organizers. D．Final winners.
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段“Every month，a new contest will begin.Poetry.com prides itself in supporting and encouraging all writers，regardless of background，education or experience.”以及纵观全文可知，本文主要介绍了Poetry.com网站上诗歌比赛的运作方式、奖项设置、评选方式等相关信息，所以读者对象应是诗歌爱好者。故选A。
B(此篇精读)
One of the most commonly asked questions in the English language is “How are you？” and whether a person is feeling happy or sad，excited or lonely，fantastic or heartbroken，they will just about always answer “Fine”．Why is this Is it because humans are not good at expressing their emotions Maybe it is just that emotions are often too personal or too complex to be shared in a casual conversation.However，for centuries，people have often expressed their emotions on paper，in the form of poetry.
The beauty of poetry is that the emotions the poet is trying to convey are often disguised in images so that the poet can maintain a feeling of privacy.For example，in Li Bai’s poem，“Seeing Meng Haoran Off at Yellow Crane Tower”，the poet describes the sail of his friend’s boat disappearing into the distance while he watches the river rolling by.This could seem merely like the description of a beautiful scene，but by reading into the poem，you can sense the deep sadness and loneliness that his friend’s leaving has caused him.
Poetry is also written to celebrate positive human emotions like joy，love and happiness.Throughout history，men and women have written poems to their loved ones to express their deep feelings.Poems about nature，which express the poet’s appreciation of the beauty in the world around him or her，are also common.Sadly，many poems have also been written to express anger at the destruction of nature and reactions to horrific events like war and death.
The interesting thing about poetry is that anyone reading a poem can have their own view or feelings about it and heated discussions can often arise over what the poet was originally trying to say or express.Poetry can be interpreted in many different ways.Often，a poem that one person loves may be hated by another.Equally，a poem that one person understands and relates to may turn another person off.
4．What is the purpose of questions in paragraph 1
A．To introduce a topic.
B．To teach people how to start a conversation.
C．To have empathy with readers.
D．To review the commonly asked questions.
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Why is this Is it because humans are not good at expressing their emotions？...However，for centuries，people have often expressed their emotions on paper，in the form of poetry.”可知，作者在提到日常生活中“你好吗？”和“很好”的对话形式时，对这种现象提出两个疑问，接着指出可能是因为情感往往过于个人化或复杂，无法在随意的谈话中表达出来，然而人们经常用诗歌来表达自己的情感。再结合下文内容可知，接下来文章围绕诗歌展开，由此可推测出，作者在第一段提出问题是为了引出诗歌这一话题。故选A。
5．What does the underlined word “disguised” in the second paragraph mean
A．Seen. B．Described.
C．Hidden. D．Revealed.
答案 C
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“so that the poet can maintain a feeling of privacy”可知，诗人在表达情感的时候能够保持一种隐秘感，由此可推测出，这里指的是诗人的情感被隐藏在意境中，disguised意为“隐藏，掩蔽”，与hidden意思相近。故选C。
6．What can we learn from the passage
A．Humans wish they could be better at expressing their feelings.
B．Many human emotions are very hard to catch in casual conversations.
C．Human emotions are too intense and wide-ranging to be expressed by most people.
D．Poetry is the most important way to express people’s inner feelings.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“One of the most commonly asked questions...they will just about always answer ‘Fine’．”和“Maybe it is just that emotions are often too personal or too complex to be shared in a casual conversation.”可知，在日常对话中，当对方问“你好吗？”时，无论回答者感到快乐还是悲伤、兴奋还是孤独、美妙还是心碎，他们几乎总会回答“很好”，这可能是因为情感往往过于个人化或复杂，无法在随意的谈话中表达出来，由此可知，很难在随意的对话中捕捉到许多人类情感。故选B。
7．According to the author，what makes poetry particularly interesting
A．The difference in how different readers interpret and appreciate a poem.
B．The imagery that a poet can use to express emotions can be misunderstood by the reader.
C．The ability of the reader to clearly understand the meaning of a poem.
D．Poets’ unique description and fantastic language about poems.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The interesting thing about poetry is that anyone reading a poem can have their own view or feelings about it and heated discussions can often arise over what the poet was originally trying to say or express.”可知，诗歌的有趣之处在于任何读诗的人都可以对诗歌有自己的观点或感受，而且会经常出现激烈的讨论，即不同的读者如何理解和欣赏一首诗的差异使得诗歌特别有趣。故选A。
[词汇积累] 1．casual adj.漫不经心的；马虎的；随便的；(服装)便装的→casually adv.偶然地；随意地；漫不经心地 2．privacy n．隐私，秘密；隐居；私事→private adj.私用的；私营的；个人的；秘密的；私人的；隐私的→privately adv.私下地，不公开地；私自；背地里 3．sense熟义：n.感觉官能(即视、听、嗅、味、触五觉)；感觉 生义(文义)：v.感觉到；意识到 4．interpret vt.口译；解释，阐释；把……理解为，领会；演绎 [句式分析] The interesting thing about poetry is that anyone reading a poem can have their own view or feelings about it and heated discussions can often arise over what the poet was originally trying to say or express. 分析：本句为复合句。that引导表语从句，在这个从句中，and连接两个并列句。在前一个分句中，reading a poem为现在分词短语作后置定语；在后一个分句中，what引导的是宾语从句。 翻译：诗歌的有趣之处在于，任何读诗的人都可以对诗歌有自己的看法或感受，并且经常会对诗人最初想要表达的内容展开激烈的讨论。
Ⅳ.七选五阅读(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
I adore poetry.I still remember early lessons on haikus back in my Grade Three classroom.Poetry can be amazing.Here’s three ways to bring poetry into your classroom.
Combine poetry and art
Poems often use a few words to create pictures，so they’re perfect to combine with art. 1 Students can write a poem inspired by a piece of art or create a piece of art inspired by a poem，which can be especially effective when you’re looking at particular styles of art—abstract art or sculpture.
2 They can look at how poetry can be a part of public art or how words，color and shapes can be combined to create something beautiful.
Create poetry displays
Due to their shorter size，poems make wonderful subject for displays.There are a few ways you can display poetry in the classroom.For instance，if you write or explore poems on a particular theme，you can use that to create a display.Autumn poetry can be displayed on colorful trees made out of paper. 3
Students can also use a display board to create their own poetry. 4 They can also write lines of poetry to pin up on a board to continue a poem which is being written.
Explore poetry in song
Poetry and songs are two different forms of writing. 5 They both use rhyme，rhythm and highly effective word choice to make you feel something.Students can also think about how already written songs could be set to music.
Take a moment to share some poetry with your students and open up a whole world of different rhythms，rhymes and pictures made out of words.
A．This can be especially effective with songs.
B．You can start with using one to inspire another.
C．Beach poems can be written into a beach scene.
D．But it’s not hard to see the similarities between them.
E．Students can also combine poetry and art in one piece.
F．They create poetry using pieces of paper with words on a board.
G．Share some poetry with your students and open up a whole world.
1．答案 B
解析 根据后文“Students can write a poem inspired by a piece of art or create a piece of art inspired by a poem”可知，对于诗歌和绘画，后文是解释如何用一个来启发另一个，B项引起下文，符合语境。故选B。
2．答案 E
解析 此部分主题是把诗歌和艺术结合在一起。前文讲述用诗歌启发艺术或用艺术启发诗歌。E项“学生也可以把诗歌和艺术融入一个作品中”和前文构成并列关系，符合语境。同时空后的They指代E项中的Students。故选E。
3．答案 C
解析 根据前文“There are a few ways you can display poetry in the classroom.”可知，本段介绍如何展示诗歌。C 项“Beach poems can be written into a beach scene.”和该空前的“Autumn poetry can be displayed on colorful trees made out of paper.”构成并列关系，都是诗歌展示的例子，符合语境。故选C。
4．答案 F
解析 根据前文“Students can also use a display board to create their own poetry.”可知，本段介绍学生利用展览板创作诗歌的方法。 F 项“他们用展览板上的字条来创作诗歌”呼应上文。故选F。
5．答案 D
解析 前文“Poetry and songs are two different forms of writing.”讲述诗歌和歌曲是不同的，而后文“They both use rhyme，rhythm and highly effective word choice to make you feel something.”讲述的是诗歌和歌曲的共同点。所以空处承上启下，与前文为转折关系且引出诗歌和歌曲的共同点。故选D。
Ⅴ.语法填空(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)
(2024·浙江杭州高二上期末)
“The Space-Time Painter，” written by Chinese writer Hai Ya，won the Hugo Award for Best Novelette at the 81st World Science Fiction Convention,1. (hold) in the city of Chengdu.It is the first time that the world’s largest and longest-running sci-fi gathering 2._______ (come) to China.

Hai，also a financial worker，thinks of 10. (he) more a sci-fi enthusiast than a writer.“I write while doing my job，so I have very little time to write every day，” he said.“But I think as long as I love it and am willing to put efforts into it，I will see hopes and the dawn.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了中国作家海漄凭借作品《时空画师》在第81届世界科幻大会上荣获雨果奖最佳中篇小说奖，这也是该大会首次在中国举办。海漄在新闻发布会上分享了创作灵感，并解释了小说的主题和背景。
1．答案 held
解析 考查非谓语动词。“ (hold) in the city of Chengdu”作后置定语，空处应用hold的非谓语动词形式，hold与其逻辑主语the 81st World Science Fiction Convention之间是被动关系，用过去分词表被动。故填held。
2．答案 has come
解析 考查固定句型。“It＋is/was＋the first/second/...time＋that＋sb has/had done sth”为固定句型，表示“这是某人第一/二/……次做某事”，该句型主句中be动词是is时，从句中谓语动词用has/have done，be动词是was时，从句中谓语动词用had done；本句中是“It is the first time...”，所以从句中应使用has/have done，又因主语sci-fi gathering是单数名词，助动词用has。故填has come。
3．答案 inspiration
解析 考查名词。设空处作宾语，用名词inspiration，意为“灵感”，不可数名词。故填inspiration。
4．答案 a
解析 考查冠词。program为单数可数名词，其前需要有限定词，结合句意可知，此处指的是“一个”节目，表示泛指，所以应使用不定冠词，program的发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。
5．答案 which
解析 考查定语从句。分析句子可知，空格处单词引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the detailed information of the painter of One Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains，指物，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语，应使用关系代词which。故填which。
6．答案 extremely
解析 考查副词。设空处修饰形容词gifted，应用副词extremely作状语，意为“极其，非常”。故填extremely。
7．答案 be explored
解析 考查语态。explore(探究)是定语从句中的谓语动词，与主语that(即先行词concept)之间是被动关系，故用被动语态，在情态动词could后助动词be用原形。故填be explored。
8．答案 political
解析 考查形容词。设空处修饰名词power，用形容词political作定语，意为“政治的”。故填political。
9．答案 with
解析 考查介词。combine...with...是固定搭配，意为“将……与……结合/组合”。故填with。
10．答案 himself
解析 考查代词。设空处作of的宾语，且句子主语Hai和宾语指的是同一人，所以应使用反身代词himself。故填himself。(共67张PPT)

B(此篇精读)
One of the most commonly asked questions in the English language is “How are you？” and whether a person is feeling happy or sad，excited or lonely，fantastic or heartbroken，they will just about always answer “Fine”.Why is this Is it because humans are not good at expressing their emotions Maybe it is just that emotions are often too personal or too complex to be shared in a casual conversation.However，for centuries，people have often expressed their emotions on paper，in the form of poetry.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了诗歌的美，人们写诗的目的以及诗歌的有趣之处。
The beauty of poetry is that the emotions the poet is trying to convey are often disguised in images so that the poet can maintain a feeling of privacy.For example，in Li Bai’s poem，“Seeing Meng Haoran Off at Yellow Crane Tower”，the poet describes the sail of his friend’s boat disappearing into the distance while he watches the river rolling by.This could seem merely like the description of a beautiful scene，but by reading into the poem，you can sense the deep sadness and loneliness that his friend’s leaving has caused him.
Poetry is also written to celebrate positive human emotions like joy，love and happiness.Throughout history，men and women have written poems to their loved ones to express their deep feelings.Poems about nature，which express the poet’s appreciation of the beauty in the world around him or her，are also common.Sadly，many poems have also been written to express anger at the destruction of nature and reactions to horrific events like war and death.
The interesting thing about poetry is that anyone reading a poem can have their own view or feelings about it and heated discussions can often arise over what the poet was originally trying to say or express.Poetry can be interpreted in many different ways.Often，a poem that one person loves may be hated by another.Equally，a poem that one person understands and relates to may turn another person off.
4.What is the purpose of questions in paragraph 1
A.To introduce a topic.
B.To teach people how to start a conversation.
C.To have empathy with readers.
D.To review the commonly asked questions.
√
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Why is this Is it because humans are not good at expressing their emotions？...However，for centuries，people have often expressed their emotions on paper，in the form of poetry.”可知，作者在提到日常生活中“你好吗？”和“很好”的对话形式时，对这种现象提出两个疑问，接着指出可能是因为情感往往过于个人化或复杂，无法在随意的谈话中表达出来，然而人们经常用诗歌来表达自己的情感。再结合下文内容可知，接下来文章围绕诗歌展开，由此可推测出，作者在第一段提出问题是为了引出诗歌这一话题。故选A。
解析
5.What does the underlined word “disguised” in the second paragraph mean
A.Seen. B.Described.
C.Hidden. D.Revealed.
词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“so that the poet can maintain a feeling of privacy”可知，诗人在表达情感的时候能够保持一种隐秘感，由此可推测出，这里指的是诗人的情感被隐藏在意境中，disguised意为“隐藏，掩蔽”，与hidden意思相近。故选C。
解析
√
6.What can we learn from the passage
A.Humans wish they could be better at expressing their feelings.
B.Many human emotions are very hard to catch in casual conversations.
C.Human emotions are too intense and wide-ranging to be expressed by
most people.
D.Poetry is the most important way to express people’s inner feelings.
√
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“One of the most commonly asked questions...they will just about always answer ‘Fine’.”和“Maybe it is just that emotions are often too personal or too complex to be shared in a casual conversation.”可知，在日常对话中，当对方问“你好吗？”时，无论回答者感到快乐还是悲伤、兴奋还是孤独、美妙还是心碎，他们几乎总会回答“很好”，这可能是因为情感往往过于个人化或复杂，无法在随意的谈话中表达出来，由此可知，很难在随意的对话中捕捉到许多人类情感。故选B。
解析
7.According to the author，what makes poetry particularly interesting
A.The difference in how different readers interpret and appreciate a
poem.
B.The imagery that a poet can use to express emotions can be
misunderstood by the reader.
C.The ability of the reader to clearly understand the meaning of a poem.
D.Poets’ unique description and fantastic language about poems.
√
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The interesting thing about poetry is that anyone reading a poem can have their own view or feelings about it and heated discussions can often arise over what the poet was originally trying to say or express.”可知，诗歌的有趣之处在于任何读诗的人都可以对诗歌有自己的观点或感受，而且会经常出现激烈的讨论，即不同的读者如何理解和欣赏一首诗的差异使得诗歌特别有趣。故选A。
解析
1.casual adj.漫不经心的；马虎的；随便的；(服装)便装的→casually adv.偶然地；随意地；漫不经心地
2.privacy n.隐私，秘密；隐居；私事→private adj.私用的；私营的；个人的；秘密的；私人的；隐私的→privately adv.私下地，不公开地；私自；背地里
3.sense熟义：n.感觉官能(即视、听、嗅、味、触五觉)；感觉 生义(文义)：v.感觉到；意识到
4.interpret vt.口译；解释，阐释；把……理解为，领会；演绎
词汇积累
The interesting thing about poetry is that anyone reading a poem can have their own view or feelings about it and heated discussions can often arise over what the poet was originally trying to say or express.
分析：本句为复合句。that引导表语从句，在这个从句中，and连接两个并列句。在前一个分句中，reading a poem为现在分词短语作后置定语；在后一个分句中，what引导的是宾语从句。
翻译：诗歌的有趣之处在于，任何读诗的人都可以对诗歌有自己的看法或感受，并且经常会对诗人最初想要表达的内容展开激烈的讨论。

Ⅴ.语法填空
1. (hold) in the city of Chengdu.It is the first time that the world’s largest and longest-running sci-fi gathering 2.__________(come) to China.
held
1.考查非谓语动词。“ (hold) in the city of Chengdu”作后置定语，空处应用hold的非谓语动词形式，hold与其逻辑主语the 81st World Science Fiction Convention之间是被动关系，用过去分词表被动。故填held。
2.考查固定句型。“It＋is/was＋the first/second/...time＋that＋sb has/had done sth”为固定句型，表示“这是某人第一/二/……次做某事”，该句型主句中be动词是is时，从句中谓语动词用has/have done，be动词是was时，从句中谓语动词用had done；本句中是“It is the first time...”，所以从句中应使用has/have done，又因主语sci-fi gathering是单数名词，助动词用has。故填has come。
解析
has come
Hai shared his source of 3. (inspire) of creating the award-winning book at a press conference.“I watched 4. program of China Media Group named National Treasure Archive and the detailed information of the painter of One Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains was introduced,
inspiration
3.考查名词。设空处作宾语，用名词inspiration，意为“灵感”，不可数名词。故填inspiration。
4.考查冠词。program为单数可数名词，其前需要有限定词，结合句意可知，此处指的是“一个”节目，表示泛指，所以应使用不定冠词，program的发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。
解析
a
5. interested me，” he said，adding that the painter was an 6.___________(extreme) gifted young man but was never seen again in history，
which
5.考查定语从句。分析句子可知，空格处单词引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the detailed information of the painter of One Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains，指物，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语，应使用关系代词which。故填which。
6.考查副词。设空处修饰形容词gifted，应用副词extremely作状语，意为“极其，非常”。故填extremely。
解析
extremely
which is a concept that could 7. (explore) with science-fiction.
The fiction tells a story about the 8. (politics) power struggle of the time combined 9. diverse elements such as traditional Chinese culture，history，inference and science fiction.
be explored
7.考查语态。explore(探究)是定语从句中的谓语动词，与主语that(即先行词concept)之间是被动关系，故用被动语态，在情态动词could后助动词be用原形。故填be explored。
8.考查形容词。设空处修饰名词power，用形容词political作定语，意为“政治的”。故填political。
9.考查介词。combine...with...是固定搭配，意为“将……与……结合/组合”。故填with。
解析
political
with

解析
himself
