Ⅰ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一名江苏省的送餐员王计兵从2000年开始在不同的网络平台写诗,终于在2023年出现在中国作家协会新会员的名单上,引起了中国网民的赞扬和讨论。
1.C 推理判断题。根据第二段“Now as a husband and a father of three children, the financial burden on his shoulder has become heavier and his work schedule has gotten even busier. Yet it has never stopped him from reading and writing routinely all his life. His passion for poetry has driven him to write over 4,000 poems.”可知,他在养家的过程中依旧写了许多诗,据此推知,他平衡了自己的责任和梦想。故选C项。
2.B 推理判断题。根据第三段“His poem titled People in a Hurry gathered more than 13 million views within a week. Wang gained inspiration for the poem from an unpleasant food delivery experience in 2019.”和“The government later took action to tackle this type of situation, demanding delivery firms better protect delivery person’s rights.”可知,从2019年的不愉快的送餐经历中,王计兵获得了写诗灵感,该诗反映的送餐员困境的现象引起了政府的重视。由此推知,普通人的声音可以被社会听到。故选B项。
3.D 推理判断题。根据第四段“The subjects of Wang’s poems cover a wide range, including his memories of his family and hometown, and his observations of society and life while working as a labourer in different cities.”可推知,许多人读王计兵的诗是因为他的诗植根于普通人的日常生活。故选D项。
4.A 推理判断题。根据第一段“Coined as ‘deliveryman by day, poet by night’, 55-year-old Wang Jibing earns a living as a delivery person in Jiangsu Province. He started writing poems online in the 2000s, and later expanded to different social media platforms. He also came under the spotlight as his name was on the 2023 list of new members for the Chinese Writers Association, igniting (点燃) praise and discussions among Chinese netizens.”可知,王计兵在网上写诗,后来扩展到不同的社交媒体平台。由于他的名字出现在2023年中国作家协会新成员名单上,他也受到了关注,引发了中国网民的赞扬和讨论。由此推知,王计兵的故事是鼓舞人心的。故选A项。
Ⅱ.【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文。作者为打算学习写诗歌的人提供了几个建议。
1.B 根据下文“Before you start the writing process, you should make sure that you read as many great poems as possible.”可知,这一段建议在开始写诗前,要多读好诗。由此可知,选项B(读好诗。)符合语境。故选B项。
2.G 根据上文“This does not mean that you should copy their work of course.”可知,此处建议读优秀的诗歌,但是不要复制抄袭。由此可知,选项G(把它们当作可以扩展你作为诗人的视野的参考。)和上文一致,符合语境。故选G项。
3.D 根据下文“It could be about loss, love, hate, greed, etc. Your theme could also be about a very specific event in your life, such as your first love or a broken relationship.”可知,这一段作者建议选定主题,但是主题的范围特别广泛。由此可知,选项D(你的主题几乎可以是世上的任何东西。)也指明主题范围很广泛,和下文一致,符合语境。故选D项。
4.C 根据下文“However, it may sound awkward or lacking once you read it aloud.”可知,这一段建议写完诗后要大声读出来听听。且这一句话用转折副词however“然而”与上文连接,说明上文应该指出:所写的诗阅读起来感觉很不错。由此可知,选项C(当你阅读它时,它似乎是完美的。)和下文存在转折关系,符合语境。故选C项。
5.E 根据下文“However, once you put these poetry tips for beginners into practice, you’ll be able to create quality poetry in no time.”可知,此处作者指出只要认真按照本文提供的建议学习写诗歌,你很快就能写出好的诗歌。且这一句话用转折副词however“然而”与上文连接,说明上文应该指出:最开始学写诗歌很难、很慢。选项E(最开始学习如何写诗歌可能进展会很慢。)和下文形成转折关系,符合语境。故选E项。

第二节
【思路点拨】 本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Emily是一个害羞安静的学生,有一天她看到英语诗歌比赛的海报,她想参加,却又害怕失败,她最好的朋友Sarah鼓励她,说她是有天赋的,于是Emily完善了自己的诗歌,并努力练习,但是她仍然无法摆脱心中的怀疑,在Sarah的鼓励下,她重新下定了决心。
【详解】
1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“比赛那天,Emily深吸了一口气,走上了舞台。”可知,第一段可描写Emily比赛的情况。
②由第二段首句内容“最后,Emily的诗在比赛中获得了第一名。”可知,第二段可描写Emily得了第一名后的反应以及对Sarah的感激。
2.续写线索:Emily走上舞台—Emily开始朗诵—Sarah鼓励—听众鼓掌—Emily自豪—承认Sarah的鼓励—感谢Sarah—Sarah表达对Emily的肯定。
One possible version:
On the day of the competition, Emily took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage. The audience fell silent as she began to recite her poem, her voice trembling slightly at first. She suddenly saw Sarah looking at her with encouraging eyes. Her confidence grew, and her words flowed effortlessly. As she concluded her poem, the audience erupted into applause. Emily felt a sense of pride and accomplishment wash over her, knowing that she had conquered her fears and given it her all. Her eyes sparkled with joy as she looked out at the sea of smiling faces.
In the end, Emily’s poem won first place in the competition. She was filled with immense joy and gratitude for the opportunity, acknowledging that her friend’s encouragement had been the greatest motivation she could have received. Overwhelmed with emotion, she embraced Sarah tightly and expressed her heartfelt thanks, attributing her newfound courage to stand on stage and showcase her talent to Sarah’s unwavering belief in her abilities. Sarah, beaming with pride, reassured her friend that she had always possessed the courage within her, and all she needed was someone to believe in her.Period Five Writing

He started writing poems online in the 2000s, and later expanded to different social media platforms. He also came under the spotlight as his name was on the 2023 list of new members for the Chinese Writers Association, igniting (点燃) praise and discussions among Chinese netizens.
Dropping out of secondary school, Wang tried various jobs to make a living, such as a construction worker and working on sand mining boats, as well as a garbage collector.

The subjects of Wang’s poems cover a wide range, including his memories of his family and hometown, and his observations of society and life while working as a labourer in different cities. During an interview with the media, Wang noted that delivering food allows him to interact with more people and experience more things.

Poetry writing tips for beginners
Poetry is one of the oldest and most respected literary forms. It takes a certain style and skill with words to create a good work of poetry. Here are some easy-to-follow tips on writing poetry:
1.
Before you start the writing process, you should make sure that you read as many great poems as possible. Take a glance at the works of Neruda, Keats, Whitman, and Dickinson to name a few of the greats. This does not mean that you should copy their work of course. 2.
Choose a specific theme.
Like any other type of literary work, your poem will need a specific theme. You can’t write a poem effectively if you don’t have a set theme. A theme will give your work both focus and a set goal. 3. It could be about loss, love, hate, greed, etc. Your theme could also be about a very specific event in your life, such as your first love or a broken relationship.
Read it aloud.
During the writing process, it is important that you check how your poem sounds. 4. However, it may sound awkward or lacking once you read it aloud. So take the time to read your work aloud. Read it aloud after each stanza (诗节). If you want to be more thorough, you could read it aloud to family and friends.
Polish it up.
After you have your poem critiqued (评论), now is the time to polish it up. Take their advice and make any change to the wordplay or word usage. If you see any clunky wordplay in your work, try to smoothen them out. Remember that poetry should have a flow, an almost lyrical feel.
5. However, once you put these poetry tips for beginners into practice, you’ll be able to create quality poetry in no time.
A.Free your mind.
B.Read great poems.
C.It may seem perfect when you’re reading it.
D.Your theme can be practically anything under the sun.
E.Learning how to write poetry can be slow-going at first.
F.It is still a very satisfying feeling to create great works of poetry.
G.Think of them as reference that will expand your horizons as a poet.

第二节 读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Emily was a shy and quiet student in Greenfield High School. Emily was known for her quiet behaviour 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 colourful 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 mix of nervousness and expectation. She spent hours perfecting her poem, carefully choosing each word and line to convey her emotions. She practised 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.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
On the day of the competition, Emily took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage.
Paragraph 2:
In the end, Emily’s poem won first place in the competition.

第二节 读后续写
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之
构成一篇完整的短文。
Emily was a shy and quiet student in Greenfield High
School. Emily was known for her quiet behaviour 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 colourful 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 mix of nervousness and expectation.
She spent hours perfecting her poem, carefully choosing each
word and line to convey her emotions. She practised 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.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
On the day of the competition, Emily took a deep breath
and stepped onto the stage. _______________________________________
Paragraph 2:
In the end, Emily's poem won first place in the
competition.__________________________________________________________
【思路点拨】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Emily是一个害羞安静
的学生，有一天她看到英语诗歌比赛的海报，她想参加，却又害怕
失败，她最好的朋友Sarah鼓励她，说她是有天赋的，于是Emily完善
了自己的诗歌，并努力练习，但是她仍然无法摆脱心中的怀疑，在
Sarah的鼓励下，她重新下定了决心。
【详解】
1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“比赛那天，Emily深吸了一口气，走上了舞台。”
可知，第一段可描写Emily比赛的情况。
②由第二段首句内容“最后，Emily的诗在比赛中获得了第一名。”可
知，第二段可描写Emily得了第一名后的反应以及对Sarah的感激。
2.续写线索：Emily走上舞台—Emily开始朗诵—Sarah鼓励—听众鼓
掌—Emily自豪—承认Sarah的鼓励—感谢Sarah—Sarah表达对Emily的
肯定。
One possible version:
On the day of the competition, Emily took a deep breath
and stepped onto the stage. The audience fell silent as she
began to recite her poem, her voice trembling slightly at first.
She suddenly saw Sarah looking at her with encouraging eyes.
Her confidence grew, and her words flowed effortlessly. As
she concluded her poem, the audience erupted into applause.
Emily felt a sense of pride and accomplishment wash over her,
knowing that she had conquered her fears and given it her
all. Her eyes sparkled with joy as she looked out at the sea of
smiling faces.
In the end, Emily's poem won first place in the competition.
She was filled with immense joy and gratitude for the
opportunity, acknowledging that her friend's encouragement had
been the greatest motivation she could have received.
Overwhelmed with emotion, she embraced Sarah tightly and
expressed her heartfelt thanks, attributing her newfound
courage to stand on stage and showcase her talent to
Sarah's unwavering belief in her abilities. Sarah, beaming with
pride, reassured her friend that she had always possessed the
courage within her, and all she needed was someone to
believe in her.
