A few years ago, pop poets such as Murray Lachlan Young began to set poetry to rock music with some surprising results. People thought that poetry was the new rock „n‟ roll. However, despite the brief popularity of a few pop poets, poetry and pop music didn‟t seem to mix. But are they really so different?
If you look back at the origins of poetry, there is a strong connection between poems and popular music. In Greek mythology, for example, the muse (女神) Erato is pictured with a lyre (里拉琴) in her hand, and looks just like the ancestor of the modern rock star with his electric guitar. In addition, the poets Shelley and Byron were as famous in the nineteenth century as the pop stars of today.
But despite their common origins, there are many differences between poetry and pop music. Pop songs are always written for a public performance, whereas poetry often isn‟t. And the lyrics in pop songs sometimes have less rhythm than those in poetry. This is because the music provides the rhythm rather than the words. Pop lyrics are also simpler and often keep on saying the same thing. This repetition works well in a performance and means that pop songs are easier for people to sing and learn by heart.
Both songs and poems tell a story or talk about feelings. Songs in particular deal with the different stages in a relationship, such as falling in love or breaking up. The words and ideas in songs are usually easier to understand than those in “serious” poetry. However, talented performers like Paul McCartney, or newer stars like Robbe Williams, often give simple songs more expression when they perform them. And some of the best lines from pop lyrics are as beautiful as poetry. So although pop music and poetry have many differences, they do have one important thing in common: the power to make us think about how we feel.
56. Which would be the best heading for Paragraph 4?
A. A common beginning. B. An unsuccessful experiment. C. Some differences. D. A similar message.
57. According to the article, what is the difference between poetry and pop songs?
A. There is more rhythm in pop songs than poetry. B. Pop songs are more difficult to understand than poetry.
C. The words in pop songs are repeated over and over again. D. Pop songs are not always performed before an audience.
58. What did Murray Lachlan Young do a few years ago?
A. He came up with a way of making poetry more popular. B. He surprised people with his beautiful style of writing.
C. He wrote beautiful music for some famous poems. D. He invented a new kind of poem for his fans.
59. The writer compares Erato to a ______.
A. Greek hero B. a relative of a pop star C. a present day poet D. a classical musician
60. What does the writer say about talented performers today?
A. They look at poetry to find ideas for their songs. B. They think their songs are more serious than poetry.
C. They give songs more meaning when they sing them. D. They consider themselves to be more popular than poets.

I was in my third year of teaching creative writing at a high school in New York, when one of my students, 15-year-old Mikey, gave me a note from his mother. It explained his absence from class the day before.
I had seen Mikey himself writing the note at his desk. Most parental-excuse notes I received were penned by my students. If I were to deal with them, I‟d be busy 24 hours a day.
notes didn‟t realize that honest excuse notes were usually dull: “Peter was late because the alarm clock didn‟t go off.”
Isn‟t it remarkable, I thought, how the students complained and said it was hard putting 200 words together on any subject? But when they produced excuse notes, they were brilliant.
So one day I typed out a dozen excuse notes and gave them to my classes. I said, “They‟re supposed to be written by parents, but actually they are not. True, Mikey?” The students looked at me nervously.
“Now, this will be the first class to study the art of the excuse note — the first class, ever, to practice writing them. You‟re so lucky to have a teacher like me who has taken your best writing and turned it into a subject worthy of study. ” Everyone smiled as I went on, “You used your imaginations. So try more now. Today I‟d like you to write „An Excuse Note from Adam to God‟ or „An Excuse Note from Eve to God‟.” Heads went down. Pens raced across paper. For the first time ever I saw students so careful in their writing that they had to be asked to go to lunch by their friends.
The next day everyone had excuse notes. Heated discussions followed. The headmaster entered the classroom and walked up and down, looking at papers, and then said, “I‟d like you to see me in my office.”
When I stepped into his office, he came to shake my hand and said, “I just want to tell you that that lesson, that task, whatever the hell you were doing, was great. Those kids were writing on the college level. Thank you. ”
61. What did the author do with the students found dishonest?
A. He reported them to the headmaster. B. He lectured them hard on honesty.
C. He had them take notes before lunch. D. He helped improve their writing skills.
62. The underlined word “forged” in the second paragraph means “______”.
A. former B. copied C. false D. honest
63. The author found that compared with the true excuse notes, the produced ones by the students were usually ______.
A. less imaginative B. more impressive C. worse written D. less convincing
64. The author had the students practice writing excuse notes so that the students could learn ______.
A. the importance of being honest B. how to write excuse notes skillfully
C. the value of creative writing D. how to be creative in writing
65. What did the headmaster think of the author‟s way of teaching?
A. Effective. B. Difficult. C. Misleading. D. Reasonable.
D
In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity. Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.
I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.
However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which only values the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among those who are

The Bronte sisters were three sisters who became famous novelists． Their lives and works are associated with the lonely moors of Yorkshire, England, where they lived． Patrick Bronte, the sisters’ father, was a poor Irishman who became the parish clergyman of the small, isolated town of Haworth, Yorkshire． Bronte was somewhat strange and inclined to be strict． His wife died in 1821 and her sister brought up the family conscientiously, but with little affection or understanding． The sisters went to several boarding schools where they received a better education than usual for girls at that time, but in a harsh atmosphere．
Few jobs were available for women at that time, and the Bronte sisters, except for occasional jobs as governesses or schoolteachers, lived their entire lives at home． They were shy, poor, and lonely, and occupied themselves with music, drawing, reading and ---above all---writing． Their isolation led to the early developmnet of their imaginations． In 1846, under the masculine pen names of Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell, the sisters published a joint volume of poems． Although only two copies were sold, all three sisters soon had their first novels published．
Charlotte Bronte’s most famous novel Jane Eyre （1847） ． Through the heroine, Charlotte relived her hated boarding school life and her experiences as a governess in a large house． Rochester, the hero and master of the house, is fictional． Jane Eyre was enoumously successful, but many readers were shocked that Rochester, who tried to make Jane his mistress, should be rewarded by marrying her． Some readers were also shocked because Jane wanted to be regarded as a thinking and independent person, rather than as a weak female．
Charlotte Bronte wrote three other novels． The first one, The Professor, was not published until 1857, after her death． Shirley （1849） is set among the labour riots of the early 1800s． Villette （1853） the most popular of the three, is based on Charlotte’s unhappy experiences as a governess in Brussels．

Levi Strauss, who was born in 1830 and went to the USA at the age of 17, sat in the saloon and drank his beer slowly． He began to think． Business was not good． Nobody wanted to buy anything． He thought about the and the pots and pans on the wagon． Then he remembered the hole in Hank’s trousers． Suddenly, he had an idea---“pants”, he jumped up and shouted, “Everyone needs pants．”He hurried to a tailor and gave him all his canvas． “I want you to make pants with this canvas,”he said． “Can you do that?”

It was the beginning of jeans． Now more than a hundred years later, people wear jeans all over the world and everyone knows the name of Levi Strauss． In the 1860s, farmers, rail-road workers, cowboys and miners helped to develop the new land． Life was hard． They worked for long hours in all kinds of weather． They wore trousers made by Levi Strauss． They were the first people to wear jeans in America．
Jeans first came to Europe with the American soldiers during World War II． Soon, workers in Europe were wearing them．Workers liked them: they were cheap, hardwearing and practical．They were not popular with young people generally until the late 1950s and early 1960s．

A
The Bronte sisters were three sisters who became famous novelists. Their lives and works are associated with the lonely moors of Yorkshire, England, where they lived. Patrick Bronte, the sisters‘ father, was a poor Irishman who became the parish clergyman of the small, isolated town of Haworth, Yorkshire. Bronte was somewhat strange and inclined to be strict. His wife died in 1821 and her sister brought up the family conscientiously, but with little affection or understanding. The sisters went to several boarding schools where they received a better education than usual for girls at that time, but in a harsh atmosphere.
Few jobs were available for women at that time, and the Bronte sisters, except for occasional jobs as governesses or schoolteachers, lived their entire lives at home. They were shy, poor, and lonely, and occupied themselves with music, drawing, reading and ---above all---writing. Their isolation led to the early developmnet of their imaginations. In 1846, under the masculine pen names of Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell, the sisters published a joint volume of poems. Although only two copies were sold, all three sisters soon had their first novels published.
Charlotte Bronte‘s most famous novel Jane Eyre (1847) is largely Through the heroine, Charlotte relived her hated boarding school life and her experiences as a governess in a large house. Rochester, the hero and master of the house, is fictional. Jane Eyre was enoumously successful, but many readers were shocked that Rochester, who tried to make Jane his mistress, should be rewarded by marrying her. Some readers were also shocked because Jane wanted to be regarded as a thinking and independent person, rather than as a weak female.
Charlotte Bronte wrote three other novels. The first one, The Professor, was not published until 1857, after her death. Shirley (1849) is set among the labour riots of the early 1800s. Villette (1853) the most popular of the three, is based on Charlotte‘s unhappy experiences as a governess in Brussels.
41. Of Charlotte Bronte‘s novels, which is the first published?
A. Jane Eyre. B. The professor. C. Villette. D. Shirley.
42. The underlined word ―autobiographical‖ in paragraph 3 most probably means _______. A. popular
B. likely to cause sympathy
C. relating to her own life
D. concerning female issues
43. We can infer from the passage that _______.
A. the three sisters were badly treated by their step-mother B. The three Bronte sisters were brought up in Ireland
C. Haworth was suffering high unemployment at the time of the three Bronte sisters
th
D. writing was not meant for women in the 19 century in Britain A. acted too arbitrarily towards Jane B. did not deserve to be Jane‘s husband C. was too bad to be truthful D. should be Jane‘s master as well as her husband
第 4 页（共12页）
44. In many readers‘ eyes, Rochester, _______.
45. What will probably be discussed in the coming paragraphs of this passage? A. The other two sisters‘ works. B. Charlotte Bronte‘s life in Brussels.
C.What is talked about in the novel, Villette. D. Why their novels outweighed their poems.
B
Levi Strauss, who was born in 1830 and went to the USA at the age of 17, sat in the saloon and drank his beer slowly. He began to think. Business was not good. Nobody wanted to buy anything. He thought about the canvas and the pots and pans on the wagon. Then he remembered the hole in Hank‘s trousers. Suddenly, he had an idea---―pants‖, he jumped up and shouted, ―Everyone needs pants.‖He hurried to a tailor and gave him all his canvas.
―I want you to make pants with this canvas,‖he said. ―Can you do that?‖ ―Yes, of course,‖ said the tailor,―What name is it? ‖ ―Strauss. Levi Strauss.‖
It was the beginning of jeans. Now more than a hundred years later, people wear jeans all over the
world and everyone knows the name of Levi Strauss. In the 1860s, farmers, rail-road workers, cowboys and miners helped to develop the new land. Life was hard. They worked for long hours in all kinds of weather. They wore trousers made by Levi Strauss. They were the first people to wear jeans in America.
Jeans first came to Europe with the American soldiers during World War II. Soon, workers in Europe were wearing them. Workers liked them: they were cheap, hardwearing and practical. They were not popular with young people generally until the late 1950s and early 1960s.
It came suddenly. It started in America and it crossed the Atlantic quickly. It was a new kind of music, a new kind of dance. Rock‘ n Roll. The king of Rock‘ n Roll was Elvis Presley. Teenagers loved him. At home he wore a T shirt, an old leather jacket and blue jeans, so more and more teenagers began to wear jeans. They liked them tight.
