Question

【題目】 When asked about poetry, most people will say that a poem is a text that has rhythm(節(jié)奏) and rhyme押韻). Famous are the lines by William Blake, which have clear rhythm and rhyme.

Other people will add that poems must have a certain form, with a fixed(固定的)number of lines, such as a sonnet(十四行詩(shī)). With rhyme, most people mean the rhyme of sound of words at the end of the lines. It is also true that much of the classical(古典的)poetry that we have looks like that. John Milton was one of the first poets who started writing poems without rhyme at the end of the lines. He wrote other poems too, though he is famous for his long poems without rhyme. This style of poetry became known____ free verse(自由詩(shī) ). It was not until the twentieth century that modem poetry was really developed. Modem poets wanted to break all the traditional forms of poetry. One of the characteristics(特征)of modern poetry is that it usually does not have rhyme at the end of a line, and it is also often about common topics(主題).

In China, free verse was known and used much earlier. The Unhappy official(《悲哉行》)by Bai Juyi is an example of a poem written in free verse.

文章大意：文章主要敘述了詩(shī)的發(fā)展歷程。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中most people will say that a poem is a text that has rhythm(節(jié)奏) and rhyme押韻).大部分的人說(shuō)一首詩(shī)就是一篇有節(jié)奏和押韻的課文可知。故答案為rhythm and rhyme。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章中though he is famous for his long poems without rhyme.雖然他以不押韻的長(zhǎng)詩(shī)著名。故答案為His long poems without rhyme.

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章中One of the characteristics(特征)of modern poetry is that it usually does not have rhyme at the end of a line, 現(xiàn)代詩(shī)特征之一是通常在一行的末端沒(méi)有押韻可知。故答案為it usually does not have rhyme at the end of a line。

【4】根據(jù)句意“這種風(fēng)格的詩(shī)歌以自由詩(shī)而聞名”可知。“以……而聞名”become known as…。故填as。

【5】本句是一般過(guò)去時(shí)的被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。was known and used“被了解和運(yùn)用”構(gòu)成一般過(guò)去時(shí)的被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)；earlier副詞early“早”的比較級(jí)，much用來(lái)修飾比較級(jí)，表示“……的多”。故答案為在中國(guó)，自由詩(shī)被了解和運(yùn)用要早的多。
