全国卷 高二 英语（下册）Poems 诗歌专项练习

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 Every spring, our class writes short English poems about daily life. Last week, Li Ming shared a poem he wrote after saving money for a whole month to buy a dictionary for his younger sister. In the poem, he compared the dictionary to a key that opens doors to new worlds. "The little book is as precious as gold," he wrote. He also described the old piggy bank on his desk as if it were a patient friend that had watched him count coins night after night. At first, some classmates thought the poem was too simple, but our teacher, Ms. Wang, praised it highly. She said the simile made the reader feel how valuable the gift was, and the personification gave life to an ordinary object. She added that good poems do not need difficult words; they need true feelings and a strong rhythm. Li Ming was so encouraged that he decided to write one poem every week about the small things in his life. Question: Which figure of speech is used in the sentence "The little book is as precious as gold"?

Her voice rose and fell like waves on a quiet shore, and the listeners sat motionless, almost forgetting to breathe. The poem itself was short, only eight lines, yet each line carried the rhythm of a slow heartbeat. "Poetry is the music of words," she reminded the audience afterwards. "When a poet arranges words well, they do not simply tell a story — they sing it." One young listener, Tom, was puzzled. "I noticed that the last word of the second line and the last word of the fourth line sounded the same," he said. "Is that what makes the poem musical?" Mrs. Hale smiled. "That is called rhyme," she explained. "But rhythm is something different — it is the regular pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables that carries the poem forward. Rhyme is about how words sound alike; rhythm is about how the beat repeats. Confuse the two, and you will miss half the beauty of a poem." Later, Tom tried to write a poem of his own about his grandmother's kitchen. He wanted to show that the room was always warm and welcoming. He wrote, "Her kitchen is as warm as a summer's day," and then stopped, unsure whether the comparison worked. Mrs. Hale nodded. "That is a simile," she said. "The structure 'as + adjective + as' compares two unlike things and helps the reader feel what you mean. Just be careful to compare qualities that truly match." What does the underlined word "motionless" in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 Poetry is often called the music of words. A good poem does not simply tell us something; it expresses deep feelings through sounds, images and rhythm. Take rhyme and rhythm as an example. Rhyme refers to the repetition of similar sounds at the end of lines, such as "day" and "play", while rhythm is the regular pattern of strong and weak beats within a line. Students sometimes confuse the two, but they work together to make a poem pleasing to the ear. Poets also use figures of speech to make their language more vivid. In the line "Her smile is as warm as sunshine", the writer compares a smile to sunshine by using the structure "as + adjective + as", which is a simple but powerful form of simile. Another common device is personification, in which an object is described as if it were a human being. Last month, our school poetry club held a workshop for beginners. The teacher asked the members to read their poems aloud in groups. To everyone's surprise, the members of Group Three, most of whom had never written a poem before, produced the most touching works. Their success, the teacher explained, came from the fact that they had spent a whole week polishing a single short poem instead of rushing to finish several. The club plans to publish the best works in a small collection next term, which will be sold at the school book festival at a price of 12 yuan per copy. What is the main idea of the passage?

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内所给词的正确形式。 A poem is often called the music of words. Last term our English club held a poetry week, and I learned that poets use many devices to make their work beautiful. For example, when a poet compares a girl's smile to sunshine, saying "Her smile is as warm as sunshine", the figure of speech used here is a simile, which expresses deep feelings by linking two different things. In other poems, writers treat an object as if it were a human being; this device is called personification. Another feature of poetry is rhyme, the use of words that end with the same sound, such as "cat" and "hat". Rhyme is different from rhythm, (1) ________ refers to the regular pattern of strong and weak beats in a line. Our teacher told us that (2) ________ (write) a good poem, we should first practise making similes with "as + adjective + as". She also warned us not (3) ________ (confuse) rhyme with rhythm. By the end of the week, everyone in our club (4) ________ (improve) greatly, and we were proud of the poems we had created. I have come to believe that a poem can carry feelings as (5) ________ (deep) as any song.
