Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening (1923)－Robert Frost

Whose woods these are I think I know,

His house is in the village though.

He will not see me stopping here,

To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer，

To stop without a farmhouse near，

Between the woods and frozen lake，

The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness(马具，挽具) bells a shake，

To ask if there is some mistake.

The only other sound's the sweep，

Of easy wind and downy (绒毛覆盖的) flake.

The woods are lovely，dark，and deep，

But I have promises to keep.

And miles to go before I sleep.

And miles to go before I sleep.

诗歌改写

本单元的写作任务是诗歌改写。改写是用不同形式表达同一内容，使之成为与原文意思相同而表达方式、文体不同的作品。改写可以变换文章的人称、顺序，可以改变原文的体裁、结构，也可以灵活运用自己的语言，尽可能用多种方法来表达、替换原文的内容。

一、基本框架

具体写作步骤一般是“三段式”，具体为：

第一段：简要介绍诗歌的内容。

第二段：详细论述诗歌的主题。

第三段：总结照应上文。

二、注意事项

1．改写必须忠实于原作的中心思想。这就要求想象和联想要符合原作精神，不能任意想象，扯得漫无边际。

2.改写要注意创作性。改写是再创作的过程。作者并不是单纯地翻译诗歌，不能仅就诗歌的内容进行简单的扩充，而是要进一步展开种种想象，使人物形象有血有肉，栩栩如生，使故事情节更加完整生动。

3．改写时可以插入丰富的想象，将原来文中没有的东西，如人物的表情、动作、语言、神态和行为等都加进去，在不改变原作主题思想的基础上，写成一篇完整的文章。

总之，诗歌改写应该把握原文的主题，用通俗易懂的语言进行创作，加入自己的语言，使文章符合主题，流畅易懂。

【常用句式】

① The poem is written by the famous poet...

②It is rhymed at the end of every line.

③We can appreciate the image of...through the piece of poem.

④In the poem, we can sense/find...

⑤The poet expressed his/her feeling of...in the poem.

⑥This poem has successfully touched the hearts of the readers.

3．必须结合短诗的内容，发挥想象，适当展开；

4．必须突出短诗的主题，结构完整，语义连贯；

【写作要点】

第一步明确要求

本文要求鉴赏诗歌《悯农》，要求学生应首先理解该诗歌的内容，并根据自己的理解阐述该诗歌的内涵，以便向外国朋友解释，符合英语学习中的交际原则。

第二步确定段落

文章可分成三个段落，第一段介绍《悯农》深受欢迎；第二段阐述该诗歌的内容；第三段发表看法。

第三步提炼要点

1．深受欢迎be popular with

2．目的是in order to

3．使某人想起remind sb of sth

4．有更好的理解have a better appreciation

My Teacher Mr.Moore

Of all my teachers, Mr Moore is the one who impresses me most.Though he is 34, he looks very young for his age.And he's one of the most popular teachers in our school.

Compared with other teachers, Mr Moore pays more attention to using flexible methods of teaching.I like his classes in particular, because he tries various ways to make his lessons lively and interesting.In his opinion, we should not only know “what”，but also unde rstand “why”．So, instead of giving us answers immediately, he encourages us to think by ourselves whenever he puts forward questions.In addition, he often exchanges opinions with us.With his help, we've learned how to analyze and settle problems.What a wonderful world of “why” he leads us to!

He is so learned a person that we all admire him very much.I will remember him forever.

Ⅰ.阅读理解

Do you play a musical instrument? Would you like to share a stage with world －class famous composers (作曲家)? Do you dream of becoming the next Lang Lang? Now is your chance to_make_it_big in the classical music world, thanks to a video－sharing website.

In collaboration with (与……合作) orchestras such as the London Symphony Orchestra, New York Philharmonic and several others, the video－sharing site has launched the “YouTube Symphony Orchestra Project”．

Billed (宣传) as the world's first collaborative online orchestra, the site wants users to submit videos showing their musical talent.

Beijing Olympics theme music composer Tan Dun has written the audition (试听) piece.He told the BBC his latest composition was inspired by walking around the streets of New York and hearing the sounds of mechanics.

The Internet is an invisible Silk Road，joining people across the world.“Anyone can download a score of my Internet Symphony No.1 ‘Eroica’， pick any part of it and play it with any instrument or object, in any style，”he said.

In addition to Tan Dun's piece, users will also have to perform a famous classical piece of their choices showing their musical and technical abilities.A team of experts will then whittle (减少) the field down to a shortlist of semi－finalists who will then be voted on by YouTube viewers.

The competition hopes to inspire musicians from all over the world.Music means so much to different people，in different countries.“It's not just about the note of music，it's about discovery，”said the music director of the San Francisco Symphony,

Michael Tilson Thomas.

With just three months till the competition deadline in February next year, anyone hoping to perform on the world stage and be part of musical history must act quickly.

As New York Carnegie Hall's executive director Clive Gilinson puts it, “This will be a one－of－a－kind moment in classical music, bringing musicians together in a totally new，modern and unique way.”

C．preparations D．competitions

解析：从下文“我”对他情况的了解可以看出，这里表达的意思是：慢慢地我开始与他进行一些简短的谈话(conversation)。第一段有原词复现。examination“检查，考试”；preparation“准备”；competi tion“竞赛，比赛”。

答案：B

6．A.ordered B．believed

解析：从破折号后面的内容“going to school，my new boyfriend and the expectation of my future”可知，这是我的“壮志；抱负”，而不是“身份”“职业”或“爱好”。

答案：A

11．A.an article B．a bill

C．an offer D．a call

解析：根据上下文意“telling me that Don was in hospital”并结合生活常识可知，此处是指护士给“我”打来电话(a call)。

答案：D

C．studying D．observing

解析：他正在“遭受(experience)”手术后并发症，其余三项不合搭配和文意。

答案：B

13．A.immediately B．eventually

C．frequently D．deliberately

解析：“我”和Don从陌生人(strangers)成为好朋友。

答案：D

20．A.unbelievable B．possible

C．enjoyable D．reasonable

解析：现在“我”发现和饭店里的顾客谈话是一种享受。说明作者经历此事以后思想认识和性格都有了转变，同时也与第一段中的“wasn't used to talking to unknown people except when taking orders”首尾呼应。

答案：C
