No poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed”，until it has been read aloud by someone，a teacher or a student．Better still，perhaps，is the practice of reading it twice，once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end，so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it．
All discussions of poetry are，in fact，preparations for reading it aloud，and the reading of the poem is，finally，the most telling “interpretation” of it，suggesting tone，rhythm，and meaning all at once．Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice，on records or on film，is obviously a special reward．But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and the teacher reading it or，best of all，reciting it．
I have come to think，in fact，that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it，if there isn’t time for both．I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry．Poetry is “a criticism of life” and “a heightening(提升)of life”．It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”，and it “can save your life”．It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies．
I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry．Those who don’t like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else．But those，who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature，about its sound as well as its sense，and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it．
1.According to the passage，to have a better understanding of a poem，the best way is ．
A．to discuss it with others
B．to analyze it by oneself
C．to hear it read out
D．to practice reading it aloud
2.What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply(暗示)？
A．The teaching of poetry should have been much more stressed．
B．The teaching of poetry is more important than the teaching of any other subject．
C．One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry．
D．Poetry is the foundation of all languages and literature courses．
3.The underlined phrase “make room” in the last paragraph can be best replaced by“ ”．
A．build a booth
B．provide equipment
C．leave a certain amount of time
D．set aside enough space
4.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a function of poetry？
A．Extending your life． B．Saving your life．
C．Criticizing life． D．Heightening life．

The Asuncion zoo is looking for a mate for Coco, an endangered hyacinth macaw （蓝紫金刚鹦鹉）, and it is the last known male of his species left in Paraguay.
Coco was sent to the zoo eight years ago. A recent DNA test showed that he is male. Zoo worker Celia said, “To avoid mixing species, the zoo has had to keep him apart from the other macaws, which has left him lonely and bored.” “He is quite sociable, although he has only learned to say ‘Hello’, but when he hears music, he dances” Celia said.
He has a yellow circle around his eyes that set off the rest of his blue feathers. He is more or less a cousin to Blu, the macaw that starts in the movie, Rio. That species, cyanopsitta-spixii（小蓝金刚鹦鹉）, is all blue and even more endangered than the hyacinth macaw.
Like the bird in the movie, scientists hope to find Coco a mate to rebuild the species. Because international laws against animal training are now so strict, nobody is willing to lend the zoo a female. The best solution is to find a female hyacinth macaw in our country. Celia said, “there are at least two other known hyacinth-macaws but without DNA test, it is impossible to know if they are female, and the owners are not willing to help, because the mating process can take some time and be a little hard on females.”
1.From the text we know that Coco ________.
A. is the last known hyacinth macaw
B. lives apart from the other macaws
C. has adapted to being left alone
D. can say "Hello" when he hears music
2.Why is it difficult to find a mate for Coco?
A. Because there is no known female macaw in Paraguay.
B. Because the international laws are against Coco mating.
C. Because the DNA test on female Coco takes time.
D. Because nobody is willing to hunt for a female.
3.It can be inferred from the text that ________.
A. Coco stars Rio in a movie
B. Coco has only blue feathers on his body
C. Coco is the most endangered macaw
D. rebuilding the Coco's species will take time
4.Which of the following would be the best title?
A. Coco, a Rare Macaw-in Asuncion Zoo
B. Asuncion Zoo Is Seeking a Mate for Coco
C. Hyacinth Macaws Are Endangered in Paraguay
D. Coco, the Only Known Male Macaw in Paraguay

Five Steps to Better Handwriting
Some kids love handwriting, but others hate when it’s time to put their pen to paper. Maybe they are worried about their handwriting. Are you one of them？ 1. Here are five steps that really work!
Get a great grasp
Try this—hold your pencil at the top and try to write your name. Pretty hard？But when you hold your pencil the correct way, writing is much easier. 2.Hold it in place with your thumb, and your index(食指) and middle fingers.
Let the lines be your guide
Lined paper is your friend！Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and proportion(均衡)．3. Also be sure to fill up the lined space completely. Those capital letters should be from the bottom line to the top one.
Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. If you rush, it’s hard to control where you stop and start your letters.
Lower the pressure
4. That makes it harder to make the smooth lines. Try easing up and don’t hold the pencil too tightly.
5.
Lots of games require you to write or draw pictures. So even though it’s not schoolwork, you’re still using the skills you need to control your pen better.
A. Play games.
B. Ask for more advice.
C. So “a” should be half the height of a capital “A”.
D. You’ve been writing since you were a little kid.
E. Some kids press down really hard when they write.
F. The good news is that just about everyone can improve their handwriting.
G. The best way to hold a pen or pencil is to let it rest next to the base of your thumb.
