S: Hello. Could you help me, please? I want to read some poems.
L: Have you read any poetry before?
S: Yes, we read some at school, but I didn’t like it very much. I want to find something nice.
L: There are different ways to choose a poem. If you have a favorite writer,
You can choose a book with his or her poems, but if you don’t know any names, you’d better start with books that are collections of poems. In such books you usually find poems by different writes. You see here’s a book called A GARDEN OF POEMS, or this one, 1001 Songs and poems in English.
S; Should I read all those poems?
L: No, don’t worry. What most people do is to go though them until you see a poem that you like. Maybe you like the title,or the topic, or you might like the first or last lines of the poem.
S:I see. What else have you got?
L: Some books bring together the work of writers from a certain period of time.you see, Enlish Poems of the Early Seventeenth Century of Poetry between the World Wars. Other books have poems about a certain topic. The topic can ben human feelings, such as humour or love. There is also poetry about nature, you can look for poems about flowers, trees and plants or about the sea or the countryside .so, what would you like to read?
S:Idon’t know. Shakespeare, mabybe?
L:I think Shakespeare is a little bit difficult for you. It’ll be easier if you choose something modern. What kind of topic would you like?
S:I like reading about nature.
L: Have a look at this book. It’s called The Earth is Painted Green. If you have any more questions, you can come and ask me.

LISTENING TEXT(课后)
People invented poetry as a help to remember things. Before the invention of writing there was no other way to remember important things. People early discovered that rhyme and rhythm were very helpful when they were trying to remember things .So, they made poems to help them remember all the things very needed to know and pass on from generation to generation .For example, to remember their history they recited great stories about their ancestors and the wars that were fought. But people also needed to remember practical things such a where to find good caves to sleep, where to find water that could be drunk or when to plant crops.
We no longer need poetry to remember things. But that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t use it to help us remember and learn things better. In fact, there are a number of quite famous short poems that can help us with things that are difficult to remember.
We can learn and remember important dates in history using rhyme .The most famous of these is:”In fourteen~ninety~two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.” To remember that it was in 1492 that Columbus discovered the Americas. There are also short rhymes to remember how many days each month has.30days has September,April, June, and November.All the rest have 31.Fine!February 28 except when 29.
We can even learn how to spell English words from a short poem .The word “receive” sounds like “believe”, but the spelling is not the same. Listen to the following short poem .It is very useful to help students learn and remember how to spell some difficult words in English and it always works.I before e except after c Or when sounding like a As in neighbour and weigh

§阅读理解
A
To me, life without music would not be exciting. I realize that this is not true for everybody.Many people get along quite well without going to the concert,or listening to the record.But music plays an important part in everyone's life,whether he realizes it or not.Try to imagine,for example,what fi1ms or TV plays would be like without music.Would the feelings,the moving plot(情节),and the greatest interests,be as exciting or dramatic(戏剧性)?I’m not sure about it.
Now,we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning--the kind of music we hear in the concert hall.But if we look at some parts of music more closely,we discove them in our everyday life too--in the rhythm(旋律)of the sea,the melody of a bird in the woods and so on.So music surely has meaning for everyone,in some way or other.And,of course,it has special meaning for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music.
It is well said,“Through music a child enters a world of beauty,expresses himself from his heart,feels the joy of doing things alone,learns to take care of others,develops his mind and makes his body strong.”

Music comes in many forms;most countries have a style of their own.Poland has its folks.Hungary has its czardas.Agentina is famous for the tango.The U.S.is known for jazz,the type of music that has gained worldwide popularity.
Jazz is American contribution to popular music.While classical music follows formal European tradition(传统),jazz is rather a free form.It is full of energy,expressing the moods.interests,and emotions(感情)of the people.It is breaking and exciting with a modern sound.In the 1920’s jazz sounded like America.And so it does today.
The origins(起源)of the music are as interesting as the music itself.Jazz was invented by Ametican Negroes,or blacks,as they are called today,who were brought to the Southern states as slaves.They were sold to farm owners and forced to work long hours in the cotton and tobacco fields.This work was hard and life was short.When a Negro died his friends and relatives would gather and carry the body to have a ceremory before they buried him.
There was always a band with them.0n the way to the ceremony the band played slow,solemn music suitable for the situation.But on the way home the mood changed.Spirits lifted.Everyone was happy.Death had removed one of their number,but the living were glad to be alive.The band played happy music.This music made everyone want to dance.It was an early form of jazz.
Music has always been important in Negro life.The blacks,who were brought to America from West Africa,had a rich musical tradition.In the fields,they made up work songs.Singing made the hard hard work go faster.And when they got to Christianity,they made lovely spirituals,which have become an everlasting part of American music.

Mi1lions of years ago dinosaurs(恐龙) lived on the earth.
In the days of dinosaurs the whole earth was warm and wet.There were green forests and they could find enough to eat.Later,parts of the earth became cold and dry,and the forests there died.Then dinosaur could not find enough to eat.This must be one reason why dinosaurs died out.
We can guess another reason.New kinds of animals came on the earth.Some had big brains and were fast and strong.They could kill dinosaurs.
There may be other reasons that we don't know about yet.Scientists are trying to make more discoveries about dinosaurs.
Dinosaurs were of many sizes and shapes(形状).Some were as small as chickens,while some were about 90 feet long.
There were also terrible fights between dinosaurs.They might have happened more than 100 mi1lion years ago.Though there was no man to see any of the fights,we can be told by the animal’s footprints(足迹)that fight did take place.
