課下能力提升(二十四).閱讀理解The Poetry Foundation recently named American poet Jack Prelutsky as the nations first childrens poet laureate (桂冠詩(shī)人)The group created the award as a way to increase Americans love of poetry from an early age.As childrens poet laureate, Jack Prelutsky will give two public readings in the next two years. He will also advise the Poetry Foundation about childrens literature and take part in projects concerning children and poetry.Jack Prelutsky has been writing poetry for children for almost forty years. He has written more than thirtyfive books of poems. His first book was called A Gopher in the Garden.It was published in 1967. His latest is called Behold the Bold Umbrellaphant and Other Poems.Jack Prelutsky is well known for creating new words by combining two words to create a new kind of creature. For example, he combined “radish” with “shark” to get “radishark”. “Lion” and “broccoli” became a “broccolion”Jack Prelutsky says children like his poems because he writes about things they care about. Poetry experts say Jack Prelutskys poems recognize childrens feelings. An example of this is the poem My Sister Is a Werewolf which is about how it feels to be different.Jack Prelutsky also writes poems about American holidays. From the romance of Valentines Day to the thrills of Halloween, from the stuffing (and overstuffing) of Thanksgiving to the joy of Christmas, Jack captures these milestones of childhood with delightfully silly poems.1Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?APoems with New Words Grow PopularBFirst Childrens Poet Laureate NamedCChildrens Love for Poetry IncreasedDJack Prelutsky Awarded Nationwide解析：選B標(biāo)題歸納題。文章開頭就點(diǎn)明了主題，然后介紹了這位詩(shī)人和他為兒童所作的詩(shī)，故選B項(xiàng)。2What is Jack Prelutsky famous for?AHis productivity.BHis long time of writing.CCreating new words in his poems.DHis poems about American holidays.解析：選C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第一句可知，Jack Prelutsky因?yàn)閯?chuàng)造新詞而出名，故選C項(xiàng)。3Which is the right order according to the passage?atwo public readingsbA Gopher in the GardencBehold the Bold Umbrellaphant and Other PoemsdMy Sister Is a WerewolfAb, c, d, aBd, a, c, bCb, d, c, a Da, b, c, d解析：選C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第一句可知，a項(xiàng)的時(shí)間最晚；根據(jù)第三段第三句可知b項(xiàng)的時(shí)間最早；根據(jù)第三段最后一句可知c項(xiàng)應(yīng)在d項(xiàng)之后，故答案為C項(xiàng)。4What can we learn from the passage?AThe Poetry Foundation was set up recently.BJack has written thirtyfive poems for children.CThe new words Jack created in his works are easy to understand.DJacks poems about holidays are not popular with Children.解析：選C推理判斷題。由第四段的內(nèi)容可知，Jack Prelutsky在作品中創(chuàng)造的詞大都是由兩個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的單詞合并在一起構(gòu)成的，并且他的作品是給孩子們讀的，由此可推斷這些新詞都很容易理解，所以C項(xiàng)正確。.閱讀七選五Tips to Manage StressYou cant rid stress from your life completely, but you can reduce it.

It is due to the release of endorphins (內(nèi)啡肽) which results in a drop in the level of stress hormones (荷爾蒙)Be socialWhen you feel stress, your instincts tell you to isolate yourself. When you withdraw, you allow yourself to concentrate more on the problem, which makes your stress level greater. _4_. Be around with young children, who can help make you forget yourself and your worries.Know your stress and personalityDo you know how to react to stress? Do you yell and kick the furniture?

Because the silly dance shows just who she is, and it shows that shes happy. _9_ she didnt do her dance and just obeyed our wishes for “not _10_， Mom”， she would compromise who she is.I owe a lot of my _11_ for the theater to my mother. I now sing publicly like my mother does. And my friends are always doing that _12_ awkward smile and usually _13_ under their breath, “Carolyn, public.”So in many ways Im becoming my mother. Im not going to _14_ singing just because people feel embarrassed at it. I have no _15_ that I will embarrass my own children with my performance of the “silly dance”. So what? Thats who I am.Its my _16_ that everyone should dance to the beat of her own drum, even if the guy next to you gives you a(n) _17_ look. I believe in the things that set us _18_.
