55-year-old Wang Jibing earns a living as a delivery person in Jiangsu Province. He started writing poems online in several poetry forums in the 2000s, and later expanded to different social media platforms. He also came under the spotlight as his name was on the 2023 list of new members of the Chinese Writers Association, igniting(点燃) praise and discussions among Chinese civilians especially netizens.
Dropping out of secondary school, Wang tried various jobs to make a living, such as a construction worker and working on sand mining boats, as well as a garbage collector. Now as a husband and father of three children, the financial burden on his shoulder has become heavier and his work schedule has gotten even busier. Yet it has never stopped him from reading and writing routinely. His passion for poetry has driven him to write over 5,000 poems.
His poem titled “People in a Hurry” gathered more than 13 million views within a week. Wang gained inspiration for the poem from an unpleasant food delivery experience in 2019. Because the customer made a mistake with the address, he had to rush several times to get the food delivered on time. It led to delays in other orders, as well as punishments and a decrease in his earnings for the delivery. The government later took action to tackle this type of situation, demanding that delivery firms better protect delivery persons' rights.
The subjects of Wang's poems cover a wide range, including his memories of his family and hometown, and his observations of society and life while working as a laborer in different cities. During an interview with the media, Wang noted that delivering food allows him to interact with more people and experience more things. The job has also sparked deeper comprehension and sympathy for others. Writing poetry helps him feel comfortable and find peace of mind.
1.How is Wang's daily life now

B.He tries to speak up for ordinary people.

A.Ordinary people can achieve a good living.
B.Ordinary people's voice is heard by society.
C.Ordinary people's idea can be artfully expressed.
D.Ordinary people are eager to have a spiritual homeland.
3.Why do so many people read Wang's poems

B.His poems care about the unfairness in society.
C.His poems are rooted in everyday life of ordinary people.

Uncertainty pops up frequently in conversations. The pandemic, and the growing climate disasters heighten our awareness of our inability to control many current challenges. No wonder we are invaded by anxiety and isolation. We know there are stress-reduction techniques like yoga. Another much-overlooked one that restores a sense of well-being is poetry.
Poetry reconnects us with the beauty of the world, while also naming its difficulties. Rather than dismissing hardships, poetry reminds us that others have also lost a loved one, experienced disappointments—have suffered as we now suffer. Poetry allows us to identify our personal confusions, breaks our feeling of isolation, and confirms our sense of belonging. Poetry leads us toward wisdom and acceptance.
Science agrees. Studies show that poetry is good for our health. A study from 2013 in the Philippines showed that guided poetry writing sessions significantly lessened depression in a group of mistreated adolescents. Written eight hundred years ago, the poem The Guest House invites us to view life's experiences and the feelings that arise from them as temporary visitors in the “guest house” of self. With patience and compassion, the author Jalal al-Din al-Rumi advises us to recognize that even negative moods are precious teachers for our growth.
Think of poetry as an entrance to a timeless place where we find comfort, companionship, connection, wisdom, and healing. Poetry names the disconnects as well, where we have gone blind to threats and personal sorrows that threaten to overwhelm us. With its precision of language, and its naming of experience, poetry, in a small space, usually one page, has a powerful effect. Entering a poem, readers can sense painful experiences are reframed and can be given a new understanding by a poem. That's because poetry reflects a rich mix of the sweetness and bitterness in life. It refreshes our minds and offers invented landscapes of imagery. For your own peace of mind, I encourage you to take up a friendship with poetry.
5.What does the underlined word “dismissing” probably mean
A.Reflecting on.　　　B.Leaving behind.　　　
C.Getting through.　　　D.Suffering from.
6.What does al-Rumi suggest readers do in The Guest House
A.View ourselves as temporary guests.　　　
B.Take an active part in experiencing hardships.
C.Ignore negative feelings to avoid sadness.　　　
D.Embrace the downside with an optimistic attitude.
7.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.Poems make readers turn a blind eye to threats and sorrows.
B.Poems can only have either sweet themes or bitter themes.
C.Poems possess overwhelming power despite limited lines.
D.Poems reshape painful experiences and restrict our minds.
8.What is the best title for the text
A.Techniques help reduce stress　　　
B.Poetry facilitates friendship
C.Hardships benefit our growth　　　
D.Poetry promotes our sense of well-being

能力提升练
Ⅰ.1.various　考查形容词。设空处修饰其后的名词reasons,应用形容词。故填various。
2.a　考查冠词。空后的story是可数名词,此处表示泛指,应用不定冠词;story的发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。
3.themselves　考查反身代词。设空处作动词express的宾语,与express所表示的动作的发出者(Poets)指代相同,应用反身代词。故填themselves。
4.which　考查定语从句。设空处无提示词,前面有逗号,空后内容缺少主语,故推测设空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰nursery rhymes,所以应用which引导从句。

6.easily　考查副词。设空处修饰其后的动词write,应用副词。故填easily。

1.featuring　考查现在分词。句意:1月6日周五晚,一场以中国古代唐诗为特色的音乐会在费城举行,以庆祝即将到来的中国农历新年。句中已有谓语was held,所以设空处应用非谓语动词;提示词feature与被修饰词A concert之间是主动关系,应用现在分词作后置定语。故填featuring。
2.composers　考查名词。句意:“Echoes of Ancient Tang Poems”这场1.5小时长的音乐会吸引了两千多名观众,通过年轻的国际作曲家对古诗的重新诠释,音乐会使唐朝变得鲜活起来。设空处作介词by的宾语,应用名词;根据语境可知,此处表示多个作曲家,应用名词复数。故填composers。
3.The　考查冠词。句意:这场音乐会由Suzhou国际青年歌唱家艺术节和费城交响乐团联合推出,也是为了纪念该乐团在1973年的历史性的中国巡演50周年。上文已经提到“A concert”,此处表示特指,应用定冠词。故填The。
4.who　考查定语从句。句意:中国驻纽约总领事黄屏在演出前发表评论说:“自从费城交响乐团访问中国以来,它已经成为中国最受欢迎的外国交响乐团之一。费城交响乐团与中国合作伙伴之间的故事表明,人民之间的交流是中美关系发展的强大而持续的驱动力。”分析句子可知,设空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词The Chinese Consul General in New York Huang Ping指人,关系词在从句中作主语,所以应用who引导从句。
5.has become　考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意同上题。分析句子可知,设空处在句中作谓语,根据时间状语since the ensemble's trip to China可知应用现在完成时;主语The Philadelphia Orchestra是单数,助动词应用has。故填has become。

1.D　推理判断题。根据第二段可知,现在作为一个丈夫和三个孩子的父亲,他肩上的经济负担变得更重了,他的工作日程也变得更忙了。然而,这从未阻止过他的日常阅读和写作。他对诗歌的热爱驱使他写了五千多首诗。由此可知,他在辛苦工作的同时坚持自己的梦想,即“他平衡了自己的责任和梦想”。故选D。
2.B　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“His poem titled ‘People in a Hurry’ gathered more than 13 million views within a week. Wang gained inspiration...experience in 2019.”和“The government later took action to tackle... protect delivery persons' rights.”可知,他从2019年一次不愉快的送餐经历中获得了写诗的灵感,该诗反映的送餐员面临的困境得到了普通百姓和政府的关注。后来政府采取措施解决这类情况,快递员的权利得到了更好的保护。由此可推断,普通人的声音可以被社会听到。故选B。
3.C　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The subjects of Wang's poems cover a wide range, including his memories of his family and hometown, and his observations of society and life while working as a laborer in different cities.”可知,王计兵的诗歌题材广泛,包括他对家庭和家乡的回忆,以及他在不同城市打工时对社会和生活的观察。由此可推断,许多人读王计兵的诗是因为他的诗来源于普通人的日常生活。故选C。

◎语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了诗歌有治愈的力量,可以让我们找到安慰、陪伴、联系、智慧和治愈。
5.B　词义猜测题。根据画线词下文“poetry reminds us that others have also lost a loved one, experienced disappointments—have suffered as we now suffer”可知,诗歌提醒我们,其他人也失去了所爱之人,经历了失望——经受过了我们现在所经受的痛苦。因此,画线词的意思是“遗忘”。故选B。
6.D　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“With patience and compassion, the author Jalal al-Din al-Rumi advises us to recognize that even negative moods are precious teachers for our growth.”可知,作者以耐心和同情心建议我们要认识到,即使是负面情绪也是我们成长的宝贵经历,具有指导意义。因此,al-Rumi建议要用乐观的态度拥抱负面的事物。故选D。
7.C　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“With its precision of language, and its naming of experience, poetry, in a small space, usually one page, has a powerful effect.”可推断,尽管诗歌的行数有限,但却充满巨大的力量。故选C。
易错归因
本题易错选B。最后一段第一句提到,我们可以在诗歌里找到安慰、陪伴、联系、智慧和治愈。诗歌有甜蜜或痛苦的主题,但这些不是全部的主题。B项中的 “only”一词过于绝对,犯了主观臆断的错误。
8.D　主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段中的“Another much-overlooked one that restores a sense of well-being is poetry.”和最后一段中的“we find comfort, companionship, connection, wisdom, and healing”可知,本文主要讲述了诗歌有治愈的力量,可以提升我们的幸福感。所以D项“诗歌提升我们的幸福感”最适合作为文章的标题。故选D。
【高频词汇】　1.heighten v.提高;加强　2.restore v.恢复;修复;归还　3.identify v.发现;认出　4.confirm v.确认;证实　5.lessen v.减少　6.mistreat v.虐待

长难句
原句　Written eight hundred years ago, the poem The Guest House invites us to view life's experiences and the feelings that arise from them as temporary visitors in the “guest house” of self.
分析　本句为主从复合句。“Written eight hundred years ago”为过去分词短语作状语;that引导定语从句,修饰先行词feelings。
译文　《客栈》这首诗写于八百年前,在诗里作者邀请我们把人生的经历以及由此产生的感受看作自我的“客栈”里的临时访客。
