Talk about attending a poetry contest
Unit 5 Poems
1. To discuss how to inspire someone to write poems.
2. To listen to a conversation between a teacher and her students. about a poetry contest.
3. To do some preparation before writing your own poem.
Learning Aims
Writing poems is not that difficult. We can write about our daily life, our feelings, our loved ones, the objects surrounding us and so on. Enjoy a short poem and see if you can get some inspiration from it.
1.Have you ever written a poem before If so, what did you write about
2.What might inspire you to write poems
1. Before you listen, discuss the following questions with your partner.
Lead-in
Some inspirations:
going for a hike in the park/countryside
listening to favourite music
watching a movie
Surfing the Internet
Sitting quietly alone
Inspiring by a particular event
Surrounding with familiar things
Use your prior knowledge
If you come across a topic you are familiar with, you can think about what you already know about it before you listen. Using prior knowledge will make it easier for you to predict what you will hear. This will also reduce your anxiety and help you better understand the conversation while listening.
Listening strategies
2. You are going to listen to a conversation between a teacher and her students about a poetry contest. Listen to Part 1 and answer the questions.
When is the deadline for the poetry contest
What does Nora mean by saying that she needs time to polish her writing
The deadline for the poetry contest is 24 June.
Nora means it's not finished, and she needs some time to change it and make it better.
3. Why doesn’t Pitt want to enter a poem contest
4. What does George plan to do
Pitt doesn't want to enter a poem contest because he can't think of anything to write about.
George plans to write his poem on the weekend but only if he feels inspired.
3. Listen to Part 2 and find out how the students will inspire themselves to write poetry.

3. Pitt: ________________________________________
He plans to go for a hike in the countryside and sit quietly somewhere
She writes best when surrounded by familiar things and will try
She listens to music while working and writing poetry
so he will notice a lot more to inspire interesting thoughts and words.
George's method
4. Listen to the two parts again and tick the expressions you hear that are used to praise and encourage somebody.
That’s a good idea. Keep up the good work.
I like that idea. Do your best.
That’s a good effort. I think that’s a fantastic idea.
You are doing well. You know what That’s a good idea.
What a great idea! Come on, you can do it.
Your ideas sound very encouraging to me. Give it your best shot.
Praising and encouraging
5. Work in groups. Discuss entering a poem contest like the one in the listening section. The expressions in Activity 4 and the following questions may help you.
1. What kind of poem are you going to write
2. What are the topics you would love to write about
3. How will you inspire yourself to write the poem
4. Will you use rhyming words in your poem Why
I am going to write haiku.
I would like to write about nature and wildlife.
I will inspire myself to write the poem by visiting an ancient temple and forest in the countryside.
I won't use rhyming words in my poem as haiku doesn't usually have rhyming words.
Poetry should always be read aloud, as that is when you can hear the music of the words. When reading poetry aloud, start slowly. Find and emphasise the rhythm of the words. Begin to think about how the poem makes you feel – happy, sad, in love – and read the poem with emotion, pouring out your feelings.
Read poetry aloud

THE ARROW AND THE SONG
I shot an arrow into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For, so swiftly it flew, the sight
Could not follow it in its flight.
I breathed a song into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew no where;
For who has sight so keen and strong,
That it can follow the flight of song
Long, long afterwards, in an oak
I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend.
H. W. Longfellow
箭与歌
且放一箭射入空，
落入尘世无所踪。
逃离视线风一阵，
无处寻觅轨迹同。
奏歌一曲为天颂，
飘入尘世无所踪。
何人眼锐光如束，
寻得歌声航向重。
久之偶遇橡树上，
铮箭锋锐利如初。
歌声婉转始至终，
如得旧友是梦中。
H.W.朗费罗
NIGHT
The sun descending in the west,
The evening star does shine;
The birds are silent in their nest,
And I must seek for mine.
The moon,like a flower,
In heaven’s high bower,
With silent delight,
Sits and smiles on the night.
Farewell, green fields and happy groves,
Where flocks have took delight.
Where lambs have nibbled, silent moves
The feet of angels bright;
Unseen, they pour blessing,
And joy without ceasing,
On each bud and blossom,
And each sleeping bosom.
William Blake
再见，绿色的田野，欢腾的小树林，
在那里羊群多么开心。
在那里小羊把青草啃,
天使的脚步如此轻盈；
他们暗中洒下祝福，
不停地给予欢欣鼓舞，
给每一朵花每一颗蓓蕾，
每一颗心正在安睡。

What is a poem
A poem is a composition with rhythmic balance expressing ideas or experiences or feelings.
A poem is a literary work that is not in verse but deals with emotional or descriptive themes in a rhythmic form.
A poem is a piece of writing in which the words are arranged in separate lines, often ending in rhyme, and are chosen for their sound and for the images and ideas they suggest.

没有人能够告诉我，
也没有人会知道，
风从哪里来，又将去往哪里。
它从一个地方吹来，
尽它所能，飞快地吹来，
我不能赶上它，
即使我奔跑。
但如果我停下来。
不再紧握我手中的风筝线，

它将被风吹跑，
一天一夜。
后来当我发现它，
它吹向任何地方，
我会知道风，
也曾经去过那里。
所以当我能告诉他们，
风去了哪里...
但是风从哪里来，
没有人知道。

A MATCH
If love were what the rose is,
And I were the leaf,
Our lives would grow together
In sad or singing weather,
Brown fields or flowerful closes,
Green pleasure or grey grief;
If love were what the rose is,
And I were like the leaf.

感受绿色的欢乐，或者灰色的苦闷；

The poem Dream by Langston Hughes is very short with only 8 lines. When I read the pome aloud I can hear that the ends of the second and fourth sentences rhyme--- “die” and “fly”. The last word from the sixth and eighth sentences also rhyme--- “go” and “snow”. These rhyming words sound nice and make the poem pleasing to read.
When I close my eyes, I can see different images from the poem. For example, I can see two hands being held. I can see a bird flying in the sky. I can see a field and I can imagine what it looks like with lots of snow. I start to feel cold when I read these lines!
I learnt a new phrase, “hold fast”, which means to hold onto something. “Barren” is also a new word to me, which means empty.
I think the poet is giving us advice. He wants us to keep dreaming, because life is much better when we dream and have something to look forward to.

Writing
Here is a poem titled “Sympathy on the Farmers” by Li Shen who is popular with Chinese readers.
It goes like this: Hot as it is outside at this summer noon time, the farmers are still weeding in the fields. They are wet all over with their sweat frequently falling into the soil, where the crops grow. But who knows exactly all our foods, the delicious dishes on our table, come from the hard work of the farmers
The reason why Li Shen wrote this poem is to remind people of the importance of the farmers’ hard work. I think it’s of great significance that the young generation today should understand the poem and treasure every grain.

It fell to earth, I knew no where;
For, so swiftly it flew, the sight

For who has sight so keen and strong,

箭与歌
我向天空射出一支箭，
它飞落在不知何处的地面；
它飞驰得如此迅速，
没有视线能够跟随它的脚步。
我向天空轻唱一首歌，
它消逝在不知何处的角落；
谁的目光能够如此锐利，
可以追随歌声的旋律。
很久很久以后，在一棵橡树上，
我发现那支箭依然完好如初；
而那首歌自始至终，
都深深印在一位朋友的心中。

太阳西方沉落，
晚星已然闪烁；
鸟儿静伏于巢所，
我也须寻我的窝。
月亮，如一朵花，
盛开高高天穹下，
蕴涵沉默的欣欢
微笑着朝向夜晚。
别了，绿野和愉悦的树林，
这里的羊群已感到欢欣。
小羊细嚼着嫩草，天使们
明亮的双足寂静地游巡；
他们悄然撒下福祉，
所赐欢娱无有终止,
撒向每株蓓蕾与花丛，
向每个熟睡的心胸。
