1 How do you understand “as a gift” and “as time continues to drift” in the poem
2 What rhymes can you find in the poem
Answer the questions.
4
“As a gift” means giving three chi of land to the neighbour like presenting a present, showing an attitude of kindness.
“As time continues to drift” suggests that as time passes, the small conflict over the land is not important at all.
The words “wall” and “all” rhyme, and “gift” and “drift” rhyme.
3 What's the effect of these rhymes
Answer the questions.
4
These rhymes make the poem easier to read and remember. They also add a musical and rhythmic quality, making the poem more appealing and emphasizing the message it conveys.
1 What do you think the title means
The title “Six chi away, but closer together” means the two families are physically separated by a six-chi-wide lane. But through their acts of giving up land for each other, their relationship becomes closer in spirit.
Think and share
2 Why does the writer use the poem in this story
Think and share
Learning to think for question 2 Writers may use other people’s words to make their ideas stronger and more believable. Understanding them helps us know the theme better.
The writer uses the poem in the story because it gives the Zhang family a wise way to solve the conflict. The poem’s message of kindness and giving up small things helps the Zhangs and the Wus to end their argument. It also makes the story more meaningful and memorable.
3 What have you learnt from the story
Think and share
From the story, I've learnt that we should be kind and generous when facing conflicts. Small concessions can avoid big arguments. Also, kindness can inspire more kindness.
5
Write a short story about understanding between people.
Step 1:Organise your ideas by answering the following questions.
When does
the story happen
Where does
the story happen
Who are the main characters of the story
What problem did they face
How did they solve the problem
What does the story teach us about relationships
For example
When does the story happen
Where does the story happen
Who are the main characters of the story
Last Sunday.
At the school sports meeting.
Tom, Jack and their classmates.
What problem do the characters face
How do the characters solve the problem
What does the story teach us about relationships
During the 400-meter race, Jack tripped Tom by accident, and Tom fell and got hurt. Jack won the race but felt guilty, while Tom was angry and sad.
After the race, Jack sincerely apologized to Tom, saying he didn't mean it. He also offered to help Tom with his training. Tom accepted the apology, and they made up.
In relationships, misunderstandings and conflicts may occur, but sincere apology and understanding can resolve them and make the relationship stronger.
Step 2:Write about your story with the help of the chart.
Last Sunday, our school held a sports meeting. Tom and Jack were both good runners in our class and joined the 400-meter race.
When the race was going on, Jack accidentally tripped Tom as he tried to overtake him. Tom fell to the ground and got his knees scraped. Jack crossed the finish line first, but he didn't feel happy. Tom was angry and sad. He thought Jack did it on purpose.
After the race, Jack went straight to Tom. “I'm really sorry. It was an accident. I didn't mean to hurt you,” Jack said with a guilty look. He also offered to help Tom with his running training. Tom saw the sincerity in Jack's eyes and accepted the apology.
This experience showed us that in relationships, conflicts are inevitable. But with a sincere apology and understanding, we can solve problems and make our friendships stronger.
Step 3:Check.
Did you:
include people, a setting and events
use the words and expressions from the reading
passage
give your opinion about the importance of
understanding others
Step 4:Share your story with the class.
