4、什么意义,甚至(有的)看来自相矛盾,但是它们容易学,也容易背诵。通过童谣中的文字游戏,孩子们学习了语言。A小宝宝,别说话, 爸爸给你买个小嘲鸟。 小嘲鸟,不会唱, 爸爸给你买个钻石戒。 钻石戒,变成铜, 爸爸给你买个小镜子。 小镜子,打破了, 爸爸给你买个小山羊。 小山羊,跑掉了。 爸爸今天再去给你买一只。像(B)和(C)这样的列举事物的清单诗是诗歌中最简单的一种。清单诗可长可短,可以重复一些短语,较为灵活,形成固定句型和诗的节奏。有些清单诗有韵脚(如B),但有一些没有(如C)。B我看到鱼塘在燃烧 我看到鱼塘在燃烧, 我看到房子向地主哈腰。 我看到人高十二英尺, 我看到茅屋在天郊。 我看到气球
5、用铅做, 我看到棺材把死人抛。 我看到两只麻雀在赛跑, 我看到两匹马儿绣花包。 我看到姑娘像只猫。 我看到小猫戴花帽。 我看到有人在一旁瞄, 虽奇怪,但也把实情报。C我们的第一场球赛 我们本来会得冠军 如果杰克踢进了那个球, 如果我们还有几分钟, 如果我们训练得更严格, 如果本把球传给了乔, 如果有大批球迷助威, 如果我死死盯住球, 如果我们头晚不熬夜, 如果我们没有放松警惕, 如果我们没有精疲力竭, 我们本来会得冠军 如果我们能干得更好!另外一种学生容易写的简体诗是由五行组成的,叫做五行诗。用五行诗,学生可以用少量的词语传递一幅动人的画面。请看下面的(D)和(E)两个例子。D兄弟爱美,又爱运
6、动 爱闹,爱叫,又爱笑 是我的朋友也是我的敌人E夏天困乏,咸涩干涸,枯萎,恐怖周而复始永无止境F落下的花朵回到了树枝上。瞧啊,是个蝴蝶!(作者:Moritake)G雪儿融化了,整个村庄充满着欢乐的儿童。(作者:Issa)俳句诗(Haiku)是一种日本诗,由17个音节组成。它不属于英语诗的传统形式,但是在用英语写作的人们中间,这种诗也是很流行的。它容易写,而且像五行诗一样,它可以用最少的词语呈现出一幅清晰的画面,表达出一种特殊的感情。上面两首俳句诗(F和G)就是从日语翻译过来的。你知道吗?说英语的人也喜欢其他类型的亚洲诗,尤其是中国的唐诗。许多唐诗已经被翻译成英文了。这首唐诗(H)就是从中文翻译
7、过来的。H望夫处,江悠悠,化为石,不回头。山头日日风复雨,行人归来石应语。(作者:王建)有了这么多可供选择的诗歌类型,学生们最终也许想自己作诗了。写诗比你想象的要容易,绝对值得一试!二、课文精彩选段背诵There are various reasons why people write poetry.Some poems tell a story or describe something in a way that will give the reader a strong impression.
