12、heir great interest in Chinese poems,10_ Tang poetry，a lot of which have been translated into English.,Task 4,请将课文A Few Simple Forms of English Poems翻译成汉语，然后对照“译文助读”自主勘误。译文助读 简体英文诗 人们写诗有着各种各样的理由。有些诗是为了叙事，或者说是描述某件事并给读者以强烈的印象。而有些诗则是为了传达某种感情。诗人用许多不同格式的诗来表达自己的情感。本文只谈了几种格式比较简单的诗。 孩子们最早学习的英文诗是童谣。像右边的这首童谣(
13、A)至今仍然是常见的。童谣的语言具体但富有想像力，这能使小孩子们快乐，因为它们押韵，节奏感强，而且重复多遍。童谣不一定有什么意义，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
14、到鱼塘在燃烧我看到鱼塘在燃烧，我看到房子向地主哈腰。我看到人高一丈八，我看到茅屋在天郊。我看到气球用铅做，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
15、行诗，学生可以用少量的词语传递一幅动人的画面。请看下一页上端的D和E两个例子。 D 兄弟爱美，又爱运动爱闹，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
16、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。 (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。写诗比你想像的要容易，绝对值得一试！,二、将下列单词或词组译成英语，然后参阅Unit 2的词汇表自主勘误。 1传达，运送 vt._ 2具体的 adj._ 3灵活的，可弯曲的 adj._ 4最后 adv._ 5转化，变换 v_ 6适当的 adj._ 7交换，调换 v_ 8赞助人 n倡议 v_ 9模式，式样 n_,答案：
