3.What happens to Fortunato in the end?
He was walled up alive behind bricks in a wine cellar.
4.Describe briefly how Poe characterizes Montresor and Fortunato as contrasts?
Poe uses color imagery to characterize them. Montresor face is covered in a black silk mask, In contrast, Fortunato dresses the motley-colored costume of the court fool, who gets literally and tragically fooled by Montresor's masked motives.
The color schemes here represent the irony of Fortunato's death sentence.
Through the acts, words, and thoughts of Fortunato,we know He is greedy, he was lured into the dark and somber vaults just because a cask of Amontillado.
This is also due to his bad habit of bibulosity(酗酒）. He lost himself on hearing the wine.
At the same time, he was cheated by his enemy, which reflected his ignorance.
When he heard the pretended compliment from Montresor, he became very boastful and arrogant.
He was easily confused by the superficial phenomena and failed to watch out for others. He couldn’t tolerate that others were stronger than him.
For example, Montresor always stimulated him with Luchresi who was good at connoisseur（鉴赏）in wine. Under the impulse of vanity, he fell into Montreso r’s terrible trap.
In fact, he was careless and foolish and didn’t find that the danger was approaching him.
He looked down upon Montresor and others.
He didn’t realize his foolishness until the death was coming.
Talking from the appearance, Monstresor was a well-educated and ―kind‖ businessman.
He enjoyed the honor and respect in the city. But in fact, he was an evil and awful person.
His inner feelings were so cruel that they even made people tremble.
Under his rich appearance was the dirty soul and despicable character.
We couldn’t see any glorious virtues in his mind. Instead, his heart was cold and dark.
It was the revenge that threw Montresor into the deep evil valley.
unit 4 Nathaniel Hawthorne
Questions :1.Why is the prison the setting of Chapter 1 ?
No matter how optimistic the founders of new colonies may be, they are quick to establish a prison and a cemetery in their ―Utopia,‖ for they know that misbehavior, evil, and death are unavoidable.
This belief fits into the larger Puritan doctrine, which puts heavy emphasis on the idea of original sin—the notion that all people are born sinners because of the initial transgressions of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. he is therefore using the prison building to represent the crime and the punishment which are aspect of civilized life
What is the implication of the description of the roses?
The rosebush symbolizes the ability of nature to endure and outlast man's activities.
The narrator suggests that roses offer a reminder of Nature's kindness to the condemned; for his tale, he says, it will provide either a ―sweet moral blossom‖ or else some relief in the face of unrelenting sorrow and gloom.
2.Describe the appearance of Hester Prynne and the attitude of the people towards her.
The second paragraph on page 30.
The crowd in front of the jail is a mixture of men and women, all maintaining severe looks of disapproval. Several of the women begin to discuss Hester Prynne, and they soon vow that Hester would not have received such a light sentence for her crime if they had been the judges.
One woman, the ugliest of the group, goes so far as to advocate death for Hester.
3.What has happened to Hester?
As a young woman, Hester married an elderly scholar, Chillingworth, who sent her ahead to America to live.
While waiting for him, she had an affair with a Puritan minister named Dimmesdale, after which she gave birth to Pearl.
The scarlet letter is her punishment for her sin and her secrecy.
Why does she make the embroidery of the letter A so elaborate?
It seems to declare that she is proud, rather than ashamed, of her sin.
In reality, however, Hester simply accepts the ―sin‖ and its symbol as part of herself, just as she accepts her child.
And although she can hardly believe her present ―realities,‖ she takes them as they are rather than
resisting them or trying to atone for them.
How does this tell us about her character?
Throughout The Scarlet Letter Hester is portrayed as an intelligent, capable. It is the extraordinary circumstances shaping her that make her such an important figure.
Unit5 Herman Melville
Questions
1.What are the stories Ismael tells about Moby Dick?
Ishmael compares the legend of Moby Dick to his experience of the whale.
He notes that sperm whale attacks have increased recently and that superstitious sailors have come to regard these attacks as having an intelligent, even supernatural origin.
In particular, wild rumors about Moby Dick circulate among whalemen, suggesting that he can be in more than one place at the same time and that he is immortal. Ishmael remarks that even the wildest of rumors usually contains some truth.
Whales, for instance, have been known to travel with remarkable speed from the Atlantic to the Pacific; thus, it is possible for a whale to be caught in the Pacific with the harpoons of a Greenland ship in it. Moby Dick, who has defied capture numerous times, exhibits an ―intelligent malignity‖（狠毒）in his attacks on men
2.Why does Ahab react so violently against the white whale?
First, he lost one of his legs because of the white whale.
Second,He considers Moby Dick the embodiment of evil in the world, and he pursues the White Whale，because he believes it his inescapable fate to destroy this evil.
Ishmael suggests that Ahab is ―crazy‖and call him ―a raving lunatic.‖ Do you agree with him? Why or why not?
Ishmael describes Ahab as mad in his narration, and it does indeed seem mad to try to fight the forces of nature or God.
3.What narrative features can you find in the selected chapter?
In the selected charpter, Melville employed the technique of multiple view of his narrative to portray Moby Dick to achieve the effect of ambiguity and let readers judge the meaning.

Questions1: Why do you think Mr.Wheeler is so eager to tell these stories?
From Mr.Wheeler’s behaviors and contents of his narration we can know he is so eager to tell these stories.First, when "I" asked him to tell "me" something about W.Smiley, he ― backed me into a corner and blockaded me with his chair, and then s at down and reeled off the narrative‖. And during the process of telling his stories, he never paid any attention to others'response to his story and just went on telling what amused him. At last when the listener felt boring and wanted to leave, Mr.Wheeler even didn't notice it and still asked him to sit there listening to him.
Question2: Does his audience share his enthusiasm in telling the stories? No. the audience does not show any interest in Mr.Wheeler’ stories. In fact, the narrator was very feveris h about his stories, but ,in the eyes of the listener,the stories were very boring and had nothing to do with his preoccupation. As an educated man, the listener couldn't understand the way of laborers for joy, and he would never bother himself to understa nd it. So after the long time of Mr.Wheeler’ solo narration and when the audience got a chance, he fled away.
Question3: Do you think the narrator and his listener ever suspect the presence of humor? Why? How do you interpret their interactions? The narrator and his listener never noticed or suspected the presence of humor.During the intercourse,the narrator went vigorously on his monotonous narrative "wihout a little smiling" talking about the animals and the things like ,while the listener felt rather puzzled or bothered by his stories.It seemed to be kind of coarse things. So the two different scenes go on separately without a intersection.And their interaction was a complete failure according toour common sense about communication.But it in this sense produced the effect of humor which can be tasted by our readers due to the skills adopted by Mark Twain .
Unit 14 F·Scott Fitzgerald
1.Do you think Gatsby deserves to be called “the great”? Why?
（1）I think it is too complicated to simply say Gatsby deserves to be ―great‖or not.For one thing, Gatsby was ambitious, hardworking, generous and passionate. He was so extremely loyal to his love and Daisy that he could do anything to get Daisy back: he did shady business to earn money and social position; he threw luxurious parties just to draw Daisy’s attention; he could take the blame for a death that he did not cause.
（2）In this respect, he is much ―greater‖than his contemporaries. For another thing, Gatsby never realized that Daisy wasn’t the girl he loved anymore. Gatsby was so innocent that he staked everything on his dreams, not realizing that his dreams are unworthy of him. He wasn’t sober enough to be great.
2.Does “the green light”Gatsby believed in exist in reality? Why or why not ?
（1）I think ―the green light‖does not exist in reality. Because the green light which situated at the end of Daisy’s East Egg dock and barely vis ible from West Egg lawn represents Gatsby’s unattainable dream. Although the color itself can be seen as hope a nd bright future, Gatsby’s quest for Daisy back is doomed to be impossible. Daisy lived in ―a material world without being real, where poor ghost s, breathing dream like air‖.
（2）After five years when Gatsby met Daisy again, the miracle Daisy had lost her original glory. Therefore, there is no delaying that Gatsby’s dream would not come true. In the novel, the green light not only represents that innocent Gatsby looked forward to the future, but also means his longing for the history –his happy past with Daisy. The distinction between ideal and reality was huge. As if American dream between golden past and golden future always suffered from the realistic betrayal and crush.
3.What does Gatsby’s Schedule reveal about him and how does it relate to the American Dream?
（1）The schedule is a reflection of Gatsby’s determination and ambition. It reveals that he is hard on himself in pursuit of his goal—to be an upper-class man.
（2）On one hand, we can know that he is persistent in pursuing his American Dream-- to attain wealth and happiness through his struggle. On the other hand, he is too idealistic and naive.
（3）He tries his best to make money and learns everything required to be an upper-class man so that he can get access to his beloved girl.Money is important，but there are other barriers difficult to penetrate. The girl he loves is as vulgar and superficial as others in her circle, she is unable to meets Gatsby’s romantic fantasy. So his dream is destined to shatter, which indicates the disillusion of American Dream.
4.When you read the line ―He (the man with owl-eyed glasses) took off his glasses and wiped them again, outside and in ,‖ what images does it create in your mind, given the novel’s numerous references to the strikingly strange scene of the spectacled eyes?
（1）From this line , superficially, owl-eyes is a person with thick and blurry glasses who can not see clearly all the things in the world. However, we know he is actually an owl-wise observer and sees more clearly than anyone else in the novel. Owl-Eyes, except Nick, is the only friend to appear at the rain-soaked burial of Gatsby, when others are unwilling to come. He feels sympathy for Gatsby’s tragedy.
（2）After reading this line, I cannot help thinking of the Dr.Eckleburg billboard with its huge yellow spectacles in this novel. In many rainy days, Dr. Eckleburg’s eyes are also dimmed and seem blind. But in fact this is a pair of "all-seeing" eyes. The Owl-Eyed Man is similar to Dr. Eckleburg, sadly looking at the people’s life and idealism of this time. B oth of them symbolize an uninvolved spectator god. They watch all the activities of the humans. Owl-eyes is the avatar of the sightless Dr. Eckleburg.
Unit 16 Ernest Hemingway
1. How do you interpret the irony of the title after reading the story?
（1）The title ―A Clean Well-Lighted Place‖refers to the caféin the text. The caféwas very clean and well- lighted. From the literary meaning, we may feel this place was very warm and comfortable, was a place where people need warmth wanted to go. So the old man, who was rich but deaf and lonely came here to find warmth and avoided nada. It was the only place he could go and could find some comfort.（2）However, the younger waiter was very selfish. As his wife was waiting him on the bed, he wanted to go home early. Therefore, he refused to offer the old man another cup of wine by the excuse that the business was finished. In fact, there was still an hour from closing time. The younger thought an hour was more important to him than to the old man. The old man needed to leave the only place where he could get far away from nada/ nothing. This café should be warm but the younger waiter forced the lonely and deaf to leave without any sympathy. This is the irony of the title.
2. Do you think youth and confidence can help one withstand the metaphorical dark？Why or why not? （1）I don’t think so.In our opinion, the metaphorical dark means nada，nothing in one’s inner heart. In the article, the younger waiter had both youth and confidence; however, he never made full use of them. As we can see, he didn’t understand the old man’s suicide and excessive drinking, and failed to see his tomorrow through the old man’s present situation.
（2）What’s more, he had no idea that youth is not permanent, which cannot guarantee love and work. From above, there is no denying that he didn’t realize his nada. Therefore, his youth and confidence never contributed to withstanding his metaphorical dark.
（3）I think that, nowadays, youth and confidence do can help to withstand the metaphorical dark, for one can bravely face the reality and overcome the nada with youth and confidence. But they only serve as two main factors. In fact, we need some other factors such as courage, dignity and so on if we want to withstand the metaphorical dark successfully.
3.The older waiter said to the younger waiter:“We are of two different kinds.”In what way do you think they are different?
（1）I think they are different from each other in the following four aspects：In the beginning, they are in different ages.The older waiter was in his middle age; while the other was much younger.
（2）Then, they have different attitudes towards the old man. From the article, we know the older waiter had suffered a lot. He had maintained a clean and well-lighted place in his heart, and he could understand the old man and show sympathy to him. However, the young man was very selfish. He wanted to go home early so that he finished the business one hour earlier and forced the old man to leave. He showed hatred rather than sympathy to the old man.
（3）Next, they have different attitudes towards life. The older waiter had a deep sense of life. He was brave and wanted to fight again nada. Besides, he cared about others. The younger one was totally different; he has a shadow understanding of life. He satisfied with his present love and work, he only care about himself and was reluctant to take others into consideration. He even never thought of his future.（4）Finally, they have different attitudes towards nada. The older waiter had realized that it is impossible to avoid nada in one’s whole life. The only thing he can do is to keep a kind of clearness in his own mind. So he was willing to work late for the lonely old man and was pleased to help those who are suffering nada. But out of youth and confidence, he failed to overcome nada. On the contrary, the younger waiter had the two most important factors for withstanding nada; however, he didn’t realize the nada in his heart at all. Then his youth and confidence became useless.

2. Wallace Stevens Anecdote of the Jar
1. What does the jar in poem symbolize? Why does the speaker place it on top of a hill? The jar here symbolizes a certain perspective on looking at this world. If the perspective of the viewing is creative and unique, it will change the conventional order of the old world. When a new perspective comes out, it will certainly hold attention from the rest.
2. The jar is "round" and "of a port in air," meaning that it has a stately importance. What effect does it have on surroundings when placed on the ground? Maybe the round jar assumes the air of a domineering figure, which helps to form a certain order out of the disordered surrounding.

4.Robert Frost
(1)Fire and Ice
1. What are the symbolic meanings of fire in this poem? Fire symbolizes natural disaster, human passion, as well as war.
2. Why does the speaker say that ice is also great for destruction? Explain what ice stands for here. Ice, oppose to fire, is also a dreadful natural disaster in this world, and ice is always related to indifference, coldness, hatred, and the other negative sentiments of human beings.
3. What is your opinion about fire and ice? Which one is more destructive? Both fire and ice can destroy this beautiful world if they are beyond control of human beings. Therefore we should be open-minded and reduce our prejudice and pride so as to keep this world in peace.
(2)Stopping By Woods On a Snowy Evening
1. In your opinion, what was the reason that made the speaker stop by the woods on a snowy evening? The poet was deeply attracted by the natural beauty of the scene at that very moment.
2. Why did the horse give the harness bell a shake? The horse grew impatient by stopping in the middle of the dark, cold woods at midnight. It was eager to go home.

4. What is the effect of repetition in the last two lines? The refrain-like repetition in the last two lines reminds the reader a simple fact of life: whatever happens, one must go forward in the journey of his or her life.
(3) The Road Not Taken
1. What is the speaker's initial response to the divergence of the two roads? The speaker is at a loss which road he should choose, and he feels sorry that he cannot explore both roads at the same time.
2. Describe the similarities and differences of these two roads. Which one does the speaker take? Two roads are similar except one of them is more ―grassy,‖ which implies that it is less traveled by pe ople. The speaker prefers the less traveled one, because he likes adventure.
3. What might the two roads stand for in the speaker's mind? One road stands for the traditional one and the other is unconventional one and full of challenges and difficulties. To follow other people's footsteps or to open a new road for himself is really not an easy decision for us to make in our lives.
Unit22 Allen Ginsberg
All through the poem, the speaker is addressing to Walt Whitman. Is this poem about Walt Whitman or about modern America?
-----from Allen Ginsberg A Supermarket in California
The author in this poem wanted to emphasis his theme about showing his respect to the passed age and showing his worry about the corrupt in the part of spirit and society. As we all know, Walt Whitman’s poetry was a revolution in American literature can be seen in the first publication of Leaves of Grass in 1855. His poetry is ―free verse‖ in that the lack of meter and rhyme is known as his major technical innovation. Allen Ginsberg had a highly praise on him. As the movement of Beat Generation, Allen Ginsberg used poetry as weapon to express his own understanding of Beat---beatific and beat down.
In this poem, the author wrote the sentence ―shopping for images‖. What he wanted t o buy is the things which were listed by Walt Whitman many years ago. What is in the supermarket? The fresh fruits on the shelf fit the needs of customers and the families. We across a strange statement: shopping for images. How can we shop for images? What he refers to us is still the pure image---―dreaming of your enumerations‖. The things on the shelf are the images of languages in Walt Whitman’s poetry. The language in Walt Whitman’s poetry and the spirit in his poetry are the things which Allen Ginsber g dreamed of. A young America which is full of energy is worth being praised. Allen Ginsberg found the song of himself, the song full of courage and the echo of the real world among Walt Whitman’s work. The meaning of age in this poem is that the nation or the race opens the age which belongs to them and
creates the history of them own. To a certain extend, the age singer equals the national singer. The world is the world which has its features of timing and events. This means that the link of combining the world is not the same as the goods on the shelf but the things which contain the world and individual spirits.
There is a difference between Walt Whitman’s poetry and the successor’s poetry.
The former poetry focused on the point of the combing of the poetry and the real world. It extended the full of fruit of the history through he understood the meaning of lives living on earth.
The latter’s poetry showed that the nature of material has been deprived from the former world. Our moral and spirit has become the goods in the supermarket or the desire in every family in the capitalism nations. Allen Ginsberg recalled the dream of poetry and moral in Walt Whitman’s age.
In this poem, Allen Ginsberg imaged Walt Whitman passing through the death to come to the age which was so called the Golden Age of America. What he can see? How can he do? Would he care about the price and market’s conditions as the American middle-aged women? Allen Ginsberg follows Walt Whitman in the supermarket, but never reached the collection office. They did not like the goods which had been deprived the nature of them but pursuit the things which existed front their eyes and enjoyed the pleasure of nature.

涉江采芙蓉 1、诗歌表达的情感是一种怎样的情感 忧伤之情，痛苦惆怅之情。 2、到底是谁思念谁本诗的抒情主人公是男性还是女性 “所思在远道”——妻子思念丈夫。 “还顾望旧乡，长路漫浩浩”——丈夫思念家乡的妻子。 因此，本文抒发的是分居两地的夫妻相互思念的“忧伤”之情。 注：朱光潜认为是女性，这诗可纳入“闺怨诗”范畴。 3. 诗歌中的抒情主人公表达感情的方式是什么其目的是什么 明确：中国人民很早对于自然就有很深的爱好，对自然的爱与对人的爱往往紧密地联系在一起。古代人送给最亲爱的人的礼物往往不是什么金银珠宝，而是一株花或是一棵芳草，送别时总是折一枝柳条送给远行的人，远行的人为了表示对好朋友的思念，逢到驿使就托带一枝梅花给他。这种生活情调是简朴的，也是美好的。正如王维的《相思》所写：“红豆生南国，春来发几枝。愿君多采撷，此物最相思。”采花折柳，这正是古人传情达意的方式，一方面是传达了对亲朋的关怀、思念等感情，另一方面又寄托了对亲朋的美好祝愿。 1．按要求用课文原句填空。《涉江采芙蓉》中表现抒情主人公形象雅洁，情感纯洁美好的诗句是涉江采芙蓉，兰泽多芳草 2.解C（“所思在远道”指所思念的人在远乡，表现的是游子对故乡亲人的思念之情） 短歌行 1、你认为本诗的情感着眼点在哪一个字请结合诗歌具体分析。 2、明确：忧；忧人生短暂；人才难求；功业未就。 3、梳理诗意，并探究本文运用了哪些艺术手法来表达作者什么样的情感？ 4、明确：①设问开头，破空而来，表达诗人对人生的思考。②运用“朝露”为喻，表达年华易失的 感慨。③以造酒的杜康代酒，形象突出，引人联想。 5、（4）运用典故。表达作者求贤若渴的心情，说明贤才若来投奔于已，必将极尽礼节招待他。 所谓用“典”，是指在诗词中通过各种手法，或引用、或化用、或改用前人的成句、故事，以使诗典雅耐读，富于文采；还可怀古伤今，咏史言志。（补充：“青青子衿，悠悠我心”一句出自《诗经．子衿》，原句为“青青子衿，悠悠我心。纵我不往，子宁不嗣音”，言外之意即“贤士们呀，即使我不去寻访你们，你们怎么就不能主动给我个音讯呢” ） （5）运用了比喻的手法，将贤才喻为明月，意即：天下的贤士们呀，我怎样才能得到你们呢恰如其分地表达渴望贤才来归的心意。而在这还没有实现的情况下，才“忧从中来，不可断绝”。这四句诗仍是写“忧”，从情感上照应第一节。“越陌度阡”四句句意呼应第二节，仍是想象贤才归已时的欢快场面。 （6）以“乌鹊”无枝可依类比在三国鼎立的局面下，有些人才犹豫不决，彷徨不知何去何从。表达出对人才的渴望。言外之意即“我就是你们所要寻求的明主，不要再犹豫徘徊了，赶紧来投奔于我，我助你们实现你们的人生理想，你们助我实现统一大业”。 1、《短歌行》中以_山不厌高，水不厌深喻自己胸怀宽广，招揽人才越多越好。 2．明确：不然，作者的这种忧思，源于内心的焦急。正因为人生短暂，才最渴望招纳贤才，为己所用，建功立业。3．这一句充分吐露了诗人的心志。“山不厌高，海不厌深”化用《管子·形解》的话，用比喻手法说明自己渴望多纳贤才。同时曹操以周公自比，是说自己也有周公那样的胸襟，一定会热切殷勤地接待贤才，使天下的人才都心悦诚服地归顺。 归园田居 1、“归园田居”这个标题能告诉我们哪些信息呢题眼是哪个字 标题明确告诉我们作者要回到田园生活；“归”字是这首诗的题眼 2、从何而归 (l)“尘网”“樊笼”比喻什么 明确：“尘网”“樊笼”比喻官场生活（要特别注意，“羁鸟”“池鱼”是陶渊明自比） (2)为什么要如此比喻表现了诗人怎样的情感 明确：对官场生活的厌恶“误落尘网中，一去三十年”，沉痛悔恨误入仕途的生活上“尘网”一词，足见他对钩心斗角、尔虞我诈的官场的极端厌恶“误”字显出诗人的悔恨之深东晋来年权力 之争剧烈，陶渊明既不愿成为上层统治阶级矛盾斗争的牺牲品，也不愿成为政治野心家 争夺的工具，但是仕途生活却将他紧紧束缚在自己政治斗争的罗网之中，因此他十分痛 苦“一去三十年”，实应为“十三年”用夸大了的数字，说明了时间之长，痛苦之深 3、为何而归 (l)哪一句是点题句明确：“守拙归国田” (2)归西园的目的是什么为什么要“守拙”如何理解 明确：反对机巧圆滑，反对官场生活中的八面玲珑、尔虞我诈怕自己受到官场不良环境的影响而失其本心官场是个是非之地，没有那种当官的本领，很难往上爬这样，一个正直清高的人就会感到精神上很压抑没有自由，所以诗人耙自己比作‘羁鸟”“池鱼”（结合陶渊明辞官原因：不为五斗米折腰的故事） 4、归向哪里 (l)诗人笔下的田园景色有何特点抓住诗中几组意象分析 明确：方宅、草屋、榆柳、桃李、村庄、炊烟、狗吠、鸡鸣 (2)非常普通平常的农村生活场景，在陶渊明笔下为什么显得那么美 明确：诗人捕捉住农村中司空见惯的事物，画出了优美画面，有近有远有声有色，有淡有浓，有活泼有生机．有朴拙自然的趣味而这一切又与诗人在官场上的生活形成了鲜明的对照这里诗人用歌颂田园，无言地批判了官场的倾轧、争斗、混乱、险恶．表明了诗，、追求恬淡生活和平静和谐的心境 1、《归园田居》中表现诗人厌恶官场，回归自然的心情的诗句有_误落尘网中，一去三十年。羁鸟恋旧林，池鱼思故渊。久在樊笼里，复得返自然。 2. (1)．明确：C（“暧暧”和“依依”不可互换） (2)．对诗的赏析，不恰当的一项是D（两句诗意境不同） (3)．“但使愿无违”中“愿”是什么愿望 远离尘世，回归自然的愿望。

7诗三首 课后篇巩固提升 随堂演练 一、课文精读 (一)阅读下面的诗歌,完成第1~2题。 涉江采芙蓉 《古诗十九首》 涉江采芙蓉,兰泽多芳草。 采之欲遗谁?所思在远道。 还顾望旧乡,长路漫浩浩。 同心而离居,忧伤以终老。 1.导学号95114014下面对这首诗的赏析不正确的两项是() A.诗的开头以女子的口吻写起,在荷花盛开的美好季节,在风和日丽中,荡一叶小舟摘几枝可爱的荷花,归去送给各自的心上人。 B.“采之欲遗谁?所思在远道。”长长的吁叹,点明了这女子全部忧思之由来。 C.第五、六两句空间突然转换,出现在画面上的,似乎已不是拈花沉思的女主人公,而是那身在“远道”的丈夫了:“还顾望旧乡,长路漫浩浩。” D.“同心而离居,忧伤以终老。”这无疑是全诗的主旨之语,将一对同心离居的夫妇的痛苦之情准确而又含蓄地表达了出来。 E.芙蓉花在我国古典诗歌中具有高洁、素雅、清幽的特点,诗歌采用比喻的手法,用芙蓉花赠人,能营造素雅的意境,象征纯洁的爱情。 解析D项,“含蓄”的说法不当,诗歌的结尾两句,是直抒胸臆。E项,“采用比喻的手法”错误,“芙蓉”是诗歌中的一个美好意象,诗人用这一意象营造意境,表达情感。 答案DE 2.从诗歌的内容上看,这首诗的前四句和后四句有不连贯的地方,似乎是叙述的角度发生了变化。你是怎样理解这种变化的? 解析对这首诗结构的理解,历来有不同的说法,可以把该诗理解为女子思夫之作,也可以把该诗理解为游子思归之作。正是因为这看似不连贯的结构,才造成了蒙太奇般的审美效果。 参考答案既可以把该诗理解为女子思夫之作,也可以把该诗理解为游子思归之作。前一种理解,诗歌的后半部分为虚写;后一种理解,诗歌的前半部分为虚写。 (二)阅读下面的诗歌,完成第3~4题。 归园田居(其一) 陶渊明 少无适俗韵,性本爱丘山。 误落尘网中,一去三十年。 羁鸟恋旧林,池鱼思故渊。 开荒南野际,守拙归园田。 方宅十余亩,草屋八九间。 榆柳荫后檐,桃李罗堂前。 暧暧远人村,依依墟里烟。 狗吠深巷中,鸡鸣桑树颠。
