Do you still remember your favorite poem from high school or some other important periods in your life?Why is it that decades later it still stands out in your mind?Probably the main reason is that some aspect of that poem resonates (引起共鸣) with you. In the same way, you too as a school leader can touch the hearts of your teachers and students.
Poetry allows us to experience strong spiritual connections to things around us and to the past. The power that poetry has displayed over time and across cultures actually satisfies this common need of the human heart and soul.
As one of the oldest art forms, poetry has successfully connected various parts of humanity (人性) from one generation to another. Referring to poetry, Hillyer makes a simple yet meaningful statement, “With this key mankind unlocked his heart.”
School leaders can find and make use of the value of poetry for themselves, their students and their teachers. Beyond the simple use of poetry, techniques of poetry such as repetitions can be used to take advantage of the power of language to transform communication, create meaning and a culture of care and attention.
Since schools are mainly about people and relationships, school leaders, like poets, are required to inspire and encourage the human heart. The use of poetry?or even of some techniques of poetry?in school leadership not only helps to improve communication, but also serves to meet the human need for inspiration.
【小题1】Who is the passage mainly written for?
? A. Students.? B. Teachers. C. School leaders.? D. Poets.
【小题2】What does the underlined part “this common need” in the second paragraph refer to?
? A. The need to read poetry.
? B. The need to be inspired.
? C. The need to learn about the past.
? D. The need to be connected with other people.
【小题3】 The use of poetry or techniques of poetry in school leadership is in fact to make use of ______.
? A. the power of language
? B. the power of school leaders
? C. people’s preference for poetry
? D. people’s desire for communication
【小题4】What is the purpose of the passage?
? A. To talk about the art of being a school leader.
B. To show readers that poetry is really powerful.
? C. To explain how poetry can be used in our daily life.
? D. To encourage using the power of poetry in school leadership.

?Long ago,poems were recited out loud instead of being written down. Back when the Greeks first started the Olympics, they held poetry contests as well as athletic competitions.
?Now,poetry competitions have been revived (恢复). This year 120,000 high school students competed in the first Poetry Out Loud national recitation contest,performing poems from memory for $100,000 in prizes.
?The first competitions were held in classrooms. The winners went on to school-wide contests, and then they competed in city and state competitions. Finally, the 50 state champions,along with the District of Columbia champion came to Washington D.C.last week for the last showdown. After the 51 champions competed against one another, 12 went on to the finals. Then the field was narrowed to five. The final five had one last chance to “perform” a poem. The overall champ, Jackson Hille, a high school senior from Ohio, won a $20,000 scholarship.
The National Endowment for the Arts and the Poetry Foundation started Poetry Out Loud, because they realized that bearing a poem performed is a different experience from reading it on a page.
? It's not just a matter of saying the words in the right order. It's the tone of voice, the pauses, the gestures and the attitude of the person performing that bring the words to life. “Each time we hear somebody recite a poem, we understand again what we found fresh and interesting about it,” said National Public Radio Broadcaster Scott Simon, master of ceremonies for the finals. Hearing it in a new voice offers something new to the listener.
? Not only do the people hearing poems have a new experience, but memorizing and presenting poems helps the participants (选手) understand those poems in a new way. Another benefit of a competition such as Poetry Out Loud is that the participants learn public-speaking skills that can help them for life.
【小题1】From the first paragraph,we can know ________.
? A.the Greeks were the first to write poems
? B.the Olympics used to start with poem reciting
? C.poems were spread orally in the past
? D.athletes were asked to recite poems before competing
【小题2】 How many rounds of competitions did the champions take before they went to Washington D.C.?
? A.Three.? ?
?B.Four. ?
?C.Five. ?
?D.Six.
【小题3】According to the passage, hearing a poem recited in a new voice can ________.
? A.bring a new life to listeners
? B.help listeners find their interest
? C.make listeners learn the words
? D.offer something new to listeners
【小题4】What influence the beauty of poems?
? A.The word order and the tone of voice.
? B.The attitude of the person performing them.
? C.The tone of voice, the pauses, the gestures and the attitude of the person reciting them.
? D.The pauses and the gestures of the person performing them.
