- No poem should ever be discussed or “analysed”, until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student. Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end, so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.
- All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally, the most telling “interpretation” of it, suggesting tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once. Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on records or on films, is obviously a special reward. But even those aids to teaching cannot replace the student and teacher reading it or, best of all, reciting it.
- I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analysing” it, if there isn’t time for both. I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry. Poetry is “a criticism of life”, and “a heightening of life”. It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”, and it “can save your life”. It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.
- I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. Those who don’t like it should not be forced to communicate this to anyone else. But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.

- C.practise reading it aloud

- What makes you cry？Being moved by a sad movie，waving a loved one off，or getting emotional after splitting up with your partner can all cause tears to roll down our faces.1.______
- When you think about it，shedding tears from your eyes can cause embarrassment or confusion.But it seems to be an automatic reaction when we get sad or upset. 2.______ However，the feeling is the same – your cheeks puff up，your eyes tighten and before you know it，tears are streaming down your face.Some of us may weep a little while others might cry like a baby.
- A study in the UK in 2017 found that women admitted they cry 72 times a year.This was，on average，more than men.Adam Rutherford，lead researcher，says that the result has been pretty much consistent with previous research. 3.______ Are they just more embarrassed about showing their true feelings？The debate continues.
- One place where we experience emotional and tearful outbursts is in the workplace.4.______ Someone might be stressed with a heavy workload.And，as therapist Joanna Cross put it， "crying is often a build-up of frustration and undealt-with situations and it's a bit of a final straw moment." She describes how someone might start weeping when they're just asked to make a cup of tea.Actually，their stress has accumulated to the breaking point.
- But crying in the office or elsewhere can be an effective stress reliever.It can actually make you feel better.5.______ Crying your eyes out shows others how you feel，so perhaps it's a crying shame that more of us，particularly men，don't cry more often.
- A.Then how do we cope with it？
- B.This can be where emotions run high.
- C.People reach their breaking point in different ways.
- D.We all have the power to cry，but is that a good thing？
- E.Maybe it dissolves or clears the negative feelings you've had.
- F.What brings about this reaction differs from person to person.
- G.But does this mean men don’t get as upset or emotional as women?
