阅读下列短文,根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。在答题卡标有题号的横线上,写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。(每空一词)
Literature is a word used to describe written as well as spoken material. Generally speaking, it is often used to describe anything from creative imagination, including works of poetry, drama and fiction.
Then why read literature, since it is often imaginary and seems unconnected with real life?
A lot of us read literature for enjoyment and relaxation. It’s always pleasant to read some interesting books in our spare time. In a modern life full of stress, it is our common wish to read some imaginary works and look for relaxation from the stress in life.
Reading literature is more than fun, it also allows us to get knowledge. As a general rule, literature represents a language of a people, and it often helps us know more about the traditions, attitudes and values of the age in which it was written.
Sometimes literature can even offer us new, creative ways to have a better understanding of the world. It introduces us to new worlds of experiences. We enjoy the comedy and the tragedy of poems, stories and plays, and we may even grow through our literary journey with books. At last we may discover meaning in literature by looking at what the writer says and how he or she says it. In some ways, we explore the human condition and study the way they think and feel the way they feel. Literature helps us think clearly and encourages us to open minds.
So we can certainly say literature is of great importance to us. Why not get going with one poem, drama or fiction at once?
Topic | 【1】 should we read literature? |
Explanation | It 【2】 anything from creative imagination. |
Types | It 【3】 poems, drama ,fiction and so on. |
【4】 to read literature | ◇ To get enjoyment and relaxation to forget stress in 【5】 . ◇ To get 【6】 to make us learn about traditions, attitudes and values of the age in which it was written. ◇ To offer people ways to 【7】 better about the world, to enjoy 【8】 of literary, to grow through the literary journey, to discover meaning in literature, and even explore how humans think and feel. ◇ To help us think 【9】 and make us open our minds. |
Suggestion | Literature is 【10】 to us, so we’d better read literature at once. |
