B．Schoolteachers.C．Schoolleaders. D．Poets.答案：C細節理解題。根據第一段最后一句的“youtooasaschoolleader”可知，本文主要是寫給學校領導的。2．Accordingtothepassage,somepoemsareunforgettablemainlybecause________.A．theyareeasytounderstandB．theyusuallytelltruestoriesC．theycaninspirepeople'simaginationD．theycantouchpeople'shearts答案：D推理判斷題。根據第一段的后兩句話可知，有些詩之所以讓人難忘是因為它們的某些方面能夠引起人們的共鳴，同樣，學校領導也可以觸動自己的職員和學生的心靈。由此可知其主要原因是這些詩歌可能觸動人們的心靈。3．Theunderlinedpart“thismonneed”inthesecondparagraphrefersto________.A．theneedtoreadpoetryB．theneedtobeinspiredC．theneedtolearnaboutthepastD．theneedtobeconnectedwithotherpeople答案：B推理判斷題。根據第二段第二句的“...itcaninspirewhateverandwhomeverittouches.”以及文章末句中的“...servestomeetthehumanneedforinspiration.”可知，這種共同的需要是指inspiration。BTheStyleInvitationalisahumor/wordplaycontest,throughwhichweseektobringavarietyofcleverhumoreveryweektothereadersofTheWashingtonPost.Whileourultimategoalistogetyoutowritegreatstuffforusforlessthanpeanuts,wedoaimtojudgethecontestasfairlyandcarefullyaswereasonablycan.Thisweekwe'renotfollowingeveryoneofthepoem'smanyrules—thereisonlyoneruleforthecontest.Thepoemmustbeaboutaspecificpersonandmustincludeatleastsomepartofhisname.WinnergetstheInkin'Memorial($12),theLincolnstatuebobbleheadthatistheofficialStyleInvitationaltrophy(獎品).Secondplacewinsasouvenirsnowcastle($8)fromBrussels,featuringalittlestatuethatseemstobeproducingafountainofsnowanddonatedbyContinualSnowGlobeDonorCherylDavis.Otherrunners-upwintheirchoiceofaLoserMug($6)orthegreatlydesired“WholeFools”GrosseryBag($4)．E-mailentriestolosers@washpost.or,ifyouwereborninthe20thcentury,faxto202-334-4312.DeadlineisMonday,June22;resultspublishedJuly12(onlineJuly10).Nomorethan25entriesperentrantpercontest.Include“Week1076”inyoure-mailsubjectlineoritmightbeignoredasspam(垃圾郵件).Includeyourrealname，postaladdressandphonenumberwithyourentry.Seecontestrulesandguidelinesatwapo.st/InvRules.YoucanjointhelivelyStyleInvitationalDevoteesgrouponFacebookato
