49.and

50.easier這是一篇說明文。文章主要從人們寫詩的理由，受到孩子歡迎的童謠詩歌和受到外國人喜愛的唐詩等方面介紹了詩歌。【41題詳解】考查定語從句。句意：人們寫詩有各種各樣的原因。分析可知，“__1___peoplewritepoetry”應是之前名詞reasons的定語從句。先行詞在從句中作原因狀語，應用關系副詞why。故填why。【42題詳解】考查介詞。句意：有些詩歌以一種能給讀者留下深刻印象的方式講述故事或描述某事。inaway，固定結構，意為“用一種方式”。故填in。【43題詳解】考查名詞。句意：有些詩歌以一種能給讀者留下深刻印象的方式講述故事或描述某事。空前為形容詞，所填空應是名詞，且由之前不定冠詞a可知，應是單數形式，所給詞impress，動詞，“給……以印象”，其名詞形式為impression。故填impression。【44題詳解】考查不定代詞。句意：最早用英語寫的一些詩歌是童謠。some…other…,一些；一些，固定結構。故填Other。【45題詳解】考查非謂語。句意：最早用英語寫的一些詩歌是童謠。分析可知，所填動詞應是非謂語形式作后置定語修飾之前名詞,且與poetry之間為被動關系，應用過去分詞形式。故填written。【46題詳解】考查動詞時態。句意：孩子們在很小的時候就學會了這些。分析可知，所填動詞應是本句謂語，由之后的“whentheywereyoung”可知，為一般過去時。故填learned。【47題詳解】考查冠詞。句意：童謠（現在）仍然是一種常見的兒童詩歌。分析可知，type，意為“形式”，可數名詞，應用不定冠詞。故填a。【48題詳解】考查連詞。句意：他們讓小孩子很高興，因為他們有很強的節奏和大量的重復。分析可知，前后句為因果關系，前果后因。故填because。【49題詳解】考查連詞。句意：許多唐詩已被譯成英語，在說英語的人當中很受歡迎。分析可知，空后的內容“_____isquitepopularamongEnglishspeakers.”應與之前的謂語動詞hasbeentranslated為并列謂語，主語為alotofTangpoetry。因此此空應填并列連詞and。故填and。【50題詳解】考查形容詞比較級。句意：它比你想象的要容易，當然值得一試!根據空后的“than”可知，應用比較級形式。故填easier。三、閱讀理解19.
