Read and listen to these poems. Which of the qualities in the grid in 2 do they have? 3 1/14 1/15 1/16 queer: seltsam harness bells: Glöckchen am Zaumzeug sweep of wind: Streichen des Windes downy: flaumig-zart flake: (Schnee-)Flocke Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow. My little horse must think it queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year. He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake. The only other sound’s the sweep Of easy wind and downy flake. The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep. Robert Frost Ten Things Your Parents Will Never Say to You Let’s forget dinner tonight, we’ll eat ice-cream instead. Goodnight children, I’m off to bed, stay up as late as you want. No homework tonight. I’m putting all homework in the fireplace immediately. Children, don’t be so quiet. Start yelling, turn the TV up, start arguing. NOW! Yes, of course you can have 21 of your friends come over to stay on Saturday night. No, don’t listen to the dentist. Lollies and biscuits are good for your teeth. Yes, that SuperdoopaComputerGame is too expensive, but let’s buy it anyway. What’s that? You broke the kitchen window. Good boy! Can someone go to the shop for a paper? Here’s $100, keep the change. Yes, I know today is Monday, but let’s stay home from school anyway. Steven Herrick to live up to one’s potential: seinen Möglichkeiten gerecht werden to relate well to sb.: sich mit jmdm. verbunden fühlen to volunteer: etw. freiwillig machen to strive: bestrebt sein to grow enriched: (geistig) bereichert werden eraser (Æ): Radiergummi to yell: brüllen to argue: sich streiten Today Today I will not live up to my potential. Today I will not relate well to my peer group. Today I will not contribute in class. I will not volunteer one thing. Today I will not strive to do better. Today I will not achieve or adjust or grow enriched or get involved. I will not put up my hand even if the teacher is wrong and I can prove it. Today I might eat the eraser off my pencil. I’ll look at the clouds. I’ll be late. I don’t think I’ll wash. I need a rest. Jean Little 111 6 Extensive unit 6: Poetry alive Nur zu Prüfzwecken – Eigentum des Verlags öbv
