Poetry (Tears) by Alfred Tennyson
Stanza (1)
Tears, idle tears, I know not what they mean,
Tears from the depth of some divine despair,
Rise in the heart, and gather to the eyes,
In looking on the happy Autumn-fields,
And thinking of the days that are no more'.
A- Paraphrase the above lines:
-The poet wonders why tears come into our eyes. Perhaps, when
we remember the past and the sad feelings in our heart. The days of
the past won't come again.
B- Extract figures of speech:
Contrast: "happy Autumn-fields'' X tears"

Stanza (2)
'Fresh as the first beam glittering on a sail,
That brings our friends up from the underworld,
Sad as the last which reddens over one
That sinks with all we love below the verge;
So sad, so fresh, the days that are no more

A- Paraphrase the above lines:


-The poet likens the past as the first ray of sun shining on the ship that
carries our friends who come back from death. Also, the past is like the
last ray of sun sinking in the sea taking all the people we love.

B- Extract figures of speech:


Comparison:
The first ray of sun → the coming up ship.
The last ray of sun → the disappearing ship.
Contrast:
The first beam glittering X the last which reddens over one

Visual Image: The Greek myth ‫ االسطورة االغريقية‬when they put the dead
on a ship to Sail to a place in the after world.

16
Stanza (3)
Ah, sad and strange as in dark summer dawns
The earliest pipe of half-awakened birds
To dying ears, when unto dying eyes
The casement slowly grows a glimmering square;
So sad, so strange, the days that are no more.
A- Paraphrase the above lines:
The past is as sad and as strange as the sound of the morning birds
singing to the dead people through the window. The past is sad and
strange.

B- Extract figures of speech:


Contrast:
Birds sing happily to people who are dying.
Comparison:
The strange description of the dawn as "dark" and the birds which are
"half-awakened.
Stanza (4)
'Dear as remembered kisses after death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feigned
On lips that are for others; deep as love,
Deep as first love, and wild with all regret;
O Death in life, the days that are no more' .

A- Paraphrase the above lines:


The past is as precious as the kisses we remember having received from
a person who is now dead. The past is as sweet as the kisses we
imagine ourselves giving to a lover who is out of our reach. The past is
as deep as our first love and is as wild with all its sorrow. To think of the
past is to feel the pain of death.
B- Extract figures of speech:
Repetition:
The poet repeats this line in each stanza:
"The days that are no more"
To emphasis the idea that all he is talking about the past.

b- Many students suffer from stress before exams.

B) Language Functions (6 Marks)


2-Write a dialogue of at least SEX 6 exchanges on the following

C) Reading Comprehension (7 Marks)


Read the following passage and answer the questions: (7 Marks)
Until recently, saolas remained one of Earth's best-kept
secrets. Upon discovering this animal in the wild, scientists just as
quickly recognized this unique species as endangered. Immediate
steps are being taken, in the form of establishing national parks, to
ensure the survival of the species. Villagers in Vietnam and Laos
have spotted saolas only in rare occasions. Although saolas
physically resemble miniature antelopes, DNA testing confirmed
they are separate species, previously unknown to mankind.
Biologically, saolas are related to cows and bisons. Their
name means “spinning wheel posts," referring to the animals’ long
horns that sweep back over the neck. Their most distinguishing
feature, aside from the horns, are massive scent glands in their
cheeks. Saolas mark their territory with musk from these glands.
Scientists are uncertain exactly how many of the animals exist

18
today. Nearly twenty years ago, an adult female was captured and
sent to a zoo in Laos. The saola stood about waist-high with 13-inch
horns.
This interesting mammal appears to have little fear of humans
and was observed to be approachable in zoo setting. Their reaction
to dogs, however, gives a clue as to possible predators.
Unfortunately, observations of saolas have been limited, as those
captured have died shortly thereafter. Causes of each death have
not been fully determined, although at least two have succumbed to
infection.
A) Answer the following questions:
1-What are saolas reactions showed?
……………………………………………………………………………..
2-How can you describe the scientists' knowledge about saolas?
……………………………………………………………………………..
3-What do scientists do to protect the saolas?
……………………………………………………………………………..
4-Find synonyms from the passage for each of the following words:
a. evidence ……………….. b. enormous …………………

B) Choose the best answer from a, b, c or d in the following


sentences:
5- Saolas always have ........... smell.
a. bad b. stingy c. nasty d. good
6- According to the passage, saolas are ..........
