Reading is an essential part of learning poetry. To read a poem well, we must master reading skills, such as pitch, volume, sound strength, speed, contrast, ups and downs, changes, etc., so that the whole reading can be like a beautiful movement.
Here are three examples to talk about the skills of poetry recitation.
Example 1 "Chunxiao"
This is a metrical poem. When reciting this poem, you should pay attention to pronounce every word clearly and drip out the rhythm of the poem. Each line of verse can be regarded as three pauses: spring sleep/unconsciously/dawn, everywhere/smelling incense/singing birds. Night/rain/sound, flowers fall/know/how much. When reading "Xiao, Bird, Whistle", the pronunciation should be appropriately prolonged, slightly chanting, so that the audience can feel the beauty of the rhyme of the poem.
The first two sentences are what the poet saw when he woke up in the morning. When reciting, he should use a soft and soothing tone and the volume should not be too high. The ending of the word "bird" can rise slightly, which shows that the poet sees a beautiful scene of beautiful spring and flowers. The poet remembered how many flowers had fallen in the garden because of the stormy weather last night. When reading I don't know how many flowers have been folded, you should imagine a garden full of fallen flowers. We can reread the word "fallen flower" and then gradually lower the volume of the word "know how much" to show the poet's regret for the fallen flower.
Example 2 My Confessions
This was written by Comrade Chen Ran after his arrest, and the spy forced him to write a confession. This poem is not only a true portrayal of party member's lofty inner world, but also a solemn verdict on the inevitable demise of the Chiang family dynasty. The whole poem is sincere and full of passion, which fully shows the martyrs' firm revolutionary beliefs and righteous revolutionary integrity. When we recite this poem, we should show the author's heroism and extreme contempt for the enemy, and the tone should be loud and powerful.
In the first section, the two words "Ren" show the strong will of revolutionary martyrs who are not afraid of the enemy's torture. We should read them more carefully: the tone of the word "unnecessary" is firm: "even if the chest is facing a bloody bayonet!" This rhetorical question expresses the emphasis on affirmation, and the word "blood" ends slightly longer and downwards, showing contempt for the cruel slaughter of the enemy.
In the second section, we should read more about the comparison between "people" and "fools who are afraid of death": the ending of Confession should be lengthened, indicating the so-called confession: "What is torture!" Read the tone of rhetorical questions in one sentence.
The third section is the climax of the whole poem. When reading, you should be passionate, showing the heroism of the producers who swear to fight the enemy to the end and the optimism that the revolution will win.
If we can understand the artistic conception of the poem, we can deeply feel the author's indomitable heroism, arouse our feelings corresponding to the content of the poem, and then properly master the stress and pause, and we will be full of emotions and clear rhythm when reading, which will strongly infect the audience.
Example 3 "Sunflower"
I don't know if my face is upturned in the sun during the day-what's the secret? Look, look, let you bow your head at night-so curious? demonstration ...
This is a folk poem. The imagination of this poem is novel and peculiar, which can fully show the intelligent and agile thinking characteristics of children, so it is full of innocent and immature childlike interest.
This poem personifies sunflowers from the beginning. Asking it an interesting question by "I" is not only a question of "I", but also can arouse the small audience's serious thinking. When reciting these two sentences, the speed should not be too fast, so we should pay attention to the natural pause to arouse the thinking of the small audience.
"I don't know/sun/what/secret", the stress of this sentence should fall on "I don't know" and "secret", and the suffixes of "I know" and "what" can be extended appropriately.
The second sentence should emphasize "curiosity" and tone, and the end of the word "strange" should be gradually weakened.
The third sentence can be combined with children's innocence and love to play, with a light tone and proper rotation of the head and eyes.
The last sentence should be in sharp contrast with the third sentence. Speak slowly and gently, and pay attention to the pause, leaving room for association and aftertaste for the small audience.
In short, when reciting poetry, we should pay attention to the distinct rhythm and adopt the corresponding speed according to the basic rhythm of the work. Lightly carry your back lightly, and slowly carry the heavy ones calmly. As far as a poem is concerned, the reading speed is not fixed, but varies according to the needs of expressing the content of the work.

1, overview of review class
The art of reciting has a basic overview. It is a new art. Although it has a long history, it has been interrupted for a long time. It originated from oral recitation and has a history of only a few decades.
2. The difference and connection between reciting and reading aloud.
There are similarities and differences. Because the scope of use is different, the requirements are different. Reciting requires a clear and loud voice and a loud voice to express it. Reading aloud is more demanding than reading aloud. Recitation requires an understanding of the central idea of the work and a strong sense of * * * with the author, which is the premise of language re-creation. Women, on the other hand, are constrained by physiological conditions and demand gentleness.
3. Reciting requirements
Reciting is a vivid language art.
Recitation should have the basic skills of standardizing language. Clear articulation and clear pronunciation are required.
Recitation should be able to reproduce the ideological content of the work, and the inner things should be the same as the work and the author. It must require that the inner video that you think and see can reproduce and reproduce the original scene.
Recitation should be an artistic language close to life, rather than imitating accents blindly.
Reciting also needs aesthetic feeling.
