16、the child to the God?The poem describes the mind of the child who is speaking to the lamb so as to show the gentleness and tenderness of the lamb. The lamb is the symbol of the child to the God. It shows the love of God that he creates the lamb and Jesus is often called the lamb of the God. So the p
17、oet not only appreciates the kindness of the lamb but also praises the mysterious power which can create the lamb. In this poem, God, Jesus and the lamb are combined together.(Reference:上帝创造自然中表达的慈祥;耶稣是上帝的羔羊；温良和自我牺牲精神；上帝彰显的慈祥：对羔羊、对孩子的关爱)2. What does the lamb stand for?Line 20: When you read the word
18、 lamb J always first think: symbol of Jesus Christ (the Lamb of God) As the tradition holds, animals such as lambs were sacrificed to God or gods in general until God offered his Son, Jesus Christ - his lamb - as the final sacrifice for the sins of mankind. In line 20, Blake references a version of
19、Christianity that states that God created Jesus (Protestant version vs. the Catholic doctrine of the Trinity). In any case, you dont need to know all the theology, just that it s a reference to Jesus and an allusion to Christianity. Blake asks whether God, who created Jesus, also created the Tiger.
20、Also, dont forget that The Lamb is the title of another poem by Blake, from the Songs of Innocence; the two poems are often readiitogether.The Ti殳er P501. Why does the poet mention the Lamb? Do you think both the Lamb and the Tiger can illuminate each other?The Tyger is corresponding to The Lamb. Bo
21、th the poems show the poets exploration, understanding and plaint of the mysterious creation. In this poem, the author implies that the Tiger is created by God as well as the Lamb. So either the Tiger or the Lamb is essential to God.I think both the Lamb and the Tiger can illuminate each other. Alth
22、ough the Lamb can represent the kind innocent societyit will be lack of enough motivation to make progress. While the Tiger will cause social misery, unrest or even disruption9 but it can make people release their creativity. So the poet believes that the Tiger is the symbol of strength and courage.
23、 And he also praises its passion, desire and all the lofty beauty.2. What is the symbolic meaning of the tiger? What idea does the poet want to express?The symbol of the Tyger is one of the two central mysteries of the poem (the other being the Tyger9s creator). It is unclear what it exactly symboli
24、zes, but scholars have hypothesized that the Tyger could be inspiration, the divine, artistic creation, history, the sublime (the big, mysterious, powerful and sometimes scary. Read more on this in the HThemes and Quotes“ section), or vision itself. Really, the list is almost infinite. The point is,
25、 the Tyger is important, and Blakes poem barely limits the possibilitiesThe tiger is the embodiment of Gods power in creation: the animal is terrifying in its beauty, strength, complexity and vitality. The poem is divided into six parts. In the first part, the author imagined that he met a terrible
26、tiger on a dark night and was frightened by its awful eyesight. There are creations and creators. How great the creator is that he could create such an awful creation like tiger! In the second part, the author continues to ask, where comes the eyesight like fire, sea or sky? The following two parts,
27、 the author describes the creator as a smith. He creates the tiger. What behind the questions is the frightening and respect of the author to the creator. In the fifth part, the author changes his tone and asks when the stars throw down their spears, why they are not happy? The last part is as same
28、as the first part, the creator is too mysterious to understand.The tiger shows its outstanding energy. Its the vitality which the author thinks highly of. The key sentence of the poem is HDid he who made the Lamb make thee? It challenges the one-track religious views of the 18、century. The view only

32、p o kindness” here should imply the friendship between Robert Burns and his friend that he is now together with.“Cup o kindness is showed in the second and the last section, which are both their reunion occasion.

33、their friendship and memorize their happy childhood and adolescence.After the first cup o kindness，the author starts to recall their joyful life: they has run in the brae, picked up the fine gowans, wandered a long and weary journey, paddled in the stream all the day.

Theme of Man and the Natural World: Wordsworth is the granddaddy of all nature poets, and hes in top form in “I wandered lonely as a Cloud.11 In her journal ent
36、ry about the day in question? Wordsworths sister Dorothy wrote about their surprise at finding so many daffodils in such a strange place, next to a lake and under some trees. Howd those get there?n she wondered, even guessing that maybe the seeds floated across the lake. The event is one of the mino
37、r miracles that nature produces all the time, as anyone who has seen the documentary Planet Earth or the Disney movie Earth knows. Wordsworth nature is full of life and vitality. He appreciates its wildness and unpredictability but he humanizes the landscape and fits it to his own mind. Theme of Hap
38、pinessnI wandered lonely as a Cloud is a poem that just makes you feel good about life. It says that even when you are by yourself and lonely and missing your friends, you can use your imagination to fine new friends in the world around you. As John Milton famously wrote JThe mind is its own place,
39、and in itself, can make heaven of Hell, and a hell of Heaven.11 The speaker of this poem makes a heaven out of a windy day and a bunch of daffodils. His happiness13does not last forever - hes not that unrealistic - but the daffodils give him a little boost of joy whenever he needs it9 like rechargin
40、g his batteries.Theme of SpiritualityThe 19th century Scottish writer Thomas Carlyle coined the phrase nnatural supernaturalism *1 which has been used by later critics to describe how the Romantic poets, and especially Wordsworth, viewed the natural world as a spiritual realm. The idea is that Heave
41、n comes down to earth and is viewed as part of the world. This poem illustrates the principle of natural supernaturalism. The daffodils are like angels and twinkling stars, and the bliss of heaven occurs in speakers imagination. He uses Christian ideas and images to make an ode to nature without any
42、 reference to God.Theme of Memory and the PastHI wandered lonely as a CloudH is almost like a simpler version of HTintern Abbey/1 one of Wordsworth other most famous works. In both poems, the memory of beautiful things serves as a comfort to the speaker even after the experience of viewing them has
43、ended. He can always draw on his imagination to reproduce the joy of the event and to remember the spiritual wisdom that it provided. In the case of I wandered lonely as a Cloud/1 we do not realize just how far in the future the speakers perspective is located until the fourth stanza, when he descri
44、bes just how often the daffodils have comforted him.2. Do you think nature can have healing effect on mind?I think nature can have healing effect on mind, but the precondition is that the nature should be peaceful and earthly. Lets imagine a scene. At the very beginning, we felt a little sad. Then,
45、we place ourselves at a peaceful and clean lake. We sit on the comfortable and green grass. There are several wild flowers on the grass. Some little birds are walking near us with chirp. We can breathe the smell of the earth. When we are watching it glistening in the sunshine, there may be a smile o
46、n our face again. Nobody will be not touched in this condition unless there is something wrong with his mind. It is just like a picture. Or it is just like a clean bracing and ethereal melody. We can close our eyes to listen to it without any distracting thoughts. It always can comfort our hearts, a
47、nd we will not feel that desperate. Every time I feel not happy I will listen to a piece of piano music. That makes me good, all my fidgeting will go away from me. Sometimes I will reflect where the problem is. Peaceful music is just like the nature. Both they can give me a kind of feeling like moth
48、er. Do not be scared at all. Sometimes I suppose if the criminal can live in the nature and experience it, they will not do that evil. In another hand, those artists maybe can not create the works. As the author said, a host of golden daffodils beside the lake, beneath the trees, fluttering and danc
49、ing in the breeze. The memory made him excited and brought his lonely heart happiness. If a writer does not watch any beautiful scenery, I believe he or she cant be a good writer. Peaceful nature is a place people can release themselves and remove the unhappiness. In this circumstance, the writer digs their inspiration.Yes, I think so. Some people may think that our nature has been highly polluted by our human
