1402.朗誦

1402.朗誦
========================================
數星期有一段之前上過教育電視的朗誦參加者片段被放在FB、Youtube洗版瘋傳
片段中主角那些在一般人眼中非常誇張的動作、聲調
成為不少人訕笑的對象
其實我也是十多年(還可以剛剛用「十多年」)前代表過學校參加朗誦比賽
當年也需要接受老師有關朗誦技巧的培訓
除了最基本的發音、咬字之外
當然也要求抑揚頓挫、表情、身體動作等等需要配合被朗誦作品的內容
十多年前學到的技巧不知道是千禧年代已經不適用還是怎樣
很難理解朗誦要朗誦得如此大動作、誇張
還要被說只成是藝術形式的表達云云
可能我就是沒有融會藝術形式的表達
導致我當年只能拿區際季軍
未能進一步代表我所身處的區(當年還是全港十九區)出戰新界區的比賽了
(首兩年才可以有資格參戰)

當年的被朗誦作品
'Everyday Things' by Jean Ayer

Millionaires, Presidents � even kings

Can�t get along without everyday things.

Were you president, king or millionaire,

You�d use a comb to comb your hair.

If you wished to be clean�and you would, I hope�

You�d take a bath with water and soap.

And you�d have to eat � if you wanted to eat�

Bread and vegetables, fish and meat;

While your drink for breakfast would probably be

Milk or chocolate, coffee of tea.

You�d have to wear�you could hardly refuse�

Under clothes, outer clothes, stocking and shoes.

If you wished to make a reminding note,

You�d take a pencil out of your coat;

And you couldn�t sign a letter, I think,

With anything better than pen and ink.

If you wanted to read, you�d be sure to look

At newspaper, magazine, or book;

And if it happened that you were ill,

You�d down some oil or choke on a pill.

If you had a cold I can only suppose

You�d use a handkerchief for your nose.

When you wanted to rest your weary head,

Like other folks, you�d hop into bed.

Millionaires, presidents�even kings

Can�t get along without everyday things.
