Explanation:

- The context of the passage suggests a gathering where people are taking turns reading something aloud. This implies a literary or narrative activity.

- Option 1: Poetry

- Poetry fits into the context as it is often read aloud in such settings. This aligns with the idea of reading without making sense of it, as poetry can sometimes be abstract or complex.

- The answer is 1, poetry.

- Option 2: Music

- Music is more often performed than read, making it an unlikely choice for this context.

- Option 3: Dance

- Dance cannot be read, which does not fit the given context of reading.

- Option 4: Pottery

- Pottery is a visual and tactile art form, not something typically "read."

- The passage describes a literary gathering, and "poetry" is the most appropriate word to fill in the blank.
