His childhood lacked the harm
23、ony(和睦) that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain. In fact, he inherited(继承) excellent taste in art from his family-both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particular
24、ly drama(戏剧) and poetry. Yeats had strong faith in the coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginning. He didnt lose heart, and finally en
25、joyed success in his poetical drama. Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life pro
26、gressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition. He had not enjoyed a major public lift since winning the Nobel Prize in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would probably now be valued as a minor po
27、et, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 75. After Yeats death in 1939, W.H.

Yeats national honor.BIn Indonesian 2-year-old boy who hit the headlines last month due to a 40-a-day cigarette addiction has reportedly cut down to 15-a-day from 40, af
31、ter the child received treatment. Images of a two-year-old boy smoking cigarettes have shocked people in Indonesia. The little boy, Ardi Rizal from Sumatra, is addicted to nicotine and smokes 40 cigarettes a day. His father, Mohammed Rizal, thinks theres no problem with his sons bad habit. He told r
32、eporters that his child looked healthy and that it was the only thing that was important. He went on to explain how Ardi took up smoking when he was 18 months old. That was when he gave his son his first cigarette. Now hes totally hooked; he screams if his father doesnt let him smoke. Ardis story is
33、 part of a worrying trend in Indonesia. It has one of the worst smoking records in the world, with a population of 250 million people.

34、nation.

39、o put a sock in it. He makes his case in a new book, listening for Meaning in a World of Noise. Here he explains himself(using his indoor voice): “Weve become so accustomed to noise, theres almost a deep prejudice against the idea that silence might be beneficial. If you tell someone to be quiet, yo
40、u should like an old man. But its never been more important to find continuing quiet. Silence focuses us, improves our health, and is a key to lasting peace and satisfaction. “We need to excite people about the sounds you start to hear if you merely quiet things down a little.
