Unit 4 Exploring literature Reading (I) The wonder of literature 伟大的文学只不过是在最大程度上承载意义的语言 Do you know some TV programs about literature? Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. 青春不是年华，而是心境;青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，恢宏的想象，炙热的恋情;青春是生命的深泉在涌流。 Literature genre: 生查子·元夕 [ 宋 ] 欧阳修 去年元夜时，花市灯如昼。 月上柳梢头，人约黄昏后。 今年元夜时，月与灯依旧。 不见去年人，泪湿春衫袖。 poetry Literature genres: PORTIA A pound of that poor merchant's flesh is yours: the court awards it. SHYLOCK Fair and honest judge! PORTIA You can cut a pond of flesh from his chest. But not a drop of blood is allowed.

GRATIANO O learned judge! a learned judge! drama Literature genres: I hold a burial when you die today, But there’s no telling when I pass away.

The end of spring makes flowers fall one by one, It’s also the time when beauty meets its doom. Once beauty is carried to its very tomb, Both beauty and flowers perish known to none. 尔今死去侬收葬，未卜侬身何日丧？ 侬今葬花人笑痴，他年葬侬知是谁？ 试看春残花渐落，便是红颜老死时。 一朝春尽红颜老，花落人亡两不知！ fiction Literature genres: non-fiction Biography Autobiography My meaning simply is, that whatever I have tried to do in life, I have tried with all my heart to do well; that whatever I have devoted myself to, I have devoted myself to completely; that in great aims and in small, I have always been thoroughly in earnest. ——David Copperfield, by Charles Dickens You ca
