Unit 5 Poem
Reading and thinking
As a literary amateur, Tom was fond of all kinds of literary forms, such as drama, prose, poems full of rhythms and folk stories. So there was a string of versions of literature works in his book shelf. He often created nursery rhymes, whose core centered on lively animals, such as billy goats,bulls,bees and butterflies. They were within children’s comprehension, so they were easy to recite.His imagery of sorrow, grief and good moods attracted civilians and nobles, who often corresponded with him.
Tom’s sister, Jane, a professional botanist, was keen on various plants.At dawn she would appreciate delicate cherry blossoms and dewdrops on clovers. In spring,she would sow seeds, awaiting them to grow up.She was innocent and was always sympathetic towards the poor. So she organized a team,which was made up of ten adults, to oppose racial prejudice in this modern era.All in all,Tom and Jane were successful in their respective fields.

我大脑一片空白,只想离开
这个可怕的房间。
My brain was blank and just wanted to leave this horrible room.
/səˈvɪliən/
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature’s changing course untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
我怎么能够把你来比作夏天?
你不独比它可爱也比它温婉:
狂风把五月宠爱的嫩蕊作践,
夏天出赁的期限又未免太短:
天上的眼睛有时照得太酷烈,
它那炳耀的金颜又常遭掩蔽:
被机缘或无常的天道所摧折,
没有芳艳不终于凋残或消翳;
但是你的长夏永远不会雕落,
也不会损失你这皎洁的红芳,
或死神夸口你在他影里迷离:
只要一天有人类眼睛看得见,
我的诗就长在,并且使你长生。
