Poets use language as a way of expressing their feelings, whether positive ones of love, happiness and hope, or negative feelings like anger and fear. Poems can describe the beauty of nature, a person, a dream or a memorable event. Most people have tried writing poetry at some time, for example at school. For children, it is a good way to explore language and have fun with words as well as to express themselves.But teachers and psychologists have found another use for poetry as a form of therapy to help people with problems. There are benefits for people of all different backgrounds and ages. Writing poetry can help people deal with changes in their lives, death or feelings of sadness, drug or alcohol problems or serious illness. By writing down your feelings, you can learn to understand yourself better and give yourself a voice if you feel you are being ignored. A poem might be a way of telling someone something when you do not feel able to talk about it face to face. And just because people are ill or having difficulties in their lives, it doesnt mean they have lost their sense of humour. Poems written as therapy can be funny too, as laughter is also considered to be very good medicine.Students at a special school in Dudley, in England, read and write poems every day. Some of the poems they write are very good, but their reason for writing is not just to be creative. All of them have problems. Some of them have longterm medical conditions, such as cancer, while others have personality disorders or psychological problems. By writing poems students are growing in selfconfidence. The poems provide a channel through which they can communicate with the world, and express their feelings. They also help them to recognise and explore their problems and to develop a positive attitude to life.But the poems are helping other people, too. The school has collected some of the students poems and published them in a book which is being sold to raise funds for a local hospital. The book has proved very popular, giving students a sense of motivation and achievement.诗的力量读诗和写诗纯粹是个人行为。诗人把语言作为表达自己感受的方式，不管是爱、快乐和希望这些积极的感觉，还是愤怒和恐惧这些消极的感觉。诗能够描绘自然的美、人、梦想或者有纪念意义的事件。大部分人都尝试过一段时间去写诗，比如在学校时。对孩子们来说，这是探索语言并从文字中得到乐趣以及表达自己的一种很好的方式。但是老师和心理学家已经发现诗歌还有另一种用途，即作为一种疗法去帮助一些有问题的人。这对于不同背景和年龄的人都有好处。写诗可以帮助人们应对生命中的一些变化，死亡或悲伤的情感、吸毒、酗酒问题或严重的疾病。通过写下你的感情，你能学着更好地理解自己并且如果你感觉自己正在被忽略可以喊出自己的心声。当你感觉无法面对面谈论某事时，写诗可能就是一个告诉一些人一些事情的途径。而且仅是因为人们生病或者在生活中有困难，并不意味着他们失去了幽默感。作为疗法写下来的诗也会很有趣，因为大笑也被认为是非常好的药物。在英国达德利的一所特殊学校，学生每天都要读诗和写诗。他们的一些诗写得很棒，但是他们写作的原因不只是为了创造性。他们都有问题。有一些有着长期的病史，比如癌症，还有一些人患有人格障碍或心理疾病。学生们通过写诗增强自信心。诗歌给人们提供了跟世人沟通和表达思想感情的渠道。诗也帮助他们去认识和发现自己的问题并且培养出一种对生活的积极态度。不过诗歌也会帮助其他人。学校已收集了部分学生的诗并写在一本书中出版销售，用于为当地一家医院筹集资金。这本书被证明很受欢迎，给了学生们动力和成就感。Poems on the UndergroundAnyone who is addicted to reading bus tickets or cereal packets will understand the appeal of Poems on the Underground. Some years ago, a few acquaintances who lived and worked in London, who used the Tube and loved poetry, decided that it would be pleasant to read a few lines by their favourite poets as they travelled around by Tube, instead of just glancing upwards at the tiresome advertisements. The Underground had a surplus of advertising space on the trains. They suggested filling the blank spaces with poems, for the entertainment of the travelling public.London Underground approved of the idea, and once sponsors had been found to pay the expenses for half the spaces, they agreed to pay for the other half. So, in January 1986, Poems on the Underground was officially launched at Aldwych station, in the centre of London. Many of those who left the morning daylight and the damp streets above, and descended through the ticket barriers to the shabby old Underground platform saw the usual signs TICKETS AND TRAINS, THIS WAY DOWN, CAUTION! DONT CLIMB ONTO THE LINES, STAND CLEAR, DOORS CLOSING assume a special literary significance. There was coffee, doughnuts, and wine too, served on the benches where they would usually sit and wait. When the train with a preview of the first poems arrived, everyone got on and within minutes of its departure, the carriages were merry with a chorus of voices reading verse by Shelley, Burns and of course, by themselves.The poems took on a new life when they were removed from books and placed alongside the adverts. Commuters enjoyed the idea of reading Keats Much have I travelld in the realms of gold on a crowded Central Line train, or trying to learn by heart a sonnet between Hammersmith and Piccadilly. The choice of poems wasnt arbitrary but specially chosen. It catered for all tastes and included living and dead poems from the homeland and from all over the Englishspeaking world, and especially poems which have associations with London.The success of the Poems on the Underground enterprise confirmed that Britain was a nation of poetry lovers. Hundreds of people corresponded with London Underground suggesting poems, or just to say thank you. In January 1989, on the third anniversary after the first poems on the Underground, London Underground promised to donate all the spaces free, to increase the number available (at least one poem in each train carriage), and to pay for the production costs as well. They also update the poems every few months. Posters of the poems decorate the British Council libraries throughout the world, but the best way to view the poems is to see them yourself, on whichever train you choose, in every zone of the network for the price of an underground ticket.地铁上的诗任何沉迷于阅读公交车票或者麦片纸袋的人都会理解地铁上的诗歌的吸引力。几年前，几个在伦敦生活和工作的熟人，他们经常坐地铁并且喜欢诗歌，他们想在坐着地铁旅行的时候能读到自己最喜欢的诗人所写的诗句而不是仅仅抬头浏览枯燥的广告，那将是一件多么惬意的事情。地铁的火车上还有一些剩余的广告空位。他们建议将这些空位用诗歌填满，目的是为了大众旅行时的娱乐休闲。伦敦地铁局同意了这个主意，并且一旦找到支付其中一半费用的赞助商，他们愿意支付另一半的费用。因此，1986年1月，“地铁上的诗”在伦敦市中心奥德维奇车站正式开始。很多人离开上午的晨光和潮湿的街道，穿过检票处走至破旧的地铁站台，这时就会看见常见的标语车票和火车，沿着这条路走下去，小心！不要攀爬铁轨，禁止站立，关门呈现出一种特殊的文学意义。这里有咖啡、油炸圈饼还有葡萄酒，供应在乘客通常等车时坐的长凳上。但作为预展的印有第一批诗歌的车驶过来时，乘客们上车，开车后几分钟内，车厢内满是人们异口同声读诗的欢快的声音，这些诗有雪莱的、彭斯的，当然还有他们自己的。从书本中走出来，同广告放在一起使得这些诗歌焕发了新的生命。乘车上下班的人们喜欢这个主意，挤在拥挤的中心线路火车上读济慈的游历在金色的国度里，或者在汉莫斯密斯与皮卡迪利大街之间努力记住一首十四行诗。这些诗不是随意选择的，而是经过了特别挑选。它迎合了不同的口味，包括人们经常读的和不经常读的诗，有英国的还有来自整个英语世界的，尤其是同伦敦有关的一些诗歌。“地铁上的诗”这一计划的成功证实了英国是一个热爱诗歌的国度。成百上千的人给伦敦地铁局写信推荐诗歌或只是表达谢意。1989年1月，在地铁第一次印上诗歌的第三个周年纪念日，伦敦地铁局承诺所有空位无偿献出，增加可利用空间(至少每个车厢有一首诗)，并且支付其所有产品的费用。每几个月他们就会更新一次诗歌。诗歌的张贴画装饰着全世界的英国国会图书馆，但是要查看这些诗最好的办法就是亲眼看到它们，在你选择乘坐的任何一趟火车上，在城市交通网络的任何一个区内代价就是一张地铁车票。The Golden Age of English PoetryLike China, Britain had a golden age of poetry but it came a thousand years after the time of Li Bai and Du Fu. It was a time of revolution and new ideas in Europe. The English Romantic poets, as they are now known, were very interested in what was happening in the rest of the continent.Wordsworth went to France to support the peoples revolution, while Byron died fighting for the independence of Greece against the Turks.But the Romantic poets were more interested in the individual, and in the power of the imagination than they were in politics. They produced wonderful images to express human emotions and to paint pictures of the natural world. They also got inspiration from the myths of past ages, especially the Greek myths, and from their own experiences of love.Typically, the Romantic poets lived hard and died young. Byron was the most famous of them; he travelled a lot and shocked people with his wild behaviour. Another Romantic poet, Coleridge, was probably a drug addict, and the strange journeys of his mind are reflected in his poems. Wordsworth was the only one who lived to old age. As he grew older he became less interested in political ideas. He went to live in the Lake District, in the north of England, where he wrote the poem I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud.The most brilliant of the Romantics was probably Keats. Although he studied as a surgeon, poetry was his great love. But when he was just 24 he became very ill. He knew he was going to die, and went to Italy to spend his last months in a more pleasant climate. His friend Shelley, (whose wife Mary wrote Frankenstein), went to Italy to meet him and say goodbye, but he arrived too late. Shelley himself did not live much longer. He drowned in a boating accident off the west coast of Italy the next year. In his pocket he had a book of Keats poems.英国诗歌的黄金时代像中国一样，英国也有一个诗歌的黄金时代但是它要比李白和杜甫那个时代晚上一千年。在欧洲，那时是一个革命和新思想的时代。正像现在他们所被认识的那样，英国浪漫主义诗人对发生在大陆其他地方的事情非常感兴趣。华兹华斯去法兰西支持那里人民的革命运动，而拜伦在希腊为摆脱土耳其统治而争取独立的斗争中阵亡。但是浪漫主义诗人对个体更感兴趣，对想象力的兴趣远大于对政治的兴趣。他们产生很多奇思妙想来表达人类的情感和描绘自然界。他们也从远古神话尤其是希腊神话，还有自己的爱情经历中获得灵感。一般地，浪漫主义诗人向来生活艰难，英年早逝。拜伦是他们中最有名的一个；他游历过很多地方并经常以其离经叛道的行为让人们震惊。另外一位浪漫主义诗人柯勒律治可能是个吸毒者，他奇怪的思想历程反映在他的诗中。华兹华斯是唯一一位活得年龄较大的。随着年纪渐长，他对政治理念的兴趣减弱。他去英格兰北部的大湖区居住，在那里他写了我孤独地漫游，像一朵云这首诗。最杰出的浪漫主义诗人可能应属济慈。尽管他学的是外科，诗歌却是他的挚爱。不过在仅有24岁的时候，他病得很重。他知道自己快要死了，就去了意大利以在更加适宜的气候中度过自己最后几个月的时光。他的朋友雪莱(他的妻子玛丽写了弗兰肯斯坦)，去意大利探望他并同他告别，但到得太迟了。雪莱自己不久也去世了。济慈死后的第二年他死于意大利西海岸的一次乘船事故中。在他的口袋里还放着一本济慈的诗集。1The book has proved very popular, giving students a sense of motivation and achievement.
