writer, was born in dublin on june 13,1865. his childhood lacked the harmony (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 familyboth his father and his brother were painters. but he finally settled on literature, particularly 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 enjoyed success in his poetical drama.compared with his dramatic works, yeatss 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 progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.he had not enjoyed a major public life 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 poet, 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 yeatss death in 1939, wh. auden wrote, among others, the following lines：earth，receive an honoured guest：william yeats is laid to rest.let the irish vessel (船) lieemptied of its poetry.本文介绍了爱尔兰著名作家威廉巴特勒叶慈，他在19世纪90年代成立了爱尔兰国家剧院，他以诗体戏剧及诗歌闻名，于1923年获得了诺贝尔奖。5which of the following can describe yeatss family?ait filled yeatss childhood with laughter.bit was shocked

to mix the physical with the digital, providing 24hour services which can be used through many different ways. it is important to enable us to reach more people, more effectively.”the digital library will, he says, be as important as the physical one, allowing the distant use of the services, making sure that it is never closed to the public.even before the lob is complete, the public has been able to go online to visit the virtual(虚拟的)lob, designed by baden, the birmingham virtual worlds specialists. not only have the public been able to learn about the lob, but the virtual one has also enabled those working on the lob to understand the building and how it will work before it even opens.two other small birminghambased digital companies are also working on the lob projects. substrat, a digital design company, is developing what it calls an example of an “enlarged reality” project. it is about the use of an exciting smart phone, an important part of the lob which is in the early stages of development. and the peoples archice is an online library of historical figures of the city being built up by a digital content company in cahoots, in which users will be encouraged to add to and comment on the material.gambles says: “technology will enable us to make the librarys content and services open to citizens as never
