A
We considered a list of the best American books, but we’d need a whole issue to do them justice. Here are four that helped define the national character. All from a century or so ago, they still entertain, teach, and inspire:
Fiction
Moby Dick by Herman Melville
First published in 1851, the adventure stories of Captain Ahab and his monomaniacal (狂热的) pursuit of the white whale draws us into a universe full of fascinating characters and stories.
Poetry
Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman
When Whitman published Leaves of Grass in 1855, he wanted to define the American experience —sing of the new country in a new voice, reflecting the great changes in the American literary world that had taken place during his lifetime.
Poems by Emily Dickinson
An enthusiastic poet whose works have had
considerable influence on modern poetry, Dickinson’s frequent use of dashes, sporadic （零星的） capitalization of nouns, and unconventional metaphors have contributed to her reputation as one of the most innovative (革新的) poets of the 19th-century American literature.
The Song of Hiawatha by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
First published in 1855, this is Longfellow’s most popular and most recognized poem, the heroic life and death of a magic American Indian, sent by the Great Spirit to guide the nations in the ways of peace.
1. Walt Whitman wrote Leaves of Grass in order to
______.
A. praise the American and show the great changes in the American literary world during his lifetime

D. Of the four books, Moby Dick was published last.

Robert Browning was born in Camberwell, England on May 7, 1812. He preferred to be educated by private tutors or by teaching himself through reading, and he mastered Latin, Greek and French by the time he was fourteen.
In 1833, Browning published his first volume, titled Pauline: A Fragment of Confession. His next effort, Paracelsus (1835), stimulated（促进） the relationship with fellow poets William Wordsworth and Thomas Carlyle.
During that time he also saw some of his shorter poems published in the Monthly Repository. In the 1840s, Browning attempted writing drama and had several produced for the stage, but never achieved much status as a playwright （剧作家）.
Browning began exchanging letters with the poet Elizabeth Barrett after reading her book Poems. In May of 1845 he visited her, and four months later the two were married secretly, because of Barrett’s father’ｓ disapproval. They moved to Florence and in 1849, their son Robert Wiedeman Barrett Browning was born and Browning published Collected Poems. Madly in love with and devoted to Elizabeth, he dedicated his next collection, Men and Women, to her. The family lived quietly in Italy until Elizabeth died in 1861, when Browning and his son moved back to England. Oxford University and the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, awarded Browning honourary degrees in the early 1880s, around the same time the Browning Society was established. He died on December 12, 1889, in Venice, Italy.

Canadian writer Margaret Atwood has won the 2008 Prince of Asturias Award for Literature, the jury said Wednesday in Oviedo, northern Spain.
“We decided to present the award to Margaret Atwood for her outstanding literary work that has explored different genres(体裁) with acuteness（尖锐） and irony(讽刺), and because she cleverly assumes the classic tradition, defends women’s dignity and denounces (谴责) social unfairness,” the jury said.
The poet, novelist and literary critic was born in 1939 in Ottawa. She received international recognition with her novel The Edible Woman, followed by Surfacing, Lady Oracle, Life Before Man, Cat’s Eye and The Robber Bride.
Atwood is considered to be the greatest living Canadian writer and one of the most outstanding voices in the current scene. She offers in her novels a politically committed, critical view of the world and contemporary (当代的) society. The plot of her novels usually focuses on the figure of women.
The literature award attracted 32 candidates （候选人） from 24 countries this year. It is one of the eight that the Prince of Asturias Foundation gives out yearly since 1981. Other categories include scientific research, sports, arts and humanities.

At least 5.59 million students will graduate from colleges in 2008, 13 percent more than last year, the Ministry of Education has said. They face great pressure in the job market as about 700,000 graduates, who could not find work last year, will compete with them for employment.
About 20,000 graduates have signed up to work in the countryside, in fields such as education, agriculture and poverty alleviation（扶贫）.

College graduates are encouraged to work in western and rural areas where many jobs are available, Ministry of Education spokesman Wang Xuming said. Those who have worked in rural areas for two years enjoy favourable treatment in recruitment (招募) for government organs （机构） and state enterprises （国营企业）, and get bonus points if they take the civil service exams. “We encourage college graduates to start their own business, too, and get preferential treatment,” said Wang Yadong, deputy director of the training and employment department of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security. Such graduates enjoy a 20 percent income tax cut for start-ups, and the government offers small loans to them to start a business， too.
