Very little is known of Emily Elizabeth Dickinson as the American poet always kept to herself and lived a life of solitude (隐居). She was born on 10th December, 1830 at Amherst, Massachusetts to Edward and Emily Norcross Dickinson. She had an older brother, Austin, and younger sister named Lavinia.
From 1834—1847, Emily Dickinson studied at the Amherst Academy, an academic institution that was co-founded by her grandfather, Samuel Fowler Dickinson. In 1847, she studied at the Hadley Female Seminary (now known as Mount Holyoke College) but returned to Amherst only after a year, and began her own unique life. After returning from the Seminary, Emily withdrew from all social contact and refused to entertain guests. She chose to dress herself only in white and spent most of her time inside her room. She started writing poems at around this time. Her initial forays(最初的尝试) were conventional(有争议的) but later on, she experimented until she developed her own unique style.
The 1860s contributed greatly to Emily Dickinson's writing style and content. The US Civil War broke out in 1861; her closest friends Samuel Bowles moved to Europe for health reasons, and Charles Wadsworth was relocated to San Francisco. In addition, she also had a persistent eye trouble. Although these years were very troublesome for Dickinson, this could also be considered as the most productive period of her life. During this time, Emily Dickinson wrote around 800 poems.

A food delivery man defeated a master from Peking University and won China Central Television's poetry contest on April 4 in 2018. Lei Haiwei kept calm during the final of the Third Season of CCTV's Chinese Poetry Competition on Wednesday night, becoming the champion after defeating Peng Min, a master of literature from China's top university.
Lei, 37, from Shaoyang Hunan, is now working as a food delivery man in Hangzhou Zhejiang. His interest in poetry was inspired by his father, who would write poems down, stick them on the walls of the kitchen and teach him to read them from a young age.
Lei missed the opportunity of going to university due to frequent school transfers when he was growing up. But that didn't diminish his passion for poetry. Since he was too poor to buy books, Lei would memorize poems in bookstores and write them out when he returned home. He used this unique method to accumulate more than 1,000 poems.
Though Lei came to Hangzhou in 2008 and works as a fast food courier, his love for poems hasn't faded. On his busiest work days, the courier has to deliver more than 50 orders a day. Even so, he seized any available moment to recite poems. "For example, I am used to reciting poems when I wait for food at restaurants, and traffic lights on my way to deliver food. Reciting poems not only enriches my knowledge, but also makes my job less boring," the courier said.
In November, 2017 Lei went to Beijing and began recording the TV show after standing out from more than 70, 000 people who signed up for the competition. After winning, Lei returned to Hangzhou and continues his delivery work and the memorizing of poems.
Lei's outstanding performance during the final, and his inspirational story, have amazed Chinese audiences.
"His love of learning is so pure; it moved me to tears," one netizen said. "It always amazes me how some people simply hunger for knowledge," another shared.
5.Why didn't Lei Haiwei have the chance to go to college
A.His family was very poor. B.He was fascinated with poems.
C.He was too busy to study. D.He often changed school.
6.What can the underlined word "diminish" in the third paragraph be replaced by
A.Inspire. B.Increase. C.Reduce. D.Encourage.
7.What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us
A.Lei's work is delivering food for others.
B.Lei's daily life is highly stressed at present.
C.Lei uses any available time to recite poems.
D.Reciting poems improves his knowledge.

A.Interesting. B.Inspiring. C.Fascinating. D.Shocking.

解析：艾米莉·伊丽莎白·狄金森是美国传奇诗人,青少年时代生活单调而平静,接受正规的教育。她一生未婚,在孤独中埋头写诗三十年,留下近2000首诗;生前只是发表过七首,其余的都是她过世后才出版。

2.推理判断题。根据第二段中的"...Emily withdrew from all social contact and refused to entertain guests."以及"…and spent most of her time inside her room."可知,她不和社会接触,拒绝接待客人,大部分的时间待在房间里。换言之,她开始隐居,所以选D项。
3.推理判断题。根据"…and Charles Wadsworth was relocated to San Francisco."中的 was relocated可知,她的朋友查尔斯·沃兹沃思重新到旧金山定居。由此可知,查尔斯·沃兹沃思以前曾在旧金山居住过,所以选C项。
4.细节理解题。根据最后一段中的"Her poems were published by her sister, Lavinia in 1886. During her life, only seven poems were published..."可知, 她生前只发表过七首诗,其他的诗是在她去世后由她的妹妹出版的,所以选A项。
