DAY3 Who was Shakespeare? part3

Advocates for de Vere argue that his aristocratic background and travel throughout Italy in 1575 make him a likely candidate. However, de Vere died in 1604, and many of the greatest Shakespearean plays, including King Lear and The Tempest, appeared after this date. Also there is no convincing explanation as to why de Vere might prefer to write using William Shakespeare as his nom de plume.
As with de Vere theory, a major flaw to the Christopher Marlowe theory is the timing of his death. Many historians believe that Marlowe was killed in a fight in a London pub in 1593. Hoever, conspiracy-minded Marlowe experts argue that this was a cover-up and that he was secretly sent to Europe to work as a spy for Elizabeth I. Skeptics suggest that Marlowe continued to write, but used William Shakespeare's name to enable him to get his work published in England.
Today, the majority of Shakespearean scholars believe that, in spite of his humble beginings, the man from Stratford-upon-Avon was the true author of the literary greats. They argue that Shakespeare's lack of formal university education does not mean he could not have produced works of such genius. Until enough evidence is collected to firmly support any argument , debate surrounding who the Bard of Stratford really was continues.



1. advocate (n) a person who supports or suggests an idea, development or way of doing something
擁護者.提倡者

2. aristocratic (a) a class of people who hold high social rank

3. convincing (a) able to make you believe that something is true or right

4. nom de plume (法語n) a pen name

5. flaw (n) a fault, mistake or weakness, especially one that happens while something is being planned or made, or which causes something not to be perfect
瑕疵.缺陷

6. conspiracy (n) when people secretly plan together to do something bad or illegal

8. Bard (n) an old-fashioned way of referring to a poet or staryteller

DAY2 Who was Shakespere? part2

This lack of historical data has caused some literary experts to question whether William Shakespere really wrote the works attributed to him. Skeptics cite a number of arguments to support their belief that Shakespere, the playwright, was really someone else. First fourteen plays have scenes that take place in Italy and demonstrate a detailed knowledge of Italian society and politics. However, there is no record of Shakespere's ever traveling to Italy. Skeptics also argue that the level of vocabulary and languageused in Shakespere's works reflects the writings of a highly educated person with a good understanding of law, politics, and history. Yet there is no record of Shakespere's ever attending a university.
If William Shakespere did not write the great plays and sonnets, then who did? The two most plausible candidates are Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford, a contemporary poet and friend of Queen Elizabeth I, and Christopher Marlowe, also born in 1564, a Cambridge garduate, playwright, and---allegedly---Elizabethan spy.



1. skeptic (n) a person who doubts the truth or value of an idea or belief
懷疑論者

2. cite (v) to mention something as proof for a theory or as a reason why something has happened, or to speak or write words taken from a particular writer or written work
舉出

3. demonstrate (v) to show something and explain how it works
顯示

4. plausible (a) seeming likely to be true, or able to be believed
貌似有理的

5. earl (n) a British man of high social rank, between a marquis and a viscount
伯爵

6. contemporary (n) belonging to the same or a stated period in the past
當代的

7. allegedly (adv) to state that someone has done something illegal or wrong without giving proof
據傳說地

DAY1 Who was Shakespeare?part1

William Shakespeare is widely regarded as the greatest English language playwright. He was a literary genius whose works are still read and performed all over the world. Shakespeare, the man, is something of an enigma, though, as very little is known about him. We do know that a William Shakespeare was baptized on April 26, 1564, the third of eight children of John and Mary Shakespeare. He lived in the town of Stratford-upon-Avon in England and when he was eighteen, he married a twenty-six-year-old woman named Anne Hathaway. They had three children, including one set of twins. For much of his life, he was employed as an actor in London, and he died in 1616, at the age of fifty-two.
Beyond those basic facts, little else is known about the life of Shakespeare. Even his birthday, April 23, is speculative and is based on the assumption that baptisms at that time took place three days after a baby's birth. In total, 154 sonnets and 37 plays, which are grouped into comedies, targedies and histories, are attributed to William Shakespeare. However, not one original manuscript has survived; the plays and poems we know today come from a collection known as the First Folio, published in 1623 after Shakespeare's death, the only portrait of him accepted as authentic appears on the title page of the First Folio.

2. baptize (v) a Christian ceremony in which a person has water poured on their head, or is covered briefly in water, in order to show that they have become a member of the Christian Church

4. assumption (n) something that you accept as true without question or proof

5. baptism (n) 浸禮.洗禮

6. sonnet (n) a poem that has 14 lines and a particular pattern of rhyme

7. manuscript (n) the original copy of a book or article before it is printed

8. folio (n) a book made of paper of a large size, especially one of the earliest books printed in Europe

Day1-one of my favorite song

When i first time saw this MV ,it was really touch my heart. This mv is really heart-stirring and the song is also good to listen. I like this kind of soft rock but i guess maybe the main reason is about "September".

the follow is some introduction of this song's background.

A lot of people are going to view that song as a reflection on 9/11, though that was not my intention in writing it. 很多人看了這隻MV認為是反省911事件,雖然這不是我寫這首歌的本意 For me, September is the month my father died.對我來說九月是我爸爸過世的月份 People's lives tend to go in cycles: the best times and the worst times of their lives.人們的生活像是走過一個循環:在他們的生命中最美好的時光和最壞的時光 And September always ends up being the worst time for me. 而九月對我來說總是壞時光 For some reason problems always keep cropping up for me in September.由於某些理由,麻煩事總是不斷會在九月橫生枝節的找上我 It's a heavy month這是個沉重的月份
FROM:(an Article in an Acoustic Guitar Magazine)以上是我大致上的翻譯.有問題再跟我說

主唱Billie Joe 的父親在他10歲那年的九月,死於癌症 . 他寫這首歌的動機除了父親的死,大多數人還是認為跟911有關


the follow is the background of this MV

Wake Me Up When September Ends 源於一個發生在美國的真實故事。　　
Evan和Jamie是一對情侶，和所有的情侶一樣，他們相愛著，幸福的生活著，有自己將來的夢想。但是有一天戰爭打響了，Evan被美國徵兵去伊拉克。Evan是那種有著自己理想的男生，他的理想卻在殘酷的戰爭面前顯得是那樣的蒼白無力。彌漫的硝煙，無情的戰火，戰場上只有人與人的屠殺。不幸的事終於發生了，在一次街道的戰鬥中，美軍遭到頑強的抵抗，Evan中彈身亡。　　在伊拉克的土地上他不僅僅放棄的自己的未來，而且留下了自己的生命。　　沒過多久，遠在美國的Jamie聽到了噩耗，失聲痛哭，她在墓地看望他的時嘴裏還喃喃的說："I love you so much … How can you do this? I'm never gonna leave you."

God just like that上帝也不過如此吧
people, people get old and all things change and situations are changing ,but I want is just I want this moment right now this day人們，人們總有一天會變老，事物在變，情況也在改變，但是我只是希望... 我只是希望此時此刻
my feelings for you the way you look right nowwhen I look at you我對你的感覺,當我看你的時候,你注視我的樣子
I just want this last forever you know你知道我只是希望這種感覺能一直持續下去
