Dear Abby,
How are you? I’ve got a wonderful news to tell you. I have offered a scholarship at a university in Australia. Lots of students took exams for it, but only a few was chosen and I was one of them. Though, my parents are not happy about it. They are strong against my going there. They think it is too far away that they will not see me all the year and they are afraid of I will feel lonely. They can’t imagine so young a girl live alone. They advise me to study at a local university instead. Then I’ll be able to continue living with them. What can I persuade them to accept the fact which I have grown up?
Best wishes,
Jane

“______1._______ It all depends on your personality,” said British naturalist Richard Mabey. “Personality shapes your view of the season,” he said. “You may see it as a fading away, a packing up(结束), or as a time of packing in another sense –the gathering of resources before a long journey.”
______2._______ About November, he wrote:
No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease
No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees
November!
On the other hand, another English poet John Keats, already sensing he was seriously ill, was inspired by a late September day to pen one of the most famous poems in the English language, To Autumn. ______3._______
According to Richard Mabey, Keats has the biological evidence on his side. _______4._______ For example, just at the moment that Keats's “gathering swallows” (in To Autumn) are departing for Africa, millions of creatures are fleeing from the frozen north like Iceland, Greenland and Russia to winter along the east and south coasts of Britain. People might argue that it is the coloring of the leaves and their eventual fall that make people feel sad about autumn. But no one is sure why trees drop their leaves in the first place. It may be likely to rid the poisonous material trees collect over the summer. _______5._______
A century after Keats, the American poet Loren Eiseley wrote in his journal: “Suppose we saw ourselves burning like maples in a golden autumn. And suppose we could disintegrate(瓦解) like autumn leaves…Would not our attitude towards death be different?”
A. Autumn is not a time of slowing down, but a time of new beginnings and great movements of creatures.
B. He wrote to a friend afterwards that there was something comforting and healing about autumn.
C. Keats thought we should take a negative attitude towards death.
D. Autumn means different to different people.
E. If this is true, perhaps it tells us a little about, for instance, Thomas Hood, the 19th Century English poet.
F. More likely, it is a way of reducing the loss of water, which tree roots find hard to take in from cold soil.
G. The fall of tree leaves is more likely to make people sad.
