The new collection was published in April, just days after the poet received a lifesaving heart transplant (移植) after about a decade of living with a weakening heart condition.Young, whose work is often frank and rich in twisted humor, tells NPRs Renee Montagne that as he recovers from his operation, hes also slowly returning to his everyday writing habits.“Im getting back to it，” Young says, “not with the sort of concentration or the sort of flame that I look forward to in the future, but I am blackening some pages.”And on those blackened pages youll find poems like “How Grasp Green”， which carries themes of springtime and rebirth. Its one of the first poems Young has written since his transplant.Its easy to spot clues (线索) to Youngs awful health situation in the lines of his poetry.Fall Highers “Vintage” opens with “Because I will die soon, I fall asleep, during the lecture on the ongoing emergency.” And the poem “The Rhythms Pronounce Themselves Then Vanish” published in The New Yorker in February opens with the CT scan that reveals Youngs heart condition.Hearts tend to come up a lot in poetry, and thats especially true of Youngs work, which has clearly been influenced by the troubles of his own heart.“A lot of times, its not just a metaphor (暗喻)，” Young says. “For me, its an actual concern because Ive been living with this disease for over 10 years. My father died of heart problems when he was 49, so its been a sort of shadowy concern for me through my whole life.”But Youngs poems also deal with more abstract matters of the heart. He wrote Fall Highers “Late Valentine” for his wife. “Weve been married since late November and most of it has been spent in the hospital，” Young talks of his marriage to poet Laurie Saurborn Young, who says “Later Valentine is very sweet.”His work also touches on themes of randomness and fate two factors that contributed to him getting a second chance in the form of transplanting a new heart from a 22yearold student. “I just feel enormous gratitude，” he talks of his donor (捐献者). “He gave me a heart so Im still alive . Im sure Im going to think of this person for the rest of my life.”1We can learn from the text that Young _.Awas born with heart diseaseBreceived a heart transplant in FebruaryCmarried a female poet after he wrote “Late Valentine”Dwrote a poem for his wife in his collection解析：选D推理判断题。根据第九段的“He wrote Fall Highers Late Valentine for his wife.”可知，诗人Dean Young在他的诗集中给他的妻子写了一首诗。2What does the writer try to say in Paragraph 3?AThe writer had less enthusiasm than before, and he was disappointed.BThe writer expected some bright future, but he was disappointed.CThe writer devoted more time to poems, so he grasped a good chance.DThe writer wrote poems with less enthusiasm, so he quitted for a while.解析：选A段落大意题。从本段的“not with the sort of .blackening some pages”可知，作者是想说诗人Dean Young患有心脏病，因此对生活的热情有所降低，充满了失望。3Which of the following statements is TRUE?A“How Grasp Green” is the first poem in Fall Higher.BYoung began all his poems with his illness.CYoungs father died when Young was 49 years old.DYoungs health situation is mentioned in his poetry.解析：选D细节理解题。从第五段“Its easy to spot clues (线索) to Youngs awful health situation in the lines of his poetry.”可看出D项正确。4When talking about his present life, Young seems to be _.AgratefulBpessimisticCguilty Dconsiderate解析：选A推理判断题。从文章最后一段的“I just feel enormous gratitude， he talks of his donor (捐献者) .”可知，诗人Dean Young怀有一颗感恩的心。.语法填空There are lots of experiences in our life.
