　　☞ 阅读材料：

　　A type of human life this forest old;

　　All leafy, wither‘d, blooming, teeming, blasted;

　　Bloom that the reign of summer hath outlasted,

　　And early sere, and blight that flaunts in gold;

　　And grass, like sorrow, springing from the mould,

　　Choking the wholesome tree; and verdure wasted,

　　Like peace; and berries, like our bliss, untasted;

　　And thorns, like adverse chances, uncontroll’d.

　　These flowers are joy that ne‘er shall form a wreath;

　　These lilies are unsure affection crown’d
