LONDON ATTRACTIONS

Tomas Transtromer, a Swedish poet won the Nobel Prize in Literature on Thursday. The journalists cheered hearing that Mr. Transtromer had won the prize. Mr. Transtromer, 80, has written more than 15 collections of poetry, many of which have been translated into English and 60 other languages. Critics (评论家) have praised Mr. Transtromer's poems for their accessibility, even in translation, noting his elegant descriptions of long Swedish winters, the rhythm of the seasons and the beauty of nature.

Mr. Transtromer was born in Stockholm in 1931. He studied literature, history, religion and psychology at Stockholm University, graduating in 1956, and worked as a psychologist at a youth prison. In 1990, Mr. Transtromer suffered a stroke(中风) that left him mostly unable to speak, but he eventually began to write again.

On Thursday afternoon, Mr. Transtromer's apartment was filled with journalists from all over the world seeking reaction. Obviously overwhelmed (不知所措), Mr. Transtromer finally appeared, accompanied by his wife, Monica. Speaking on his behalf (代表), she said her husband was most happy that the prize was awarded for poetry. "That you happened to receive it is a great joy and happy surprise, but the fact the prize went to poetry feels good," she said.

There was also a celebration among Swedes, many of whom have read Mr. Transtromer since his first book of poems, 17 Poems, placed him on Sweden's literary map when he was just 23. "To be quite honest, it is a relief because people have been hoping for this for a long time," said Ola Larsmo, a novelist and the president of the Swedish Pen Association. "Some thought the train might have already left the station because he is old and not quite well. It felt great that he was confirmed in this role of national and international poet."

A rainforest is an area  (cover) by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year. Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate.  the forest cover, these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere,  (warm) the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns, potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.

In the past hundred years, humans (begin) destroying rainforests in search of three major resources: land for crops, wood for paper and other products, land for raising farm  (animal). This action affects the environment as a whole. For example, a lot of carbon dioxide in the air comes from burning the rainforests. People  (obvious) have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees,  we will suffer much more than we will benefit.

Rainforests are often called the world's drug store. More than 25% of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests. However, fewer than 1% of rainforest plants have been examined for their  (medicine) value. It is extremely likely  our best chance to cure diseases  (lie) somewhere in the world's shrinking rainforests.

Union is strength no matter when you're facing difficulties or in a dilemma. Cooperation plays an important part in getting you out of trouble.

There was a time when I was too proud that I overlooked my classmate, refusing to work together with them. Therefore, it was no doubt that I was left alone, suffering from loneliness. Unfortunately, a teacher impressed on me the value of cooperation. From then on, I learned to help others and turn to my friends for the help whenever I had difficulty finish a task on my own. Surely cooperation made a great difference. Now I am getting well with my friends.

My experience has teach me that only if we attach great importance with cooperation, can we go beyond ourselves. As the saying go "United, we stand; divided, we fall."
