In a biography.B Eugene ONeill, who was born in 1888, in New York, was a leading American drama writer and the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1936. His father was a successful touring actor. Because of that, Eugen
8、e spent his early childhood in hotels, on trains, and backstage. Although later in his life he grew to hate his father for not giving him security in his early years and a loving and comfortable family, he had the theater in his blood. As a student, ONeill went to boarding schools but spent the summ
9、ers in a moderate house his family owned. He left Princeton University in 1907, only about one year after he entered it, to start what he later called his real education in life experience. At the age of 24, he was hired as a reporter and poetry column writer for the New London Telegraph, where he w
10、orked for only a few months. ONeill didnt cut a figure in playwriting until the summer of 1916, when he was in a peaceful village of Provincetown, Massachusetts, where some young writers and artists had founded an experimental theater. Before that, he had written awkward melodramas (情节剧) that were h
11、ardly accepted by the mainstream of American theater. While ONeill was only one of those whose plays were produced by the theater, he led the group to success because of his contribution within the next few years. Between 1916 and 1920, the theater produced all of ONeills one-act sea plays. By the t
12、ime his first full-length play, Beyond the Horizon, was produced on Broadway on February 2, 1920, at the Morosco Theater, the young playwright already had a small reputation. Theater critics spoke highly of Beyond the Horizon for its tragic realism. The play brought ONeill more public attention, as
13、well as his first Pulitzer Prize, apart from which he won another three for Anna Christie, Strange Interlude, and Long Days Journey Into Night.

17、hnologically, the 20-year jump from 2015 to 2035 will be huge. Back in 1995 we were in the early days of the Internet, we worked in small rooms and our computers were heavy and powered by Windows 95. There were no touch screen phones or flat screen TVs; people laughed at the idea of reading electron
18、ic books. So, what will our world really be like in 2035? What will the future jobs and technology be like? The world in 2035 will probably be much like it is today, but smarter and more automatic. We can see the future of our work first. Taxi drivers will be replaced by self-driving Uber cars and r
19、eceptionists will be replaced by robots. Doctors can use vast medical databases and travel agents will be wiped out by trip-planning, flight-booking web services. Even writers are threatened by companies such as Narrative Science, which currently uses AI to create sports reports and financial update
20、s. Obviously, there will also be new jobs created: the computer engineer who fixes the self-driving Uber taxis, programmers, space tour guides and vertical (垂直的) farmers. Technology will continue to disrupt (扰乱) businesses and get rid of jobs, creating new professions we cant yet envisage now.Those
21、of us who work probably wont do so in a traditional office either. Were already seeing a shift in the definition of work. Its now a task you perform, not a place you go to. Productivity is no longer measured by sitting at a desk. Theres no nine to five. No job for life. The biggest advantage of work
22、ing from home is that you save a lot of time commuting back and forth to work. You can spend extra time with your children or spouse and read the newspaper instead of sitting in traffic. Of course, advanced technology will ensure that most of us can work from home.8. Whats the function of the questi

25、aces matter to the world. They range from the 1960s Nubian campaign to safeguard Ancient Egyptian monuments from the waters of the Aswan Dam to the removal in 2018 of the Belize Barrier Reef from the List of World Heritage in Danger. Conservation is the core purpose of the World Heritage Convention
26、and it may also be its biggest challenge. The following example shows how successes at specific sites now serve as models for conservation and sustainable development. A year after Vienna was included on the World Heritage List in 2001, the World Heritage Committee(WHC) expressed concerns about the
27、architectural solutions and height of four planned towers of the Wien-Mitte project. This development project, close to the Historic Centre of Vienna in the sites buffer zone, the one that lies between two or more other areas, affected the urban scale(规模) and visual effects in and around the propert
