16、e of the most widely read and respected poets in history.And this year is the 110th birthday of Pablo Neruda(1904-1973).Born with the name Neftali Ricardo Reyes Basolto,he was a tall,shy and lonely boy.He loved to read and started to write poetry when he was ten.The American poet Walt Whitman,whose
17、framed picture Neruda later kept on his table,became a major influence on his work.However,his father did not like the idea of having a poet for a son and tried to discourage him from writing.To cover up the publication of his first poem,he took the pen name Pablo Neruda.In 1924 Neruda gained fame w

19、.3 10Neruda loved the sea which he saw as creative,destructive and forever moving.He found inspiration in the power and freedom of the waves and the seabirds on the coast.“I need the sea because it teaches me,”he wrote.“I move in the university of the waves.”He loved how the sea forever renewed itse

23、 at Cornell University.They had interrupted their research to accept an invitation to take part in an unusual experiment:“an interesting week of poetry.”This class was part of a study to answer the questions:Why is science difficult for many nonscience students?What can teachers learn about teaching
24、 if they take a class that is not in their field?The students in the poetry class listened to lectures and took notes.They had reading tasks and had to write three short papers.All students noticed one thing the importance of spoken words.In science and engineering classes,the instructors put tables
25、 and drawings on the blackboard.But in this poetry class,the instructors just talked.They didnt write anything on the board.The scientists and engineers noticed one similarity between science and poetry.In both subjects,students need to find layers()of meaning.Some layers are simple,clean,and on the
26、 surface;other layers are deeper and more difficult.This search for different levels of meaning doesnt happen much in undergraduate()science classes,but it is important later,in graduate school.And it is always important in humanities().Both the poetry instructors and their students learned somethin
27、g about teaching from this experience.One poetry instructor,for example,now sees the importance of using informative as he teaches.Most of the scientists agreed on several points.First,humanities classes might help science students to see patterns and decide which information is important.Second,the
28、 poetry class was fun.One engineer decided,“We need to change the way we teach engineering to make it an enjoyable experience for students.”But perhaps the most important result of the experience was this:All of the professors began to think about how they teach and how they can teach better.28.What

35、 who ate the most whole food had a 26%lower risk of future depression than those who ate the least whole food.By contrast,people with a diet high in processed food had a 58 higher risk of depression than those who ate a diet low in processed foods.Study author Dr.Archana Singh Manoux pointed out the
