Natural scenes often become the themes of poetry． Poets watch nature closely and present（呈现） its beauty in their poems． For example， poets may describe natural scenes such as a spring day or a snowy day． Besides， poets often express their feelings about nature by creating lively images（形象） in poems．
With images， poets can describe the details （细节） of something colorfully and clearly． Readers， on the other hand， can connect their own experiences with the images in the poems so that they can share the poets' ideas． Now let's read the poem "Who Has Seen the Wind？"
When we read the lines "When the leaves hang trembling" and "When the trees bow down their heads，" they remind us of a windy day． The poet successfully creates an image of the wind by describing details of the scene． These help readers think of the moment when the wind passes by． We might even bow our own heads， imagining that we are the trees．
In the poem "Night，" Blake describes many details of a night scene． People know very well what they can see at night， like stars or the moon． However， Blake sees more than just the moon itself； he sees the moon as a flower， smiling at us from up in the sky． So the moon is really compared to a flower and personified（拟人化） as a smiling person．

Birth order﹣﹣﹣does it matter？ Are you different because you are the first， second， or third child in your family﹣﹣﹣or maybe the last of nine？
A study found that first﹣borns have an average（平均的）IQ that is three points higher than people who fall into a different place in the birth order， perhaps because first﹣borns often help younger brothers and sisters， which improves their own skills． In 2007， an international organization of CEOs found that 43% of CEOs are first﹣borns ，33% are middle children， and 23% are last﹣borns． First﹣borns are more likely （可能的）to be doctors and astronauts and get higher pay．
If first﹣borns are more successful， last﹣borns are generally more agreeable． They are also more likely to be funny， possibly to get attention from all the bigger people at the dinner table． Mark Twain and Stephen Colbert were both the youngest in large families， and Jim Carrey was the youngest of four． According to a 2007 Time magazine article， "The power of Birth Order，" last﹣borns are more likely to be artists and successful businessmen．
Then there are the middle children； we have not ignored（忽视） them! Many middle children are short of one﹣on﹣one time with their parents． They often feel short﹣changed： the oldest gets more rights， and the youngest is "spoiled（宠坏的） "．Though they may be ignored， middle children are more likely to grow into easygoing adults．
