3. X signifies an identification of oneself with an observed person or object which is so close that one seem to participate in the posture, motion and sensations that observes. The following passage, for instance, evokes from the readers such sense of participation:"The snail, whose tender horns being hit,/ shrinks backward in his shelly cave with pain.

4.The poetry written in the vernacular Anglo-Saxon, known also as old English, include X(eighth century), the greates of Germanic epic poems.

5. X was a European phenomenon during later part of the 19th century. Some writers belived that the end of the work of art is simply to exist in its formal percection, that is, to be beautiful and to be contemplated as an end in itself. Their slogan was the phrase "X".

6. A typical X poem is written in X verse and undertakes to render as precisely, vividlyand tersly as possible, and without comment and generalization, the writer's impression of a visual object or scene.

10. Autobiography is a biography written by the subject about himself or herself. It is to be distinguished from the X, in which the emphasis is not on the author's deceloping self but on the people and events that the author has known or witnessed. X was a pioneer of two fromer genre in American literature.

11. X is strongly evident in modern American fiction from Nathanneal West's A COOL MILLION (1934) to X's CATCH-22(1961) and Kurt Vonnegut's SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE (1969).

四、题目：In his influential article "Tradition and the Individual Talent" (1919), T.S. Eliot discussed the relationship between individual poets and the literary tradition which precedes them. Write an argumentative essay of more than 400words in response to the following exerpt taken fro that article. Illustrate your point with specific examples from the history of British and/or American literature.

Article:
"One of the facts [...] is our tendency to insist, when we praise a poet, upon those aspects of his work in which least resembles anyone else. In this aspects or parts of his work we pretend to find what is individual, what is peculiar essence of the man. We dell with satisfaction upon the poet's difference from his predesesors, especially his imediate predesessors; we endeavor to find something that can be isolated in order to be enjoyed. Whereas if we approache a poet without this prejudice we shall often find that not only the best, but the most individual parts kf his work maybe those in which the dead poets, his ancestors, assert their immortality most vigorously. And I do not mean the impressionable period of adolescence, but thr period of full maturity.
