Rupert Brooke

      Rupert Brooke,one of the leading poets of his generation,was
renowned as a romantic, unlike many of his contemporaries who        【D1】________
specialized in writing about the pointless of war.                                  【D2】________
      He was born in 1887, the son of a House Master at Rugby,
where Rupert attended both the preparatory and main schools.When
he went up to Cambridge in 1906 as a classics scholar,he fared badly  【D3】________
in his examinations as his interests laid in literature and theater.          【D4】________
During his time at Cambridge, his wit and good 1ooks ensured his
place as a member of the elite circle of intel1ectuals study there.         【D5】________
      After university he went to study German in Munich,falling in
love with a sculptress there and working feverishly to begin his first    【D6】________
volume of poetry, which produced a profit within a few weeks of its
publication in 1911.
      With his early success，Brooke often felt unsettled as he                【D7】________
struggled to come to term with the underlying contradictions in his    【D8】________
character.Many times his free spirits and bohemianism conflicted        【D9】________
directly with the innate Puritanism he had inherited from his mother.  【D10】________
Because of these he would sometimes distance himself from his
fellows and adopt an irrational suspicious attitude towards them.
