Yorkshire, England was the setting for two great novels (小说) of the 19th century. These were
Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre and Emily Bronte's also a gifted novelist, and her books have the same
extraordinary quality as her sisters'.
Their father was Pattick Bronte, born in Ireland. He moved with his wife, Maria Bronte, and their
six small children to Haworth in Yorkshire in 1820. Soon after, Mrs. Bronte and the two eldest children
died, leaving the father to care for the remaining three girls and a boy.
Charlotte was born in 1816 Emily was born in 1818 and Anne in 1820. Their brother Branwell was
born in 1817. Left to themselves, the children wrote and told stories and walked over the hills. They grew
up largely self-educated Branwell showed a great interest in drawing. The girls were determined to earn
money for his art education. They took positions as teachers or taught children in their homes.
As children they had all written many stories. Charlotte, as a young girl, alone wrote 22 books, each
with 60 to 100 pages of small handwriting Therefore, they turned to writing for income. By 1847,
Charlotte had written The Professor; Emily, Wuthering Heights; and Anne, Agnes Grey. After much
difficulty Anne and Emily found a publisher (出版商); but there was no interest shown in Charlotte's book.
(It was not published until 1859.) However, one publisher expressed an interest in seeing more of her work.

finest novels in the English language Emily lived only a short while after the publication of her book, and

| Advertising is a form of communication that uses all kinds of media, and is visible everywhere these days. Typical customers of advertising companies are other companies, or businessmen, who want to persuade potential customers to buy more of what they make or sell. But there are other kinds of customers. Some organizations spend large sums of money on advertising a political party or other group that sells what is not, strictly speaking, a product or service. Such non - profit organizations are not typical advertising customers, and they prefer ways of spreading knowledge, changing attitudes, and improving society. Many advertisements are designed to increase sales of products and services by either improving brand image or, in the case of non - profit organizations, expressing ideas. In order to achieve th~s, advertisements will often pass on truthful information while delivering their messages. Every major medium is a means of delivering these messages, including television, radio, cinema, magazines, newspapers, video games, the Internet and billboards (大幅广告牌). Advertising will usually be created and. placed by an advertising agency on behalf of company or other organization. Spending on advertising has increased greatly in recent years. In 2006, spending was estimated at $155 billion in the United States and $385 billion worldwide; the latter is expected to reach more than $500 billion by 2010. While advertising can be seen as a necessity for economic growth and social development, it is not without social costs. Advertisement emails and other forms of junk mail have become so popular that ~they have become a major burden to users of I nternet email services, as well as a financial burden on Internet email service providers.
