（单词翻译）

 In the heart of the Indiana University campus is a veritable trove¹ filled with invaluable² artifacts. Not very many people know about it.It's called the Lilly Library,and it's due for a visit. Luckily, This treasure trove is open to the public.That said, it’s a little different than a regular library. First off, you have to go through the librarian at the front desk, who will ask you to check your bags in the locker³ room. Then you approach another set of locked doors where you wait for a click.And open to find the Lilly’s reading room. This is where anyone can read rare books and manuscripts, even comic books!Christoph Irmscher is an English professor and he spends a lot of time in the reading room.Christoph found a schedule that poet Sylvia Plath wrote for her child’s nanny.He says that Plath was enormously compulsive. She typed out everything from her responses to complaining students, notes, letters, and this schedule that left no room for improvisation⁴.But then, you flip⁵ over this pink sheet of paper, remember, this is not a reprint, but the original paper – and Plath’s poet husband, Ted⁶ Hughes had used the back of her schedule to scrawl⁷ out a few verses.Hughes and Plath had a tumultuous relationship that ended in Plath’s suicide.For Christoph, there is so much to be taken from seeing unpublished manuscripts like this one.
