标题：Inside the Nobel Prize in literature

正文：Alfred Nobel was a keen but mediocre writer. The Swedish dynamite tycoon wrote unpublished poems and a play featuring a 40-minute torture scene. To the dismay of relatives keen to inherit his fortune, his handwritten will of 1895 endowed five awards, including a prize for literature. Nobel instructed “the Academy in Stockholm” to give it to the writer of “the most outstanding work in an ideal [idealisk] direction”. The Swedish Academy spent decades puzzling over what “ideal” meant, before quietly dropping the criterion.

知识点：keen adj. /kiːn/
· 英⽂释义：very interested in and enthusiastic about something; eager to do something
· 中⽂释义：热衷的，热切的；敏锐的
· ⽂中意：热衷的——⽂中说诺⻉尔"a keen but mediocre writer"，即他对写作抱有热情，但才华平平。keen在此强调"热情有余"，与mediocre的"才具不⾜"形成对照，暗含惋惜与讽刺。
· 例句⼀：She was a keen amateur photographer who spent every weekend chasing the perfect light. 她是⼀位热衷摄影的业余爱好者，每个周末都在追逐完美的光线。
· 例句⼆：He remained a keen student of history long after he retired from teaching. 他从教职退休很久之后，仍是⼀位热切的历史学习者。
