One possible version:
William Shakespeare, who was born in 1564 and died in 1616, was a famous English poet and playwright.
He was born and raised in a poor family. While having little education, he became a talented writer. He wrote plays and poems that are read all over the world. His plays have been translated into every major living language, and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.
Shakespeare’s works take readers into a fantastic world, which not only let readers enjoy the beauty of the English language, but also teach us how to lead a meaningful life!。
