第一句：

Doubts about whether William Shakespeare (who was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in 1564 and died in 1616) really wrote the works attributed to him are almost as old as the writing itself.

参考译文：威廉•莎士比亚，1564年生于埃文河畔斯特拉特福卒于1616年，他是否写了是那些归名于他的作品?这样的怀疑几乎与作品本身一样古老。

第二句：

Alternative contenders—Francis Bacon; Christopher Marlowe; and Edward de Vere, the 17th earl of Oxford, prominent among them—continue to have champions, whose fervor can sometimes border on fanaticism.

border on :接近于

fervor 热情

fanaticism 痴迷

(这里所谓的contender竞争者的意思是说这些作品真的作者。)

champions=支持者

动词champion=支持

参考译文：其他的竞争者，如弗朗西斯•培根、克里斯托弗马洛和17世牛津伯爵爱德华•德维尔(其中最据优势的一位)，一直有各自的拥趸。这些支持者的热情有时接近狂热。
