Some 30 years ago from his death, heis still respected by many people in the West.The Beatles, formed in 1960 in Liverpool, were one of themost commercial successful acts in the history of pop music, with,according to some estimates, global record sales over 1.1billion.The band conveyed the progressive ideals in which many youngpeople of the time believed.In the 1960s and 70s, widespread tension developed in both British and American society, regarding issues such as women's rights and the Vietnam War.Lennon in particular became known for his message of peace and for his opposition to the war in Vietnam. This led to an attempt by former US president Richard Nixon to drive him away from the US. Lennon's second­wife Yoko Ono was also politically active.Lennon was also hugely admired for his musical abilities. Lennon and his fellow Paul McCartney were the Beatles' song­writing team.After Lennon was shot by crazy fan Mark Chapman，one of his most iconic songs, Imagine, became a humanist anthem(颂歌)、Lennon's legacy survived his death and continued till this day.In 2017, he was ranked the fifth greatest singer of all time in US­based Rolling Stone magazine.Former possessions of Lennon or furnishings from his homes continue to be sold for vast sums.In an auction (拍卖) to be held next week in London, lines written by Lennon on the back of a demand for an outstanding bill are expected to sell for ￡350,000.In August, a bathroom from his last home in Britain, was auctioned for ￡9,500. And in 2017, a British film describing his early years before the Beatles began, was one of the most successful films of the years in the UK.But do Lennon and his music continue to resonate (共鸣) with the young people of today?语篇解读：甲壳虫乐队的灵魂人物之一约翰·列侬遭枪击身亡，但是他的辉煌成就不可否认，他的深远影响让人赞叹。
