Thanks. It's quite clear to me now.

boost::array<T,N> is an agregate class (which means
you can initialize it with a brace-enclosed list)
containing a member

  T elems[N];

which is in turn an aggregate. So, if you've got a
boost::array<People,3>, the list

  {
    {"Chun", "Wang", 1441},
    ...
  }

is apt to initialize elems, and for initializing the
boost::array you've got to add another level of {}:

  {{
    {"Chun", "Wang", 1441},
    ...
  }}

although the standard allows the omission of the outer
level under some circumnstances, as noted in

http://boost.org/doc/html/array/rationale.html


Hope it's clearer now. Best,
