    Passage Three

    Romeo and Juliet was probably written in 1595, when Shakespeare was a young successful playwright. He had already written comedies and history plays, but had not yet developed his shill in tragedy.

    The power of fate is strong to Shakespeare’s play. Chance and evil eventually join to bring tragedy. Chance involves Romeo in a murder, chance prevents a message from reaching Romeo in time, chance brings about a deadly meeting in a cemetery.

    Many Elizabethans were followers of astrology(星相术) and believed that the stars could control events. Thus, Romeo and Juliet art referred to as” star-crossed lovers” whose stars doomed(命中注定)them to disaster.

    Elizabethans also had a concept of fate in the person of Dame Fortune (命运女神). By spinning her wheel, she could raise the state of a beggar or a lower that of a king. One of the fascinations of Shakespeare is the way in which he put these ideas into the play.

    One of the most difficult things to decide about this play is the question of responsibility. Did irresistible fate bring tragedy to Romeo and Juliet, or were they themselves to blame? The fact that this question is not resolved by the author also helps to make Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet a fascinating work.

    44. According to Para.1, Shakespeare wrote Romeo and Juliet ____.

    A when he succeeded in comedy and history plays

    B after he had developed his skill in tragedy

    C before he wrote comedies and history plays

    D when he was no longer young

  • 第4题：

    For any Englishman there can never be any discussion as to who is the world's greatest writer. Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him：that of William Shakespeare.

    Every Englishman has some knowledge of his work. All of us use words and phrases from Shakespeare's writings that have become a part of the English-speaking people.

    Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, made full use of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal employment of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand!

    There is probably no better way for a foreigner (or an Englishman!) to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare uses it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners), even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare's day.

    1). From the first two sentences of the passage we can conclude that ________.

    A. it can't be discussed about who is the world's greatest dramatist

    B. Shakespeare is regarded as the greatest writer

    C. Englishmen like to discuss about who is the world's greatest writer

    D. it can't be discussed about who is the world's greatest poet

    2). According to the passage many English words and phrases that we use today are from _____.

    A. Englishmen

    B. English speaking people

    C. Shakespeare's works

    D. ancient people

    3). To learn the richness of the English language, people should ______.

    A. write and read more

    B. be glad to be a foreigner

    C. learn from an English man

    D. read Shakespeare's plays

    4). The author does not suggest beginners reading Shakespeare's plays probably because _____.

    A. only Englishmen can understand his plays

    B. some of English usage and the meaning of many words have changed

    C. the works are too difficult for a beginner

    D. the works are for native speakers

    5). In this passage the author wants to _______.

    A. tell how great a writer Shakespeare is

    B. tell that some aspects of English usage have changed since Shakespeare's day

    C. tell that some English words are out of use now

    D. show the richness of English language

  • 第5题：

    If you are like most people,your intelligence varies from season to season．You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year．A noted scientist,Ellsworth Huntington(1876-1947),concluded from other men's work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.
    He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat．This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year．It does mean,however,that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.
    Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking．One reason may be that in the spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.
    Fall is the next-best season,then winter．As for summer,it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!

    One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that__.

    A.all nature,including man,is growing then
    B.it lasts longer than the other seasons
    C.it is not too warm and not too cold
    D.both B and C
