Ⅱ.閱讀理解
Today, we complete our story about the influential English writer William Shakespeare. He wrote plays and poems during the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, which remain very popular today.
During earlier times, people would probably have learned several ancient Roman and Greek plays. It was not unusual for writers to produce more current versions of these works. For example, in Shakespeare's play The Comedy of Errors Shakespeare borrowed certain details from the ancient Roman writer Plautus. For his play Macbeth, Shakespeare most likely used a work on Scottish history by Raphael Holinshed for information. Shakespeare might have borrowed from other writers, but the intensity(強度)of his imagination and language made the plays his own. While many plays by other writers of his time have been forgotten, Shakespeare and his art live on.
Shakespeare was also influenced by the world around him. He described the sights and sounds of London in his plays. His works include observations about political struggles, the fear of diseases, and the popular language of the city's tradesmen. Shakespeare's knowledge of the English countryside is also clear. His works include descriptions of deep forests, local flowers, and the ancient popular traditions of rural people.
It would be impossible to list all of the ways in which Shakespeare's works have influenced the world culture. But the first and greatest example would be his great influence on the English language. During his time, the English language was changing. Many new words from other languages were being added. Shakespeare used his sharp mind and poetic inventiveness to create hundreds of new words and rework old ones. For example, he created the noun forms of “critic”, “mountaineer” and “eyeball”. Many common expressions in English come from his plays, including “pomp and circumstance(裝腔作勢)”from Othello, “full circle(繞圈子)” from King Lear, etc. The list of cultural creations influenced by Shakespeare is almost endless. From paintings to television to music and dance, Shakespeare was well represented. Shakespeare's plays have been translated into every major language in the world.
Shakespeare became a well-known writer during a golden age of theater. His years of hard work paid off.
16.What can we infer from the passage?
A.Many of Shakespeare's works were influenced by earlier writings.
B.Shakespeare was hard-working when he was a student.
C.The experience of living in London helped a lot with Shakespeare's works.
D.Shakespeare became rich later because of the popularity of his works.
17.Shakespeare might have learnt some information from ancient Roman works in________.
A.King Lear
B.The Comedy of Errors
C.Macbeth
D.Othello
18.Why could Shakespeare's works survive his time?
A.Because there were so few people writing plays in his time.
B.Because he produced too many works that nobody else could do.
C.Because he was a rich and influential person of his time.
D.Because his works were rich in imagination and language.
19.Shakespeare's greatest influence should be on________.
A.the English language
B.paintings
C.television
D.music and dance
20.The passage is mainly about ________.
A.an introduction to Shakespeare's life and his works
B.the main features and styles of Shakespeare's plays
C.how culture influenced Shakespeare and he influenced culture
D.Shakespeare's greatest influence on the world culture
Ⅲ.任務型閱讀
下面文章中有5處需要添加小標題。請從以下選項(A、B、C、D、E和F)中選出符合各段意思的小標題。選項中有一項是多余選項。
A. The Long History of Marriage
B.Three Historical Stages of Marriage
C.Small Pay for a Happy Marriage
D.Requirements for Marriage
E.Wedding and Marriage Ceremonies
F. Reasons for Marriage
21.________
Married people know they must adjust to one another to make their marriage successful, and those adjustments require thoughtfulness, co-operation, and sacrifices of some personal desires. Through the ages, however, people in all lands have found that these adjustments are very little to pay for the lifetime rewards of a happy marriage.
22.________
Some countries, such as England and Switzerland, require that banns(結婚預告), or public notices of a proposed marriage, be announced. In most civilized countries couples must get a license to marry. Most states require a blood test or a general check-up before granting a license.
23.________
Wedding and marriage are not the same. The wedding is the ceremony that marks the beginning of a marriage. The basic element of marriage is the consensus(意見一致) in the marriage ceremony—that is, the mutual agreement of the two people to be married.
24.________
The history of marriage may be as old as that of the man and family. In ancient times the man’s family often provided presents for all the relatives of the woman. If the gifts were favorably received, the man would be given the woman he wanted.
25.________
Marriage has developed through three stages. At first it was simply mating. The second stage gradually developed the legal process and moral obligations, and the rights of each mate began to be defined. The third stage stresses ethical(道德的) rights.
答案
課時作業(二)
Ⅰ.1. D 考查冠詞的用法。第一空表特指,用定冠詞the;a good knowledge of為固定短語,意為“熟悉,精通”。
2.C 考查副詞辨析。really “真正地”;obviously “明顯地”;actually “實際上”;generally “一般來說”,從句意來看,顯然actually最符合情境。
3.A 考查present作形容詞的用法。present作前置定語時,意思是“現在的”;作后置定語時,表示“在場的”。
4.C 考查時態、語態和主謂一致。A as well as B作主語,謂語動詞與A保持一致;此處應用主動語態。
5.C the former…,the latter…“前者……,后者……”,為固定搭配。late “遲到的,晚的”;later“稍后”;lately “最近,近來”。
6.C 考查動詞辨析。recognize “認出”。句意為:這20年來那個山村變化是如此之大,以至于我現在幾乎都認不出它來了。know “知道”;pick “撿起”;realize “意識到”。
7.A 考查定語從句與the same…as的用法。句意:你能給我買一本昨天你給湯姆的那樣的書嗎?the same…as “與……一樣”。故選A項。
8.D 考查情景交際。根據后句的“我不是出生在特權人家”可知,答案是否定的,故選no way “決不”;其余選項意思是“沒問題”,與句意不符。
9.C 考查動詞不定式的用法。句意:應當充分利用收集來的錢來幫助那些有困難的人們。句子的主語是the money,謂語是should be made use of,collected是過去分詞作定語修飾the money,to help作目的狀語。故選C項。
10.B 考查動詞request虛擬語氣的用法。句意:她要求不要向任何人談起她的決定。request所跟的賓語從句要用“should +動詞原形”,should可以省略,又因為no one 和tell是被動的關系,故用被動語態。應該選B項。
11.B 考查定語從句。句意:我不喜歡你嘲笑他的方式。先行詞是the way,引導詞作狀語時,可用that、in which 或不填引導詞。故選B項。
12.A 考查名詞辨析。句意:應他的邀請,我去參加了他的聚會。at one's request “應某人的邀請;在……的請求下”,符合題意。故選A項。
13.C ask sb. not to do sth.意為“請求某人不要做某事”,不能說ask sb. doing sth.。
14.A 考查同位語從句中的虛擬語氣。request之后的that從句為同位語從句,需用虛擬語氣,即謂語動詞用“should+動詞原形”,其中should可省略,故選A項。
15.D 考查常用表達的辨析。句意:收到她的來信真高興。信不信由你,我們上次見面是在30多年前。what's more “而且”; that is to say “也就是說”;in other words “換句話說”;believe it or not “信不信由你”。
Ⅱ.文章向我們介紹了一代文豪莎士比亞的作品為什么能夠從古代眾多的作家的作品中脫穎而出,以其頑強的生命力幸存于世的,就是繼承古代優秀作品之長,并具有自己的特色。
16.A 考查細節理解。由第二段的“Shakespeare borrowed certain details from the ancient Roman writer Plautus. For his play Macbeth, Shakespeare most likely used a work on Scottish history by Raphael Holinshed for information. Shakespeare might have borrowed from other writers,…”可以看出,莎士比亞的作品受到了早期作品的影響。
17.B 考查細節理解。由第二段的“in Shakespeare's play The Comedy of Errors Shakespeare borrowed certain details from the ancient Roman writer Plautus.”可知答案。
18.D 考查細節理解。由第二段最后一句“but the intensity(強度)of his imagination and language made the plays his own. While many plays by other writers of his time have been forgotten, Shakespeare and his art live on.”正是他的語言和想象力的強度使得作品獨具特色,具有了極強的生命力,留存到了現在。
19.A 考查細節理解。由倒數第二段的“But the first and greatest example would be his great influence on the English language.”可以看出,莎士比亞對后世最大影響在于英語語言上。
20.C 考查主旨大意。縱觀全文可以看出,文章向我們介紹了古代文化對莎士比亞作品的影響,以及其作品對后世尤其是對英語語言的影響。
