  • 第3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

    Numerous parallels exist between Ernest Hemingway's life and the lives of his characters.

    A:studies
    B:problems
    C:similarities
    D:biases

    答案:C
    解析:
    本句意思:欧内斯特?海明威的生活经历和他小说中人物的经历有着许多的相似之 处。study的意思为“研究,学习”;problem的意思为“问题,难题”;similarity的意思为“类似”; bias的意思为“偏差,偏见”。parallel的意思为“类似,相似”,和similarity的意思接近。

    B

    正确答案: B

    Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
    A

    The RSC insists on teaching Shakespeare from the secondary school.

    B

    Pupils should study “texts drawn from a variety of cultures and traditions” required by the national curriculum.

    C

    The national curriculum does not require pupils to approach Shakespeare until secondary school now.

    D

    RSC believes children will gain a better appreciation of Shakespeare if they are introduced to him at a much younger age.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    第四段第一句提到,RSC的教育家们认为如果在孩子们还很小的时就让他们了解莎士比亚,他们会对莎士比亚的作品有更好的理解。可见,RSC是赞成早点教孩子们莎士比亚的作品的,而不是等孩子们到了初中才开始接触,所以A项的表述是错误的。

  • 第11题:

    According to the passage, the British Library ______.
    A

    is going to buy back Rushdie’s personal archive from Amory University

    B

    opposes the American universities’ acquisition of archives from British literary people

    C

    has discussed with Salman Rushdie about the acquisition of his personal archive

    D

    has expressed much concern over foreign buyers’ acquisition of Britain’s literary heritage


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    题干中British Library为关键点,从而定位到文章第三、四段。第三段最后一句指出Rushdie把他的文稿卖给美国一所大学这件事会“annoy the British Library”,并且英国博物馆将开会讨论如何阻止“famous writers’ archives being sold abroad”,可知D项与文章内容相符。

  • 第12题:

    单选题
    Which of the following is NOT true according to the last paragraph?
    A

    Professor Kate McLuskie once scolded Shakespeare in her essay.

    B

    Professor Kate McLuskie insisted on her view on Shakespeare till now.

    C

    Professor Kate McLuskie has changed her idea now.

    D

    Ms. Kate thinks it was time to get away from the idea that there was “a right answer” to any question about Shakespeare.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    此题可用排除法。从最后一段第三句“Her first foray into the world of Shakespeare was to berate him as a misogynist…but she now insists this should not be interpreted as a criticism of his works”可看出,她曾痛斥莎士比亚,但她现在认为那并不是对其作品的批评,所以A,C正确,B项错误。第二句提到“it was time to get away from the idea that there was ‘a right answer’ to any question about Shakespeare”可见,D也正确。

  • 第15题:

    By the end of his senior year, he was earning two hundred dollars a week writing science fiction, and his parents were reconciled to his pursuit of the literary life.


    正确答案:

    译文:到大四结束的时候,他每星期写科幻小说已经可以赚两百美元了,而他的双亲也接受了他对于文学生涯的追求。

    本题考核知识点:顺译法和分词的翻译。

    该句是and连接的并列句,其主干是he was earning... and his parents were...,可采用顺译的方法翻译。前一分句中,分词结构writing science fiction作方式状语,翻译时应置于谓语前面,译为“(通过)写科幻小说”。

    词汇:be reconciled to意为“将就,妥协,接受”。

    答案:A
    解析:
    经理高度赞扬他的员工表现出的一些优良品德,如忠诚、有勇气和诚实。 virtue“美德、优点”,最符合题意,例如:Virtue is fairer far than beauty.美德远胜于美貌。feature “特色”,例如:The spacious gardens are a special feature of the property.宽广的花园是该住宅区的一个特色。property“属性”,例如:A radio signal has both electrical and magnetic properties.无线电信号有电和磁两种特性。characteristic“特征”,例如:Ambition is a characteristic of all successful businessmen.雄心勃勃是所有成功生意人的共同特点。

    作者说休斯的诗中有“欺骗性的面纱”,是指其诗中掩藏着他创作时所投注的深思熟虑。从第二段“Yet an analysis of his dramatic monologues and other poems reveals that his poetry was carefully and artfully crafted.”可知,尽管休斯自称写诗时从不准备,自由随性,但其实是经过了精细的雕琢的。

  • 第19题:

    问答题
    Practice 4  Today I have read The Tempest ...Among the many reasons, which make me glad to have been born in England, one of the first is that I read Shakespeare in my mother tongue. If I try to imagine myself as one who cannot know him face to face, who hears him only speaking from afar, and that in accents which only through the labouring intelligence can touch the living soul, there comes upon me a sense of chili discouragement, of dreary deprivation. I am wont to think that I can read Homer, and, assuredly, if any man enjoys him, it is I; but can I for a moment dream that Homer yields me all his music, that his word is to me as to him who walked by the Hellenic shore when Hellas lived? I know that there reaches me across the vast of time no more than a faint and broken echo; I know that it would be fainter still, but for its blending with those memories of youth which are as a glimmer of the world’s primeval glory. Let every land have joy of its poet; for the poet is the land itself, all its greatness and its sweetness, all that incommunicable heritage for which men live and die. As I close the book, love and reverence possess me. Whether does my full heart turn to the great Enchanter, or to the Island upon which he has laid his spell? I know not. I cannot think of them apart. In the love and reverence awakened by that voice of voices, Shakespeare and England are but one. (George Gissing: Shakespeare’s Island)

    正确答案: 【参考译文】
    今天我读了《暴风雨》……我很庆幸自己出生在英格兰,在众多的理由中,首要的理由之一是,我能用我的母语阅读莎士比亚。假如我想象自己不能面对面地去认识他,只能听他从遥远的地方讲话,而且是用一种令人十分费解的口音讲话,我将会感到心灰意冷,也会因为被剥夺了一种权利而感到沮丧。我常这样想,我可以读懂荷马,而且可以肯定地说,假如有谁欣赏荷马的作品,那就是我;可是,我能梦想完全领悟他的音乐吗?我能像当初在古希腊海滩上漫步的古希腊人那样领会他诗篇里的每一个词语吗?我知道,越过广袤的时空传到我耳边的只不过是一个微弱的、断断续续的回声;我也知道,若不是这回声融汇着作为世界远古时代荣光火花的富有青春活力的记忆的话,这微弱的回声还会更加微弱。让每个国度都为它的诗人而感到欣慰吧;因为诗人就是这国度本身,就是它的伟大和温馨所在,就是人们置生死于不顾而要继承的遗产——只能意会不能言传的遗产。当我合上书时,心中充满了爱和崇敬。我的心是转向这位伟大的魔法师,还是转向他施过魔法的岛屿?我不知道。我无法从思想上将他们分开。那伟大的声音在我心中所唤起的爱和崇敬,已将莎士比亚和英格兰融为一体。

    单选题
    The function of literary artist is to ______.
    A

    communicate with the reader

    B

    carry on the business of life

    C

    provide a knot and stitch

    D

    present his ideas attractively


    正确答案: A
    解析:
    隐含事实的找寻和判断。关于文学艺术家所起的作用,录音中首先指出“the true business of the literary artist is to plait or weave his meaning”,接着说话者对该观点进行了详细的解释并表明了其目的“so that we are led to foresee, to expect, and to welcome the successive phrase”,可知文学艺术家的事业就是对其想要表达的意思进行编织和梳理,然后我们才会被他们引导着去预测、期待并乐于接受后续的语句。结合随后提到的“The pleasure may be heightened by…”,可知,通过对其语言意思进行编织和梳理,文学艺术家们会使受众感到愉悦,并为其观点所吸引。因此,D项内容符合录音原文。

  • 第21题:

    单选题
    According to the passage, one of Verdi’s achievements within the framework of nineteenth-century opera and its conventions was to _____.
    A

    limit the extent to which singers influenced the musical compositions and performance of his operas

    B

    use his operas primarily as forums to protest both the moral corruption and dogmatic rigidity of the political leaders of his time

    C

    portray psychologically complex characters shaped by the political environment surrounding them

    D

    incorporate elements of folklore into both the music and plots of his operas


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    文章第三段倒数第二句指出,“once he had become established, Verdi did not rewrite his music for different singers or countenance alterations or substitutions of somebody else’s arias in one of his operas, as every eighteenth-century composer had done”,由此可知A项最符合要求。B、C、D三项都是Verdi在创作方面的独特创举,而不是“conventions”,因此不符合题意。

    D

    To provide evidence that his literary genius was present when he was a child

    E

    解析:
    推断题。第一段中提到“Young James attended Dublin’s fine Jesuit schools…The story of his early life and his intellectual rebellion against Catholicism and Irish nationalism are told in the largely autobiographical novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man.”为Joyce今后文学创作提供了背景以及文化环境的说明,故本题选C项。
