III. Reading Comprehension (50 points ) Task 1 (2 points each; I 0 points in all )

Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements ( No. 46 through No. 50 ). For each question or statement there are 4 choices. You should make the correct choice and put the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of Ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches. In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates (考生) for the doctor‘s degree.

Generally , however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all Students are tested on the on the same questions, was probably not known until the nineteenth century.

Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern Industry, A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and Carefully watched over by managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly, , during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines. One type of test ins sometimes called an objective test . It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writhes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly.

He lived in the 16th century . A few things , but not really that many , are known about his Life. And yet around the comment is unanimous : he was the greatest writer who ever lived. His name was William Shakespeare.

Shakespeare was born in 1564 in a little town called Stratford – upon-Avon. When he was in his twenties, he made his way to London. There he spent most of his working life. The theater was every popular at that time, and son Shakespeare was writing plays for them. (He also acted in some of the plays.) In 1599 the company built the famous Globe Theater .There Shakespeare wrote and acted until he retired in about 1607. Shakespeare wrote three kinds of plays: comedies, tragedies, and histories. Many of the comedies involved mistaken identities, women pretending to be men, and slapstick (滑稽剧)situations. One of his famous comedies is A Midsummer Night‘s Dream. Shakespeare‘s tragedies were often about a noble and honorable man who had one fault that helped bring about his downfall. Hamlet is an example. Shakespeare‘s histories were usually about kings of England, such as Richard IIIor Henry V. What made Shakespeare‘s word so great? It was not necessarily his stories. Many were retellings of stories the audience already knew . But the way he told the stories was often remarkable. He understood the way people thought and acted, and he built this into his characters. Even though they were created 400 years ago, Shakespeare‘s characters are believed today. Shakespeare‘s use of language – such as his beautiful descriptions and his clear, to – the – point statements – also made him great. Hundreds of famous English sayings come from his plays. One example: ―to be or not to be , this is a question. ‖ 51. This passage is mainly about_____ A. the Globe Theater B. theater in the 1500s B. Shakespeare‘s histories D. Shakespeare‘s life and work
