25、ugh Shakespeare wrote during the 1500s and 1600s, his themes are still relevant(切题的) today, and his writing is actually easy to understand if you take the time to break it down. Shakespeare wrote many plays and poems that had excitement, suspense(悬念), comedy, romance, and human drama. For example, S

26、hakespeare wrote about teenagers hanging out with their friends, fairies playing tricks on humans, ghosts haunting(出没于) castles, suspenseful sword fights, and lovers dying in each others arms. Shakespeares writing also shows that people faced the same challenges and emotions in the Renaissance(文艺复兴)

27、 as they do today. For example, he wrote about a young man who had to prove to his father that he was responsible. Shakespeares language is not too difficult to figure out if you have patience and focus on the words as metaphors(隐喻). For example, think about this quote: “Let every eye negotiate for

28、itself.” You know what all of those words mean individually, but you may not understand what they mean together. That is because he sometimes used words in a nonliteral(非直接的) way. Basically, Shakespeare is saying “Let each person decide for himself or herself.” He is saying that everyone should be a

29、ble to make his or her own choices or judgments. This message is as relevant today as it was when it was written long ago. Whether you like comedy or tragedy, action or romance, you may find that you can relate to Shakespeares stories more than you think. 28. The author provides evidence to show tha

31、on relationship. B. He described ghosts haunting castles.C. He wrote about fairies playing jokes. D. He described sword fights.30. To support the idea that Shakespeares writing is understandable, the author_.A. told several storiesB. shared his own experiencesC. listed the types of Shakespeares playsD. showed the modern meaning of a Shakespeare quote31.
