26、long第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。( A ) William Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer ,made full use of the greatest resources of the English Language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal employment of English; Shakespeare in

27、 his works used about twentyfive thousand! There is probably no better way for a foreigner 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, even though some aspects of English usage ,

28、and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeares day. However ,it is surprising that we should know comparatively little about the life of the greatest English author. We know that Shakespeare was born in 1564 in StratfordonAvon ,and that he died there in 1616. He almost certainly atte

We know that he spent much of his life in London writing his masterpieces. But this is almost all that we do know. However, what is important abou

For many years scholars have been trying to add a few facts about Shakespeares life to the small number we already possess and for an equally long time critics（批评）have been theorizing（理论化）about the plays. So

31、metimes, indeed, it seems that the poetry of Shakespeare will disappear under the great mass of comment that has been written upon it . Fortunately this is not likely to happen. Shakespeares people have long delighted not just the English but lovers of literature everywhere, and will continue to do so after the scholars and critics and all their works have been forgotten.56According to the writer ,which of the following remains uncertain about Shakespeare? AHis date of birth. B
