问题     It is commonly believed that the great English dramatist and poet William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-on-Avon on April 23, 1564. But it is impossible to know the【C1】________day on which he was born. Church records show he was baptized (施洗礼) on April 26, and three days was a customary amount of time to wait before baptizing a newly born baby. Shakespeare’s date of death is【C2】________known, however: it was April 23, 1616. He was 52 and had retired to Stratford three years before.
    Although few plays have been performed or analyzed as extensively as the 38 plays Shakespeare wrote, there are few surviving details about his life. This 【C3】________of biographical information is due primarily to his social【C4】________; he was not a noble, but the son of a leather trader.
    Shakespeare【C5】________attended the grammar school in Stratford, where he would have studied Latin and read【C6】________literature. He did not go to university and at age 18 married Anne Hathaway, who was eight years his【C7】________. They had four children, including the twins, Hamnet and Judith. Nothing is known of the period between the birth of the twins and Shakespeare’s【C8】________as a dramatist in London in the early 1590s.
    In a million words written over 20 years, he【C9】________the full range of human emotions and conflicts with a【C10】________that remains sharp today. As his great contemporary the poet and dramatist Ben Jonson said, "He was not of an age, but for all time."
A)  captured
B)  classical
C)  conclusively
D)  emergence
E)  exact
F)  generated
G)  particular
H)  position
I)   precision
J)   probably
K)  quality
L)  scarcity
M)  senior
N)  separated
O)  systematically
【C10】
选项
答案I
解析 空格前有不定冠词a，因此空格处应填入名词。本句意为：在20多年的时间里，他用一百万字的篇幅，以今天仍然敏锐的________描述了人类全部的情感和冲突。本句是对莎士比亚作品的评价。that remains sharp today是修饰莎士比亚描述人类的各种情感与冲突的方式，说明他的方式是十分准确的，因此空格处应填入含有“准确”意义的名词，由此确定答案为I)precision。备选的其他名词不能用sharp修饰，因此排除。
