What makes a person famous? This is a mystery that many people have carefully thought about. All kinds of myths surround the lives of well-known people. Most people are familiar with the works of William Shakespeare, one of the greatest English writers of the 16th and 17th centuries.(16)Yet how many know Shakespeare the person, the man behind the works? After centuries of research, scholars are still trying to discover Shakespeare’s personal history. It is not easily found in his writings. Authors of the time could not protect their works. An acting company, for example, could change a play if they wanted to. Nowadays, writers have copyrights that protect their work.
Many myths arose about Shakespeare. Some said he had no formal education. Others believe that he began his career by tending the horses of wealthy men. All of these myths are interesting, but are they true? Probably not.(17)Shakespeare’s father was a respected man in Stratford-on-Avon, a member of the town council. He sent young William to grammar school. Most people of Elizabethan times did not continue beyond grammar school: so, Shakespeare did have, at least, an average education.(18)Some parts of Shakespeare’s life will always remain unknown. The Great London Fire of 1666 burned many important documents that could have been a source of clues. We will always be left with many questions and few facts.
16. What does the speaker say about William Shakespeare?
17. What do we learn about Shakespeare’s father?
18. Why does the speaker say parts of Shakespeare’s life will remain a mystery?
选项
A、He moved to Stratford-on-Avon in his childhood.
B、He failed to go beyond grammar school.
C、He was a member of the town council.
D、He once worked in a well-known acting company.
答案
C
解析
本题考查对莎士比亚父亲的了解,由于使用的人称代词都是he,易对听前预测造成一定干扰,听录音时应注意将选项和短文内容进行匹配区别。短文中提到莎士比亚的父亲受人尊敬,是埃文河畔斯特拉特福镇议会的一名成员。故C)为答案。
