问题 Some people hold that Shakespeare is more difficult to read than contemporary writings. Do you agree or disagree to this comment? State your reason(s) with at least three examples.
选项
答案I agree to this comment. Shakespeare is more difficult to understand than contemporary writings because many of his words were used in different senses from what they have now in contemporary daily life. Take his well-known play Hamlet as an example. Rival means "partner" as in "The rivals of my watch, bid them make hasten"; jump means "just" as in "Thus twice before, and jump at this dead hour"; vulgar means "common" as in "as common as any the most vulgar thing to sense"; censure means "opinion" as in "Take each man’s censure, but reserve thy judgement".
