For any Englishman, there can never be any discussion as to who is the world’s greatest dramatist. Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the work of the greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’s writings that have become part of the common property of the English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we use, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of Hamlet and complained that it was full of well-known proverbs and quotations.
Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, makes full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal use of English. Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five 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 used it. Such study is well worth the effort(it is not, of course, recommended to beginners)even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare’s day.
According to the author of this passage, ______.
选项
A、we use all the words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’s writings
B、Shakespeare’s writings have become the property of those who are learning to speak English
C、it is likely that people often do not know the origin of the words they use
D、all the words that English-speaking people use are taken from Shakespeare’s writings
答案
C
解析
这是一道主旨题。选项A和选项D都出现了“all”一词,说得太绝对,可以同时排除。选项B“莎翁的作品已经成为那些英语学习者的财富”,而文章最后一句话则说明对于英语初学者,不推荐研读莎翁的作品,因此不选。
