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.
Why is it worthwhile to study the various ways in which Shakespeare used English?
选项
A、English words have changed a lot since Shakespeare’s times.
B、Beginners may have difficulty learning some aspects of English usage.
C、English words are now being used in the same way as in Shakespeare’s times.
D、By doing so one can be fully aware of the richness of the English language.
答案
D
解析
这是一道细节题。本文最后一段的第一句话表明对于一个外国人来说,研读莎翁对英语丰富多彩的使用方法是欣赏英语丰富性和多样性最好的方法,因此选项D是正确答案。选项C与原文内容不符。
