Romeo and Juliet was probably written in 1595, when Shakespeare was a young, successful playwright. He had already written comedies and history plays, but had not yet developed his skill at tragedy.
The power of fate is strong in Shakespeare’s play. Chance and evil eventually join to bring tragedy. Chance involves Romeo in a murder, chance prevents a message from reaching Romeo in 6me, chance brings about deadly meeting in a cemetery.
Many Elizabethans were followers of astrology (星相术) and believed that the stars could control events. Thus, Romeo and Juliet are referred to as "star-crossed lovers" whose stars doomed (命中注定) them to disaster.
Elizabethans also had a concept of fate in the person of Dame Fortune (命运女神). By spinning her wheel, she could raise the state of a beggar or lower that of a king. One of the fascinations of Shakespeare is the way in which he put these ideas into the play.
One of the most difficult things to decide about this play is the question of responsibility. Did irresistible fate bring tragedy to Romeo and Juliet, or were they themselves to blame? The fact that this question is not resolved by the author also helps to make Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet a fascinating work.
According to the passage, chance ______.
选项
A、involves Juliet in a murder
B、sends Romeo and Juliet into evil-doing
C、causes late arrival of a message for Romeo
D、leads to a happy meeting between Romeo and Juliet
答案
C
解析
第二段。Chance prevents a message from reaching Romeo in time.prevent A from doing B,阻止A做B。reaching,到达。in time,准时。偶然使得信息没有及时送到罗密欧手中。involve A in B,把A卷入B。偶然把罗密欧卷入谋杀,而不是朱丽叶。偶然和罪恶构成悲剧。join to do sth.联合起来做某事。而不是偶然把罗密欧和朱丽叶送去做坏事。deadly meeting,致命的会面,而不是happy meeting。
