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 theEnglish - speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we used, 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 to true 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 the writings of Shakespeare.
答案
D
解析
这是一道考察推理的题型。原文第一段“All of us use words,phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’s writings that have become part of the common property of the English—spea—king people.”中提到是对主讲英语的国家适用。因此选项A,B不够全面。选项C,“人们很有可能也不知道这些词的来源和用法。”在文中并没有提到,也不选。因此正确答案为D。
