第1题

For any Englishman there can never be any discussion as to who is the world's greatest poe
t and 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 our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare's writings that have become part of the common property of English speaking people. Most of the time we axe 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, made full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal, employment 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 a 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.

The passage tells readers that English people ______.

A.have never discussed who is the world's greatest poet and greatest dramatist

B.never discuss the world's great poets or dramatists

C.do not care who is the world's greatest poet and greatest dramatist.

D.are sure who is the world's greatest poet and greatest dramatist

How men first learned to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language i
s a【B1】______. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to【B2】______thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they【B3】______certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could be【B4】______. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words. The power of words, then, lies in their combinations — the things they【B5】______before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad【B6】______of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases. Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal【B7】______to our minds and feelings. This charming and telling use of words is what we call【B8】______style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and【B9】______can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and【B10】______.

听力原文: The human nose has given to the languages of the world many interesting expressi
ons.Of course,this is not surprising.Without the nose,we could not breathe nor smell.It is a part of the face that gives a person special character.Cyrano de Bergerac said that a large nose showed a great man courageous,courteous,manly,and intellectual.

A famous woman poet wished that she had two noses to smell a rose! Blaise Pascal,a French philosopher,made an interesting comment about Cleopatra's nose.If it had been shorter,he said,it would have changed the whole face of the world!

Historically,man's nose has had a principal role in his imagination.Man has referred to the nose in many ways to express his emotions.Expressions concerning the nose refer to human weakness:anger,pride,jealousy and revenge.

In English there are a number of phrases about the nose.For example,to hold up one's nose expresses a basic human feeling—pride.People can hold up their noses at people,things,and places.

The phrase,to be led around by the nose,shows man's weakness.A person who is led around by the nose lets other people control him.On the other hand,a person who follows his nose lets his instinct guide him.

For the human emotion of rejection,the phrase to have one's nose put out of joint is very descriptive.The expression applies to persons who have been turned aside because of a rival.Their pride is hurt and they feel rejected.This expression is not new.It was used by Erasmus in 1542.

This is only a sampling of expressions in English dealing with the nose.There are a number of others.However,it should be as plain as the nose on your face that the nose is more than an organ for breathing and smelling!

What is this passage mainly about?

A.The human nose as an organ for breathing and smelling.

B.The nose providing us with various expressions.

C.A woman poet's wish to have two noses.

D.Interesting comments made on Cleopatra's nose.
