2019-2020年高二英语艺术班周考（11） 缺答案Part 1阅读理解 (每空4分)some authors were asked to give their opinions on Shakespeare. Here is what they said.Gregory MaguireAuthor of Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West My favorite play is A Midsummer Nights Dream because of all the magic in it. Not long ago, I saw a high school textbook edition of it, and I picked it up because it was so beautifully designed. Shakespeare works very well because whatever you can think, he can think it faster than you or I can. He teaches me again and again how to think of new ideas for my writing.Jack GantosAuthor of Hole in My Life and the Joey Pigza series For me, the greatest pleasure in reading Shakespeare is that each character contributes to the formation of the whole idea. When the play is finished, it is as if nothing more could have been added or taken away. You have to take every character and every thought into account, which means it all has purpose. When I read Shakespeare, I know Im going to have to be sharp. I read a lot of Shakespeare when I was a teenager. And from the plays I learned a lot about human behavior. Shakespeares deep insights(洞察力) into human behavior exist forever. Shakespeare is surely on my all-time reading list.Nicole RubelCo-creator of the Rotten Ralph series I like Romeo and Juliet because of the way Shakespeare tells the story of the many misunderstandings which led to the couples sad endings. Each time I revisit the story, I hope somehow the messenger sends the letter or Juliet will wake up in time so they can live happily forever because I love happy endings. Well, it never happens. But I am hopeful.Brent HartingerAuthor of Dreamquest and Geography Club I find that a good production of Shakespeare can inspire my work and make me excited for a while. But when I see it done well, when its really inspiring, it doesnt get any better. It also makes me want to give up books and start writing plays because the experience of theater is just so magical.1. What does Gregory Maguire think of Shakespeare?A. He is the greatest author. B.

A few form groups which journey together, but most of them travel alone. And they travel through a universe so large that one star seldom es near to another. For the most part each star makes its journey in plete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well over a million miles from its nearest neighbor. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhere near it. We believe, however, that two thousand million years ago, another star wandering through space, happened to e near our sun. Just as the sun and the moon raise tides (潮汐) on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on the surface of the sun. But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in our oceans; a large tidal wave must have travelled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the cause of the disturbance came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before the star began to move away again, its tidal pull had bee so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and threw off small parts of itself into space. These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets.4.Most stars are _.A. following a regular path in space B. moving about without a fixed courseC. seldom wandering about in the universe D. always travelling together5.Two thousand million years ago, the mountain on the sun was raised probably because _.

Realize the power of decision making. 10 When you decide to pick up a cigarette, that decision might result in you picking up another later on. But if you decide not to smoke that first cigarette and make a decision to focus your attention somewhere else, your desire will eventually weaken and you will bee smoke-free. 11 When you make a decision, act on it. mit to making a real decision. Whats a real decision? Its when you decide on something, and that decision is carried out through action. Its pointless to make a decision in your head, but not doing anything about it. Thats the same as not making a decision at all. Tell others about your decisions. Sometimes telling other people what were going to do will make us follow through.

We are getting on well with each other. Therefore, there still exist some problems. Some students lose his temper easily because of anxiety and learning burden. They sometime quarrel with others, which is very disappointed. In my opinion, we middle school students should make our efforts improve the situation. Firstly, we should respect of other people. Secondly, when we are not feeling happily, we can chat with our friends or teachers or even parents. It is likely whether they can give us some reasonable advices. Last but not least, we can try to make some changes in our way of life.阅读答案 1-5_6-10_11-13_
