For any Englishman there can never be any discussion as to who is the world’s greatest poet 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.
选项
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
答案
D
解析
文章第一句"For any Englishman there can never be any discussion as to who is the world’s greatest poet and greatest dramatist.",意思是:对于任何英国人来说,谁是世界上最伟大的诗人和剧作家是不用讨论的。言外之义“他们确定知道谁是”,这就 [D]的意思。因此[D]为正确答案。
