William Shakespeare is one of the greatest writers in English literature. His plays can be divided into three categories: histories, tragedies （悲剧） and comedies. Shakespeare wrote eighteen comedies, although two were lost. These comedies usually have happy endings and a light-hearted tone and style that are quite different from his tragedies.

All of Shakespeare's comedies have five acts and the most important or exciting point always takes place in the third act. The hero does not appear （出现）until after other characters have talked about him. Shakespeare had some themes that he usually wrote about: the fight between good and bad. love's great effect （影响）on people, and the difference between first appearance and a person's true personality or face. Shakespeare also wrote his play in a certain style. For example, Shakespeare used words in such a clever and humorous way that they had more than one meaning. Some of the characters changed their appearances so that people didn't know who they were.

Even though the tone is lighter in these days, comedies in Shakespeare's day were quite different from modern-day comedies because their purpose was not to make people laugh. Shakespeare's comedies are very emotional （有感染力的）and often include serious topics to think about.

23. How many Shakespeare's comedies can people enjoy now?

A. 18  B. 16 C. 5   D. 2

24. Which word has the same meaning as the underlined word “categories" in paragraph 1?

B. In the middle of the play.

B. Shakespeare's plays were written in a certain style.

C. The purpose of Shakespeare's comedies is to make people laugh.

D. The fight between good and bad is one of the themes Shakespeare wrote about.

If you cannot live without your car. Zurich might be the last city you would like to visit. In Zurich, people are welcome, but cars are not! Over the past 20 years, this city has used smart ways to make traffic lighter.

One is to keep the same number of parking spaces. For example, if 50 new parking spaces are built in one part of the city, then 50 old spaces in other parts are taken away for other uses. So the total number does not change. Some are unhappy that there are never enough spaces. That is just what the city has in mind: If people find parking more difficult, they will drive less.

Also, the number of cars in the city is counted （计数）. Over 3, 500 little computers are put under Zurich roads to check the number of cars that come into the city. If the number is higher than the city can deal with（处理）, the traffic lights on the roads that enter the city will be kept red. So drivers who are traveling into Zurich have to stop and wait until there are fewer cars in the city.

Now, you may ask why Zurich is doing this. This is simply because the city wants to make more spaces for its people.

27. The writer tells us how to keep the same number of parking spaces by_________ .

A. giving a reason B. giving an example

C. sharing a story D. drawing a picture

A. ①③   B. ②③   C. ③④   D. ①④

29. What will happen if the cars in Zurich are more than the city can deal with?

A. People will build more parking spaces under Zurich roads.

B. All the computers under Zurich roads will stop working.

C. Drivers will stop and wait before traveling into Zurich.

D. The lights on the roads in Zurich will be always kept red.

I'm glad to hear from you.

I did visit Beijing with my friends last week. The weather was sunny. The food was good. We ate some delicious food like Beijing Roast Duck. The trip visiting places of interest in Beijing is pleasant. We went to visit the Tian'anmen Square, the Palace Museum and the Great Wall. I think the best place to visit is the Great Wall. I is hard to imagine how magnificent it is. We walked along the Great Wall and enjoyed the beautiful sight on the sides of it.

Beijing is worthy of a visit. I hope you will have a great trip in Beijing.

Yours,

Li Meng
