reason for editing this book is a hope of sharing my enthusiasm for the theatre with others.To do this I have searched through dozens of plays to find the ones that I think best show the power and purpose of the short play.Each play has a theme or central idea which the playwright(剧作家) hopes to get across through dialogue and action.A few characters are used to create a single impression growing out of the theme.It is not my intention to point out the central theme of each of the plays in this collection,for that would,indeed,ruin the pleasure of reading,discussing,and thinking about the plays and the effectiveness of the playwright.However,a variety of types is represented here.These include comedy,satire,poignant drama,historical and regional drama.To show the versatility(多面性) of the short play,I have included a guidance play,a radio play and a television play.Among the writers of the plays in this collection,Paul Green,Susan Glaspell,Maxwell Anderson,Thornton Wilder,William Saroyan,and Tennessee Williams have all received Pulitzer Prizes for their contributions to the theatre.More information about the playwrights will be found at the end of this book.To get the most out of reading these plays,try to picture the play on stage,with you,the reader,in the audience.The houselights dim(变暗).The curtains are about to open,and in a few minutes the action and dialogue will tell you the story.1.What do we know about the author from the first paragraph?A.He has written dozens of plays.B.He has a deep love for the theatre.C.He is a professional stage actor.D.He likes reading short plays to others.答案:B解析:细节理解题。

work?A.Stating the plays’ central ideas.B.Selecting works by famous playwrights.C.Including various types of plays.D.Offering information on the playwrights.答案:A解析:细节理解题。根据文章第二段第三句“Itisnotmyintentiontopointoutthecentralthemeofeachoftheplaysinthiscollection,forthatwould,indeed,ruinthepleasureofreading,discussing,andthinkingabouttheplaysandtheeffectivenessoftheplaywright.(我并不想指出这本书中每一部戏剧的中心主题,因为那样确实会破坏阅读、讨论和思考戏剧以及剧作家的有效性的乐趣。)”可知作者避免陈述戏剧的中心思想。故选A项。3.What

mind.答案:C解析:细节理解题。根据文章最后一段第一句“Togetthemostoutofreadingtheseplays,trytopicturetheplayonstage,withyou,thereader,intheaudience.”可知,作者建议读者试着想象戏剧在舞台上上演,这样才能实现最佳的阅读乐趣,因此作者建议读者运用想象力。故选C项。4.What is this

beginning of another in some way.Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways,and at different times on the calendar.In Western countries,people usually celebrate New Year at midnight on December 31st or January 1st.People may go to parties,sometimes dressed in formal clothes,and they may drink champagne(香槟)at midnight.During the first minutes of the new year,people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead.But some cultures prefer to celebrate the new year by waking up early to watch the sunrise.They welcome the new year with the first light of the sunrise.Many cultures also do special things to get rid of bad luck at the beginning of a new year.For example,in Ecuador,families make a big doll from old clothes.The doll is filled with old newspapers and firecrackers.At midnight,these dolls are burned to show the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start afresh(重新).Other common traditions to keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into rivers or the ocean,or saying special things on the first day of the new year.Other New Year traditions are followed to bring good luck in the new year.One widespread Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Year’s Day.The more grapes a person eats,the more good luck the person will have in the new year.In France,people eat pancakes for good luck at New Year.In the United States,some people eat black-eyed peas for good luck—but to get good luck for a whole year you have to eat 365 of them!5.Which of the following can be
