解析:

(1)

这是一个主从复合句,主语是Chaucer Geoffrey,谓语是influenced,who引导一个非限制性定语从句。

(2)

通篇讲的是英语文学,不涉及A、B、C项的内容。

(3)

此题考查固定短语,sb.is known as…某人作为……而出名。

(4)

also“也”用于肯定句的句中;too“也”,用于肯定句的句末,用逗号隔开;either“也”,用于否定句的句末,用逗号隔开;neither“也不”,常用于倒装结构。

(5)

从上文中看出his important original work“他的处女作”,work“作品”,包括小说、戏剧、诗歌等。

(6)

由并列动词adapt(改编)看出,此处选择translate(翻译)最合适。“他翻译和改编宗教和历史著作。”

(7)

这里指“一首具有8,000多行的诗”。

(8)

从下文知道The Canterbury Tales也是一部大作,因此用besides;A、B、C项都表示不包括。

(9)

a collection of ancient stories一个古老故事的作品集。

(10)

join a band加入一群人,band,“一伙人”;join加入一个团体,成为其中的一员;join in加入某个活动;take part in参加某种活动;enter进入。

(11)

“主人建议举办一个讲故事比赛”,A项,鼓励某人干某事;C项,要求某人干某事;D项,convey“传达,传送”。

(12)

此处是with结构作方式状语,telling作宾语补足语。“在来回的路上,每人讲四个故事”,排除C和D项。

(13)

a variety of“不同种类的”,为固定搭配,of表示所属关系。

(14)

transform…into…把……变成……;form构成。

(15)

different opinions不同的意见,符合题意。A项“同样的”;C项similar“相似的”;D项endless“无穷的”。

(16)

此处是三个名词并列。B项与joy重复,故排除;A和C项都是形容词。

(17)

此处用形容词poetic修饰vocabulary,诗歌词汇。

(18)

此处rhyme指诗的韵律。

(19)

other其他的,泛指三者以上的其他的人或事物,修饰复数名词;another,泛指三者以上的另外一个人或事物,修饰单数名词;the other,指两者之中的另外一个;others,泛指三者以上的其他的人或事物。

(20)

此处用过去分词,作后置定语,表示“被动意义”,等于who was loved。

  Hand in hand, we walked by the stores.People smiled and nodded.“I   13   realized there were so many   14   people as we have seen this evening, dear,”I observed.

  “Probably your new straw hat or your   15  ,”she said.
