    When Shakespeare was twenty?one, he went to London, a very interesting place, to try his fortune.

    There were the famous London Bridge and St. Paul's Cathedral, and palaces and markets and long streets full of shops.

    Then, too, there were the daily crowds where could be seen people from all over the world. Knights, scholars and highwaymen (拦路强盗) or thieves who had been infamous for their clever robberies, passed by each other.

    Here, also, were noblemen dressed in gold, from Italy, Spain and France; slaves from Spanish America, sea captains and ministers, soldiers and servants — all held by chances or interests within the gray walls which circled London, and whose gates gave welcome to as strange a crowd as could be found in the world.

    Into this curious crowd came Shakespeare, quick to see and eager to learn. And before long all these strange sights were as familiar to him as the faces of his own town's residents. Each one told its story to him so plainly that, as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods, so now he learned men and men's interests that make up the great world.

    And he learned these lessons so well that when he came to write his plays, he made such use of them as no writer ever made before or since; for it is the use of this knowledge of the world, combined with his own genius, that makes Shakespeare the greatest dramatist that has ever lived.

    1.What was London like in Shakespeare's eyes when he first went there?

    A．Dirty and small. B．Strange and interesting.

    C．Infamous and terrible. D．Familiar and modern.

    2.Which of the following best describes Shakespeare?

    A．Shakespeare got inspiration to write from his hometown, London.

    B．Shakespeare was eager to make friends with the noblemen in London.

    C．Shakespeare was good at observing and learning from the daily life.

    D．Shakespeare became the greatest dramatist owing to his own genius.

    3.What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 5 refer to?

    A．Crowd. B．Sight.

    C．Face. D．Resident.

    4.The passage probably comes from ________.

    A．a poster B．a textbook

    C．an advertisement D．an announcement

    It’s hard to find Alice Munro in the media. Even after she won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature, the Canadian writer just appeared for a quick interview and then dropped out of sight. On Dec 29, she still didn't seek the spotlight（聚光灯）when she was named one of the five Women of the Year by the Financial Times.

    In Munro's eyes, ordinary lives always hide larger dramas. So she records what we casually think of as the everyday actions of normal people. She often focuses on life in her hometown, a small village in Ontario which she is most familiar with. She writes about the ordinary things in the village－fox forming, trees filled in the Ontario wilderness, poor country alcohol and long last illnesses. Above all, she talks about girls and women who have seemingly ordinary lives but struggle against daily misfortune.

    She has a special talent for uncovering the extraordinary in the ordinary. These are ordinary people, ordinary stories, but she has the magic. Her precise language, depth of detail and the logic of her storytelling have made her stories inviting.

    Runaway, one of Munro’s representative works, is a good example of her writing style. One of the stories centers on the life of an ordinary woman Carla, who lives in a small Canadian town with her husband Clark. The story slowly forms a picture of Carla, trapped in a bad marriage, her unhappiness building into desperation until she decided to flee. The story of Carla is a story of the power and betrayals of love. It is about lost children and lots of chances that we can all find in life, There is pain beneath the surface, like a needle in the heart.

    Since she published her first collection of short stories in 1968, Munro has won many awards, with the Nobel Prize being her biggest honor. On Oct 10, 2013, the Nobel Prize committee named Munro the “master of the contemporary short story”.

    1.We learn from Paragraph 1 that Alice Munro_____

    A．didn't get on well with the media

    B．remained modest though very successful

    C．didn’t value the title of Women of the Year

    D. was surprised at winning the Nobel Prize

    2.What makes Alice Munro’s stories fascinating according to the text?

    A．Her writing techniques

    B．The complicated plots

    C．The humorous language

    D．Her rich imagination

    3.In her representative work Runaway, Carla_____

    A．leads a happy life with Clark

    B．is a faithful wife to her husband

    C．loses all hopes for a better life

    D．tries to run away from her husband

    4.What is the text mainly about?

    A．Alice Munro and her hometown

    B．The awards Alice Munro won

    C．Alice Munro and her writing style
