Theatrical tradition Theaters in Britain date back at least to the 16th century, and the most famous playwright is of course William Shakespeare. A company was founded in his name, with a stage at his birthplace, Stratford-Upon-Avon. It has trained generations of actors. In the 20th century, classical and more modern plays were also performed at many regional theaters, where actors and writers gained experience. Film stars The world of film-making has involved British creative talent from the beginning. Charlie Chaplin, born in poverty in London’s East End, began as a child entertainer in music halls. He then became a pioneer of silent movies in Hollywood and created many black-and-white classics during the First World War. British actors, who were often 全科试题免费下载公众号《高中僧课堂》 高二英语试卷 第3 页（共8 页） classically trained in theater,like Laurence Olivier and Alec Guinness, became household names after the Second World War. Supporting talent Film-making creativity has been supported by two major studios. Productions at Shepperton have included Richard Attenborough’s Gandhi and Ridley Scott’s Alien. Pinewood’s most famous products must be the James Bond films. Both theater and film have their own annual festivals, including one of the biggest festivals—in Scotland’s capital, Edinburgh. Visual expression The visual arts also show Britain’s creative spirit, from Romantic Age painters like Turner and Constable to groups such as the Pre-Raphaelites and the modernist sculpture of Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth. Today’s famous artists—Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin—are regularly in the newspapers, and their works are sold at high prices. 21. Which of the following helps actors and writers a lot? A.Musical theaters. B. Stratford-Upon-Avon. C. London’s West End. D. Regional theaters. 22.What can we learn from the passage about Charlie Chaplin? A. He came from a rich family. B. He went to theater school as a child. C. He began as a child entertainer in Hollywood. D. He contributed to the early film industry in Hollywood. 23.What do we know about Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin? A. You have to pay a lot to buy their works. B. They have both invented new art forms. C. They mainly learnt from Romantic Age painters. D. You can buy their works from many major galleries. B Twelve years ago, Danny called me from a dark, damp subway station. “A baby!” he shouted. “Get down here, and flag down a police car or something.” By nature, Danny is a very calm person, so when I could almost feel his heartbeat through the phone line, I ran. When I got to the subway station, Danny was holding a light-brown-skinned baby, about a day old. The baby had been wrapped (被包裹) in an oversize black sweatshirt and left on the ground in a corner behind the gate. What neither of us knew, or could have assumed, was that Danny had not just saved an abandoned infant; he had found our son. Three months later, Danny appeared in family court to tell the story of finding the baby. Suddenly, the judge asked, “Would you be interested in adopting this baby?” The question surprised everyone in the courtroom, except Danny, who answered, simply, “Yes.” “But I know it’s not that easy,” he said. “Well, it can be,” said the judge before giving orders to allow me to be a parent-to-be. My first reaction, when I heard, went something like, “Are you crazy? How could you say yes without asking me? In three years as a couple, we had never discussed adopting a child: I was an devoted playwright (剧作家) working as a part-time word clerk. Danny was a respected yet wildly under-paid social worker. We had a roommate, who slept in our living room, to help pay the rent. We knew how many challenges couples usually faced when they want to have a baby. And while Danny had patience and selflessness, I didn’t know how to change a diaper (尿布), let alone nurse a child. I didn’t trust the social system and was sure there would be difficulties. Also, I couldn’t handle parenthood. So I promised myself I wouldn’t devote to it. The caretaker held the baby and then placed him in my arms. But when the baby stared up at me, with all the innocence and hope he showed to me, I, like Danny, completely fell for him. 高二英语试卷 第4 页（共8 页） 24. Why did Danny call the author? A. Because he found their lost son. B. Because he found a deserted baby and needed some help. C. Because he had a heart trouble. D. Because someone gave birth to a baby there. 25. What’s the reaction of the author after hearing Danny’s answer to the judge’s question? A. Very excited . B. A little angry. C. Worried. D. Disappointed. 26. Eventually, what would the couple do according to the last paragraph? A. They would send the baby to somebody. B. They would adopt the baby. C.They would leave the baby at the court.
