解題思路:
浏览全文,重点关注4个黑色的小标题,我们可以看出本文主要讲英国即将举办的莎士比亚戏剧展演活动的剧目安排、剧团简介、演出使用的语言和演出时间等。
第21题,在题干中选定定位词National Theatre of China,我们带着定位词,很快定位到文中第一个小标题段落。本题问的是哪个剧目将在中国国家剧院上演,我们到下面找答案;由本小节第三句This production of Shakespeares Richard III will be directed by... 可知选项A为正确答案。
第22题,在题干中选定定位词Deafinitely Theatre,我们带着定位词,很快定位到第三个小标题段落,如此一来前面一段我们就不必看了,可以节约时间。本题问该剧院有何特别之处,通过标题下面一句话可以看出该剧院的独特之处是使用聋哑人能懂的手语,即英国手语(BSL)出演话剧,故C项正确。
第23题,在题干中选定定位词Hebrew,带着定位词Hebrew可以很快确定答案信息在文中第四个小标题段落。本题问何时可以看希伯来语的戏剧,由最后一段Date & Time:Monday 28 May, 7∶30 pm & Tuesday 29 May, 7∶30 pm可知选D项。
