56、hen saying or writing out numbers, the British put an and before the tens and units (个位数), as in one hundred and sixtytwo or two thousand and three. In the United States it is considered correct to drop the and, as in one hundred sixtytwo or two thousand three.In counting, it is common in both varie
57、ties of English to count in hundreds up to 1,900 so 1,200 may be twelve hundred. However, Americans use this pattern for much higher numbers than is the norm in British English, referring to twentyfour hundred where British English would most often use two thousand four hundred.In the case of years,
58、 however, twelve thirtyfour would be the norm on both sides of the Atlantic for the year 1234. The year 2000 and years beyond it are read as two thousand, two thousand (and) one by both British and American speakers. For years after 2009, twenty ten, twenty twelve etc. are becoming common.For the ho
59、use number (or bus number, etc.) 272, British people tend to say two seven two while Americans tend to say two seventytwo.When referring to the numeral (数字) 0, British people would normally use nought, oh, or zero, although nil is common in sports scores. Americans use the term zero most frequently;
60、 oh is also often used. When a phone or account number is being read aloud, 0 is nearly always pronounced oh in both language varieties for convenience.When reading numbers in order, such as a telephone number or serial number (序列号), British people will usually use the term double followed by the re
61、peated number. Thus 007 is double oh seven. Exceptions include the emergency telephone number 999, which is always nine nine nine. In the US, 911 (the US emergency telephone number) is usually read nine one one, while 9/11 (in reference to the September 11, 2001 attacks) is usually read nine eleven.
62、4Which of the following is TRUE about British English?AThe bus number 123 is read as one two three.BThe house number 218 is read as two eighteen.CThe number 2,800 is read as twenty eight hundred.DThe year 2018 is read as twenty hundred and eighteen.解析：选A细节理解题。根据第四段中的“For the house number (or bus num
63、ber, etc.)272, British people tend to say two seven two”可知A项正确。5British people will read the serial number 122 as _.Aone double twoBone two twoCtwelve twoDone hundred and twentytwo解析：选A推理判断题。根据最后一段开头可知，在读序列数字的时候，英国人读重复的数字时常用double。结合数字007的读法，可知应选A项。6When an Englishman tells you his telephone number,
64、 the numeral 0 is usually read as _.AnoughtBohCzero Dnil解析：选B细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句可知，为了方便，电话号码和序列号里的0在两种英语中都被读作oh。7The text is mainly about _.Ahow to read correctlyBthe difference between British and AmericansChow to read numbersDthat the number is important in western life解析：选C主旨大意题。全文都在讲美国和英国对不同数字的读法，
65、因此选C项。而其他选项都比较片面，而且不够准确。CShakespeares plays fit into three kinds: tragedies (悲剧), comedies and histories. Perhaps his most famous play is the tragic story of Romeo and Juliet, which deals with two young lovers who are forbidden to marry by their parents. Other tragedies include Hamlet, a play about
66、a vengeful (复仇的) ghost, Othello, about an army general who is controlled to kill his wife, and Macbeth. If youve seen Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, youll recognize “hubble bubble boil and trouble, fire burn and cauldron bubble”， which is sung in the Great Hall after the Sorting Ceremony.
67、 These words come from the witches in Macbeth!Shakespeares comedies include Much Ado About Nothing, A Midsummer Nights Dream and Twelfth Night. Twelfth Night is a play about confusing identities. Two twins are shipwrecked (遭受海难) and the sister, Viola, dresses up as her brother, Sebastian, who she th
68、inks is dead. Its funny, because the brother reappears without being recognized by Viola and theres a big love triangle going on: Viola is in love with the Duke, who is in love with Olivia, who falls in love with Sebastian, but she doesnt realize that it is Viola who dresses up as Sebastian!The hist
69、ory plays, such as Antony and Cleopatra, Richard and Henry are based on the lives of real historical people. Antony and Cleopatra is a story about a romance in ancient Egypt. Cleopatra becomes Antonys lover and Antony becomes so crazy about her that he loses his military power. Cleopatra commits sui
70、cide by letting a snake bite her after Egypts army has been defeated by Octavius and Antony kills himself, too. Shakespeares plays can be very difficult to understand sometimes. Some of the themes are very complex, so they almost always contain a lighter subplot (次要情节) with characters who arent clos
71、ely linked to the characters in the main plot.They are often used in tragedies to lighten the mood of the play and to keep the audience interested in the main plot.8According to the passage, we know that Othello is _.Acontrolled by his own wifeBa general who kills his wifeCan imaginary vengeful ghos
72、tDa wellknown historic person解析：选B细节理解题。根据第一段可知，奥赛罗是一位将军，因被人控制而杀死了自己的妻子。9What can we know from the play Macbeth?AMacbeth is Othellos wife.BIt is Shakespeares favorite play.CIts a science fiction like Harry Potter.DIt has an influence on later literary works.解析：选D推理判断题。哈利波特与阿兹卡班的囚徒里面有麦克白里的台词，可见它对后世作家
73、是有影响的。10What can be predicted about the ending of Twelfth Night?AEveryone becomes a mess.BIt ends up with happiness.CAll is going on as before.DMost of them couldnt accept the changes.解析：选B推理判断题。因为第十二夜是一部喜剧，所以可以推断它的结局应该是皆大欢喜的。11What can we learn about Shakespeares plays mentioned in the passage?AIts
74、 quite hard to understand all of them.BThe histories usually end up with sadness.CMany of them have something to do with love.DMost characters in the plays origin from the history.解析：选C细节理解题。根据文中提到的这几部戏剧来看，其中的罗密欧与朱丽叶奥赛罗第十二夜安东尼与克莉奥佩特拉等都和爱情有关。莎士比亚的戏剧并非都难以看懂；历史剧以悲剧结束在文中没有提到；大部分角色来自历史也和原文不符。D(2018南昌市十校模
