The Beginning of Drama
There are many theories about the beginning of drama in ancient Greece. The one most widely accepted today is based on the that drama evolved from ritual( 宗教仪式). The argument for this view goes as follows. In the beginning, human beings the natural forces of the world—even the seasonal changes—as unpredictable, and they sought through various means to these unknown and feared powers. Those measures which appeared torituals. arose which explained or masked the mysteries of the rituals. As times passed, some rituals but the stories, later called myths, continued to exist and provided material for art and drama.
Those who believed that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that those rituals contained theatre because music, dance, masks, and were almost always used. the entire community did not participate , a(n) division was usually made between the “ area of acting “ and the “ area in which an audience sits ”. Besides, there were performers, and, since considerable importance was to avoiding mistakes in the practice of rituals, religious leaders usually that task. Wearing masks and costumes, they often imitated (模仿) other people, animals, or supernatural beings, and mimed (用哑剧表演出) the effect—success in hunt or battle, the coming rain, the revival of the Sun—an actor might. Eventually such dramatic representatives were separated from activities.
Another theory traces the theater’s origin from the human interest in this view , tales about the hunt , war or other things are told and gradually spread. through the use of action and dialogue by a narrator and then through the assumption of each of the roles by a different person. A closely related theory traces theater to those dances that are of animal movements and sounds.
36. A . background B. assumption C. evidence D. theory
37. A. viewed B. employed C. imagined D. dismissed
38. A. takeB. possess C guarantee D. control

A
There will come a time when you must decide to lead the life someone else has chosen for you… or the life you want.
According to legend, when a young boy asked the great Renaissance artist Michelangelo why he was working so hard hitting the block of marble that would eventually become his greatest sculpture, David, the artist replied, “Young man, there is an angel inside this rock, and I am setting him free.” In The Angel Inside, the well-known consultant and career coach Chris Widener uses Michelangelo’s words to explore the hidden potential that exists within us all.
In this unforgettable tale, Tom Cook, a disillusioned（幻想破灭的）American businessman, has traveled to Italy looking for direction in his life. In Florence, the last city on his tour, Tom meets a mysterious old man who opens his eyes to the art and life of Michelangelo and reveals what the artist’s work can teach him — and all of us — about the power of following your passion.
Whether you are looking for a way to reinvigorate your career or searching for the courage to begin a new one, The Angel Inside is a must-read if you want to find true meaning in your life and work.
The break-out business story that’s already sold more than 70,000 copies, The Angel Inside tells the story of a young man searching for meaning in his work and finding it in an unlikely place: the life and art of Michelangelo.
Advance Praise for The Angel Inside
“The Angel Inside is a powerfully simple story that helps you discover your potential for a passionate life!”
— John C. Maxwell, author, speaker and founder of INJOY Stewardship Services and
EQUIP
“ Chris Widener’s The Angel Inside is a short read that is long on wisdom for life. Take an from beginning to end, but more importantly, it will help you create your own life of power

I am Greek, and my family go to Greece every summer. Uncle Spyro and Aunt Aspa lived about 45 minutes outside of Athens. Every summer when we travelled to Greece, we would spend a couple of days with them.
I remember all the fun things we would do there. We would shake almonds (杏仁) off of the branches of Uncle Spyro's almond trees. Using his strong arms, he would break the shells off, and present us with the shiny white nut. With Aunt Aspa, we would pick lemons off her lemon trees and carry them inside the small house with the help of Uncle Spyro. Drinking the fresh lemonade and eating the delicious almonds, we would sit on the porch and talk. Uncle Spyro and Aunt
Aspa didn't speak English, and my Greek wasn't and still isn't perfect. But those peacefully quiet
time on the porch were the time that I miss most.
Uncle Spyro developed cancer from smoke for most of his life and he became very sick. We didn't go to Greece in 2009, but we planned on going again in 2010. But just in the late spring of 2010, we found out that Uncle Spyro was in the hospital shortly before we left for Greece. My mother, Alethea, and I wanted to see him. But he passed away before we could get there. We were didn't wait for us to go.
We still visit Aunt Aspa and we still pick almonds and lemons. We still drink the fresh lemonade and eat the delicious almonds on the porch. But somehow the lemonade isn't as fresh, and the almonds aren't as delicious as before.
I think I'm still here to comfort Aunt Aspa and that I'm still here to finish my life. I'm not afraid of death any more like some people. And I know that when I do die, I'll just be going up to Uncle Spyro, and we'll eat almonds and drink lemonade, just like before.
