Ⅲ. 阅读理解
A qualified doctor who rarely practiced but instead devoted his life to writing once said, “Medicine is my lawful wife, and literature is my lover. ”Russian writer Anton Pavlovich Chekhov, was a great playwright and one of the masters of the modern short story.
When Chekhov entered the Moscow University Medical School in 1879, he started to publish hundreds of comic short stories to support his family. After he graduated, he wrote regularly for a local daily newspaper.
As a writer he was extremely fast, often producing a short story in an hour or less. Chekhov’s medical and science experience can be seen through the indifference(冷漠)many of his characters show to tragic events. In 1892, he became a full-time writer and published some of his most memorable stories.
Chekhov often wrote about the sufferings of life in small town in Russia. Tragic events control his characters who are filled with feelings of hopelessness and despair.
It is often said that nothing happens in Chekhov’s stories and plays. He made up for this with his exciting technique for developing drama within his characters. Chekhov’s works combined the calm attitude of a scientist and doctor with the sensitivity of an artist.
Some of Chekhov’s works were translated into Chinese as early as the 1940s. One of his famous stories, The Man in a Shell, about a school teacher’s extraordinarily orderly life, was selected as a text for Chinese senior students. (243W)

that 既可指代上文的单数可数名词, 又可指代不可数名词, 后常有介词短语作后置定语。that的复数形式为those
one 只能指代可数名词的单数形式, 表泛指, one前可加形容词或定冠词, 它的复数形式是ones
it 指代前面所提到的事物本身
例如: Few pleasures can equal that of a cool drink on a hot day.
几乎没有快乐可以比得上热天喝一杯冷饮的那种快乐。
