　　A

　　When Shakespeare was twenty­one，he went to London，a very interesting place，to try his fortune.

　　There

　　were

　　the

　　famous

　　London

　　Bridge

　　and

　　St.Paul’s Cathedral，and palaces and markets and long streets full of shops.

　　Then，too，there were the daily crowds where could be seen people from all over the world.Knights，scholars and highwaymen (拦路强盗)or thieves who had been infamous for their clever robberies，passed by each other.

　　Here，also，were noblemen dressed in gold，from Italy，Spain and France; slaves from Spanish America，sea captains and ministers，soldiers and servants—all held by chances or interests within the gray walls which circled London，and whose gates gave welcome to as strange a crowd as could be found in the world.

　　Into this curious crowd came Shakespeare，quick to see and eager to learn.And before long all these strange sights were as familiar to him as the faces of his own town’s residents.Each one told its story to him so plainly that，as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods，so now he learned men and men’s interests that make up the great world.

　　And he learned these lessons so well that when he came to write his plays，he made such use of them as no writer ever made before or since; for it is the use of this knowledge of the world，combined with his own genius，that makes Shakespeare the greatest dramatist that has ever lived.

　　C．an advertisement

　　D．an announcement

　　2．解析：选C。根据第五段可知，Shakespeare来到伦敦不久之后，通过观察和学习了解了伦敦，并适应了那里的生活，由此可推断出，Shakespeare擅长观察日常生活并从中学习，故C项正确。

　　3．解析：选B。画线词后的“as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods”的意思为“正如他以前所学到的田野和树林的秘密那样”，根据这句话可知，one指的是像田野和树林一样的景象，故B项正确。
