A
Legend has it that the performing arts began when a Greek singer named Thespis invented tragedy.In 534 B．C．, Thespis was performing a hymn（赞美诗）to the god Dionysius.Such hymns,called dithyrambs,were usually sung by a lead singer and a chorus.Thespis added a speaking actor.Performances at the annual Dionysian festival soon included plays with three actors as well as the standard hymns.By 449 B．C．,the Greeks were giving prizes to the best actor and the best playwright at the festival.A modern word for actor—thespian recognizes the debt today's drama owes to Thespis.
Performing in a Greek play required physical strength.Because each play had only three actors,performers had to play several roles.Chorus members both sang and danced.Being in the chorus for the many performances given at a festival was said to be as demanding as competing in the Olympic Games.
The Theater of Dionysius in Athens could hold 20,000 people.Even those in the front rows were quite a distance from the actors.Performers used grand gestures and wore masks so that they could be seen by everyone in their huge audience.Tragic（悲剧的）actors wore long clothes and masks.Comic actors wore short costumes that let them move freely and masks designed to make them look ugly or silly.Sometimes the chorus were dressed up to look like animals.
Another legacy（遗产）of the ancient Greeks is the deus ex machina,or "god from the machine".If a playwright was having trouble with the plot,he might have a god appear through a trap door（天窗）.The god would rescue the main character and find a solution to any difficult plot situations.Modem writers might not call on gods,but they do sometimes use unlikely ways to end a story.A character or an event that brings a complicated plot to an unlikely conclusion is still called deus ex machina.
1、We can learn from Paragraph 1 that .
A．the word "thespian" means "debt" in English
B．the Dionysian festival was held once a year
C．there were four actors in early Greek drama
D．the first tragedy was performed in 449B．C
2、From the passage we can know .
A．it was not easy to get a chance to perform in the chorus
B．the best actor and the best playwright would be given money
C．the playwright must play a role in the performance
D．the audience sat very close to actors to have a good view
3、According to the passage,one difference between early Greek comedies and tragedies is .
A．the actors' distance from the audience
B．the play's beginning
C．the number of performers
D．the actors' clothes
4、Deus ex machina is .
A．a kind of tragedy popular with ancient audience
B．a type of character that modern writers often write about
C．a way ancient Greek dramatists used to develop the plot
D．a style of performance first used by ancient Greek actors

The days of having to carry a phone charger everywhere could soon be over. Michigan researchers have revealed a major breakthrough in harvesting energy from human motion. They say it could lead to smartphones powered for a week by the motion of a swipe(重击).
Michigan State University’s low-cost device, known as a nanogenerator, has already been tested. Scientists successfully operated an LCD touch screen, a bank of 20 LED lights and a flexible keyboard, all with a simple touching or pressing motion and without the aid of a battery. The groundbreaking findings, published in the journal Nano Energy, suggest “We’re on the path toward wearable devices powered by human motion,” said Nelson Sepulveda, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering and lead researcher of the project.
“What I foresee, relatively soon, is the capability of not having to charge your cell phone for an entire week, for example, because that energy will be produced by your movement,” said Sepulveda, whose research is funded by the National Science Foundation.
Electrical energy is created when the device is compressed by human motion. The completed device is as thin as a sheet of paper. The device used to power the LED lights was palm-sized, while the device used to power the touch screen was as small as a finger. Advantages such as being lightweight, flexible and low-cost could make it a promising and alternative method in the field of Mechanical-energy harvesting.
The device also becomes more powerful when folded. Sepulveda said, “You can start with a large device, but when you fold it once, and again, and again, it’s much smaller and has more energy. Now it may be small enough to put in a specially made heel of your shoe so it creates power each time your heel strikes the ground.”
Sepulveda and his team are also developing technology that would transmit the power generated by the heel strike to, say, a wireless headset.
1、Who is Nelson Sepulveda?
A．The major researcher in the project. B．A professor of engineering.
C．The fund supplier of the research. D．A journalist writing for Nano Energy.
2、The underlined word device in the 2nd paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.
A．keyboard B．smartphone C．screen D．machine
3、From the passage we know that the nanogenerator ________.
A．becomes more powerful when kept flat
B．has already come into market in the USA
C．is lightweight and flexible though expensive
D．makes it possible to produce power by walking
4、The purpose of the passage is to ________.
A．persuade people to buy the device B．bring in a new way to save energy
C．introduce a breakthrough in science D．honor Nelson Sepulveda for his contributions
