34、34B.C., Thespis was performing a hymn （贊美詩）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

35、.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

36、 several roles. Chonis 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 Tlieater of Dionysius in Athens could hold 20.000 people.

37、he actors. Performers used grand gestures and wore masks so that they could be seen by everyone in their huge audience. Tragic （悲曲I 的）actors wore long clothes and masks.

38、s were dressed up to look like animals.Another legacy （遺產）of the ancient Greeks is the deus ex machina, or “ god from the machine H . 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 a

39、ny 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.32. We can learn from Paragraph 1 that.A. the word ” thespian M

46、work that you think would be important enough to influence the children is also a good idea.

47、ess is something that you must not interfere with （干涉）during a children art education class. 40 But after that, you must wait for the children themselves to come up with something meaningful to their ability.
