(46) By the date of his birth Europe was witnessing the passing of the religious drama, and the creation of a new human coming from the Renaissance and the Reformation, and reflected in the life and thought of such men as Leonardo da Vinci and Christopher Columbus.
(47) But it is not only in the public sphere that these changes are evident: Shakespeare’s own life and work attest to the fact that the world was expanding in all directions.
(48) The exploration of the world, the investigation of nature, and the development of trade were bringing into being a new co*opolitani* and a new individuali*, which Shakespeare reflected in his plays.
(49) In the England of Elizabeth, expansion abroad was accompanied by a cultivation of something like a national consciousness at home, and the two combined to produce an extraordinary moment in English history.
(50) This was the moment of Shakespeare, and he gave it voice in language that has perhaps never been surpassed.

三、高频考点与答题技巧
1. 长难句拆解:遇到长句先找主干(主谓宾),再理修饰(定状补)。如第46句主干是“Europe was witnessing the passing and the creation”。
2. 抽象名词翻译:-i*/-tion 结尾的词常需具体化,如“co*opolitani*”译“世界主义”。
3. 被动语态处理:英语多用被动,中文多用主动。如“was accompanied by”译为“伴随着”。
4. 定语从句拆分:非限定性定语从句(which引导)常独立成句,加连接词如“而…”。
5. 代词的指代:务必明确it, that, which等指代的具体内容(如第50句的“it”指“the moment”)。
