Stratford-on-Avon, as we all know, has only one industry—William Shakespeare—.
But there are two distinctly separate and increasing hostile branches. There is the【M1】______
Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC), which presents superb productions of the plays
at the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre on the Avon. And there are the townsfolk who
largely live off the tourists who come, not to see the plays, and to look at Anne 【M2】______
Hathaway’s Cottage, Shakespeare’s birthplace and the other sights.
The worthy residents of Stratford doubt that the theatre adds a penny to their
revenue. They frankly like the RSC’s actors, them with their long hair and beards 【M3】______
and sandals and noisiness. It’s all deliciously ironic when you consider that
Shakespeare, who earns his living, was himself an actor and did his share of 【M4】______
noise-making.
The tourist streams are not entirely separate. The sightseers who come by
bus don’t usually see the plays, and some of them are even surprised to find a
theatre in Stratford. However, the playgoers do manage little sight-seeing along 【M5】______
with their playgoing. The townsfolk don’t see it this way and local council does
not contribute directly to the subsidy of the RSC. Stratford cries poorly 【M6】______
traditionally. Nevertheless every hotel in town seems to be adding a new
wing or cocktail lounge. Hilton is building its own hotel there, all which you may 【M7】______
be sure will be decorated with Hamlet Hamburger Bars, the Lear Lounge,
the Banquo Banqueting Room, and so forth, and will be very cheap. 【M8】______
Anyway, the townsfolk can’t understand why the RSC needs a
subsidy. The reason, of course, is that the costs have rocketed and ticket
prices have stayed low. It would be a shame to rise prices too much 【M9】______
much because it would drive away the young people who are Stratford’s
most attractive customers. They come entirely for the plays, not sights. 【M10】______
They all seem to look alike. [br] 【M8】
选项
答案
cheap—expensive
解析
根据该句前面的意思可知Hilton酒店装修豪华,故价格岢定很贵,而不是很便宜。
