11、 Passage Three Visitors exploring one of Britain’s many historic buildings might expect to see beautiful objects and learn more about history. What
they won’t expect is to meet one of the former residents, and to be able to talk to them about their life and times. But, don’t worry. Although many old
buildings are said to be frequently visited by ghosts(幽灵), these people are not ghosts at all. All across Britain historic sites will be brought to life by real
people. They will be dressed in period costumes (clothes worn in an earlier time in history) and will recreate life as it was once lived at different times
during Britain’s history. Activities like these are called “living history”, and have become increasingly popular in recent years. An organization named
English Heritage, which maintain historic buildings and sites across England, will organize over 500 living history events, ranging from reenactment (再
次展现) of battles to traditional story-telling for children. The people who dress up in costumes and takes part in these events come from all kinds of
background. Some are trained actors, while others do it as a hobby. What they all have in common, however, is that they do not simply “act”. Instead,
they learn about every aspect of the period they are bringing to life --- everything from the way people behaved to the way they spoke. 41. What may a
visitor expect to see in a “living history” activity? [ 2 分 ]
A. Beautiful objects.
