根据TheGreekTheater部分中的“AncientGreektheaterswerebuiltinnaturalopenairsitesonconvenientlyshapedhills.Thisallowedagreatmassofpeopletoenjoyashowatatime.”古希腊的剧院建在自然开阔的地方,建在形状方便的山上。
这使得一大群人可以一次欣赏一场演出,可知,希腊剧院建在山上是为了让更多的观众可以一起欣赏演出。
故选A。
(2)考查细节理解。
根据TheElizabethanTheater部分中的“Verylittlescenerywasused,sotheactorshadtocreateascenethroughtheirvoicesanddialogues.”布景用得很少,所以演员们不得不通过他们的声音和对话来创造一个场景,可知,在TheElizabethanTheater,演员的声音和言语能帮助创造场景。
故选C。
(3)考查推理判断。
根据TheRestorationTheater部分中的“Thestagewasaverycleveridea,inthatonthesidesofthestagelargebackshutters(百叶窗)werepaintedwiththescene.”舞台是一个非常聪明的想法,因为舞台两侧的大背板上都画着场景)可知,在TheRestorationTheater舞台设计非常巧妙。
