When HAMLET Meets PEKING OPERA
I thought I knew a lot about Hamlet. As a high school student with English l___1___(文学) as one of my main subjects, I have to! Shakespeare's Hamlet is probably the most i___2___(重要的) play by the most important writer in English. A___3___(几乎) everybody knows “To be, or not to be”,right? Having seen quite a few productions of Hamlet and read the play many times, I was full of c___4___(信心) - until the Peking Opera came to town!
Dating back to the 18th century, Peking Opera has over two hundred years of h___5___(历史). Does this mean it's easier than a Shakespeare play to understand? To find out the a___6___(答案), I just had to go and see The R___7___(复仇) of Prince Zidan - the Peking Opera v___8___(版本) of Hamlet.
Starting with an orchestra playing t___9___(传统的) Chinese instruments, the opera brought a c___10___(完全地) new sound to my Western ears. At first, I thought what I heard was a violin, but later I learnt that it was an instrument with two strings called jinghu. Then, seeing the main c___11___(角色) come on stage, I was surprised! The costumes and masks were amazing. The performers of course sang in Chinese, but the music, e___12___(夸张的) movements and m___13___(做手势) helped get the meanings across to the audience. The voices themselves sounded really u___14___(独特的) - some of the f___15___(女性的) voices were so high that I was sure they could break glass! And the stage was really simple: a decorated w___16___(鞭子) represented a horse, and a screen with Chinese characters, a study. Using such t___17___(技巧,手法), the opera had t___18___(使改观,使变形) a small stage into the whole u___19___(宇宙,天地,万物).
Easily my f___20___(最喜欢的) part of the show was how the characters moved on stage. I had never seen Prince Hamlet do a backflip before! That was simply i___21___(难以置信的). It was so d___22___(印象深刻的,特别吸引人的) and
