Bassanio looked at the three boxes, but he didn't read the writing on them. He looked at the gold and silver. “The world is tricked by appearances,” he said. “People often hide ordinary things with beautiful gold, silver, and jewels. People always agree with those who speak well, even if they say foolish things. Many people who seem brave are cowards(懦夫). I don't want these beautiful boxes of gold and silver. I will choose the lead(铅) box with its ordinary colour. It speaks more to me than all the gold and silver in the world. Please give me the key to the lead box. Let happiness be mine.” When Bassanio opened the box and saw the picture of Portia inside it, he loved her even more because the picture was very beautiful, but Portia herself was even more beautiful than the picture.

The writing inside the box told him that he had chosen the right box. It said that he should go to Portia and look into her eyes. She would be his wife. Bassanio could not believe it.

“Is it really true? Will you really be my wife? I am afraid to believe it until you say so.” Bassanio asked Portia.

“Look at me,” said Portia. “I am yours. Everything I am and everything I have is yours. Until now, I was the ruler(统治者) of this palace, master of my servants, and queen of myself. Now the palace, the servants and I are yours. I give them to you with this ring. Let it always be the symbol(象征) of our love. If you lose this ring, or sell it, or give it away, it will mean that you no longer love me.

1.What kind of box did Bassanio choose?

A. Gold. B. Silver. C. Lead. D. Wood.

2.What did Bassanio see in the box?

A. A dead animal.

B. A picture of a fool.

C. A picture of Portia.

D. Lots of jewels.

3.What did Portia give to Bassanio?

A. A ring. B. A key.

C. A picture. D. A box.

4.Why did Bassanio choose the lead box?

A. Because he didn't like gold and silver.

B. Because he knew that Portia's picture was in the lead box.

C. Because Portia told him to choose the lead box.

D. Because he thought that the world is tricked by appearances and the lead box speaks more to him than all the gold and silver in the world.
