第21~25為題組    Shakespeare did not think up the plot of Romeo and Juliet. He borrowed it. What’s more, he used it again in his comic fantasy A Midsummer Night’s Dream. In this second use, though, Shakespeare made his audience laugh. The source for Shakespeare’s plot was an ancient poem about young lovers 21 Pyramus and Thisbe. These lovers are kept apart by their families, so they decide to die rather than live without each other.     Obviously, Pyramus and Thisbe were famous in Shakespeare’s days. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, even simple countrymen know the story, and they decide to act it out to entertain the guests at a nobleman’s wedding. However, the peasants are such bad actors 22 their telling of the story of the doomed lovers is more silly than sad. When the peasants are preparing their play, a fairy appears. This fairy 23 a spell and gives one countryman the head of a donkey. The queen of the fairies is put under a spell, too, so that she falls in love with this monster. Apparently, Shakespeare was 24 the cliché, “Love is blind.”    Eventually, the spells are lifted, and the lovers in the play all find one another. The peasants put on their play, which is, indeed, terrible, but the wedding guests enjoy it 25 because they are so happy. As Shakespeare said elsewhere, in this dream of a play, “All’s well that ends well.”
