Using a weapon such as a baseball bat, or even a gun or a knife. Road rage is certainly not a joke. There have been incidents of road rage which have led to serious injuries and even murder.

They are now working to stop people using mobile phones when they are driving.

Authors wrote plays for the masses, especially those who couldn39。t read or write. The theatre changed a lot during Shakespeare39。s lifetime. The authorities didn39。t like it and didn39。t allow acting in the city itself: They thought it had a bad influence on people and kept them from going to church. Queen Elizabeth, on the other hand, loved acting and helped the theatre bee popular. The theatre in Shakespeare39。s time was full of life. People did not sit all the time and it was not quiet during the performance. The audience could walk around, eat and drink during the play. Theaters were open arenas or playhouses that had room for up to three thousand people. There was almost no scenery because the dialogue was the most important part of the play. Colourful and welldesigned costumes were very important and told the people about the status of a character. Women never performed in plays, 80 young boys played female characters. The performances took place in the afternoon because it was too dark at night. There was no stage crew as there is today. Actors had to do everything themselvesfrom making costumes to setting the stage. Plays were organized by acting panies. They performed about 6 different plays each week because they needed money to survive. They had almost no time to rehearse (排練). The panies in Shakespeare39。s time had a rank system. The pany belonged to shareholders and managers. They were responsible for everything and got most of the money when the pany was successful. Sometimes they even owned their own buildings. Actors worked for the managers and after some time became a permanent member of the pany. Apprentices (學(xué)徒) were young boys and were allowed to act in unimportant role. They also played female characters in plays.（1）Why was the theatre banned by the authorities?
