Read the text below and complete the questions below. When Chekhov was young, he had a dream: to be a bald, wizened old man and to sit behind a large desk in a good office. Once, he said,"I write about life." Yes, he wrote about life. The number and types of his protagonists were rich. Only the greatest novelists can compare with Chekhov in the richness and variety of the characters born of their imaginations. Just as the greatest novelists use their characters to express the characteristics of the entire era, Chekhov uses his typical characters and forms to express the image of Russia, which was forever gone in the last quarter of the 19th century. Chekhov seemed to be comparable to Balzac because of the infinite vastness of society introduced in his art. He lived in a big world and led it to himself, entering the city of Zachin, the manor of Merihovo, and the enclosed corner of Yalta. The great world did not give him peace. He did not find peace. The "shriveled little old man" was just an act he wanted to put on, so that he could avoid the harassment of daily life and work, work, and work alone. Cheha, who was eager to participate in the war, decided that he had to go to the front line as a doctor instead of a reporter because a doctor would see more. It was in his nature to want to see more. "If I am a doctor," he wrote,"then I need patients and hospitals; if I am a writer, then I need to live among the people, not in Little Dmitrovka... I need even a small part of social and political life, even a very small part, and this life of four walls, without nature, without people, without a country, without health and appetite-it is not life." Our age is watching Chekhov with new eyes. It discovered Chekhov, the complex, sometimes unattainable, profound writer. The humorist and the author of one-act lighthearted comedies were tormented by questions about Chekhov, the favorite of his time: Why do I write? Do you need me? What was an artist's career? What is the purpose of my literary career? Chekhov, the creator of the concept of "superfluous people", the painter of the twilight of the declining society, the author of the most detailed psychological dramas, short stories, and novels, said,"I think the most sacred things are the human body, health, wisdom, talent, love, and absolute freedom from power and lies. The last two must be expressed no matter what. This is the program I will follow, if I can become a great artist." "People have explained this and that to me. In short, all kinds of absurd and nonsensical words! I am, in the first place, a human being... I love nature and literature, and I abhor holiness and tyranny." Have we found everything in the author Chekhov? No, it was far from everything. But for us, the famous monologue from The Seagull rings especially meaningfully and sweetly now: 'I love this water, this tree, this sky, I feel nature, it arouses strong emotions in me and an irresistible desire to write. But I'm not a landscape painter, I'm just a citizen. I love my country and the people. I feel that if I were a writer, then I have the responsibility to talk about the people, their suffering, their future, science, human rights, and so on." Question 1: What is the meaning and function of the sentence "He said 'I write about life'"in the second paragraph of the article? (4 points) Sub-question 2: The author has used many writing techniques in the article. Please choose two writing techniques and briefly analyze their effects in the original text. (4 points) Sub-question 3:"Our era looks at Chekhov with new eyes." What is the deeper meaning of this sentence?
