Question

【題目】

Mrs. Dermit, my drama (戲劇) teacher, wanted to look for someone to play a leading role--an energetic boy in a play. ______, she thought that I could act this important part. After hearing the good news, my friend Kevin and I talked about the play happily. ______ Kevin wasn't chosen for a role on the stage, his job with helping all the actors was important to the success of the play. I told him I was a little ______ because I had a lot of lines (臺(tái)詞) to memorize. "You can do it." he said. I knew I could depend on him: we had been friends since the third grade, and we made a good team.

Preparations for the play moved at a quick pace. While doing his own work, Kevin also spent hours helping me learn my lines. He often said my lines with me by silently moving his lips. We even ______ that he could probably play my part as well as I could.

Everything was ready for the performance. However, on the day of the play, I woke up with a high fever and I couldn't perform. The play was planned to open in fewer than six hours, and we had no time to cancel it. I tried to think of a way to help. Then it hit me--Kevin knew the lines as well as I did. I called Mrs. Dermit to give her my ______. Within a few short hours, Kevin stood on the stage in costume (戲服) and makeup. The amusing lines he had practised with me so many times made the crowd laugh and cheer. In a strange turn of events, Kevin and I had ______ the day for everyone by working as a team.

Of course, I was terribly disappointed to have missed my chance in the spotlight, but I was extremely thankful to have such a good friend.

【解析】本文是說“我”有幸被選做戲劇主角，在前期準(zhǔn)備的階段一直由好朋友凱文陪伴，直到最后凱文也能夠?qū)ξ业呐_(tái)詞倒背如流了，表演當(dāng)天我突發(fā)重感冒，不得已由凱文頂替，最后讓表演順利地進(jìn)行了下去。

【1】句意：幸運(yùn)的是，她認(rèn)為我可以扮演這個(gè)重要角色。前文講我的老師在尋找一個(gè)可以做主角的人，我當(dāng)選了，當(dāng)然是幸運(yùn)的了，選項(xiàng)A“最近”，選項(xiàng)B“個(gè)人地”，選項(xiàng)C“幸運(yùn)地”，選項(xiàng)D“可能地”，故選C。

【2】句意：雖然凱文沒有被選為舞臺(tái)上的角色…，后句說的是“他幫助所有演員的工作對(duì)這部戲的成功非常重要。”，表明“即使，雖然”他不上臺(tái)，但是職責(zé)仍然重要，這里用“although”來引導(dǎo)這個(gè)讓步狀語從句，選項(xiàng)A“當(dāng)”，選項(xiàng)B“雖然”，選項(xiàng)C“因?yàn)椤�，選項(xiàng)D“在…之后”，故選B。

【3】句意：我告訴他我有一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)緊張，因?yàn)槲矣泻芏嗯_(tái)詞要記住。需要記很多詞說明內(nèi)心應(yīng)該比較緊張，外加后面他鼓勵(lì)我，更說明此刻我的心情是很緊張的，選項(xiàng)A“緊張的”，選項(xiàng)B“無聊的，厭煩的”，選項(xiàng)C“滿意的”，選項(xiàng)D“孤獨(dú)的”，故選A。

【4】句意：我們甚至開玩笑說他可以和我上臺(tái)表演的一樣好。這里提到的“他能夠上臺(tái)表演我的角色并且表演的一樣好”，是一句玩笑話。選項(xiàng)A“證明”，選項(xiàng)B“承諾”，選項(xiàng)C“期待”，選項(xiàng)D“開玩笑”，故選D。

【5】句意：我給德米特太太打電話告訴了她我的建議。前文說表演那天我得了重感冒，沒法去，經(jīng)過思考他給德米特太太打了電話，應(yīng)該是在提出自己的解決方案或是建議。選項(xiàng)A“問題”，選項(xiàng)B“信息”，選項(xiàng)C“建議”，選項(xiàng)D“解釋”，故選C。

【6】句意：凱文和我通過團(tuán)隊(duì)合作為每個(gè)人拯救了這一天。這里是說我最后沒能去表演，取而代之的是凱文，但是因?yàn)橹�前默契的合作使得表演順利進(jìn)行了下去，也可以說是為整個(gè)團(tuán)隊(duì)“拯救了”這一天。選項(xiàng)A“保持”，選項(xiàng)B“拯救，節(jié)省”，選項(xiàng)C“提供”，選項(xiàng)D“花費(fèi)”，故選B。
