On the night of the play, Albert was the hall early and he was already made-up long before the end of the first act.

Then he was seized with a sudden attack of stage fright. How could he _6_ all those people _7_ the audience? He put his head in his hands and tries to _8_ his lines. He had only a very small part, but his mind was a complete _9_.

解析:

1. A.

这句话的意思是:他赞美着镜子中的自己。爱波特第一次登台前,在镜子前照了又照,含有自我欣赏的意味。flatter奉承,阿谀She only flatters you so you will help her. 她只是奉承你,以便你能帮助她;gaze vi.后面接名词的时候和at连用;show 展示。只有admire 表示欣赏,可以用于别人,也可以用于自身。

2. D.

照镜子的时候人的影子在“镜子里”,用介词in. on 表示在表面,是相互之间有接触的。

3. B.

这句话的意思是:他甚至想知道是不是应该走在大街上,看看人们对他的印象是如何的。

wonder后面常常跟由if或whether引导的从句。

4. C.

“给某人留下印象”make impression on sb.

5. C.

这句话的意思是:当然只是开个玩笑。表示“开玩笑”,通常用joke或kid。我们也可以说:Just joking/ just kidding.

6. B.

这句话的意思是:他该怎样面对观众呢?

7. D.

这里是说“观众群中的人们”,台下坐的人们应该属于观众这一群体的,所以他们之间是一种包含或者从属的关系,表示这种关系用介词in。

8. C.

这位远远初次登台演出,最初的兴奋早已烟消云散,随之而来的是紧张和恐惧,使他都想不起台词了。Remember 想起,记起,回忆;refresh 使精力恢复;remind 提醒(sb of sth)

9. A.

这句话的意思是:他仅有很少的一部分,但是他的脑袋一片空白。我们通常用blank表示“毫无思绪,头脑空白”。His memory is a blank. 他什么也记不起来。a blank mind空虚的心灵

10. C.

这句话的意思是:一阵敲门声使他抬头往上看了看。Knock这个词兼有名词和动词的词性。后面经常和介词at连用。这里用作名词。

11. B.

这位演员正在想问题,所以把头埋在手中,当听到敲门声后,他抬头看了看。在使役动词make后做宾语补足语的动词不定式要省略to,即make sb do sth。

12. C.

这句话的意思是:他本来应该在第二幕上场。他已经错过了出场并毁掉这部戏吗?他觉得自己好像错过立刻出场,由于自己的失误而毁掉了整个演出。选项A.B.C.的意思分别是“延误”,“结束”, “延长”,均不符合题意。

13. C.

这句话的意思是:制片人建议他站在舞台旁边,在那里他可以观看演出同时也能跟上剧本。Suggest表示建议,后面的宾语从句用虚拟语气,即should+do的形式。order表示命令,用在这里语气太强。

14. B.

这句话的意思是:她说:“这是一个克服紧张的好办法”。Get at “到达,够到,了解”意味着“指责,含沙射影的攻击”;get over 克服,熬过,恢复;get away 逃脱,离开;get through到达,做完,通过。此处表示“克服紧张”,用get over。

15. D.

这句话的意思是:这个方法看起来很奏效。Work可以表示,起作用,奏效,正常工作,正常运转。如:I gave him some advice, but it didn’t work. Can you help me, --My radio doesn’t work.

16. B.

这句话的意思是:事实上,他看戏看得越多,他就越能融入其中,以至于他感觉到他是戏剧演出的一部分。这里要表示演员的内心感受的转变,而不是思想意识的转变,所以要用feel,不能用recognize。

17. B.

这句话的意思是:但是突然,制片人又一次站在了他的旁边。Side表示人身体的侧面,所以by one’s side表示“在侧面,在旁边”。

18. D. 这句话的意思是:这一次,当制片人把手放在他的臂上想要把他拉回原地时,显得有些担心。制片人担心的不是下文所讲的剧本中有三页被跳过了,而时因为演员因此无法出场了,她不知道该如何向这个演员解释。她本能地把演员往回拉了一点。Retrain 的本意时“限制,约束”,要表示往回拉,必须用介词back。

19. C.

这句话的意思是:她说“我恐怕你要感到失望了”。disappoint vt 需要宾语;disappointed 是形容词形式。

20. C.

这句话的意思是:他们跳过了三页,把你的那一部分遗漏了。Forget 忘记;lose 丢失;

miss=fail to say or include 错过,遗漏;omit 省略。
