15、road through an international exchange program with a French school So，even before finishing high school，Downey had decided to follow suit(学样子) one day.”可知，唐尼的妈妈曾经出国留过学，且对自己的留学经历津津乐道，这让唐尼在高中没毕业时就想未来效仿妈妈去留学。由此可推知，唐尼的妈妈在唐尼眼中是一个优秀的榜样。2B细节理解题。依据第二段的“she started to feel unhappy with her school and decide
16、d it was time to study abroad.”可知，最终导致她作出出国留学决定的是她对唐尼所在的大学不是很满意，即这所大学满足不了她的期望。3C细节理解题。依据第四段的“because Danish architects are well known for their housing design”可知，唐尼选择丹麦的国际学校是因为丹麦的建筑师以其住宅设计闻名。4A推理判断题。依据最后一段的内容可知，唐尼在国外不得不独自处理许多问题，比如克服语言障碍，还要走出自己的舒适区等，也就是说留学的生活并不容易。.完形填空Just a few months earlier I woul

25、举起；draw back收回。结合上文萨瑟老师挑选扮演主角桃乐茜的人，结合下文“you didnt raise your hand”可知，是有几只激动的手马上举起来了。7D句意：放学后，萨瑟老师对我说：“达拉斯，我很惊讶你没有举手。”结合后文“Youre great at memorizing things，and you have such a sweet personality.Perfect for Dorothy! ”可知，萨瑟老师认为作者是扮演桃乐茜的最佳人选，因此惊讶于作者没有举手。8B句意：我在写剧本的时候就把你想成桃乐茜了。结合上文萨瑟老师认为作者是扮演桃乐茜的最佳人选，可知萨
26、瑟老师在写剧本的时候就已经把作者想成桃乐茜了。短语have sb.in mind “心中想着某人”。9B句意：如果你真的不想，我也不会逼你。结合下文“dont want to，though，I wont make you.”可知，如果作者真的不想扮演桃乐茜，萨瑟老师也不会勉强她。10B句意：这是你的选择。结合上文老师的话可知，要不要扮演桃乐茜是作者的选择，萨瑟老师不会勉强。11A句意：我接受了这个角色。结合上文“I realised it was time to show the world who I really was.”可知，作者还是接受了这个角色。12A句意：经过五个月的练习、台词记
27、忆和服装制作，我们已经准备好了。根据常识作者表演戏剧需要经过练习。13C句意：在戏剧的最后，当观众起立鼓掌时，我知道他们不仅仅是在为我当晚的表演喝彩，也是因为我重拾信心，他们知道以后会有更多的表演。celebrate庆祝；chat聊天；cheer欢呼；congratulate恭喜。结合上文“when the audience stood and applauded”可知，观众为作者的表演而欢呼喝彩。14D句意同上题。结合上文“when the audience stood and applauded”可知，作者的戏剧表演很成功，大家都为之喝彩。15B句意同第13题。结合上文作者从一开始不敢举手申请扮演角色到最后演出的成功，可知作者重拾了自信。
