5、eal something more: Hes feeling guilty and defensive. Or look at his work on NBCs hit drama This Is Us, where Brown plays Randall Pearson, a Black man adopted by a white family.

13、morizing lines takes practice and constant repetition. However, there are a few ways to make the memorization process run smoothly and quickly. 1For most performers, there is no quicker way of memorizing lines. To learn lines, an actor must recite the play loud over and over again. Most rehearsals(排
14、练) encourage this by running through the lines or having a“read-through”. By the time the opening night arrives, most actors have spoken their lines hundreds of times. Listen to your cast membersSometimes inexperienced actors spend rehearsals looking at fellow performers, waiting patiently to say th
15、eir next line. 2. This will help the actors learn their lines better because the context of the dialogue is absorbing. 3Because there is often not enough rehearsal time, many performers find ways to listen to the plays dialogue during everyday activities. They use a tape recorder or an MP3 player to
16、 listen to the lines from each relevant scene. Some actors prefer to record the lines of all the characters, including their own lines. 4. Others like recording the lines of fellow cast members, and they leave a blank space so that they can insert their dialogue while listening to the recording. Thi
17、nk positively and dont panicMost actors will experience stage fright before the opening night. Actors forget lines now and then. When it happens, however, most of the time the audience never notice. If you forget a line in the middle of your performance, dont freeze. Stay in character. Keep the scen

20、situation5.At other times6.have high expectations7.prefer to8.is taken from9.on a daily basis三、阅读理解1.B。推理判断题。由第二段可知在了不起的麦瑟尔夫人上一季的一幕中, 布朗扮演了一个精明的经理雷吉。他的语言很粗鲁, 但他的眼睛显露出更多的东西: 他感到内疚和防御性。或者看看他在NBC热播剧我们这一天中的表现, 布朗在剧中扮演被白人家庭收养的黑人兰德尔皮尔森。再次, 布朗的眼睛透露了很多情绪。由此可知两部电视连续剧都提到了布朗的眼睛能表达很多东西, 说明作者提到电视连续剧是为了支持布朗是一个眼睛演
21、员的观点。故选B。2.C。细节理解题。由第四段可知尽管布朗对自己的提名心存感激, 但他也认为今年艾美奖提名黑人演员的人数创纪录, 约占演艺提名人数的34%这是对今年夏天民权清算和黑人生命问题抗议活动的一个受欢迎的反应。这说明更多的黑人演员获得提名。故选C。3.A。推理判断题。本文讲述的是眼睛演员Sterling K. Brown的故事, 第六段讲述了布朗曾在颁奖典礼上创造过历史: 2018年, 他成为首位同时获得金球奖和银幕演员公会奖戏剧最佳男主角的黑人, 讲的是布朗的获奖信息; 第七段讲述了拥有斯坦福大学和纽约大学蒂希艺术学院的学位, 布朗花了大约20年时间出现在电视节目中, 比如一生的军嫂
22、和他的第一部连续剧常客, 他还在FX 2005年的短剧饿死中扮演警察, 讲的是拥有高学历的布朗的演艺路; 两段都是作者为布朗添加的一些背景信息, 这是为了让读者更好地了解布朗。故选A。4.D。标题归纳题。第一段讲“看演员Sterling K. Brown, 你可能首先注意到的是他的眼睛”, 第二段讲“Brown是一个眼睛演员”, 第三四五段讲“Brown获得艾美奖提名的相关内容”, 第六段讲“Brown的其他获奖信息”, 第七段讲“拥有高学历的Brown的演艺路”, 最后一段讲“Brown的新剧内容”。由此可知本文主要讲眼睛演员Sterling K. Brown的作品和贡献, D项“布朗: 一
23、个眼睛演员”符合文意。故选D。四、阅读填句1. C。根据下文(对于大多数演员来说, 没有更快速地记忆台词的方法。要学会台词, 一个演员必须反复地大声背诵这个剧本。)可知, C项“大声朗诵台词并且重复台词”符合语境。因此选C。2. G。根据上文中(有时缺乏经验的演员们用排练的时间看着其他的演员们, 耐心地等待着去说他们的下一句台词。)和空后的内容可知, 此处应是缺乏经验的演员们的正确的做法。故选G。3. A。根据下文中“record the lines of all the characters”和“recording the lines of fellow cast members”可知, A项“记住你的台词”适合作为本段的小标题, 故选A。4. F。根据空前内容可知一些演员喜欢录下所有角色的台词, 包括他们自己的。可知, 此处应该说这样做的好处, 即接下来他们不仅仔细听, 而且说所有的台词。承接上文, 故选F。5. E。根据上文如果你不幸有一次忘记了一句台词, 可能你再也不会忘记了。可知尴尬可能帮助记忆, 故E选项, 有时尴尬就是记忆最艰难的方法, 切题, 所以选E。第11页（共11页）
