Since I have been there I have learnt a lot more about dance, singing and drama. What is the most important is that I have become bold and active, and my life has been always full of hope and happiness since then.In dance I would learn a mixture of Jazz and Modern. In drama I would learn about improvisations(即席创作), role play, character hot sea and focus on scene. In a word, I would learn everything about the stage. In singing I would learn how to hold a note, how to send a breath, how to hit the impossible how to make a song your own and how to sing in confidence without going wrong.Before I started practicing these techniques with my teachers I was pretty much stupid about what any of those things meant.I have achieved so much since I have been there. I have participated in many plays with my performing arts school in theatre. I have played a jester(小丑) in Cinderella, Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, danced and sung solo(独唱) in local performances and even gained a casting agent(选择演员代理人) for acting.I have sung in my new school choir and I have been awarded the top award because of my years hard work and great achievement in my stage life.（1）What did the author learn in the school? A . Organizing performance activities.B . Adapting some dramas.C . Reading aloud on the stage.D . Singing and dancing.（2）The underlined word timid in paragraph 2 probably means . A . gentleB . kindC . of little courageD . inexperienced（3）We can infer from the text that stage life A . can change ones characterB . is always full of funC . means a bright futureD . needs clever children（4）What can we learn about the author? A . She will soon become a solo singer.B . She is very satisfied with her stage life.C . She was always the leading actress in the plays.D . She has a good understanding of what she learned at school.12. （6分）阅读理解 Since the beginning of history, man has been fascinated by the idea of living forever, of winning the fight against death and disease. So far, this has only remained a dream, though a very powerful one. Many people have wondered whether it would be possible to find a way to preserve human bodies, and what would be the best way to preserve human bodies.It has long been known that meat or fruit can be kept fresh for long periods by freezing; in ancient China, for example, food was stored with ice to keep it fresh. This method could also be useful for preserving humans, and in fact many people have explored this possibility.However, most living beings that exist under warm conditions die when frozen. This is because of the harmful effects of freezing ice crystals, which are not only larger than the volume of the water originally in the cells, but also form sharp cutting shapes that harm the cells.In the 1940s Dr B. J. Luyet and a group of scientists in England were working on the problem of freezing cells without damaging them. Since the harm caused by ice crystals was the main cause of the damage, Luyet suggested removing some or all of the water from the cells before freezing them.Using living cells from chicken, Luyet and his assistants discovered that they could partly dry the chicken cells, using a mixture of the white part of an egg and glycerin, a clear thick liquid made chiefly from fats and oils. Some success was obtained. The chicken cells were dried, frozen for a period of time, and then carefully unfrozen.Almost all the cells recovered when they reached normal temperature. Since then, the cooling of whole animals to a temperature very much below freezing point for later unfreezing has become more of a possibility, and the glycerin method would probably be used to accomplish this. When this can be done completely and successfully, science will have moved much closer to its aim of freezing and storing incurable patients until the day they can be cured.（1）It seems that the idea of preserving human bodies . A . is impracticalB . comes from that of storing meat and fruit fresh by freezingC . is quite funnyD . doesnt make any sense（2）From the fact that most living things existing under warm conditions die when frozen, the scientists realize that . A . living things cannot be frozen actuallyB . it is impossible for them to freeze human beingsC . the water from the living cells should be removedD . cells cannot recover when they are carefully unfrozen（3）Glycerin can be used . A . to remove water from living cellsB . to unfreeze living cellsC . to freeze living cellsD . to change the shape of crystals（4）What is the passage mainly about? A . The harmful effects of freezing foodB . How to preserve foodC . How to remove water from living cellsD . The exploration of preserving human bodies（5）What is the most probable meaning of the underlined word fascinated? A . attractedB . freedC . afraidD . sad13. （8分）阅读理解 New York is 3 hours ahead of（在前）California, but it does not make California slow.
