How did Joan bee a famous actress in two countries? Its an interesting story. Joan Chen was born in Shanghai in 1961. When she was 14, some people from a film studio (制片厂) came to her school and chose her to study at the studio. She was happy about this chance, but mainly she liked the idea of getting out of school. Soon, however she discovered that she really liked acting. At age 18, she won the Golden Rooster, Chinas top film prize. In the late 1970s, Joans parents, who were doctors, moved to the United States. Joan joined them when she was 20 and went to college there. Her parents hoped she would study medicine. In-stead, she majored in film and later looked for work as an actress. To work in the United States, Joan had to start all over again. She told Hollywood that she was an actress in China, but she only got some small parts in TV shows. One day Joan went to speak to a director who was making a movie called Tai - pan. The interview didnt go well. As she walked away, a man in a car noticed her. The man was Dino DeLaurntiis, the films producer. He immediately offered her a leading part. A year later, she started in Bernardo Bertoluis The Last Emperor and was on her way to worldwide fame. 1. What was turn about Joan Chen when she was 14? A.

The most important reason for her going to the studio was that she wouldnt like to stay at school. D. She found she was fond of acting even before she was 14. 答案解析：答案为C。本题为细节推理题。由第二段 “When she was 14, some people from a film studio came to her school and chose her to study at the studio”可知，A错误;由 “but mainly she liked the idea of getting out of school”可以推断，她不喜欢呆在学校, 故B选项不正确，C选项正确;由 “Soon, however she discovered that she really liked acting.” 可知，D选项错误。 2. When did she move to the States? A. In the late 1970s. B. After she graduated from college. C. In the late 1980s. D. In the early 1980s. 答案解析：答案为D。本题为数字计算题。由第三段的第一、二句 “In the late 1970s, Joans parents, who were doctors, moved to the United States. Joan joined them when she was 20 and went to college there.”可以推断，1961年出生的Joan Chen，20岁去美国上大学，此时应该是1981年，故答案为D。 3. The interview with a director _. A. made her on the way to being famous in the world B. led to no immediate good result C. made her play a leading part in Tai - pan D. gave her a chance to act in The Last Emperor 答案解析：答案为B。本题为推断题。从最后一段 “The interview didnt go well.” 可知， C选项不正确;由 “He immediately offered her a leading part. A year later, she started in Bernardo Bertoluis The Last Emperor and was on her way to worldwide fame.”可知，Joan Chen出演主角是在一年后，并开始走向世界范围内的成功之路，故A，D不正确;答案为B ，参加director的面试并没立刻产生好的效果。 B A school is showing badly-behaved pupils the error of their ways by sending them to an arts The Windsor boys secondary school used its school founding to save its local arts centre and establish a learning support unit there. Now expelled(被开除的) pupils and students who are likely to be expelled are studying a course at the unit in Windsor arts centre while also working with artists. One pupil was asked to show Naomi Jackson, the drama teacher at the unit, how he had acted in a fierce argument with a teacher on the rugby filed, which led to his expulsion(开除). Then he showed her how to imitate(模仿) his attitude. Ms. Jackson said, “He saw that the teacher had to get him out. Until then, he didnt really understand because he didnt have that self-awareness.” “It gave him the chance to look at himself from the outside.” Students also work in groups, acting as the aggressor, the victim and an observer to help them develop more awareness and understanding. A professional theatre group, Everyday Theatre, which consists of former pupils, is at the school and works in the learning support unit. An arts therapist(治疗专家) also helps students in the unit to express their problems and a street dancer builds up their discipline, concentration and capacity for hard work. Jane Turner is the teacher in charge of the Starts Project, which stands for Supportive Training and Arts. She said, “Its about using the arts to develop social skills as well as anger management, rather than just trying to make them good at drama or arts.” 53. What is the passage mainly about? A. How a school keeps students good at drama and arts. B. Why students are interested in learning drama and arts. C. A new attempt making students change their bad behavior. D. An unusual idea to turn badly-behaved students into excellent ones. 答案解析：答案为C。本题为主旨大意题。本文第一段介绍了改变行为表现差的学生的方式，后文围绕此方式展开，最后一段 “Its about using the arts to develop social skills as well as anger management, rather than just trying to make them good at drama or arts.”也对这一方式进行了进一步的解释说明，它是用来培养学生的社会技能和控制愤怒的能力，而不是仅仅让他们擅长戏剧或者艺术。故答案为C。 54. The underlined word “mimic”(in Paragraph 1) probably means _. A. correct B. watch C. improve D. imitate 答案解析：答案为D。本题为词义推断题。结合下文的第二、三段，被开除的学生在Windsor arts centre学习，并同时和艺术家一起工作，戏剧老师让某一学生表演他曾经和橄榄球场上的老师之间发生的激烈争执，再由第三段的最后一句话 “Then he showed her how to imitate(模仿) his attitude.”可以推断，mimic就是imitate。故答案为D。 55. The artists at the Windsor boys secondary school are working towards their goal by _. A. getting rid of students dissatisfaction B. developing students awareness
