【答案】56.D57.B58.C59.A

【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了一旦你选择成为一名演员，许多朋友会认为你疯了，但是只有你才

能为自己和实现自己的抱负承担责任。作者在文中提供了一些关于演艺的知识。

56.细节理解题。根据第一段“Onceyouchoosetobecomeanactor,manypeoplewhoyouthoughtwereyour

closestfriendswilltellyouyou'recrazy,thoughsomemayreactquitedifferently.Notwopeoplewillgiveyou

thesameadvice.（一旦你选择成为一名演员，许多你认为是你最亲密的朋友的人会告诉你你疯了，尽管有

些人的反应可能截然不同）“可知，如果你决定从事表演，你很可能会收到很多密友的反对。故选D。

57.推理判断题。根据第三段“Ibelieveitisbestdescribedasnaturalskillphisimagination—thelatterbeing

themostdifficultqualitytoassess.Andithasalottodowiththeperson'scourageandtheirbeliefinwhatthey

aredoingandtheway（heyareputtingitacross.（我认为最好用自然技能加上想象力来形容，后者是最难评

估的品质。这与这个人的勇气、他们对自己所做的事情的信念以及他们表达的方式有很大关系）”可知，

就演出而言，作者最可能同意天才演员通常是那些想象力丰富的演员的说法。故选B。

58.推理判断题。根据最后一段"Disappointmentisthegreatestenemyoftheactor.Lastmonthyoumayhave

beenoutofwork,sellingclothesorwaitress!ng.Suddenlyyouarcaskedtoaudition（试镜）forapart,but

howevermuchyouwantthejob,thetruthisthatitmaybedeniedyou.Soactorstendnot（o（alkabouttheir

chances.Theycomeupwithwaysofprotectingthemselvesagainstthestressofcompetingforapartandthe

possibilityofrejection.（失望是演员最大的敌人。上个月你可能失业了，卖衣服或当服务员。突然，你被

要求试镜一个角色，但不管你多么想要这份工作，事实是它可能会拒绝你。所以演员们往往不会谈论自

己的机会。他们想出了保护自己免受竞争角色压力和被拒绝可能性的方法)”可知，关于失望，作者暗示

演员应该习惯它。故选C。

59.主旨大意题。根据第一段“Onceyouchoosetobecomeanactor,manypeoplewhoyouthoughtwereyour

closestfriendswilltellyouyou'recrazy,thoughsomemayreactquitedifferently.Notwopeoplewillgiveyou

thesameadvice”一旦你选择成为一名演员，许多你认为是你最亲密的朋友的人会告诉你你疯了，尽管有

些人的反应可能截然不同)”可知，本文讲述了你想成为演员，就要靠自己，以及在下文提供了一些关于

演艺的知识。由此可知，“所以你想成为一名演员“适合作本文最佳标题。作者以总结的口吻泥出了你的

愿望，是最佳标题。故选A。
