答案与解析　
语篇解读　 本文是记叙文。作者认为自己没有什么才华可以表演，在伴侣的启发下，他打算在幕后统筹支配整场演出，使之井然有序，得到了大家的认可。
1．B 作者认为自己没有什么才华可以表演，老师却每天让他想出一些可以表演的东西，故something符合此处语境。
2．A 依据本段中的“If you get a cold, be sure to cough on me”可推想，作者跟伴侣埋怨说，期望表演那天自己“生病(sick)”。
3．D 下文中的“turns to our friends”提示了本题答案。
4．D 依据语境可知，Kate在帮作者想才华，所以问作者“擅长(be good at)”什么。
5．C 作者回答的Eating跟Watching TV并不是什么才华，所以Kate让作者“认真(serious)”点儿。
6．A Kate让伴侣们跟她一起想作者的才华，故Come on符合此处语境。
7．B　见下一题解析。
8．C 依据Tommy的建议“He could make a comedy show”可推想，他认为作者很“好玩(funny)”，而作者却不以为然，认为假如表演喜剧的话，那么每个“笑话(joke)”都是关于自己没有特长的。
9．C “作者不会表演喜剧”和“他总是能把大家聚在一起做好玩的事情”分别是作者的不足和优势，故此处应用转折连词but。
10．B 依据本空后的“I come up with a plan”可知，伴侣们的话启发了作者，于是作者开头“思考(thinking)”，最终想出了一个方案。
11．A 依据上句中的plan可知，老师认为这个方案是个好“办法(idea)”。
12．B 本空跟prepared并列，表示作者在接下来的几个星期里，始终为演出劳碌，确保一切预备妥当。故ready符合此处语境。
13．C 表演当晚，当人们“进入(enter)”体育馆时，大家都全都认为体育馆看起来棒极了。
14．D　见下一题解析。
15．A　依据下段内容可知，整场演出都是由作者支配调动的，所以这里是指当“表演(show)”开头后，一切都井然有序，每个表演者都“知道(knows)”轮到谁上场表演。
16．D 当最终一个表演结束后，应当是全部的“表演者(performers)”都上台谢幕。
17．C 老师首先确定了全部人的功劳，然后又提出有个人应当赐予特殊的“赞扬(praise)”。
18．C 依据下文的Producer及上文内容可知，作者并没有表演任何才艺，而是“待在(stayed)”幕后统筹支配整个演出。
19．B 依据老师的提议give a big hand to a special talent可知，当作者上台时，大家都为作者“鼓掌(clap)”。
20．A 依据文末的“I bet that is my talent”可知，作者最终找到了自己的才华，由此可推想，他“宠爱(love)”当制作人。
Ⅱ.阅读理解
What you communicate through your body language and nonverbal signals affects how others see you, how well they like and respect you, and whether or not they trust you. Unfortunately, many people send confusing nonverbal signals without even knowing it.
Jack, Ted and Arlene are all speakers who have got disastrous results while communicating with others.
Jack believes he gets along great with others, but if you were to ask any of them, they would say that Jack makes them feel afraid. Rather than just look at you, he seems to eat you with his eyes. And he often shakes your hand so hard that it hurts. Jack is a caring guy who secretly wishes he had more friends, but his nonverbal awkwardness (笨拙) keeps people at a distance.
Ted is good­looking, hard­working, and a smooth talker, but he seems to care more about his thoughts than others. When someone has something to say, TeD s wild eyes make him look like he wants to speak before they have finished. His inability to listen to others makes him unpopular with many people.
Arlene is funny and attractive, but even though she keeps laughing and smiling, she looks nervous. Her shoulders and eyebrows (眉毛) are noticeably raised, her voice is high, and her body is stiff. Being around Arlene makes many people feel uncomfortable.
These smart, well­intentioned people try their best to connect with others. The sad thing is that they have no idea of the nonverbal messages they communicate. If you want to communicate effectively, avoid misunderstandings, and enjoy trusting relationships, it's important to understand how to use body language.

A. By using examples.
