Peter Qwen has been making wigs (假發(fā))since the 1980s . He has made wigs for the stars of more than seventy movies ,including Tom Hanks in Philadelphia, Johnny Depp in Sleepy Hollow and Nicole Kidman in The Others. One of his biggest jobs so far has designed the hair and makeup for the three Lord o f the Ring movies . He had just six weeks to design and make more than a hundred wigs, each one a different style, color, shape and length.
The hair and makeup in a movie are just as important as the costumes or the sets. Over the years, Peter has made actors look older, younger, healthy and sick. For one movie he even made a female actor look like a man! "What people don't realize about wigs is that we are not always making people more beautiful," he says. "Often we are covering up beauty and making them look ordinary."
All Peter's wigs are handmade using human hair, so they look as real as possible. This also makes them very expensive -between US $ 4,500 and US $12,500 each! He knows he's done a good job when people don't realize the star of the movie is wearing a wig. So he was pleased when one newspaper said that Nicole Kidman had dyed her hair dark brown for a movie. "It was a wig and no one knew that9" he said.

A．How Peter Qwen's wigs change people
B．Peter Qwen: A wigmaker to the stars
C．Peter Qwen: Making real and expensive wigs
D．Peter Qwen's wigs are important in a movie

試題分析：這篇短文介紹的是假發(fā)制作商Peter Owen的故事。他為70多部電影中的明星制作過假發(fā)，這當中包括一些著名的明星，像Tom Hanks 、Jonny Depp 等。他的假發(fā)不只是讓人們變得漂亮，有時候還會使人變得普通。他的假發(fā)都是用真人的頭發(fā)制成的，價格很貴，但是可以達到以假亂真的地步。
小題1:主旨大意題。瀏覽全文可知，這篇短文為我們介紹了假發(fā)制作商Peter Owen的故事，他是一個著名的假發(fā)制造商，為很多明星做過造型。故B選項最能概括本文的主要內(nèi)容，故選B。
小題2:細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段"What people don't realize about wigs is that we are not always making people more beautiful," he says. "Often we are covering up beauty and making them look ordinary."，人們沒有意識到的事情是，我們不只用假發(fā)使人們變得漂亮，我們也經(jīng)常用假發(fā)掩蓋美麗，使他們看起來很普通。這就是Peter Owen的假發(fā)的特別之處。故選C。
小題3:細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段All Peter's wigs are handmade using human hair, so they look as real as possible. This also makes them very expensive可知，Peter的所有假發(fā)都是用人的真發(fā)手工制作的，看起來很真實，這就使他們的價格非常昂貴。故選D。
小題4:推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章的最后一段可知，當人們沒有意識到電影明星帶了假發(fā)的時候，Peter就會非常的高興，因為他覺得自己做的很好，可以以假亂真，故D選項的表述和文章的意思不符。根據(jù)文章He has made wigs for the stars of more than seventy movies可知A的表述是正確的；根據(jù)文章第一段He had just six weeks to design and make more than a hundred wigs, each one a different style, color, shape and length.可知B選項的表述是正確的；根據(jù)文章第二段可知C選項的表述是正確的。故選D。

One night, I was sitting in my kitchen half listening as my 15-year-old brother Tommy fought with my 12-year-old brother Kevin. I didn’t pay attention when Kevin rushed up the stairs with the hurt on his face.
About 20minutes later, as I was walking upstairs I heard Kevin crying inside the ____. I knocked on the door and asked, “Hey Kev, do you want to talk?” No answer. I tried again, “Hey, why don’t you come out of there?” Again, no answer. So I took a stack of（一堆） cards and a pencil and wrote, “If you don’t want to ______, we can write notes to each other.”
An hour later I was _______ sitting on the floor outside the bathroom with two stacks of cards in front of me. One was blank(空白的) and the other was cards _____Kevin on which he had translated all his unpleasant feelings into words for me.______ I read one of Kevin’s notes, tears came to my eyes. It said, “______ in this family cares about me, I’m not clever. Tommy thinks I’m a fool and Dad wishes he had the other Kevin as a kid because he’s better at basketball. And you’re never around to even ___ me.”
Tears came to my eyes as I wrote back to him. It was ­­­­­______what he had said about me. I wrote back, “You know Kev, I really do love you and I’m sorry I don’t always show it to you. I am here for you and you are _____ in this family.”
There was no answer for a while, but then I heard a tearing sound coming from inside the bathroom. Kevin, who had _____ cards wrote on a torn-up(撕毀的) paper cup, “Thanks.”
I wrote back “For what?” It returned to me with “l(fā)oving me” written on it. Since then, I try my best to ____ half notice my family members any more. Kevin and I have a closer _____  now, and sometimes when one of us notices that the other is upset we’ll smile and say “Write it on a paper cup.”
