Question

【題目】 It was the beginning of 2011. I had just finished filming the first season of Game of Thrones（《權(quán)利的游戲》). With almost no professional experience, I had been given the role of Daenerys Targaryen. The show was so successful that young girls would dress themselves up as Daenerys for Halloween.

And yet, terrified of the attention, terrified of trying to make good on the faith that the creators had put in me, I worked much harder.

On the morning of February 11, 2011, I was getting dressed in a gym when I started to feel a bad headache. I was so exhausted that I could barely put on my sneakers. I tried to ignore the pain, but I couldn’t. I reached the toilet and sank to my knees. A woman came to help me. Then everything became unclear. I only remember the sound of an ambulance.

That operation lasted three hours. When I woke, the pain was unbearable. After four days, they moved me out of the I.C.U. (重癥監(jiān)護(hù)室). But one day when a nurse asked me, as part of a series of cognitive (認(rèn)知的) exercises, “ What’s your name?”, I couldn’t remember my name and I felt terrified: I am an actor; I need to remember my lines. Now, I couldn’t recall my name.

The phenomenon is called aphasia. Then I was sent back to the I.C.U. and, after about a week, I was able to speak and know my name. And I was also aware that there were people in the beds around me who didn’t make it out of the I.C.U. I was continually reminded of just how fortunate I was.

I rarely gave a thought to my health. Nearly all I thought about was acting. I thought of myself as healthy. Once in a while, I would get dizzy. When I was fourteen, I had a migraine (偏頭痛) that kept me in bed for a couple of days. But it all seemed manageable — part of the stress of being an actor. Now I think I might have been experiencing warning signs of what was to come.

Anyway, there is something pleasant about coming to the end of Thrones. And I’m so happy to be here to see the beginning of whatever comes next.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】A

【2】B

【3】D

【4】D

【解析】

這是一篇記敘文。作者講述了自己在作為一名演員對(duì)待工作非常認(rèn)真努力卻忽視了自己的身體健康，直到有一天她暈倒并進(jìn)了重癥病房接受治療，她才意識(shí)到要重視身體健康。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中With almost no professional experience, I had been given the role of Daenerys Targaryen. 由于幾乎沒有任何專業(yè)經(jīng)驗(yàn)，我得到了丹妮莉絲·坦格利安這個(gè)角色。可知作者覺得她認(rèn)為自己沒經(jīng)驗(yàn)害怕不能很好完成；And yet, terrified of the attention, terrified of trying to make good on the faith that the creators had put in me, I worked much harder. 然而，由于害怕受到關(guān)注，害怕兌現(xiàn)創(chuàng)作者對(duì)我的信任，我更加努力地工作�？芍�作者害怕公眾的關(guān)注。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)，故選A項(xiàng)。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中A woman came to help me. Then everything became unclear.可知，一個(gè)女人來幫助我。然后一切都變得模糊不清。作者是一個(gè)女人在健身房里救了她之后失去意識(shí)的。故選B項(xiàng)。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中But one day when a nurse asked me, as part of a series of cognitive (認(rèn)知的) exercises, “ What’s your name?”, I couldn’t remember my name and I felt terrified: I am an actor; I need to remember my lines. Now, I couldn’t recall my name.這個(gè)過程的描述可知，患有失語癥者會(huì)記不得事情，哪怕是自己的姓名。故一個(gè)患有失語癥的病人會(huì)不記得過去的事情。故選D項(xiàng)。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段Anyway, there is something pleasant about coming to the end of Thrones. And I’m so happy to be here to see the beginning of whatever comes next�？芍�，不管怎樣，能演完《權(quán)力的游戲》是一件令人愉快的事情。我很高興還在這里，見證未來的開始。所以通過這次生病，作者意識(shí)到自己的健康出了問題，但作者很感激自己身體還是很健康，判斷出作者將來會(huì)更加注意她的健康。更好地演戲。故選D項(xiàng)。
