12、dishwater:无聊透顶，索然无味8.make an appointment with:与某人约会9.catch sight of:一下子看到，看见题目解析1.选D。题目问根据原文，不鼓励年轻人做演员的主要原因是啥呢？本题定位到原文第一段第一句。做这道题是关键是要仔细的哦，第一段说做演员是多么多么的幸苦呀，什么活都要干，起的比鸡早，睡的比鬼完，吃的比猪差，还挣不了多少钱。这给人的第一感觉就是做演员真辛苦呀，所以很自然的会想到不建议做演员的原因就是这行太累，那就选 C 吧！但是我们忽略了原文的第一句话。第一句话就说了为啥不建议年轻人做演员，也是问题提出的地方。第一句说表演是一个人满为患的职业
13、我们能给的建议只有是不让孩子当演员。Look！不当演员的的原因不就是人太多，饱和了嘛所以看文章要仔细哦2.选A。题目问舞台助理的工作很辛苦是因为啥呢？本题定位.额.就那两段，自己看着办吧（嘻嘻(*_*)） ，本题很容易排除 C、D 选项。根据原文，舞台助理什么都要做，原文用了 everything，确切的说明了真的什么都要做，A 看起来就是正确答案的样子，可是 B 也没有错啊，原文说了工作时间很长的啦（The hours are long.） ，但是比较一下，如果选 B 的话，我觉得应该把后边的 the salary is tiny 加上更好，却掉这个，就显得不全面，反而，A 说的就很全面了，
14、所以选 A 吧（英语答案选的是最佳答案哦）3.选B。题目问 But young actors with the stage in their blood are happy这句话是啥意思？这道题比较简单，从字面也可以猜的八九不离十的，那些舞台已经融入到血液中的演员是很开心的，这说明他们天生地就很喜欢表演，很喜欢舞台的，所以应该选 B。A.他们不关心工作是否艰难。傻子才会这么想呢，谁愿意干很艰苦的工作呢？C.他们天生就是乐天派，这个原文没有说，D 选项说的原文也没有提到。4.选D。题目问 Conie Pratt 啥时候成为一个著名的女演员的？根据原文，Conie Pratt 试镜成功后就演了一部戏的主角和她演对角戏的是一个著名的男演员，后来她就出名了。显而易见，她是演戏后才出名的，A、B 选项很容易排除，原文并没有说她是要配合男一号的呀，再说她演的也是主要角色的，C 错误！5.选B。本题问 once in a blue moon 是啥意思？根据原文，文章说 ConiePratt 的这种机会真是“once in a blue moon”啊！我们可以知道，这种机会真实千载难逢啊，很少才能遇上一会的,所以，这个短语的意思应该是千载难逢的意思，B 选项正是这个意思。A.突然；C.时不时，偶尔；D.彻底地，最终地。今天的题貌似很简单啊，木有挑战
