30、voted to ballet: Now her world collapsed around her. In the dark years that followed, it seemed that she would never dance again, much less become one of the worlds leading ballerinas. But Nina had courage-and a dream that began when she was very young.Nina was born in Warsaw and spent the early yea

31、rs of her childhood there; Her first school teacher noticed little Ninas grace and told her she should study dancing, Nina delightedly reported the teachers words at home, but her mother fought the idea, saying that no daughter of hers was going to be a dancer. Nina, however, was a determined child.

32、 She had made up her mind to be a really great ballerina no matter what the cost, and she worked toward this goal with her whole being. She coaxed and raged until her mother finally gave in and let her enroll at the Polish Opera Ballet School.Her first appearance on stage came three years later, whe

33、n she was allowed to dance the part of a slave girl in the opera Aida.

36、 anyone who did not have a job would be sent to a work camp. At great risk, Nina refused to dance at the large theater that the Germans had taken-over.

39、 died. Six months later, when liberating troops arrived and threw open the prison gates, she was so thin that she could hardly walk.Barely aware that the war was over; Nina listlessly began to pick up the threads of her life. She was reunited with what was left of her family, and they tried to make

40、some sort of life for themselves in war-tom Poland. She began to feel vague stirrings of the old, familiar desire to dance, but she was still too depressed and weak to practice. Her younger brother tried to encourage her. He began to practice with her, and soon they had built up a charming little da

41、nce routine of their own. Together they found dancing engagements in many Warsaw night spots. The family decided that the best future for Nina as a dancer was in the United Sates, and they started saving money for her to make the trip.Nina arrived in New York in 1947a slight girl whose tragic dark e

42、yes held the only hint of the heartbreak she had been through. She sent about learning to speak English and took intensive ballet lessons to retrain her still-frail body.

44、luck really have luck! She insists that it was luck that brought her two of her greatest roles. The first was Swan-Hilda in Coppelia.

She was the youngest dan

51、cer ever to become a member of its corps de ballet. 可知， Nina在十三歲時(shí)進(jìn)入波蘭戲劇公司，是最年輕的舞蹈演員。因此，本題正確答案為B項(xiàng)。2.細(xì)節(jié)事實(shí)題。由原文第四段The following year, she started out with the company on a long European tour.可知，在進(jìn)入Polish Opera Company之后，Nina參與了一個(gè)長(zhǎng)期的歐洲巡演。因此，本題正確答案為B項(xiàng)。3.C推理判斷題。由原文第六段The invading Germans decreed that anyo

52、ne who did not have a job would be sent to a work camp. At great risk, Nina refused to dance at the large theater that the Germans had taken-over Instead he joined a group of Polish dancers in a small, ill-equipped theater where they gave performances only for their own countrymen.可知，入侵的德國(guó)人下令，任何沒有工作

53、的人都將被送到勞改營(yíng)。冒著極大的危險(xiǎn)，Nina拒絕在德國(guó)人占領(lǐng)的大劇院里跳舞，而是加入了一群波蘭舞者，在一個(gè)設(shè)備簡(jiǎn)陋的小劇院里，只為自己的同胞表演。因此，本題正確答案為C項(xiàng)。4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)原文內(nèi)容可知，戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)給Nina的人生和舞蹈生涯都帶來了很大的打擊。她的家人在戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)中相繼被迫害，她自己也被送到了集中營(yíng)，但是她始終都保持著對(duì)舞蹈的熱愛和追求。A選項(xiàng)did not affect Ninas devotion to dancing“沒有影響Nina對(duì)舞蹈的熱愛”符合題意，故正確答案為A項(xiàng)。5.細(xì)節(jié)事實(shí)題。根據(jù)原文最后一段If people tell you that you cannot da

54、nce, do not believe them, for you can. But if they say that you are wonderful, do not believe them either for you must always improve. 可知， Nina的信條是不要相信別人對(duì)自己的否定，也不要滿足于別人對(duì)自己的贊揚(yáng)，人需要不斷提升自我。所以B項(xiàng)“她認(rèn)為自己仍然需要不斷地學(xué)習(xí)舞蹈，提高技藝”符合原文內(nèi)容，故本題正確答案為B項(xiàng)。23.單選題The Space Age_in October 1975 when the first artificial satellit
