【解析】

试题分析:

1.本句句意应为“家人们挤满了演出大厅，大厅里充满了兴奋的情绪”，表示“充满、挤满”用filled。

2.根据上文语境可知我成为大家关注的中心。Attention 关注 pressure 压力 impression 印象 debate 争论。

3.最终，在几周的准备之后，我将通过舞蹈表演来展示我辛勤劳动的成果。show off显示，炫耀 take over 接管 look after 照看  give up 放弃。

4.根据后面的描述可知作者的这次表演失败了，所以本句句意应为“一切都应该是完美的--- 我是这样认为的。” reasonable表示“合乎情理的”；suitable表示“合适的，适宜的”；obvious 表示“明显的”； perfect表示“完美的”。D相符合逻辑。

5.. 本句描述了自己的穿戴，所以句意应为“我等在后台，穿着黑色的紧身衣，扎着金色的腰带。”表示“盛装打扮”用dress up，fold up 折叠；cover up 盖住；mix up混淆。

6.本句句意应为“典礼的主持人清晰地大声宣布下面表演的是我们班。”表示“宣布”用announced。

7.演出自然少不了观众，演员们要面对观众表演，所以本句句意应为“我们的舞蹈班成员在一个两英尺见方的箱子上做固定的动作，面向观众。”所以B项正确。

8.由语境“我保持微笑...”可知作者此时非常自得。本句句意应为“我的动作真的非常简单”，所以C项符合句意。

9.作者在本句中描述了出现失误前我的表演，本句句意应为“我脸上带着微笑，高昂着头，注意力如此集中以至于我没有看到我的脚伸向了哪里。”表示“保持某种状态”用keep，所以D项正确。contain表示“包含”; hide表示“躲藏”；share表示“分享”；keep表示“保持，保存”。

10.这里用where 引导状语从句表示地点：我只顾着笑对观众，却没有注意自己的脚下。

11.下文I slipped during a performance可知“我没踩上同伴的箱子，滑倒了。”所以使用slip。

12.自己的表演出现了失误，肯定非常尴尬，所以本题句意应为“我能够听到观众席上传来的咯咯笑声，我感到血冲上了脸。”应选择D项。

13.如果出错，但保持微笑可以使观众注意不到你的错误。leave离开；cheer欢呼；believe相信，均不符合题意。

14.下文as I continued with the routine可知我努力按老师说的做。follow one’s advice, 按某人说的做。

15.根据作者的描述可知，作者本来是想要表现一下的，结果却出现了失误，所以自己的希望落空了，因此本句句意应为“当幕布落下，我的希望也落空了。”故A项符合语境。

16.由后文的tasting the salt from the tears可知作者哭了起来，所以本句句意应为“我哭了起来”，故D项正确。

17.上文I sobbed bitterly可知在当时的情境下，自然没有人能一下子使她情绪稳定下来，所以应该用calm down表示“使……平静“。turn down 拒绝 let down 失望 put down放下。

18.从最后一段I finished the routine with a smile on my face可知我依然按要求完成舞蹈动作，并没有因失误而半途而废。事情过去这么多年后，作者能够回过头来重新审视自己，所以本句句意应为“近来我认识到那天晚上我就是一个明星。”所以B项符合语境。

19.根据前面的叙述可知作者当时的失误使得自己非常尴尬，所以本句句意应为“我当时很尴尬，但是我克制住了自己冲出舞台的冲动。”所以B项符合句意。

20.分析上下文逻辑可知，此处表示我没有走掉而是坚持到演完，所以本句句意应为“相反地，我脸上带着微笑完成了动作。” instead : 替代关系，进一步说明之意， however: 仅表示转折关系。
