Many years ago I was on a bicycle trip through the beautiful countryside. Suddenly,dark clouds 1 overhead and rain began to fall, but several hundred yards 2 the sun shone brilliantly.

A
On Wednesday，January 13th，I performed on stage for the first time.As someone who takes part in so many activities，it’s extremely difficult to find the time to be a part of any production.For me，it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to try acting through the Senior Play Project.
Auditions(试镜) came first.They weren’t particularly difficult，more to see who may be a better fit for certain roles.We were told our roles in the various plays，and started to work immediately.
I was unsure of how I was as an actor，and I had to learn a lot fast: actions，my place in the story，my reactions，and countless other small details...As I began to improve as an actor，I was able to understand my characters better.
My first character is a man named Roger who is a senior advisor to a
presidential candidate in a play called“The Spot”．He’s a short­tempered guy who says what he wants and takes what he wants to assist his candidate in today’s tough political races.He’s on the set of The Spot，an advertisement for the candidate，to make sure everything runs smoothly and that any problems are dealt with quickly and efficiently.
While I had really interesting characters，and the plays were funny and such a great experience to act in，I really love the Senior Play Project for the people.I worked with 12 other seniors who not only loved what they were doing，but offered help and advice throughout my entire learning process.
Between the lights，sounds，costume and makeup，and plenty more，theatre is a team sport just like basketball or baseball.There are no small parts; there is no one who isn’t needed.I’ve learned to appreciate live theatre，and the effort that every person in the show，both onstage and offstage，puts into it.
1．How did the author feel about being in the Project?
A．Lucky. B．Tired.
C．Nervous. D．Confident.
2．What do we know about the character Roger?
A．He means what he says.
B．He puts up an advertisement.
C．He gives advice to the candidate.
D．He is running for president.
3．What does the author like most about the Project?
A．The people. B．The plays.
C．The characters. D．The costumes.
4．What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．The Senior Play Project
B．Acting for the First Time
C．What Makes a Good Actor
D．A Lesson Learnt Through Acting
B
It’s not easy feeling like you’re always under the spotlight being judged for each little mistake you make.Your mind is in an endless circle playing what you said and did over and over again.You wish you had a time capsule to go back and make things right if you find mistakes.You fear what others will think about you and that they will reject and dislike you.You seek to be socially perfect.
Academically，you work long endless hours just to make those excellent marks.Although most would say“it’s good to have high standards，”they have no idea about the internal hell you put yourself through to achieve perfection.If you come up less than your desired goal you feel as though you have failed，but you’re far from failing，you just don’t see it that way.So instead you are telling yourself that you’re stupid，and not smart.The pressure you place on yourself weighs you down and you wear the “not good enough” label each and every day.
You not only have high standards for yourself but you also have them for others.If people don’t perform up to your expectations，then you think them incompetent.This causes a lot of frustration because you can’t trust anyone to get things right.So instead of being a team player you fly solo (单飞) and try to do two or three jobs at once.Your unrealistic expectations cause you to criticize and judge others and that leads to problems in other areas of your life.
The attempt to be perfect is c alled perfectionism and it’s the unachievable American dream that’s damaging our emotional and mental health.We strive for perfection with our body，in our performance，and in our relationships.In a society that overstates mistakes，is it any wonder that so many young people attempt the impossible task of being perfect?
We all have flaws，fears，and make mistakes，and that’s perfectly OK.It’s our imperfections that make life interesting and they help us grow into a stronger more adaptable person.We don’t have to strive to achieve the impossible.We are designed to be perfectly imperfect.
5．What might be the most suitable title of the text?
A．Being Far from Failing
B．Being Perfectly Imperfect
C．Perfectionism Phenomenon
D．Unachievable American Dream
6．Which of the following is a perfectionist most likely to agree? A．Nobody is perfect.
B．Be generous with praise.
C．There is no best，only better.
D．A contented mind is an everlasting feast.
7．What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4? A．More and more people are tolerating mistakes.
B．The society is partly to blame for perfectionism.
C．Many young people find it impossible to be perfect.
D．It’s unusual for a society to seek perfectionism nowadays.
8．What does the author think of imperfection?
A．It’s part of our life.
B．It’s unbearable.
C．It deserves to be overcome.
D．It does harm to our mental health.
