【解析】

1.

解析　由句意可知，这位女舞蹈演员在很小的时候就接受舞蹈训练。故选C项。

2.2】　B

解析　由句意可知，因为在一次事故中失去了整个左臂，她在之后的几年当中陷入一种消沉沮丧的状态，depression沮丧，消沉，符合句意。

3.3】　C

解析　根据下文“...she started to do some of her old routines...”可知，她不能离开和忘记舞蹈。

4.4】　B

解析　根据下文“...could even make simple turns and spins without ____.”可知，在舞蹈中做出旋转动作需要身体保持平衡，因为她失去了一只胳膊而无法保持平衡。

5.5】　D

解析　因为失去胳膊，即使是简单的旋转，她也要练习一段时间才不致于失去平衡摔倒在地。

6.6】　A

解析　根据下文她决定去找这个男人可知，她应该是先听说了这个失去一条腿的男人。hear of听说，符合语境。

7.7】　D

解析　根据下文这个男人不愿意跳舞可知，她要说服他和她一起跳舞。

8.8】　B

解析　根据上文“He had never danced.And to dance with one leg...”可知，男士认为她在和自己开玩笑。

9.9】　B

解析　前面提到男士不同意跟她一起跳舞，之后又同意考虑，因此可知她一直没有放弃说服男士。

10.0】　A

解析　根据上文可知，这个男人完全不会跳舞，所以她要教他跳舞。

11.1】　A

解析　下面的内容提示因为男士没有舞蹈基础，所以他们在合作的时候会出现各种问题。根据下文中“...lost patience with him，he would walk out.”可推测，这一对组合分开过几次，所以选broke up解散，分开。

12.2】　D

解析　男士之前没有受过舞蹈培训，因此不知道如何在跳舞时控制自己的身体。

13.3】　C

解析　男士从没学过跳舞，自然不知道有关舞蹈的最基本的知识。

14.4】　B

解析　根据下文“...lost patience with him...”可知，她对男士的情况感到生气、恼火，所以选annoyed。

15.5】　B

解析　eventually在此强调尽管遇到了一些困难，他们最终还是走到一起开始训练。

16.6】　A

解析　他们能在大赛中获奖，在训练中肯定是非常认真的。

17.7】　D

解析　舞蹈指导的作用就是帮助舞蹈演员设计舞蹈动作。discover发现；arrange安排；perform表演，均与句意不符。

18.8】　C

解析　由句意可知，他能够在一条腿的支撑下做出俯身的动作。

19.9】　D

解析　因为把注意力集中在只有一条腿的男舞蹈演员身上，作者甚至都没有意识到女演员失去了一只胳膊。

20.20】　A

解析　前后是因果关系，故用because。
