解析试题分析：文章讲述了Roberta在母亲的鼓励下，克服胆小害羞的弱点，成功地获得了扮演莎士比亚作品《威尼斯商人》中Portia这个角色。
【小题1】从下文“she was speaking with a power”判断出应选speak.
【小题2】从文章中看出，Roberta正在扮演莎士比亚“威尼斯商人”中的角色“Portia”。下文中也提到“In secret she practiced Portia’s part”。故选character(part角色)。
【小题3】从下文31空后Roberta “repeat the lines over and over”判断出“台词流利地从她口中说出”。故选C。
【小题4】紧接着上文“words flowing smoothly from her”,后面作者口气一转“事实上，在选拔试演之前她以前从来没有表演过”。at first起初; in fact事实上；after all毕竟，到底；in all共计，总共。
【小题5】根据下文以及她母亲说的话“You are just a bit scared. Everyone gets scared”得出“由于胆小/害怕，所以不愿意在众人面前表现”。
【小题6】见20题。shy害羞的；honest诚实的；polite礼貌的；patient耐心的
【小题7】本句意思为“她从来没有想到她有什么擅长的地方来吸引很多注意力。”attract attention吸引注意力；avoid attention避开注意；focus/pay attention 集中注意力于。
【小题8】由于“大部分时间自己呆着，结果朋友很少”，故选few,表示“很少，不多”。
【小题9】本句意思为“尽管她成绩很优秀，可是她总认为缺些什么.”,故选but表转折。
【小题10】从下文她母亲说的话“你只是有点害怕。你会成功的。”看出，母亲是在“鼓励”她。
【小题11】本句意思为“我想不出别的任何人更适合扮演这个角色。”play the part扮演角色
【小题12】本句意思为“她母亲不想就此搁下这事。”，因此选“matter”。
【小题13】can能够，会; must必需，一定; may可能; should应该。见25题。
【小题14】根据上文中的“scared”,可以断定选fear。
【小题15】于是“她读了这部戏，一想到要说那么多丰富的语言她就很激动。”idea想法；purpose目的；way方式；importance重要性
【小题16】通过“repeating the lines over and over”来“memorizing(记住)”台词。
【小题17】因为“喜欢”，才不难，故选loved.
【小题18】本句意思为“每次读，她都对这些台词有新的见解，好像莎士比亚从不同的层面写的Portia.”。故选D.。understanding理解，见解；description描述；selection选择；consideration考虑
【小题19】practise练习；plan计划；perform演出，表演；deliver移交，发表（演讲，讲话）。根据句意，“在试演的当天，Roberta为观众表演了两段Portia的著名演讲。”，而不是“发表了Portia的著名的演讲”。
【小题20】根据句意“演完后，俱乐部的主席宣布Portia这个角色是她的了。”，选part。
