解析:
1、首句提示Hitchcock是著名的电影制片人。
2、ever常用于先行词有最高级形容词所修饰的定语从句中,表示“曾经”。此处过去分词made作定语,相当于…which have ever been made. 3、与Hitchcock的职务相符。 4、指在英国外的全世界出了名。 5、好莱坞主动提出请他去制作电影。 6、cost表示“花费……(钱)”,需用物(事)做主语;spend作お“花费”解时,需要用人做主语;take一般不用于表示“花钱”;waste表示“浪费”,与文意不符。 7、表示在英国花这样的巨资制作电影是不可能的,下文进一步作了交代。 8、关系副词where引导一个非限制性定语从句。 9、此处泛指“许多其他电影从业人员”。 10、Hitchcock决定留在美国。 11、英国人称他为叛徒。 12、指无力反击英国人称他为叛徒这件事。 13、英国电影业倒闭,close down意为“关门”“停业”。 14、his即Hitchcock’s。 15、在此应用肯定式,also表示“也”的意思。 16、指Hitchcock是第一位电影制片人而成为电视明星。 17、a TV show即电视剧。 18、由上文推断,此处应是“想法”,故用“idea”。 19、这些电视剧给了他更多尝试新的见解的机会。其他三个选项与主旨无关。 20、上文已有交代。

It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 1 in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We’ve called for a (n) 2 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.”
Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 3 .
The doctor described the accident, which caused the burns. At 6 am, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers. When they 4 the charcoal (木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed (喷洒) too much gasoline (petrol). The flames 5 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to his head.
6 , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and rolled him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in 7 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars (伤疤). So, he had to return to college with scars.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch, very 8 scar on her arm. “Ann, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It doesn’t mean they won’t 9 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”
I 10 this wisdom (智慧) on to my son. He took my advice to 11 and returned to school with his head held high — glad he was alive.
By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not matter, so he made the 12 to give up any plastic surgery (外科手术).
We all have “scars” that 13 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.
But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same 14 standards(标准). Put your imperfections out of your 15 and concentrate (集中) on what you value within yourself, and your beauty will shine through.
