【解析】Michael是一个普通人,他喜欢自己在家里制作节目。一开始很少有人喜欢上他的节目,但是后来他的节目变得受欢迎了,他的名气也大了。但是Michael仍然有自己的梦想,他还会为这个梦想继续努力。
【1】句意:在他14岁的时候,他买了一些录影机,并请求当地的电视台播放他的节目。radio 收音机;video视频;录像机;Internet因特网;television电视。根据文意可知,Michael自己制作了一个节目,再根据下文and his parents _____7_____ the video machines.可知,做这个节目需要有录像机,故应选B。
【2】句意:Michael联系了500个名人,但是其中只有三个同意上他的节目。forgot 忘记;refused拒绝;agreed同意;received收到。根据是上文contacted 500 famous people but only three of them…可知,一开始上Michael节目的客人很少,句中有表示转折的but,下句话提到However, now many wellknown people want to be on his show现在很多名人都想去他的节目。由此可知应选C,agree to do sth.同意做某事。
【3】句意:在2003年,《Michael Essany秀》这个节目是如此的受欢迎以至于E电视网就他的节目制作了一个节目。strange奇怪的;陌生的;popular流行的,受欢迎的;serious严肃的,严重的;bad糟糕的。根据上句话However, now many wellknown people want to be on his show. 和下句话that even the E! network made a show about his show!可知,Michael的节目现在变得很受欢迎。故应选B。
【4】句意:Michael的节目是从他家的起居室录制的。recorded 录制,记录;discovered发现;introduced介绍;played玩,打球。根据文意可知,Michael是制作节目的,因此这里应用“录制”这个词,故应选A。
【5】句意:在节目开始之前,他的父母去机场迎接客人,并使他们舒适。help out 帮助摆脱困境;look after照顾;pick up接某人;ask for请求,要求。根据空后the guests at the airport可知,这里是Michael的父母去机场迎接客人,故应选C。
【6】句意:节目进行的时候,Michael会讲一些笑话,采访客人们,他的父母来管理录影机。on 进行中;off 关闭;离开;up 向上;down向下。上句话是Before the show starts节目开始之前;下句话After Michael finishes the show是节目结束之后,由此我们可以知道这里叙述的是Michael制作节目的过程,因此这里应说“节目进行中”,故选A。
【7】句意:节目进行的时候,Michael会讲一些笑话,采访客人们,他的父母来管理录影机。mend修理;run 经营,管理;sell卖,销售;buy买。根据文意可知,这里讲述了Michael是如何制作节目的,Michael在节目中采访客人,那么只能是由他的父母来帮助他弄录像机,因此这里选B合适。
