【解析】

这篇短文主要介绍了作者是个男孩喜欢跳舞，但是父母不支持他。他通过送妹妹学习舞蹈而偷偷学习。一次偶然的机会，他和妹妹舞台上的表演，征服了父亲，改变了父母以前的看法，获得了父母的支持。

【1】句意：但我从来没有放弃成为一名舞蹈明星的梦想。

kept up保持；gave up放弃；called up打电话；召集；brought up提出。根据前面My parents always told me that I couldn't dance，我的父母总是告诉我，我不会跳舞，可知这里应该是没有放弃梦想，故选B。

【2】句意：我从书、电影和表演中学习，偷偷练习。

loudly大声地；slowly慢地；safely安全地；secretly秘密地。根据上文My parents always told me that I couldn't dance，可知父母不支持我跳舞，所以这里 I practiced应该是偷偷练习，故选D。

【3】句意：然而，没有我父母的支持，这个梦想似乎是不可能实现的。

support支持；wish愿望； order命令； instruction指令。根据后面 that dream seemed impossible to achieve那个梦想似乎不可能实现可知，应该没有父母的支持，故选A。

【4】句意：多么好的学习舞蹈的机会啊！

result结果；chance机会；change改变；message消息。根据前面 I immediately offered to take her to the lessons.我立即提出要带她去上课，可知这对于作者是个好机会，他也能学习跳舞，故选B。

【5】句意：……因为班里没有男孩想这样做。

some一些；all全部；none没有人；several一些。根据后面They thought she was slow他们认为她很慢，应该是没有人想和她一起，故选C。

【6】句意：“你可以成为一名优秀的舞者！”我鼓励她。

encouraged鼓励；expected期望；accepted接受；influenced影响。根据前面You can be a good dancer!你可以成为一名优秀的舞者，应该是鼓励她，故选A。

【7】句意：当我看到我的父母在看比赛时，我变得紧张。

bored无聊的；nervous紧张的；relaxed放松的；lonely孤独的。根据后面I saw my parents watching the competition我看见我的父母在观看比赛。结合自己偷偷地练习可知，父母观看会让作者紧张，故选B。

【8】句意：从人群的欢呼中，我确信我们做得很好。

talking谈论；singing唱歌；dancing跳舞；cheering喝彩。根据后面 I was sure we had done a good job我确信我们做得很好，可知应该是喝彩声中，故选D。

【9】句意：干得好，孩子。我不得不说你是天生注定跳舞的。

late晚的；surprised惊奇的；born天生的；moved感动。根据 I have to say you are ...to dance.固定短语be born to do sth天生注定做某事，故选C。

【10】句意：实现梦想之前，每个人都必须经历很多困难。

if如果；unless除非；until直到；before在……之前。根据后面he achieves his dream在实现梦想前应该是有很多困难，故选D。
