His failure was not made public to prevent his         look from being seen.

A. embarrassing      B. pleased      C. embarrassed     D. pleasing

 

【答案】

C

【解析】

試題分析:考查形容詞用法。A令人尷尬的；B高興的，滿意的；C感到尷尬的；D令人滿意的。從句意可以判斷他對(duì)他的失敗感到很尷尬，所以用embarrassed修飾look，反映出內(nèi)心的情緒，故C選項(xiàng)正確。句意：為了避免他尷尬的表情被人看到，他沒有公開自己的失敗。

考點(diǎn)：考查非形容詞用法。

Here’s an unusual story: a diamond ring was recently found in an egg. The magician（魔術(shù)師）, Liu Qian, discovered it, in front of an audience of millions at CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala. Liu’s magic tricks have made the centuries old art of magic fashionable once again, and made him the hottest magician in China.
As a seasoned young magician from Taiwan, Liu is popular worldwide for his magic shows. Countries he has performed in include the United States, Japan, South Korea and the UK.
Witnessing something impossible happen right before your eyes is the root of people’s love for magic.
Liu is known for his interaction(互動(dòng)) with his audiences. He has a unique understanding of showmanship (演出技巧).
“It is actually thinking, rather than one’s manipulation(操作)skills, that is more important to achieving a successful magic show. We think carefully about how to design the shows creatively, to make them appear more intriguing(吸引人的),”Liu said.
Liu Qian’s success dates back to his childhood. Born in 1976 in Taiwan, he found himself attracted to a magic toy in a shop when he was seven years old. At the age of 12, he won Taiwan’s Youth Magic Contest, which was judged by the great American magician, David Copperfield.
Yet, Liu never planned on becoming a professional magician. He studied Japanese literature at university and only hoped to be an amateur（業(yè)余的） magician in his spare time. However, his failure to find a decent(體面的)job after graduation pushed him towards magic as a career.
To refine（升華） his performing skills, he has performed on streets, roads and fields, for pedestrians(路人), policemen and farmers.
“Street shows are the biggest challenge for us magicians. We have to deal with unexpected situations and tough crowds,” Liu said.
