[2024·河南洛阳统考二]One winter, my cousin and I were playing toy blocks
in the yard. My mom was out for shopping to get groceries and my dad was asleep upstairs in his room.
Suddenly, it started to snow. First it was just a little. But then it started to pour heavily.
Then, we put the finishing touches to our blocks and headed back inside. Right when I opened the sliding glass door, my cousin fell down on the slippery wooden stairs.
I let go of the door, my worst mistake, you see. The door locks automatically but I had put a rock, right next to the door so it wouldn't close. But while I was running to my cousin's aid I'd accidentally kicked the rock.
Now, my cousin and I were locked outside. And unfortunately it started to get really windy. It was really freezing with the snow. First we started to call my dad,but
he
was
sleeping
soundly.
I
mean
sleepthroughatornado soundly. It was of no use.
Then I tried to climb over the fence but it didn't work because the fence was iced by snow and wind, and
the fence is six feet high. So, I climbed up to my tree house and brainstormed some ideas on ways to get out. At
one point, I was seriously considering jumping out of the
tree house and use the trampoline (蹦床) to jump over the
fence.
So, we got to work. First, I took out the trampoline.
Then I started to jump. First try—I almost cracked my head. Second try—this time I convinced my cousin to do
it but at the last second, he chickened_out. Third try—I jumped and missed but at the last second, my hand caught the fence, and with a lot of pushing I finally climbed over the fence and luckily, I fell on a big snow drift.
Finally, my mom came back. Then I got inside and unlocked the door for my cousin to get in. Then we shared this story to my mom and dad.

Hearing VoicesWould you like to be an actor, but aren't the right
age or physical type for the part? Don't give up： there
may be a place for you in the world of voiceacting.
Twentyyearold_Rickey_Collins_brings_Tucker_Foley_to_like_in_the_cartoon_Danny_Phantom. In addition to
many appearances on television and in movies, Rickey
is a voiceover actor, someone we hear but don't see.
Rickey has acted since he was 6, both on and off camera.
After school, his grandmothera manager and acting coachhelped him develop his skills by doing voice
exercises and reading aloud.
Voiceover actors do many kinds of acting. They are the voices of cartoon characters on television, in movies and video games, and for communicating toys. In films, they replace the foreign language conversation with English version. They create crowd noises, make commercials, act in radio plays, and record telephone instructions and public announcements. They read books on tape and even record museum tours.
Like other actors, voiceover actors need to understand scripts, interpret characters, and breathe correctly. They have to master voice techniques，such as pacing, volume, and range. Sometimes they use their normal voices; other times they change their voices to create different characters or noises. Rickey receives his
Danny Phantom scripts only a few days before he tapes
each episode (集). He writes helpful notes on the script to guide himself on speaking his part.
Rickey practices, then tapes at the recording studio.
He and the other cast members sit in a soundproof booth, acting out their characters as they read their lines into the microphones. “The cartoon gets created after we record
the words, so we have to imagine everything in our
mind，” says Rickey. Later, the recorded words, music,
and sound effects are combined with the cartoon art to
create the cartoon we enjoy on TV. Sound interesting?
Maybe you can have a “voice” in acting after all！
本文讲述了主人公Rickey担任配音演员的故事。
5．The sentence underlined in Paragraph 2 means________.
A．Rickey draws the character
B．Rickey names Tucker Foley
C．Rickey makes the character seem real
D．Rickey decides the future of Tucker Foley
答案：C 考查句意猜测。回归本句所在的文中第二段内容可知Rickey的配音工作使得卡通中的人物Tucker Foley活灵活现。
6．From the passage we can infer that________.
A．it's very complex to become a cartoon film
