阅读理解专项练习50-16 (C) My class will put on a short play in English at the end of the year. Yesterday our English teacher gave us copies of the play. Choose a character in the play whom youd like to be, she told us. This afternoon learn a few lines of this part for homework. Then tomorrow you can say those lines in front of the class. Ill decide who play each part. I wanted to have one of the bigger parts in the play, so I choose the part of the king. He has a lot of lines to say. I learned them by heart. This morning in our English lesson we had to say our lines. I acted the part of the king. When I said my lines, I put a lot of expression into my acting. I thought I acted really well. Everyone in the class read a part and then the teacher who would play each part. Many of the students in my class couldnt act at all. They couldnt even read without making lots of mistakes. I was sure that I would get a big part in the play. However, the teacher gave me the part of a soldier. He has only one line. It is, Yes, sir! I was very disappointed. At the end of the lesson I went up to her and asked her why I had such a small part. You put too much expression in your acting, she said. Good acting is not big acting. It is acting the audience can believe in. |
