While acting may run in the family, it wasn’t Angelina Jolie’s only choice when she thought about her future career. Although Jolie has studied her craft since childhood, at one point the 26-year-old, who stars this month in Tomb Raider with her father, actor John Voight, wanted to be a funeral director. "I thought that the crossing over could be a beautiful thing and a time of comfort where people could reach out to each other."
Tradition appeals to Jolie, who moved with her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, and brother after her parents separated when she was two. "I never had one home. I never had an attic that had old stuff in it. We always moved, so I was never rooted anywhere. And I always dreamed of having that attic of things that I could go back and look at. And I’m very drawn to some things that are tradition, that are roots, and I think that may be why I focused on funerals."
Finally, she chose acting. "Following in my father’s footsteps," she says, "is an interesting thing, because I think we speak to each other through our work. You don’t really know your parents in a certain way, and they don’t really know you. So he can watch a film and see how I am as a woman, die way I’m dealing with a husband who’s been injured, or the way I’m crying alone."
"And it’s the same for me: I can watch films of his and just see who he is. I’ve learned to communicate with him as a person."
An attic is______.
选项
A、a small room
B、a collection of books
C、a small suitcase
D、an amount of money
答案
A
解析
本题为词义猜测题,需要根据上下文判断“attic”的词义。从第二段第二句起的内容如下,即“I never had one home.I never had an attic that had old stuff in it.We always moved,so I was never rooted anywhere.And I always dreamed of having that attic of things that I could go back and look at.(我从来没有一个家。我从来没有一个装有旧东西的阁楼。我们总是搬家,所以我从来没有扎根的地方。我一直梦想有一阁楼的东西可以回去看看。)”,我们可以据此推论, “attic”是一个可以装东西而且人还可以进去看的地方,因此A是正确的选项。
