问题     From her wheelchair, a child raises rounded arms above her head to
Form a blossoming flower. Nearby, a blind boy gently waves a flowing
scarf as his body sways back and forth. Welcome to Infinite Dreams, a
southern California program that each year helps more than 1,000
children with abilities learn ballet, jazz, and other forms of movement.            【S1】______.
For founder Zina Bethune, a professional dancer and actress who
works with a team of six instructors, this is a deeply feel mission.                【S2】______.
    "I’ve walked a very fine line. among the abled and disabled worlds all          【S3】______.
my life," says Bethune, a former soloist with the New York City Ballet
who starred on Broadway in Tommy Tune’s production of Grand
Hotel. Born and raised in New York City, Bethune, 47, started formal
ballet training at age 6 with legendary choreographer George
Balanchine. But during adolescence, a host of medical problems ruined
her chances of becoming a prima ballerina. But she ignored them —and
her pain —and continue to dance. Faced with all sorts of difficulties, she         【S4】______.

replacements.
    Bethune, who has been married for 18 years to a former dancer, started
Infinite Dreams in 1983. "Dance is spiritual," she says. "And these
children’s bodies are not disabled." Funded through grants and private              【S6】______.
donations, the group offers hour-long weekly sessions in schools and
performs at arts festivals throughout the year.
    "Participation, not perfect, is emphasized," notes Bethune, who is              【S7】______.

to the dance steps are made as needs. Russell Bartel, 14, a star student            【S8】______.

turning on his toes but by spinning on his back. "That we try to make               【S9】______.

    From that understanding often springs a newfound sense of confidence
"I can de a lot more than I ever thought I could," Bartel says. "It

选项
答案needs→needed
解析 as 结构所带来的后半句结构的简化使得句型分析的难度稍稍加大，我们可以首先把句子还原成复杂的完整形式，应该是Adjustments to the dance steps are made as they are needed，主句中的 adjustments…are made 和后面的they (adjustments)are needed 中的they are 这—结构是完全一样的，出于语言简洁的考虑，我们可以略去as 后面的they are，只剩下as needed 这样的表达。
