　　答案与题解:

　　1. C 根据句意，每次骨折似乎总是发生在做运动时，应当选用动词 do 0 practise 表示“练习”， 后面应跟某一项具体的训练，而不是 sport，所以正确答案为 C。

　　2. A play the part of ...为固定搭配，意为“扮演一个......的角色”，其他三项均不合适。

　　3. D 联系上下文，根据句意，在影片制作过程中，所以应当用 during。

　　4. A 根据句意，Harrelson 在影片制作过程中不断地抱怨，而且后面的动词#plain 用的是ing 形式，因此动词 keep“连续，不断”最为恰当。continue 后加动词 ing 形式一般表示在停顿后重新开始、继续，carry 一般后面跟介词on ，表示“进行某项事务”，insist 表示“坚决主张”，不合句意，所以选 A。

　　5. C 联系上下文，因为是影片中的打斗场景，所以这里 scene 是正确答案。

　　6. B be keen on 为固定搭配，表示“对……感兴趣，对......热衷”，interest 后面配介词 in ，enthusiastic 后面配介词 of。

　　7. B 联系上下文，作者要表达的是最终他还是被他的搭档说服了，副词eventually 放在动词 persuade 之前，lastly 表示“最后一点，最后”，“at the end”一般放在段落的最后，表示最后怎么样。

　　8. C 根据句意，"当他意识到……是全心全意投人进来时，他开始后悔自己要打斗的决定"，显然是对手非常认真的对待这场打斗，所以 opponent 是正确答案。

　　9. D so... that ...固定搭配，太……以至于，根据句意，“Harrelson 如此狠地打在 Banderas 的脸上，以至于居然打破了 Banderas 的鼻子”，其他选项都不适合。

　　10. A 固定搭配 take a risk ，表示“冒险”。

　　11. B 联系上下文，根据句意，"他记起在他的故乡马拉加进行的一场足球比赛"，是因为鼻子骨折这件事促使他想起了故乡的那次比赛，remind 表示“提醒”，符合句意。remember 表示“自然想起，记起”不合句意。

　　12. C 根据句意和后面的介词of ，显然，“他一直梦想成为一个足球明星”，dream 是正确答案。 pretend 表示“假装”，后面眼介词 to，不合句意;look forward 表示叫“向往”，后面跟介词1 0 ，不合句意。

　　13. A 固定搭配 take up sth. ，表示“开始从事某事”，根据句意，作者要表达的是“我决定开始演戏”，因此 up 是正确答案。

　　14. D 联系上下文，作者显然把它看成是另外一种比赛，所以只有 another 符合句意。

　　15. B 词组 football pitch，表示"足球场"。前面由介词 on 引导，后面一定是场地，也就是足球场，而不是 match“比赛”。court 表示“网球场”，course 表示“跑道”，均不符合句意
