far away for my dad and me. When it39。s warm at night, we39。re not driving along some dark streets in Indiana, but going at a slow speed with stars dimly shining. Both of us are thinking of them, without needing to say a word. All these visions of other universes have together created a private universe for my dad and me.

Thank those authors who have shared their visions。 the world and my family are better for it.

As someone who takes part in so many activities, it39。s extremely difficult to find the time to be a part of any production. For me, it was a onceinalifetime opportunity to try acting through the Senior Play Project. Auditions (試鏡)came first. They weren39。t particularly difficult, more to see who may be a better fit tor certain roles. We were told our roles in the various plays, and started to work immediately. I was unsure of how I was as an actor, and I had to learn a lot fast: actions, my place in the story, my reactions, and countless other small details... As I began to improve as an actor, I was able to understand my characters better. My first character is a man named Roger who is a senior advisor to a presidential candidate in a play called The Spot. He39。s a shorttempered guy who says what he wants and takes what he wants to assist his candidate in today39。s tough political races. He39。s on the set of The Spot, an advertisement for the candidate, to make sure everything runs smoothly and that any problems are dealt with quickly and efficiently. While I had really interesting characters, and the plays were funny and such a great experience to act in, I really love the Senior Play Project for the people. I worked with 12 other seniors who not only loved what they were doing, but offered help and advice throughout my entire learning process. Between the lights, sounds, costume and makeup, and plenty more, theatre is a team sport just like basketball or baseball. There are no small parts。 there is no one who isn39。t needed. I39。ve learned to appreciate live theatre, and the effort that every person in the show, both onstage and offstage, puts into it.(1)How did the author feel about being in the project?

A.He means what he says.B.He puts up an advertisement.C.He gives advice to the candidate.D.He is running for president.(3)What does the author like most about the project? A.The people.B.The plays.C.The characters.D.The costume.(4)What can be a suitable title for the text? A.The Senior Play Project.B.Acting for the First Time.C.What Makes a
