   How do actors and actresses memorize hundreds of lines? Memorizing lines takes practice and constant repetition. However, there are a few ways to make the memorization process run smoothly and quickly.
【小题1】
For most performers, there is no quicker way of memorizing lines. To learn lines, an actor must recite the play loud over and over again. Most rehearsals(排练) encourage this by running through the lines or having a"read-through". By the time the opening night arrives, most actors have spoken their lines hundreds of times.
Listen to your cast members
Sometimes inexperienced actors spend rehearsals looking at fellow performers, waiting patiently to say their next line. 【小题2】. This will help the actors learn their lines better because the context of the dialogue is absorbing.

【小题3】

Because there is often not enough rehearsal time, many performers find ways to listen to the play's dialogue during everyday activities. They use a tape recorder or an MP3 player to listen to the lines from each relevant scene. Some actors prefer to record the lines of all the characters, including their own lines. 【小题4】. Others like recording the lines of fellow cast members, and they leave a blank space so that they can insert their dialogue while listening to the recording.
Think positively and don't panic
Most actors will experience stage fright before the opening night. Actors forget lines now and then. When it happens, however, most of the time the audience never notice. If you forget a line in the middle of your performance, don't freeze. Stay in character. Keep the scene going to the best of your ability. If unfortunately you forget a line once, you will probably never forget that line ever again. 【小题5】.
A.Record your lines
B.Practice makes perfect
C.Read lines loud and repeat them
D.Remember the lines in a short time
E.Sometimes embarrassment is the toughest method of memorization
F.Then, they not only listen carefully, but they also speak all of the lines
G.Instead, they should be listening carefully, responding in character at all times

   If you're the kind of person who loves travel but finds it difficult to break down language barriers,you may want to check out ICONSPEAK,a T-shirt covered in basic pictographs(图画文字)ranging from clocks to bathrooms. Simply point to the symbol associated with your need,and hopefully,the person you're talking to will understand you soon. I can tell you that it's better than having to make gestures to strangers.

ICONSPEAK is the brainchild of friends George and Florian. They were traveling through Asia in 2013 and found themselves in a remote(偏远的)village with no vehicle,no tourism,and just some locals. The problems they had while trying to express their needs to the locals inspired them to start working on a simple yet effective solution to the language gap. Two years later,they came up with the ICONSPEAK T-shirt.“In the furthest and deepest corners of our world we were repeatedly left with no words,either in breathtaking awe(赞叹)due to the scenery or in empty silence due to our lacking linguistic talents,”its website states.“Such situations got us thinking about how to bridge language barriers with simplicity on a global level. The answer came to us after a remarkable experience in Vietnam: ICONs. Because with ICONs, you can SPEAK, and you can SPEAK to the world.”

The ICONSPEAK collection consists of three types of T-shirts — long, short, sleeveless — as well as large bags and hats that feature fewer icons. The products are available internationally through the website, with the founders attesting that they work anywhere in the world.“I have used it in Norway,”said George.“It works beautifully — the people you ask are surprisingly quick in getting what you want or mean since they are anyway thinking in a certain context. If you point to the bus and the clock on the shirt and you do this at a bus stop, anybody will know that you want to know when the next bus leaves.”

ICONSPEAK is a clear example that the answer to complex problems can be very simple. I have yet to try the shirt, but somehow I have no doubt that it actually works. It might not always help, but for common problems, like finding a telephone, the nearest hotel or an ATM, ICONSPEAK seems like a good solution.

【小题1】What should people do when they turn to the ICONSPEAK T-shirt for help?
A.Draw a picture on it.
B.Scan the pictographs on it by phone.
C.Point to the symbols on it.
D.Use the translation equipment built in it.
【小题2】What's Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A.How ICONSPEAK was born.
B.How ICONSPEAK was promoted to customers.
C.What concepts ICONSPEAK conveys.
D.What contributed to ICONSPEAK's popularity.
【小题3】What does the underlined word“attesting”in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Advertising.B.Proving.
C.Remembering.D.Deciding.
【小题4】What does the example of ICONSPEAK indicate?
A.Successful people tend to be creative.
B.Cultural differences deserve to be valued.
C.Traveling is the source of inspiration.
D.We may find easy solutions to the headache.
