She was still dancing on New York’s Broadway stages a half century later in 2015’s The Visit.”可知,作者提到这两部戏,是为了强调Rivera漫长的艺术生涯。故选B。 2.A 推理判断题。由文章第三段“‘I wouldn’t know what to do if I wasn’t moving or telling a story to you or singing a song,’ she said at the time. ‘That’s the spirit of my life, and I’m really so lucky to be able to do what I love, even at this time in my life.’”可知,艺术对她来说就是一切。故选A。 3.C 代词指代题。由文章第七段中“The second Tony was an especially sweet victory for the star.
