B
I'll always remember the first time I tried ballet. My mother was a dancer and I wanted to be like her, but after making many mistakes during my first class, I felt like I wanted to give up right away. However, because it was only my first day, I told my mum I couldn't wait to dance again.
Several weeks passed and my dancing didn't get any better. Then my dance teacher told us that we were going to perform in a show. I was afraid of falling on my face in front of hundreds of people and made my mum sad.
I practised hard for the show, but I still didn't get the hang of it. Finally, I went to my mum to tell her how I felt. She just laughed and told me she would teach me all she knew about ballet. My mum quickly found out how bad at ballet I was, but she still taught me with the greatest patience, love and understanding. When I jumped and fell, she was there to catch me. When I lost my balance, she held me up. By the time the show arrived, I was as prepared as I could be.
The music began and my heart started to beat quickly. Breathing calmly, I began moving to the music without missing a step. When the music stopped, I ran off the stage and laughed with excitement.
My mum found me and gave me a huge hug, telling me how proud she was. I looked my mum in the eye and told her that there was no way this could have happened without her. Through this, I knew one important fact: My mum will always be there to catch me if I fall.

答案：4. D 【点拨】根据文章“... after making many mistakes during my first class, I felt like I wanted to give up right away. However... I told my mum I couldn't wait to dance again”可知，作者第一天因犯错想放弃，却对母亲撒谎说期待下次跳舞。故选 D。

6. A 【点拨】根据文章第二段“Then my dance teacher told us that we were going to perform in a show. I was afraid...”、第三段“By the time the show arrived, I was as prepared as I could be.”和第四段“The music began and my heart started to beat quickly... When the music stopped, I ran off the stage and laughed with excitement.”可知，作者的情感变化为：害怕→准备充分→紧张→兴奋。故选 A。
7. A 【点拨】根据文章结尾“My mum will always be there to catch me if I fall.”可知，母亲的支持是核心主题。故选 A。

### B
我会永远记得我第一次尝试芭蕾舞的情景。我的妈妈曾是一名舞者，我想要像她一样，但在第一节课上犯了很多错误后，我感觉自己立刻就想放弃了。然而，因为这只是我上课的第一天，我告诉妈妈我迫不及待地想再跳舞了。
几周过去了，我的舞技并没有变得更好。然后我的舞蹈老师告诉我们，我们要在一场演出中表演。我害怕在几百人面前出丑，也害怕让妈妈伤心。
我为这场演出刻苦练习，但我仍然没有掌握诀窍。最后，我去找妈妈，告诉她我的感受。她只是笑了笑，告诉我她会把她所知道的关于芭蕾舞的一切都教给我。妈妈很快就发现我的芭蕾舞跳得有多差，但她仍然以最大的耐心、爱心和理解来教我。当我跳跃然后摔倒时，她会在那里接住我。当我失去平衡时，她会扶我起来。到演出的时候，我已经尽我所能做好了准备。
音乐响起，我的心开始快速跳动。我平静地呼吸着，开始随着音乐舞动，没有错过一个舞步。当音乐停止时，我跑下舞台，兴奋地笑了起来。
妈妈找到了我，给了我一个大大的拥抱，告诉我她有多骄傲。我看着妈妈的眼睛，告诉她如果没有她，这一切都不可能发生。通过这件事，我知道了一个重要的事实：如果我摔倒了，妈妈会一直在那里接住我。
