本篇解析自考英語《英語閱讀（一）》第14單元（unit14）第27篇課文的課後題《米勒劇院和米勒創意》的答案。
1.答案是C
題面： Miller can give the full play to the techniques of the modern theater becuse he can______.
[C]項答案為： [C] arrange for lighting and sound to appear at the appropreate time(安排燈光和聲音在適當的時間出現)
原文相關文字 ： Miller uses the techniques of the modern theatre to the full. He is not satisfied with simply employing the devices of lights and sound as an addition to the acting, but indicates in the stage directions of his plays precisely when a particular form of lighting or piece of sound is to be used. This is a deliberate attempt to make the theatre as a whole, not merely the actors, express the messages of the play. Mechanical devices assume, then, a symbolic significance——they represent an essential meaning or idea in the play in physical terms. They express a meaning——hence the term "expressionist(表現派劇作家)" is often used to describe Miller as a dramatist(劇作家).
分析： 原文中黑體字句子意思是，“而是在他的戲劇的舞臺導演上精確地指示何時使用特定形式的照明或聲音”。而[C]項句子所表達的是同一個意思。
2.答案是D
題面：One feature about American society that Miller highlights(強調) in his plays is that _________.
[D]項答案為： [D] the land is abundant with chances.
原文相關文字 ： The American Dream is a combination of beliefs in the unity of the family, the healthiness of competition in society, the need for success and money, and the view that America is the great land in which free opportunity for all exists.......
America was a land of opportunity.分析： 原文中黑體字句子的意思是，“美國是一個充滿機遇的國家”。而[D]項句子的意思是，“這個國家充滿機遇”。兩者相符。
3.答案是B
題面： To achieve success in America, one must ___________.
[B]:have a large amount of wealth at his disposal.(擁有大量個人財富)(at his disposal由自己處置)
原文相關文字 ： To become successful in the American Dream means to believe in competition, to reach the top as quickly as possible by proving oneself better than others. Success is judged by the amount of wealth which can be acquired by an individual(成功是由個人所能獲得的財富來判斷的).
分析： 原文中黑體字句子的意思是，“成功是由個人所能獲得的財富來判斷的”。而[B]項句子意思是，“（要在美國獲得成功，一個人必須）擁有大量的個人財富”。兩者相符。
4.答案是D
