Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Many people underestimate music education in the schools today.A new study showed,however,music education is extremely important.In college,music education is one of the largest programs.Teachers have to learn general education materials and techniques.They must learn to play every instrument;they must learn music history and music theory;they must learn instrument repair and teaching methodologies;they must learn conducting and so much more.At the same time,much of our culture and tradition is absorbed in music.Music plays a very important role in our education.Music helps with math and science.Students learn to count,keep a steady rhythm,and how to multiply and divide.They even learn a little bit of algebra(代数).Students also use science to discover what sounds good together and what does not.Students also need science to understand something called the “overtone series”,which is about how music is produced by vibration(颤动)and why.Students learn a lot about languages through music.Many songs are written in other languages,including ancient ones.Students must learn to translate these works to understand what they are singing about.A song is likely to be a famous short work set to music;so students are exposed to that very often while singing.Students learn a huge amount of cooperation of body parts through music,so parts of the body can work better together.Students must use motor(肌肉运动的)skills in order to play an instrument.Singers and wind(管乐器)players must learn breath control and be in good shape to play.Students learn about art.Some famous pieces were written about important pieces of art,and students learn about the artists and styles as they’re playing the music.Music education also brings higher thinking to our children.It allows them to think about complex patterns.It almost leads to a philosophical environment.Students have to be absolutely aware of what every other musician does at every time.In that way,it develops cooperation,as well.They tend to develop more capability for learning.As one can see,music is very important to education.1.As to the benefits from music,which of the following is NOT included in the paage? A.Relaxation.B.Language study.C.Calculation.D.Cooperation of body parts.答案 A 解析 细节理解题。文章第四段提到C项是音乐的益处;第五段提到B、D两项也是音乐的益处。文中没有提到音乐能使人放松这一好处。
2.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the paage? A.Science and music are against each other.B.Music is good to our allround development.C.Only the wisest person can learn music well.D.All of us know the importance of music clearly.答案 B 解析 细节理解题。根据文章第四至八段所讲内容可知,音乐对促进人的全面发展有很大帮助。
3.The last paragraph serves to.A.let everyone discu B.introduce another topic C.summarize the whole paage D.explain the purpose of writing the paage 答案 C 解析 推理判断题。文章开头提出论点,音乐教育尤为重要,接着又提出为什么音乐教育非常重要,最后总结全文,得出论点。
4.What is the best title of the paage? A.Music and Education B.An Introduction to Music Education C.The Importance of Music Education D.Abilities Required for Music Education 答案 C 解析 标题归纳题。该篇文章主要介绍了音乐教育的重要性,故C项作为题目最佳。
B
There is a world of difference between a horror movie and a comedy—the former scares you to half death while the latter leaves you rolling on the floor with laughter.But try watching them without the background music.You just decide they’re not so different after all.Music and movies have been intertwined since the dawn of motion picture,even before the voices of actors were recorded.In movies,music helps to provide a sense of time and place,convey ideas about the characters and,most importantly,draw emotions out of the audience.Studies have long shown that our heart rates and anxiety levels rise and fall depending on the speeds of the music we hear.Film composers armed with this knowledge will use strong changes in music speed to arouse fear among audiences.Slowing the speed of the music will create the opposite effect,bringing about a sense of inner peace.The use of dionant(不协调的)tones and noises is another technique that heightens tensions.Humans will naturally become uneasy when we hear dionant sounds because such noises are typically aociated with danger,like those that animals make to warn against predators(捕食者).As a result,countle horror movies soundtracks use instrument combinations like double baes and high,screeching(尖刺的)violins.As vital as it is,the best film music is subtle(巧妙的).All that audiences are supposed to feel is a heightened sense of emotion—they shouldn’t realize what has caused it.Only when the music is taken out of the film should audiences understand its effects.In keeping with this principle,some film makers are even using what’s called “infrasound(次声波)” to bring about fear.While we may not be able to hear it because its frequency is below that range of the human ear,infrasound has been proven to cause anxiety,shivering(颤抖)and even sorrow.For example,infrasound was used in the soundtrack of the 2007 horror movie Paranormal Activity,and audiences reported extremely high fear levels despite the lack of action throughout the movie.“It doesn’t affect everyone equally,” said British science writer Philip Ball,but he predicted that “we all see more of it in movies in the future”. 5.What is the article mainly about? A.The differences between horror movies and comedies.B.The fearful effect of adding infrasound in movies.C.How filmmakers employ music to affect our emotions? D.Why is it important to use background music in a movie? 答案 C 解析 主旨大意题。文章开头总写电影和音乐的密切关系,音乐对电影影响重大,接着用大篇幅描写电影制作者怎样利用音乐来渲染气氛,第四段中的“dionant(不协调的)tones and noises”以及第六段中的“infrasound”是提示词。所以答案是C。
6.The underlined word in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “ ”. A.well prepared B.partly separated C.changed gradually D.closely linked 答案 D 解析 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“In movies,music helps to provide a sense of time and place,convey ideas about the characters and,most importantly,draw emotions out of the audience.”可知音乐为电影提供时间和地点场景,传达人物感情,最重要是调动观众的情绪。由此判断intertwine 是”紧密联系”的意思。7.To arouse fear among audiences,film soundtracks.A.carry odd and loud music inside B.apply inharmonious sounds and noises C.slow down the speed of music D.use instrument combinations like violins and pianos 答案 B 解析 细节理解题。通过第四段的 “The use of dionant(不协调的)tones and noises is another technique that heighten tensions.Humans will naturally become uneasy when we hear dionant sounds...”可知,刺耳的噪音可以引起观众的恐惧。8.According to the article,infrasound.A.is not easy for the audience to notice B.makes the audience at peace C.has the same effect on audiences D.is used to make up for the lack of action in movies 答案 A 解析 细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句“While we may not be able to hear it because its frequency is below that range of the human ear,infrasound has been proven to cause anxiety,shivering(颤抖)and even sorrow.”可知,次声波可能不会被听到,因为它的频率低于人的听力范围。Ⅱ.完形填空
Every Saturday and Sunday morning,my father would throw his bike in the trunk of his car and explore new areas to ride.I was always 9 by this.What satisfaction did his bike provide him?It’s 10 a bike,right? That all 11 when I started riding my bike in our garage,which hadn’t been touched for nearly three years.I had been annoying my parents to help me 12 a bike for college.Scared but 13,I decided to try riding it.I mean,wasn’t it supposed to be 14 ?Alas,it was not.15,I spent five or ten minutes riding around,doing small turns or practicing shifting gears(换挡).Then I practised in the street.The greatest moment of it all is 16 my father was there with me,every step of the way.He ran up and down the street making sure my
wasn’t due to a negative result.I’ll never forget those moments.Who says 18 with your parents end before college? Then,college came.The look on my father’s face was 19 when he showed me how to lock my bike.Over various methods of communication,my father 20 ask,“Did you ride your bike today?” 21,for almost two months,my answer was no.Why?I was hesitant(迟疑的). 22 was not on my schedule.But then,with a kick of confidence,I 23 my bike in September.All I kept thinking was that my father and mother would be 24 of me!Even if it was doing something as small as riding my bike!Now,all I want to do is ride my bike!There are 25 no words to describe the rush you get while riding your bike.To
myself,I set goals.It feels unbelievable to know that you hit your goals.The next time you are 27 with emotions,ride a bike.The best part of my cycling experience is that 28 you fall,you pick yourself back up.It’s as simple as that.9.A.inspired B.confused C.embarraed D.upset 答案 B 解析 根据后文的“What satisfaction did his bike provide him?”可知,此处是指作者对父亲的做法感到疑惑不解。confused adj.困惑的。10.A.merely B.actually C.exactly D.probably 答案 A 解析 它仅仅是辆自行车。merely仅仅,不过,符合语境。11.A.improved B.arose C.worked D.changed 答案 D 解析 当作者自己骑上自行车时,那些对父亲骑自行车的看法完全改变了。12.A.equip B.repair C.purchase D.ride 答案 C 解析 一直缠着父母(让他们)帮“我”买辆自行车,自己可以骑着去上大学。13.A.anxious B.curious C.serious D.cautious 答案 B 解析 根据后面的作者尝试骑自行车,可见尽管作者害怕但还是充满“好奇”。14.A.easy B.boring C.dangerous D.awkward 答案 A 解析 作者用反问句来表示骑自行车是一件很容易的事。15.A.In fact B.At last C.In all D.At first 答案 D 解析 根据下文的then可知此处是指作者“刚开始”骑自行车的经历。16.A.where B.what C.when D.whether 答案 C 解析 骑自行车最棒的时刻就是“当父亲在那里陪着自己的时候”。17.A.screaming B.laughing C.talking D.whispering 答案 A 解析 根据上文可知作者第一次骑车既害怕又好奇,因此在遇到危险时会发出“尖叫声”。18.A.conflicts B.memories C.talks D.holidays 答案 B 解析 根据前文可知这是难忘的时刻,因此此处表示“谁说跟父母共同的回忆在大学前就结束了?”
19.A.annoyed B.strange C.pricele D.determined 答案 C 解析 看见爸爸教“我”锁车的表情很有意思。pricele非常有趣的。20.A.could B.must C.should D.would 答案 D 解析 根据上文的“Over various methods of communication...”可知,经过各种方式的交流,父亲总是问“我”:“今天你骑自行车上学么?” would表示“过去常常„„”。21.A.Unfortunately B.Occasionally C.Generally D.Happily 答案 A 解析 因为作者的回答是no,因此该处是指“不幸地”。22.A.Traveling B.Failing C.Shopping D.Driving 答案 B 解析 根据下文中“我”鼓起勇气骑自行车上学可知,此处指失败不是“我”的性格。23.A.put away B.picked up C.searched for D.got on 答案 D 解析 鼓起勇气,我“骑上”自行车。24.A.ashamed B.tired C.proud D.nervous 答案 C 解析 即使像骑自行车这样的小事,“我”觉得父母也会以“我”而自豪。be proud of以„„而自豪。
25.A.absolutely B.occasionally C.frequently D.eventually 答案 A 解析 现在“我”想做的就是骑自行车,因此绝对没有任何词语来描述自己骑车时的感受。26.A.persuade B.enjoy C.protect D.challenge 答案 D 解析 根据“I set goals.”可知,为了挑战自己,“我”制定了目标。27.A.impreed B.choked C.bored D.moved 答案 B 解析 下次,当情绪不好时,可以骑自行车。be choked with因„„而窒息。28.A.because B.though C.once D.unle 答案 C 解析 从骑自行车的经历中“我”学会:一旦你跌倒,你可以自己站起来。就是这么简单。Ⅲ.语法填空
