A
It's not easy to grow up. Actually it's far from easy. Growing up can be a real "pain" for some of us. We are always doing things that someone else makes us do and aren't allowed to do all the things we like. Sometimes we feel trapped; sometimes we are fearful, and sometimes we just don't understand why we can't stay young forever. When we look back on all the hardships in life with a positive attitude, we realise that all of our growing pains actually turn into growing gains!
When I was a young girl, my parents forced my sisters and me to do so many things that we never liked. They made me learn to play the violin and then the piano. At that time I hated music, just because it was what they wanted me to do. But looking back now, I am so glad that my parents encouraged me to take music lessons. Music has enriched my life in so many ways. I realise that my parents and teachers were always pushing me ahead, not because they wanted me to suffer, but because they wanted me to succeed in life. They always want me to have a better life thiin they do.
Every moment in our lives is either living or dying, so live life to its fullest! We are all going to experience growing pains, but they are just small pains in life. They might seem so huge at the time but we must be strong. Think about how we would feel if we had no fear and lived a life like that. The future is ours!
A little hard work and sweat never hurt anyone! If we realise that these pains are just small bumps(凸块) on our road to success, we will realise that our growing pains are actually growing gains!
1.According to Paragraph 1, we learn that when we were young, _____.
A.life was full of joy B.life was easy for us
C.we knew we can stay young forever D.we sometimes can't do things we like
2.What does the underlined phrase "to its fullest" mean
A.Directly. B.Completely. C.Carefully. D.Terribly.
3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.Growing pains are necessary for us to grow up.
B.We don't have to experience growing pains.
C.A little hard work and sweat is harmful to us.
D.Life without fear is a better choice for us.

Some of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO (United Nations Educational. Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying (联合) voice across cultures.
Despite the celebrations, though, in the U. S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.
It's Jason Moran's job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center s artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible,and preserve its history and culture.
"Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite." Moran tells National Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. "What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and white anymore. It's actually color, and it's, actually digital."
Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. "The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move,because the way the world works is not the same," says Moran.
Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party. "Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music." says Moran. "For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion (情感) lie Are we, as humans, gaining any insight (感悟) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context." says Moran. "so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster."
1.Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day
A.To remember the birth of jazz. B.To protect cultural diversity.
C.To encourage people to study music. D.To recognize the value of jazz.
2.What does the underlined word "that" in paragraph 3 refer to
A.Jazz becoming more accessible. B.The production of jazz growing faster.
C.Jazz being less popular with the young. D.The jazz audience becoming larger.
3.What can we infer about Moran's opinion on jazz
A.It will disappear gradually. B.It remains black and white.
C.It should keep up with the times. D.It changes every 50 years.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.Exploring the Future of Jazz. B.The Rise and Fall of Jazz.
C.The Story of a Jazz Musician. D.Celebrating the Jazz Day.

Can you imagine a world without music Studies show that public schools across the country are cutting back on music classes to save money. Worse, some schools have never had music classes to begin with. But without them, students' academic growth and emotional health could suffer. In fact, music classes are necessary for all students in schools.
Recent studies by Brown University have shown that students who received music education classes were better in maths and reading skills than those without music classes. Another study by The College Board found that students taking music and art classes got higher points. Students' academic success seems to depend on their taking part in music education.
Music programmes in public schools also help to add to a student’s sense of pride and self-confidence. Teens today have too many learning tasks. Besides, they have family problems, self-confidence problems, relationship troubles, and other. All of these can stop academic success, but music education can help. A study by the Texas Commission on Alcohol and Drug Abuse found that students who took part in school music programmes were less likely to turn to drugs. Music programmes encourage students to work together to produce an excellent performance.
Music crosses language, class, cultural and political boundaries(界限). Music allows students from different countries to connect. For example, at a school talent show, a new Japanese student played a piano duet (二重奏) with an American classmate. Although they could not communicate verbally(口头上), they were able to read the music in order to play the duet. Two students from different cultures worked as a team with self-confidence and common purpose through music.
The gift of music is priceless. We need to be sure to have necessary music classes for all students. The world is losing its music, and putting music into schools is the first step to get it back.
1.What can we learn about education with music classes
A.It allows schools to make more profits.
B.It leads to a lot of emotional problems easily.
C.It helps students to improve their schoolwork.
D.It has a great influence on the culture of the country.
2.What do the two studies seem to show
A.Not all students take part in music lessons.
B.Students with great success like to attend music lessons.
C.Music plays an important role in students' success.
D.Students having music classes are better in all lessons.
3.The example in Paragraph 4 mainly suggests that _______.
A.different cultures have different styles of music
B.music makes cross-country communication possible
C.Japan has a good international relationship with America
D.Japanese and American students are good at playing the piano
4.What is the best title for the text
A.How to Get Music Back B.Music Education in Schools
C.Music—a Bridge to Understanding D.The Importance of Listening to Music

第二节 （满分25分）
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的短文。
Want to know how to survive a plane crash What about a terrorist attack To put your mind at ease in nearly any situation, you can almost guarantee your survival if you never leave the house without 3 necessary items: a lighter (打火机), a lifestraw (救命吸管) and a raincoat.
Right off the place full of danger, your first instinct (本能) might be to search for help the minute you realize you're in trouble. But survival experts insist you should stay where you are until help finds you, instead; doing so will make it easier for the search and rescue teams to locate your location.
What should you do until then, you ask "Prepare to hunker down (盘腿坐下) for the long run. That’s where your three pieces of survival necessities come into play," Stewart says.
For one, you should have something to start a fire on you at all times. Fire-starting tools are inexpensive to purchase, and you can easily carry them around in a backpack or pant pocket. But even without a fancy item, all you really need is something to light the first flame.
"You can use cotton balls covered in petroleum jelly (凡士林油) as a fire starter," Stewart said. "They are water resistant and will start a fire with just a spark." Second, you’ll need something to make your drinking water fit to drink, such as a canteen (饭盒) that can boil water. Stewart recommends buying a $ 20 lifestraw, which "can be struck into the muddiest pool of water you can find and you suck the water out like a straw." Any doubt It could still save your life, Stewart says.
注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；
3. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头词或句子已为你写好；
4. 续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。
Paragraph 1:
"I always say that your life depends on your water source," he said.
Paragraph 2:
You can keep all three items with you when you are away from your home.
答案以及解析
第一部分 阅读理解
第一节
A
答案：1-3 DBA
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的We are always doing things that someone else makes us do and aren't allowed to do all the things we like.可知, 我们小的时候有时不能做自己喜欢的事情。故选D项。
2.词义猜测题。根据第三段中的Every moment in our lives is either living or dying可知, 作者认为, 生命中的时时刻刻都是非生即死的状态, 所以我们应该把活着的时光利用到极致。故选B项。
3.推理判断题。根据文章最后一句If we realise that these pains are just small bumps on our road to success, we will realise that our growing pains are actually growing gains!可知, 作者认为在成长的道路上, 痛苦并不会阻止我们成功, 而会让我们收获更多, 故经历痛苦是成长的必经过程。故选A项。
B

解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段第二句UNESCO…set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying voice across cultures.可知,联合国教科文组织设立国际爵士乐日,目的是提升人们对爵士乐、爵士乐的意义和爵士乐的潜力的认识,也就是为了提高对爵士乐价值的认识。故选D项。
2.词义猜测题。根据上下文可知,贾森 莫兰的工作是改变爵士乐的现状,此处的that应指上一段的内容:虽然有一些庆祝活动,但是在美国,爵士乐的听众持续减少且呈现老龄化趋势,与年轻一代脱离了联系。由此可知爵士乐不太受年轻人欢迎。故选C项。
3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段莫兰所说的话“如今爵士乐不能用1908年或1958年的方式来呈现。因为世界的运转方式不一样了,所以爵士乐必须继续前进”,可以推断出,莫兰认为爵士乐应该与时俱进。故选C项。
4.主旨大意题。前两段引出话题并陈述现状;中间两段讲述莫兰的工作目的是改变爵士乐的现状,希望将来有更多的年轻人会喜欢爵士乐;最后两段指出爵士乐的问题和莫兰坚持的态度。所以“探索爵士乐的未来”是合适的标题。故选A项。

2.根据第二段Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations此处that指代上一句爵士乐在年轻一代不受欢迎,所以此处C项“爵士乐不太受年轻人欢迎”,符合题意。故正确答案为C。
3.根据第五段The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same可知Moran认为爵士乐要与时俱进,C项意为“跟上时代的步伐”符合题意。故正确答案为C。
4.本文主要讲, UNESCO将4月30日定为国际爵士乐节,让人们意识到爵士乐的意义与价值,以及改善爵士乐不受年轻人的欢迎的处境,探索爵士乐的未来。A项,“探索爵士乐的未来”符合题意。故正确答案为A。
全文翻译
最近世界上一些最著名的音乐家聚集在巴黎和新奥尔良,庆祝首个年度闰际爵士乐日。联合国教科文组织最近将4月30日设为世界爵士乐日,是为了提高公众对爵士乐的认识、了解爵士乐的重要性以及其作为跨文化联合愿望的潜力。
尽管举行了庆祝活动,但是在美国爵士乐的观众却不断地在减少并逐渐老年化,同时爵士乐已无法与年轻一代联系起来。
杰森 摩伦的工作就是要帮助改变这一现状。作为肯尼迪中心爵士乐的艺术顾问,摩伦希望扩大爵士乐的受众,使爵士乐更易被接受,并保留其历史和文化。
“爵士乐似乎并不受美国人青睐,”摩伦对国家公共电台的记者尼尔 柯南说道,“我希望能做到的是,这一代人和更年轻的人开始重新思考并理解爵士乐不再只是黑白音乐,它实际上是多彩的,是数字化的。”
摩伦说,当今爵士乐的一个问题就是它失去了音乐的娱乐性。“现在的爵士乐不能再像1908年或 1958年那样呈现,它必须继续发展,因为世界运转的方式不一样了。”摩伦说。
去年,摩伦做过一个项目,该项目把胖子沃勒的音乐作为舞会音乐。“只是为了想起沃勒的音乐既可作为音乐会乐曲也可是舞蹈音乐,”摩伦说。 “对我来说,这是语境重构的过程。音乐中的情感在哪里 作为人类,我们是不是在怎样谈论自己的过程中以及在像查理 帕克的音乐那类抽象的事物怎样让我们谈论感情和思想中获得某些感悟呢 有时候我们看不到音乐有更广的背景,”摩伦补充道,“所以我想继续这些对话,那些都是我想要培养的。”
D
答案：1-4.CCBB
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But without them, students' academic growth and emotional health could suffer”和第二段的内容可知,音乐课对学生的学业发展有促进的作用。故选C项。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句可知,音乐对学生的学术成功起着重要的作用。故选C项。
3.推理判断题。根据第四段第一句可知,第四段举例说明音乐无国界,能让不同国家的人交流。故选B项。
4.标题归纳题。本文主要论述了学校里缺乏音乐课对学生的影响和开设音乐课的意义。因此,最佳标题应是“Music education in Schools”。故选B项。
第二节
答案：①-⑤ BDAFE
解析： ①根据该空后一句We dance from Florida to Alaska, from north to south and sea to sea.可知, 在美国, 全国各地的人们都在跳舞。B项Dance in the US is everywhere.符合本段中心思想, 故选B项。
②根据设空处后的"对他们中的许多人来说, 这是一种结识他人和拥有社交生活的方式"可知, D项My older students say it makes them feel young.符合上下文语境, 其中的older students与后两句的them呼应。故选D项。
③本段中所列举事例告诉我们舞蹈能够改变人们的情绪, 这是对人们学习舞蹈的解释。A项So why do we dance 符合语境。故选A项。
④根据该空前一句They arrive at the class in low spirits and they leave with a smile.可知, 这对夫妇来的时候情绪低落, 离开的时候面带微笑, 是舞蹈改变了他们的情绪。F项Dancing seems to change their feelings completely.是对前一句的总结。故选F项。
⑤根据该空后两句可知, 安德烈亚一直在坚持跳舞, 只有E项I keep practicing even when I'm extremely tired.与语境相符。故选E项。
第二部分 语言知识运用
第一节
答案：1.C; 2.D; 3.C; 4.B; 5.A; 6.C; 7.D; 8.C; 9.B; 10.D; 11.B; 12.A; 13.D; 14.B; 15.B; 16.B; 17.D; 18.B; 19.A; 20.A
第二节
答案：①themselves ②simply ③lifting ④there ⑤to ⑥better ⑦an ⑧that ⑨shared ⑩works
解析：①设空处作make的宾语, 指代主语People, 当宾语跟主语是同一个对象时, 宾语应用反身代词。故填themselves。
②修饰形容词应用副词。故填simply。
③设空处应用非谓语动词作结果状语, lift与句子主语之间为逻辑上的主动关系, 且表示自然而然的结果, 应用现在分词。thus为副词, 意为"这样"。故填lifting。
④there exists...为固定句型, 意为"有......"。故填there。
⑤listen to为固定搭配, 意为"听......"。故填to。
⑥句意为: 社会心理学对此有一种观点, 即如果人们把注意力集中在一个做得更糟糕的人身上, 他们的自我感觉便会好一些。根据空后的even worse 可知此处应用比较级, 故填better。
⑦句意为: 一切都会好起来的, 因为这个人的处境比他们的还要糟糕。此处泛指"一天", 其前应用不定冠词。even的发音以元音音素开头, 故填an。
⑧设空处引导定语从句, music是先行词, 从句缺少主语, 且先行词由the very修饰, 所以应用关系代词that, 不可以用which。故填that。
⑨句意为: 随着他们的情绪得以分享, 他们肯定会得到一定程度的安慰。此处是"with+宾语+宾补"结构, emotions和share之间是逻辑上的被动关系, 所以应用过去分词形式, 故填shared。
⑩work是谓语动词, 与主语it之间是主动关系, 逗号前的分句使用一般现在时, 所以此处也应用一般现在时。故填works。
第三部分 写作
第一节
答案：Dear Jack,
As the Spring Festival is approaching, our whole country is in festive mood. Of all the traditions, pasting couplets on doors is the most common and important one. With black characters written on red papers, the couplets carry people's best wishes for the coming year.
If you really want to experience the Spring Festival and know more about the spring festival couplets, you should come to feel it in person. I am looking forward to seeing you here in China soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
答案：
Paragraph 1:
"I always say that your life depends on your water source," he said. "If you are in a bad situation and have to drink water not fit to drink, you take the risk of drinking wild poisonous water, which can quickly kill you." In this case, a lifestraw will come into play. Finally, Stewart recommends having a raincoat, or anything that can be used to protect you against the weather. Even food should take a back seat to these three necessary items.
"Everyone gets really worried about food, but the human body is designed to last a long time without food. When it comes to survival necessary items, food's on the bottom of the list." he said.
Paragraph 2:
You can keep all three items with you when you are away from your home. You can keep them in a backpack if you're hiking or camping, or even a car if you're traveling on the road. But in a word, the best thing you can do to ensure your own survival happens before you even leave.
第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）
第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
It's not easy to grow up. Actually it's far from easy. Growing up can be a real "pain" for some of us. We are always doing things that someone else makes us do and aren't allowed to do all the things we like. Sometimes we feel trapped; sometimes we are fearful, and sometimes we just don't understand why we can't stay young forever. When we look back on all the hardships in life with a positive attitude, we realise that all of our growing pains actually turn into growing gains!
When I was a young girl, my parents forced my sisters and me to do so many things that we never liked. They made me learn to play the violin and then the piano. At that time I hated music, just because it was what they wanted me to do. But looking back now, I am so glad that my parents encouraged me to take music lessons. Music has enriched my life in so many ways. I realise that my parents and teachers were always pushing me ahead, not because they wanted me to suffer, but because they wanted me to succeed in life. They always want me to have a better life thiin they do.
Every moment in our lives is either living or dying, so live life to its fullest! We are all going to experience growing pains, but they are just small pains in life. They might seem so huge at the time but we must be strong. Think about how we would feel if we had no fear and lived a life like that. The future is ours!
A little hard work and sweat never hurt anyone! If we realise that these pains are just small bumps(凸块) on our road to success, we will realise that our growing pains are actually growing gains!

Some of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO (United Nations Educational. Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying (联合) voice across cultures.
Despite the celebrations, though, in the U. S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.
It's Jason Moran's job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center s artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible,and preserve its history and culture.
"Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite." Moran tells National Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. "What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and white anymore. It's actually color, and it's, actually digital."
Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. "The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move,because the way the world works is not the same," says Moran.
Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party. "Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music." says Moran. "For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion (情感) lie Are we, as humans, gaining any insight (感悟) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context." says Moran. "so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster."
1.Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day
A.To remember the birth of jazz. B.To protect cultural diversity.
C.To encourage people to study music. D.To recognize the value of jazz.
2.What does the underlined word "that" in paragraph 3 refer to
A.Jazz becoming more accessible. B.The production of jazz growing faster.
C.Jazz being less popular with the young. D.The jazz audience becoming larger.
3.What can we infer about Moran's opinion on jazz
A.It will disappear gradually. B.It remains black and white.
C.It should keep up with the times. D.It changes every 50 years.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.Exploring the Future of Jazz. B.The Rise and Fall of Jazz.
C.The Story of a Jazz Musician. D.Celebrating the Jazz Day.

Can you imagine a world without music Studies show that public schools across the country are cutting back on music classes to save money. Worse, some schools have never had music classes to begin with. But without them, students' academic growth and emotional health could suffer. In fact, music classes are necessary for all students in schools.
Recent studies by Brown University have shown that students who received music education classes were better in maths and reading skills than those without music classes. Another study by The College Board found that students taking music and art classes got higher points. Students' academic success seems to depend on their taking part in music education.
Music programmes in public schools also help to add to a student’s sense of pride and self-confidence. Teens today have too many learning tasks. Besides, they have family problems, self-confidence problems, relationship troubles, and other. All of these can stop academic success, but music education can help. A study by the Texas Commission on Alcohol and Drug Abuse found that students who took part in school music programmes were less likely to turn to drugs. Music programmes encourage students to work together to produce an excellent performance.
Music crosses language, class, cultural and political boundaries(界限). Music allows students from different countries to connect. For example, at a school talent show, a new Japanese student played a piano duet (二重奏) with an American classmate. Although they could not communicate verbally(口头上), they were able to read the music in order to play the duet. Two students from different cultures worked as a team with self-confidence and common purpose through music.
The gift of music is priceless. We need to be sure to have necessary music classes for all students. The world is losing its music, and putting music into schools is the first step to get it back.
1.What can we learn about education with music classes
A.It allows schools to make more profits.
B.It leads to a lot of emotional problems easily.
C.It helps students to improve their schoolwork.
D.It has a great influence on the culture of the country.
2.What do the two studies seem to show
A.Not all students take part in music lessons.
B.Students with great success like to attend music lessons.
C.Music plays an important role in students' success.
D.Students having music classes are better in all lessons.
3.The example in Paragraph 4 mainly suggests that _______.
A.different cultures have different styles of music
B.music makes cross-country communication possible
C.Japan has a good international relationship with America
D.Japanese and American students are good at playing the piano
4.What is the best title for the text
A.How to Get Music Back B.Music Education in Schools
C.Music—a Bridge to Understanding D.The Importance of Listening to Music

第二节 （满分25分）
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的短文。
Want to know how to survive a plane crash What about a terrorist attack To put your mind at ease in nearly any situation, you can almost guarantee your survival if you never leave the house without 3 necessary items: a lighter (打火机), a lifestraw (救命吸管) and a raincoat.
Right off the place full of danger, your first instinct (本能) might be to search for help the minute you realize you're in trouble. But survival experts insist you should stay where you are until help finds you, instead; doing so will make it easier for the search and rescue teams to locate your location.
What should you do until then, you ask "Prepare to hunker down (盘腿坐下) for the long run. That’s where your three pieces of survival necessities come into play," Stewart says.
For one, you should have something to start a fire on you at all times. Fire-starting tools are inexpensive to purchase, and you can easily carry them around in a backpack or pant pocket. But even without a fancy item, all you really need is something to light the first flame.
"You can use cotton balls covered in petroleum jelly (凡士林油) as a fire starter," Stewart said. "They are water resistant and will start a fire with just a spark." Second, you’ll need something to make your drinking water fit to drink, such as a canteen (饭盒) that can boil water. Stewart recommends buying a $ 20 lifestraw, which "can be struck into the muddiest pool of water you can find and you suck the water out like a straw." Any doubt It could still save your life, Stewart says.
注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；
3. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头词或句子已为你写好；
4. 续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。
Paragraph 1:
"I always say that your life depends on your water source," he said.

You can keep all three items with you when you are away from your home.

2.词义猜测题。根据第三段中的Every moment in our lives is either living or dying可知, 作者认为, 生命中的时时刻刻都是非生即死的状态, 所以我们应该把活着的时光利用到极致。故选B项。
3.推理判断题。根据文章最后一句If we realise that these pains are just small bumps on our road to success, we will realise that our growing pains are actually growing gains!可知, 作者认为在成长的道路上, 痛苦并不会阻止我们成功, 而会让我们收获更多, 故经历痛苦是成长的必经过程。故选A项。

2.词义猜测题。根据上下文可知,贾森 莫兰的工作是改变爵士乐的现状,此处的that应指上一段的内容:虽然有一些庆祝活动,但是在美国,爵士乐的听众持续减少且呈现老龄化趋势,与年轻一代脱离了联系。由此可知爵士乐不太受年轻人欢迎。故选C项。
3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段莫兰所说的话“如今爵士乐不能用1908年或1958年的方式来呈现。因为世界的运转方式不一样了,所以爵士乐必须继续前进”,可以推断出,莫兰认为爵士乐应该与时俱进。故选C项。
4.主旨大意题。前两段引出话题并陈述现状;中间两段讲述莫兰的工作目的是改变爵士乐的现状,希望将来有更多的年轻人会喜欢爵士乐;最后两段指出爵士乐的问题和莫兰坚持的态度。所以“探索爵士乐的未来”是合适的标题。故选A项。

2.根据第二段Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations此处that指代上一句爵士乐在年轻一代不受欢迎,所以此处C项“爵士乐不太受年轻人欢迎”,符合题意。故正确答案为C。
3.根据第五段The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same可知Moran认为爵士乐要与时俱进,C项意为“跟上时代的步伐”符合题意。故正确答案为C。
4.本文主要讲, UNESCO将4月30日定为国际爵士乐节,让人们意识到爵士乐的意义与价值,以及改善爵士乐不受年轻人的欢迎的处境,探索爵士乐的未来。A项,“探索爵士乐的未来”符合题意。故正确答案为A。
全文翻译
最近世界上一些最著名的音乐家聚集在巴黎和新奥尔良,庆祝首个年度闰际爵士乐日。联合国教科文组织最近将4月30日设为世界爵士乐日,是为了提高公众对爵士乐的认识、了解爵士乐的重要性以及其作为跨文化联合愿望的潜力。
尽管举行了庆祝活动,但是在美国爵士乐的观众却不断地在减少并逐渐老年化,同时爵士乐已无法与年轻一代联系起来。
杰森 摩伦的工作就是要帮助改变这一现状。作为肯尼迪中心爵士乐的艺术顾问,摩伦希望扩大爵士乐的受众,使爵士乐更易被接受,并保留其历史和文化。
“爵士乐似乎并不受美国人青睐,”摩伦对国家公共电台的记者尼尔 柯南说道,“我希望能做到的是,这一代人和更年轻的人开始重新思考并理解爵士乐不再只是黑白音乐,它实际上是多彩的,是数字化的。”
摩伦说,当今爵士乐的一个问题就是它失去了音乐的娱乐性。“现在的爵士乐不能再像1908年或 1958年那样呈现,它必须继续发展,因为世界运转的方式不一样了。”摩伦说。
去年,摩伦做过一个项目,该项目把胖子沃勒的音乐作为舞会音乐。“只是为了想起沃勒的音乐既可作为音乐会乐曲也可是舞蹈音乐,”摩伦说。 “对我来说,这是语境重构的过程。音乐中的情感在哪里 作为人类,我们是不是在怎样谈论自己的过程中以及在像查理 帕克的音乐那类抽象的事物怎样让我们谈论感情和思想中获得某些感悟呢 有时候我们看不到音乐有更广的背景,”摩伦补充道,“所以我想继续这些对话,那些都是我想要培养的。”
D
答案：1-4.CCBB
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But without them, students' academic growth and emotional health could suffer”和第二段的内容可知,音乐课对学生的学业发展有促进的作用。故选C项。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句可知,音乐对学生的学术成功起着重要的作用。故选C项。
3.推理判断题。根据第四段第一句可知,第四段举例说明音乐无国界,能让不同国家的人交流。故选B项。
4.标题归纳题。本文主要论述了学校里缺乏音乐课对学生的影响和开设音乐课的意义。因此,最佳标题应是“Music education in Schools”。故选B项。

③本段中所列举事例告诉我们舞蹈能够改变人们的情绪, 这是对人们学习舞蹈的解释。A项So why do we dance 符合语境。故选A项。

第二节
答案：①themselves ②simply ③lifting ④there ⑤to ⑥better ⑦an ⑧that ⑨shared ⑩works
解析：①设空处作make的宾语, 指代主语People, 当宾语跟主语是同一个对象时, 宾语应用反身代词。故填themselves。
②修饰形容词应用副词。故填simply。
③设空处应用非谓语动词作结果状语, lift与句子主语之间为逻辑上的主动关系, 且表示自然而然的结果, 应用现在分词。thus为副词, 意为"这样"。故填lifting。
④there exists...为固定句型, 意为"有......"。故填there。
⑤listen to为固定搭配, 意为"听......"。故填to。
⑥句意为: 社会心理学对此有一种观点, 即如果人们把注意力集中在一个做得更糟糕的人身上, 他们的自我感觉便会好一些。根据空后的even worse 可知此处应用比较级, 故填better。
⑦句意为: 一切都会好起来的, 因为这个人的处境比他们的还要糟糕。此处泛指"一天", 其前应用不定冠词。even的发音以元音音素开头, 故填an。
⑧设空处引导定语从句, music是先行词, 从句缺少主语, 且先行词由the very修饰, 所以应用关系代词that, 不可以用which。故填that。
⑨句意为: 随着他们的情绪得以分享, 他们肯定会得到一定程度的安慰。此处是"with+宾语+宾补"结构, emotions和share之间是逻辑上的被动关系, 所以应用过去分词形式, 故填shared。
⑩work是谓语动词, 与主语it之间是主动关系, 逗号前的分句使用一般现在时, 所以此处也应用一般现在时。故填works。

第二节
答案：
Paragraph 1:
"I always say that your life depends on your water source," he said. "If you are in a bad situation and have to drink water not fit to drink, you take the risk of drinking wild poisonous water, which can quickly kill you." In this case, a lifestraw will come into play. Finally, Stewart recommends having a raincoat, or anything that can be used to protect you against the weather. Even food should take a back seat to these three necessary items.
"Everyone gets really worried about food, but the human body is designed to last a long time without food. When it comes to survival necessary items, food's on the bottom of the list." he said.
Paragraph 2:
You can keep all three items with you when you are away from your home. You can keep them in a backpack if you're hiking or camping, or even a car if you're traveling on the road. But in a word, the best thing you can do to ensure your own survival happens before you even leave.
