(2024重庆市第八中学校月考)
Although the piano keys come in black and white, the music they produce is full of color. Chinese pianist Tian Jiaxin explores creative performances and crossover cooperation with traditional Chinese music, with the expectation of bringing the music of the East to the Western world.
Tian attended a regular school instead of studying at a music school in her childhood. This enabled her to absorb China’s rich culture and understand the bigger picture later in her pursuit of a career as a professional pianist. “There’s so much to grasp when explaining a piece. What we’re conveying are the notes, with the culture behind the music for good measure,” Tian said.
As a Chinese pianist, Tian is looking to add more depth to her performances, stressing the contrast between Eastern and Western cultures. “No matter which country I am performing in, I always include Chinese music in my program. With Western pieces, I hope to show the world that a female musician from China can perform the music that they are familiar with and love.” Tian says that she believes her mission is to make China heard on a wider stage.
Tian believes that music is developing over time and that music from different ages has its own unusual meaning. “I’ve found that people’s understanding of Chinese music is often limited to certain pieces like Jasmine Flower,” Tian said. “However, there are so many great pieces of Chinese music that are unacquainted outside of China. So, I always try to feature both the time-honored classics of Chinese music and the newly created pieces,” she added.
“Chinese music has the magic to cause resonance(共鸣) with the audience and convey the various and deep culture of Chinese civilization,” Tian said.
1.What can we learn about Tian Jiaxin from the first two paragraphs
A.She went to a music school at a young age.
B.She adapted some well-known Chinese pieces.
C.She is a professional pianist known for her unique style.
D.She believes the culture behind each piece should be conveyed.
2.Which of the following best explains “unacquainted” underlined in Paragraph 4
A.Unknown.　　　B.Unpopular.　　　C.Unacceptable.　　　D.Unlimited.
3.What did Tian say about Chinese music
A.It is setting the fashion.　　　B.It develops at a low speed.
C.It conveys rich culture of China.　　　D.It holds little appeal for foreigners.
4.What can be the most suitable title for the text
A.Differences Between Eastern and Western Music
B.Chinese Culture Fueling International Music Trends
C.A Pianist Combining Chinese Music with Western Keys
D.A New Generation of Artists Promoting Chinese Culture

(2023湖北阶段练习)
Music is good for health. And drumming may be the best of all. As well as being physically demanding, it requires people to adjust their limbs and to react to outside stimuli, such as what the rest of the band is up to. It is particularly helpful for children who have emotional and behavioral difficulties.
Researchers at the Clem Burke Drumming Project—an organization named after Blondie’s drummer, who was one of its founders—have shown that teaching such children to drum helps them to control their reactions more generally, to focus more effectively on tasks they are given, and to communicate better with other people.
The project’s latest work, led by Cahart of King’s College London, goes a step further. It looks at the neurological(神经系统的) changes which accompany these variations.
Ms. Cahart and her colleagues found 36 autistic(自闭症的)teenagers and divided them into two groups. One had drum lessons twice a week for eight weeks. The other did not. At the beginning and end of the project everyone was asked to stay still for 45 minutes in a machine to see how the activity of their brains had changed. Their behaviour was also recorded.
As expected, most of the drumming group showed positive behavioral changes. And these were indeed reflected in their brains. The machine scans showed that several groups of connections between parts of those brains had strengthened during the experiment. In particular, two regions involved in attention control, formed strong links, separately, with places associated with introspection(内省) and with areas involved in understanding facial expressions.
These changes in the brain thus nicely match the changes in behaviour which learning to drum brings. Not a surprise, perhaps. But a confirmation of drumming’s power to heal.
5.Which is not the benefit of drumming for children who have emotional and behavioral difficulties
A.To be more brilliant and active.　　　B.To control their reactions more generally.
C.To communicate better with other people.　　　D.To focus more effectively on tasks they are given.
6.What was recorded in the process of the project
A.The way and frequency of drumming.
B.The teenagers’ attention control on drumming.
C.The teenagers’ emotion and their behaviour.
D.Activity of the teenagers’ brains and their behaviour.
7.What are the main changes in the brain caused by drumming
A.Places associated with introspection are more active.
B.Connections between parts of brains are strengthened.
C.Regions involved in attention control become stronger.
D.Changes in the brain cannot match the changes in behaviour.
8.What is this article mainly about
A.The way of keeping healthy.
B.The healing effect of drumming.
C.The relationship between the brain and behaviour.
D.The relationship between drumming and brain changes.

能力提升练
Ⅰ.1.composed　考查动词-ed形式。分析句子成分可知,设空处作后置定语,修饰名词短语a famous violin concerto,根据句中的by和此处语境可知,该名词短语与所给提示词compose之间为被动关系,应用动词-ed形式。故填composed。
2.and　考查连词。Liang Shanbo和 Zhu Yingtai之间为并列关系,应用并列连词and连接。故填and。
3.represents　考查时态和主谓一致。分析句子成分可知,which引导定语从句且在从句中作主语,设空处在从句中作谓语,根据上下文的时态可知此处应用一般现在时,先行词section为单数,谓语动词也应用单数形式,故填represents。
4.are separated　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子成分可知,设空处作when引导的表语从句的谓语,根据上下文的时态可知此处应用一般现在时;结合语境可知,the lovers和所给提示词separate之间为被动关系,故应用被动语态;主语the lovers为复数,故be动词用are。故填are separated。

6.which　考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,设空处无提示词,空前有逗号与前面隔开,此处缺少主语,故推测设空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰指物的先行词Country music,所以应用which。

5.moving　考查形容词。设空处修饰名词melody,需用形容词作定语。故填moving。

7.relation　考查名词。固定短语in relation to...意为“与……有关”。故填relation。
8.was diagnosed　考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。根据时间状语“When she was 29”可知,此处应用一般过去时;动词diagnose与主语she之间是被动关系,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was diagnosed。
9.to hear　考查动词不定式。名词desire后常接动词不定式作后置定语。have a desire to do sth.表示“渴望做某事”。故填to hear。

分析　这是and连接的并列复合句。在后一分句中,who引导定语从句,修饰先行词children;when引导时间状语从句。
译文　在另一个例子中,一位幼儿园老师将这首歌设置为闹钟,当它开始播放时,正在打盹的孩子们同时醒来。
Ⅲ.A
◎语篇解读　本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了中国钢琴家田佳鑫致力于发扬中国音乐,介绍了她做出的努力和成就。
1.D　细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知,田佳鑫认为音乐家传达的不仅是音符,还有音乐背后的文化。故选D。
2.A　词义猜测题。根据画线词上一句可知,人们对中国音乐的理解很少。由此推知,许多伟大的中国音乐在中国以外“并不为人所知”,所以unacquainted与unknown同义,意为“不为人所知”。故选A。
3.C　细节理解题。根据最后一段可知,田佳鑫认为中国音乐传达了中华文明的多元化和深厚的文化。故选C。
4.C　主旨大意题。文章主要叙述中国钢琴家田佳鑫探索中国传统音乐的创造性表演和跨界合作,希望将东方音乐带到西方世界。所以C项“结合中国音乐与西方琴键的钢琴家”与文章主旨相符。故选C。
【高频词汇】　1.explore v.探索　2.performance n.表演,演出　3.cooperation n.合作　4.absorb vt.理解,掌握;吸收;吸引全部注意力　5.professional adj.职业的,专业的
6.convey v.传达,表达　7.contrast n.差异,差别 vi.形成对比 vt.对比,对照　8.feature v.以……为特色

【差距词汇】　time-honored adj.历史悠久的
长难句　原句　With Western pieces, I hope to show the world that a female musician from China can perform the music that they are familiar with and love.
分析　本句是一个主从复合句。第一个that引导宾语从句,作show的宾语;第二个that引导定语从句,修饰先行词the music。
译文　我希望通过西方的作品向世界展示,来自中国的女音乐家可以演奏他们熟悉和喜爱的音乐。
B
◎语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了打鼓对人的健康的好处,它能够疗愈有情绪和行为问题的孩子的大脑。
5.A　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“teaching such children to drum helps them to control...other people”可知,教这些孩子打鼓有助于他们更全面地控制自己的反应,更有效地专注于他们被安排的任务,更好地与他人交流。所以对于有情绪和行为问题的儿童来说,打鼓的好处不包括使他们变得更加聪明和活跃。故选A。
6.D　细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句可知,在项目开始和结束时,每个人都被要求在一台机器里待45分钟,看看他们大脑的活跃度是如何变化的,他们的行为也被记录了下来。所以在项目进行的过程中这些青少年的大脑活跃度和行为被记录了下来。故选D。
7.B　细节理解题。根据第五段第三句可知,机器扫描显示,在实验过程中,大脑各部分之间的联系增强了。由此可知打鼓引起的大脑的主要变化是大脑各部分之间的联系得到加强。故选B。
易错归因　　　此处可能会误选C项。根据第五段最后一句可知,两个涉及注意力控制的区域分别和与内省相关的地方及与理解面部表情相关的区域形成了强大的联系,而不是“自身变得更强”。C项“涉及注意力控制的区域变得更强”曲解原义。
8.B　主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段中的“Music is good for health. And drumming may be the best of all.”和最后一段中的“But a confirmation of drumming’s power to heal.”可知,文章主要在讲打鼓对人的健康的好处,即打鼓对人的治愈力量。故选B。
【高频词汇】　1.adjust v.调整;适应　2.emotional adj.情感的,情绪的　3.reaction n.反应　4.reflect v.显示,表明;反映;反射　5.strengthen v.增强　6.involved adj.参与;有关联　7.link n.联系,连接 vt.联系;相关联
【差距词汇】　1.limb n.肢;臂;腿;翼;翅膀　2.stimulus n.(pl. stimuli)刺激(物),促进因素
长难句　原句　Researchers at the Clem Burke Drumming Project—an organization named after Blondie’s drummer, who was one of its founders—have shown that teaching such children to drum helps them to control their reactions more generally, to focus more effectively on tasks they are given, and to communicate better with other people.
分析　这是一个主从复合句。Researchers have shown是主句的主语和谓语;“named after...founders”是过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰organization,其中“who was...founders”是who引导的定语从句,修饰先行词Blondie’s drummer;“that teaching...other people”是that引导的宾语从句,作have shown的宾语,其中“teaching such children to drum”是动名词短语作主语;由and连接的三个并列的动词不定式短语“to control...generally”“to focus...given”和“to communicate...people”作宾语补足语,“they are given”是省略引导词的定语从句,修饰tasks。
译文　“Clem Burke Drumming Project”是一个以Blondie乐队的鼓手命名的组织,他是该组织的创始人之一,该组织的研究人员表明,教这些孩子打鼓有助于他们更全面地控制自己的反应,更有效地专注于分配给他们的任务,并更好地与他人沟通。
