二、阅读理解(共5小题;每小题5分,满分25分)
The balalaika, also called the "Russian guitar", is a traditional Russian musical instrument. It has a long neck, a wooden triangle-shaped body and strings. It is usually used to play Russian music by plucking(弹拨) the strings with fingers or a pick.
Russians like the balalaika. The music played with it can be cheerful, as if the farmers were dancing happily to celebrate their harvest. It can also be energetic, as if the workers were working hard to make their country richer and stronger. If a Russian moves to live or work abroad, he will probably take a balalaika with him. When he feels lonely and sad, he will play it to cheer himself up.
The balalaika was originally played by the poor in Russia. At that time, balalaikas were made by the players themselves. They were rough, simple and cheap with different numbers of strings, from two to even six. Later a Russian musician Vasily Vasilievich Andreyev (1861-1918) improved the balalaika. He created a whole family of balalaikas of different sizes, all with three strings. The smallest balalaika is called Prima. It is 60—70 cm long. The biggest, Contrabass, is almost 2 meters high with a leg to sit on the floor. Andreyev founded the first balalaika orchestra(管弦乐队) in the world, mainly using balalaikas to perform. He gave concerts at the Universal Exposition in Paris in 1889, which was a great success.
Today, there are balalaika groups performing around the world. More and more people get to know the balalaika and are attracted by its Russian-style music.
11.The balalaika is a musical instrument______.
A. without strings B. with a long neck
C. of a round shape D. with a metal body
12.The music played with a balalaika is usually______.
A. slow and sad B. strong and serious
C. soft and modern D. cheerful and energetic
13.Andreyev is mentioned in Paragraph Three to introduce_______.

B. the history of balalaika orchestras

A. The balalaika cannot be plucked with fingers.
B. The balalaika was played by the rich in Russia at first.
C. The balalaika makes Russian music attract more and more people.
D. If a Russian moves to other countries, he won't take a balalaika.
