George Gershwin,born in 1898,was one of America’s greatest composers.He published his first song when he was eighteen years old.During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs.
Many of Gershwin’s songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City.These plays were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s.Many of his songs have remained popular up to now.Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way—from jazz to country.
In the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music.Could jazz,some people asked,be considered serious music?In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organise a special concert to show that jazz was serious music.Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realised he had just a few weeks to do it.And in that short time,he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue.Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert.The audience were thrilled when they heard his music.It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.
In 1928,Gershwin went to Paris.He applied to study composition(作曲)with the well-known musician Nadia Boulanger,but she rejected him.She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style.While there,Gershwin wrote An American in Paris.When it was first performed,critics(评论家)were divided over the music.Some called it happy and full of life,and to others it was silly and boring.But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States.It still remains one of his most famous works.
George Gershwin died in 1937,just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer.He was only thirty-nine years old.Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages.People mourned the loss of the man and all the music he might have still written.
1.Many of Gershwin’s musical works were .?
A.written about New Yorkers
B.composed for Paul Whiteman
C.played mainly in the countryside
D.performed in various ways
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。从第二段的“Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way—from jazz to country.”可知,乔治·格什温的音乐作品是以各种形式演唱或演奏的。故选D项。
2.What do we know about the concert organised by Whiteman?
A.It attracted more people to theatres.
B.It proved jazz could be serious music.
C.It made Gershwin leader of the orchestra.
D.It caused a debate among jazz musicians.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段的“Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert.The audience were thrilled when they heard his music.It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.”可知,这个音乐会充分证明爵士音乐流行的同时,也可以庄重、严肃。
3.What did Gershwin do during his stay in Paris?
A.He created one of his best works.
B.He studied with Nadia Boulanger.
C.He argued with French critics.
D.He changed his music style.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。从第四段的第二句可知B项不正确;从第四段的“When it was first performed,critics(评论家) were divided over the music.”可知,不是格什温与评论家争辩,故C项不正确;没有提到他音乐风格的改变,故D项不正确;从第四段的最后一句“It still remains one of his most famous works.”可知A项是正确的。
4.What do we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Many of Gershwin’s works were lost.
B.The death of Gershwin was widely reported.
C.A concert was held in memory of Gershwin.
D.Brain cancer research started after Gershwin’s death.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。从最后一段的“Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages.”可知,世界各地的报纸对格什温的去世进行了广泛的报道。故选B项。

The other day I heard a few local musicians talking:
“I hate all the pianos in this town and I hate that rubbish they play on the radio.They cannot even understand rhythm(韵律).”
“Nobody wants to pay musicians anything.I’m sick of all the people who want you to play without paying you.”
One younger musician said,“There are several clubs who want me to play for a few nights a month and I’m trying to find other places to play.I’m also planning to join in several summer festivals this year.”
I really liked what the younger musician said so I made friends with him.
Attitudes are important.Whether they’re positive or negative(消极) they’re all rubbing off on you.If you’re around people who are always complaining or blaming others,it is possible that you will start doing the same as well.If you spend lots of time with people who don’t support your dreams,it is time to take a look at the people you call“friends”.?
There is an easy exercise you can try.Make a list of the people who you often stay with,and simply stop,spending time with the negative ones on your list.Set a new standard for yourself and don’t become friends with people who fall below that standard.
Of course,this exercise is entirely different from making friends only for the good of oneself.We really should try to help and spend time with those who are working towards a goal or dream.
15.The musicians’ conversation at the beginning is there to show that .?
A.musicians’ living conditions are not good
B.people in that town have poor taste in music
C.young people are more likely to succeed
D.different musicians have different attitudes
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据前四段来看,不同的音乐家有不同的观点。故选D项。
16.The underlined part in Paragraph 6 means .?
A.they’ll have an influence on you
B.they’ll help you realise your dreams
C.they’ll keep you from moving on
D.they’ll push you ahead very hard
答案:A
解析:词义猜测题。根据“If you’re around people who are always complaining or blaming others,it is possible that you will start doing the same as well.If you spend lots of time with people who don’t support your dreams,it is time to take a look at the people you call ‘friends’.”可知画线句子的意思是你周围的人会影响到你。故选A项。
17.Why did the author want to make friends with the younger musician?
A.He is more active than the others.
B.He can earn more than the others.
C.His attitude is more positive than the others.
D.He has more things to do than the others.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据“One younger musician said,‘There are several clubs who want me to play for a few nights a month and I’m trying to find other places to play.I’m also planning to join in several summer festivals this year.’”可知作者想和年轻的音乐家交朋友的原因是他的生活态度比其他人的要积极,故选C项。
18.By doing the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 7,you can .?
A.improve your ability to make friends
B.make the right kind of friends for sure
C.develop a better relationship with your friends
D.make some new friends with similar interests
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据“Make a list of the people who you often stay with,and simply stop,spending time with the negative ones on your list.Set a new standard for yourself and don’t become friends with people who fall below that standard.”可知,通过做第七段提到的活动,你能确保交到正确的朋友。故选B项。

七、七选五
(2015·黑龙江鹤岗一中高一上期末)
1 However,nobody asked if there was a common number that thousands of people loved enough,to call it their favorite.But now,thanks to London-based author Alex Bellos,it appears that such a number does exist and it is number seven!?
Bellos who has written a lot of books about mathematics and spent a large amount of time talking about the subject at schools,universities,and festivals,is always asked about his favorite number. 2 But he soon realized that it was because many people felt an emotional attachment to numbers.?
Curious to see if that was indeed the case.Bellos decided to set up an online survey and ask the people all over the world to pick their favorite number. 3 Here is what he found out:Though almost every number was selected,it was seven that appeared to be the most popular—4,000 or 10% of the people that took the survey,picked it as their favorite number.?
4 There is the cultural meaning as evidenced by the seven ancient wonders of the world,seven days in a week,and last but not least seven circles of the universe.?
If that is not convincing enough,Bellos also points out the importance of the number in another aspect.Seven is the only number between one and ten that can’t be multiplied or divided by any other number within that group.For example,multiply one,two,three,four,and five by two and the answer can be found within the group. 5 Nine can be divided by three.Seven is the only number that stands untouchable!?
A.At first,the question annoyed him.
B.Six,eight and ten can be divided by two.
C.People like it because of some religious reasons.
D.Many people don’t like number thirteen and try to avoid it.
E.To his surprise,about 44,000 people took the online survey.
F.Some people think their lucky number can bring good luck to them.
G.Bellos believes that seven is the choice for many people for a number of reasons.

四、阅读理解
导学号37860012
Have you ever wondered what kind of music the kids across the Pacific Ocean are listening to?Are they crazy about Britney Spears?Do they love the Backstreet Boys?Or do they dance to Eminem?
Well,nearly 6,000 teens have taken part in a Teens & Music study,conducted by USA Weekend Magazine.And the results show what type of music is hot and what is not.It comes as no surprise that hip-hop and rap are the most popular types of music among American teenagers.They began in the mid-1970s,with young black kids in New York,taking music onto the streets.Hip-hop and rap are well-known for the break-dancing(霹雳舞) that goes with them.
The word “rap”comes from a 1960s slang(俚语) word for conversation.It is a rapid,slangy rhyme that is spoken rather than sung.
Eminem is among the most popular rappers ever to hit the US.His first album The Marshall Mathers LP topped the American music charts in May 2000.Although about a third of teens in the US showed their support for him,almost as many said that his music was so boring that they couldn’t listen to it.
Compared with Eminem,actor rapper Will Smith is more of a star for the kids.He was awarded the Wannabe Award,at Nickelodeon’s 16th Annual Kids’ Choice Awards.It is an award given to a celebrity whom kids most want to be.
Pop music,such as Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys,has always suited the tastes of the general public.It continues to enjoy support among teens and is the second most popular after rap.
The third is rock music with excited dance beats and simple lyrics that speak loudly of social problems.The melodies are led by electric guitars.Rock became popular in the US in the early 1950s.American singer Elvis Presley and British group the Beatles became world-famous rock artists.
The study also shows that jazz is least loved by American teens.It developed in the later part of the 19th century from a mixture of African work songs and hymns.Jazz tends to be the type of music that people enjoy more as they get old.

如何学好一门外语?首先要有词汇量打底。但是,学生在提高词汇量的时候如果只是不停地在纸上默写或是大声背诵单词,那是远远不够的。那么,学生该如何高效学习英语?
一、学习英语的首要理念:要努力去了解是什么,而尽量少去了解为什么。
因为英语是语言,很多词汇和句型的用法没有道理可讲,人们就是这么用的,记住就好。当然了,仔细分析起来或许可以找到语法上的解释。重点句型重点语法功能走近高考拓展阅读二、学习英语需要多种形式的神经刺激。
真正学好英语,不经历背诵大量文章,写大量东西,听大量材料,是根本不可能达到目的的。比如一个新单词,我们在课本上看到、默写、背诵,还不能说真正认识了。在听力中听到了这个单词,能反应过来是它吗?我们当初学说话的时候,都是无形中进行了听说读写等不经意的练习才全面掌握的。
三、学习英语要善于利用零碎时间。
英语学习不是靠突击就可以学好的,一下子花上好几个小时拼命学英语,是无济于事的。它的特点在于细水长流。每天花上几十分钟的零碎时间,背一段课文,记几个单词,长期坚持,逐渐会得到提高的。重点句型重点语法功能走近高考拓展阅读四、要着意“卖弄”。
新学会的词汇和用法,应该在可能的场合多多练习使用。不要老用自己喜欢的或者熟悉的单词或句型,这样的话,新的东西永远得不到强化,慢慢地又会变陌生。不断地将新东西变为旧东西,又不断接触新的东西,加以巩固和强化,如此反复,才能不断得到提高。重点句型重点语法功能走近高考拓展阅读American country music
As an important form of music,how much do you know about American country music?
Over the past twenty years,American country music has become more and more popular.
Songwriters are no longer writing about the modern values1 of the USA—money,success or expensive things to buy.Instead they are writing once more about things that are common for everyone:feeling alone in the modern world,the value of having good friends and so on.
In the 1950s,American music was about other things,for example,love—getting or losing a boyfriend or girlfriend.Money was also thought to be important.重点句型重点语法功能走近高考拓展阅读Then in the 1960s songwriters turned to other subjects.During these years many young students were angry with society,so songs were often full of anger.Political2 leaders were not well thought of and those songs often made fun of them.
Today country music has returned.It has become big business.It brings in between 200 and 400 million dollars a year.Once the home of American country music was Nashville,Tennessee.Now,however,the music has reached all parts of the States,from Los Angeles in the west to New York in the east.Singers do not just come from the States but from all over the world.There are many famous singers from Britain,Canada and Australia.A lot of them appear on television too.重点句型重点语法功能走近高考拓展阅读The first country singers sang while playing the guitar.It was easy for them to carry a guitar on their travels.Now,however,a lot of electrical equipment is needed for large theatres.
Country music today remains much the same as before.One subject to which country music often returns is “the good old days”.In “the good old days” people thought well of each other.People loved life in the open air.They believed that the best things in life were free:sunshine,laughing,walks in the beauty of the country,friends and music.重点句型重点语法功能走近高考拓展阅读词海拾贝?

The term country music refers to a variety of styles,originally popular among working class white Americans in the rural areas of the South and West.Originally known as “hillbilly music”,the term was replaced by country and western music in 1949 and eventually shortened to country music.
But the origins of country music can be traced back to a century ago.There are many immigrants from Britain and Ireland.Their songs and dances,nursery rhymes and ballads,would form the most important part of the folk musical tradition of rural America,and the basis for what became known as “old time”music.
These roots of country music lie largely in the folk songs and instrumental music of the English,Irish,and Scots who settled in the Appalachian areas of the Mid-South during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.Many of these mountainous areas were not settled until the 1830s,and then by impoverished immigrants who were concerned with the daily struggle for survival.The communities were cut off from the rest of America and still attached to their traditions.
Other origins of country music can be traced back to the flamenco and habanera music of Spain,the polka and other dances of Eastern Europe and—as with almost all the popular music of the United States—the influence of the slave populations shipped from the African continent.In fact one of the major instruments in Appalachian and early country music,the banjo,has its origins in Afro-American history.
Two publishing events in the early part of the 20th century excited a widespread interest in America’s white musical tradition and “old time” music.First,in 1910,the musicologist John Lomax published Cowboy Songs and Other Frontier Ballads.Then in 1916 the English song collector Cecil Sharp put together a collection of folk music from the Appalachian mountains.
But it wasn’t until 1922,when Texas fiddler(小提琴家) Eck Robertson cut the first record of “old time”music,that the popularity of what also became known as“hillbilly music”really began to grow,via pioneering artists,record labels and radio stations.The record that more generally gets cited as the first country release was made in June 1923 by Fiddlin’ John Carson.
25.What does the text mainly discuss?
A.The history of the US folk music.
B.The origins of country music.
C.The influence of “old time” music.
D.The waves of immigrants in the US.
答案:B
解析:主旨大意题。本文介绍了美国乡村音乐的起源。关键词句有“But the origins of country music...”,“These roots of country music...”,“Other origins of country music...”等。
26.The underlined word “impoverished” in Paragraph 3 most probably means“ ”.?
A.brave B.poor
C.legal D.kind
答案:B
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线单词后的“who were concerned with the daily struggle for survival”可知,美国早期移民的生活很艰难,故可推断这个单词的含义应为“贫困的”。
27.Who made a great contribution to the spread of Appalachian music?
A.Fiddlin’ John Carson. B.Eck Robertson.
C.Cecil Sharp. D.John Lomax.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“Then in 1916 the English song collector Cecil Sharp put together a collection of folk music from the Appalachian mountains.”可知C项正确。
28.Country music first became widely known in the .?

Daughter of an opera singer,Pat Benatar first studied opera at Juilliard before dropping out to marry her high school sweetheart.Together they moved to New York,but the two soon separated.In the hope of living happily ever after,she remembered her earlier dream of becoming a professional singer and started trying hard to realise it.At night,Benatar worked as a singing waitress.During the day,she knocked at the doors of record companies with her demo tape(样带).
For three years,she was met with nothing but rejections (拒绝) from record companies.These record companies were fond of her voice but they said that she was too feminine (女性的) for the style of music she performed.Then,on Halloween night 1977,Benatar gave a performance dressed as a modern vampire (吸血鬼) .The audience went wild.This experience led Benatar to change her looks.In her later performances,she usually wore black tights and a short black top.
The new style made her performances more popular,and gave her a chance to work for Chrysalis Records.Her first single,Heartbreaker,headed the Top 40 charts,as did several of her other songs.Benatar won four Grammy Awards for Best Rock Vocal Performance,from 1980 to 1983.Benatar was also the winner of three American Music Awards:Favourite Female Pop/Rock Vocalist of 1981 and 1983,and Favourite Female Pop/Rock Video Artist of 1985.
In 2010,Pat Benatar wrote a book,Between a Heart and a Rock Place,discussing her early life and success in the music business.
29.Which of the following is the correct order of Benatar’s life?
a.She wrote a book about herself.
b.She worked as a singing waitress.
c.She worked for Chrysalis Records.
d.She married her high school boyfriend.

30.Benatar wanted to realise her dream of being a professional singer after .?
A.she had a daughter
B.she ended her marriage
C.she finished her studies at Juilliard
D.she lost her job as a singing waitress
答案:B

31.The text mainly tells us about .?
A.a new style of music B.a modern vampire
C.an opera singer D.a rock star

解析:主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段对歌手Pat Benatar获奖情况的介绍以及最后一段她写的书的书名可知,本文是对摇滚歌星Pat Benatar的介绍。
32.Benatar was rejected by many record companies because of .?
A.her looks B.her voice
C.her songs D.her experiences
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段的“These record companies were fond of her voice but they said that she was too feminine(女性的) for the style of music she performed.”可知,正是因为Benatar的外形与她所唱的音乐风格不符,她才遭到唱片公司的拒绝。

Samuel Osmond is a 19-year-old law student from Cornwall,England.He never studied the piano.However,he can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them.He learns a piece of music by listening to it in parts.Then he thinks about the notes in his head.Two years ago,he played his first piece Moonlight Sonata(奏鸣曲)by Beethoven.He surprised everyone around him.
Amazed that he remembered this long and difficult piece of music and played it perfectly,his teachers say Samuel is unbelievable.They say his ability is very rare,but Samuel doesn’t even realize that what he can do is special.Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents,but music teachers told him he should study music instead.Now,he studies law and music.
Samuel can’t understand why everyone is so surprised.“I grew up with music.My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar.About two years ago,I suddenly decided to start playing the piano,without being able to read music and without having any lessons.It comes easily to me—I hear the notes and can bear them in mind —each and every note,”says Samuel.
Recently,Samuel performed a piece during a special event at his college.The piece had more than a thousand notes.The audience was impressed by his amazing performance.He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can’t play it.Samuel says confidently,“It’s all about super memory—I guess I have that gift.”
However,Samuel’s ability to remember things doesn’t stop with music.His family says that even when he was a young boy,Samuel heard someone read a story,and then he could retell the story word for word.
