Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Reading poems is not exactly an everyday activity for most people. In fact， many people never read a poem once they get out of high school.
It is worth reminding ourselves that this has not always been the case in America. In the 19th century， a usual American activity was to sit around the fireside in the evening and read poems aloud. It is true that there was no television at the time， nor movie theatres， nor World Wide Web， to provide diversion. However， poems were a source of pleasure，of self-education，of connection to other people or to the world beyond one’s own community. Reading them was a social act as well as an individual one，and perhaps even more social than individual. Writing poems to share with friends and relations was， like reading poems by the fireside， another way in which poetry has a place in everyday life.
How did things change？ Why are most Americans no longer comfortable with poetry，and why do most people today think that a poem has nothing to tell them and that they can do well without poems？
There are， I believe， three factors： poets， teachers， and we ourselves. Of these， the least important is the third. The world surrounding the poem has betrayed us more than we have betrayed the poem. Early in the 20th century， poetry in English headed into directions unfavourable to the reading of poetry. Readers decided that poems were not for the fireside or the easy chair at night， and that they belonged where other difficult-to-read things belonged.
Poets failed the reader， and so did teachers. They want their students to know something about the skills of a poem， and they want their students to see that poems mean something. Yet what usually occurs when teachers push these concerns on their high school students is that young people decide poems are unpleasant crossword puzzles.

Floorball has been a sport growing in popularity in the United States for the past few years. At Saint Martin’s University in Lacey， Washington， it started as an activity spread by word of mouth， and later became popular across the university.
David Crawford， the director of recreation （娱乐活动） services at Saint Martin’s University， felt the sport could have a large success on their campus.
“I’ve played floor hockey （曲棍球） over the years， but was always annoyed with the equipment. When I came across floorball， I immediately saw the potential benefits it had in relation to overall satisfaction，” said Crawford.
One of the many perks of offering floorball at your university is that it offers players the same style of sport as hockey， without the high risk of concussions （脑震荡） and other head-related injuries. “When playing floorball， players don’t wear helmets， gloves or any of the other equipment that’s needed in hockey. It is recommended that players wear eye protection and a mouth guard， but it is not required，” said Crawford.
While traditional marketing strategies are taken by Saint Martin’s University to publicize the sport， informal sessions have really been what spread the word about the popularity and benefits of the sport. These informal sessions include anything from offering the sport as an option at monthly “late night” events to having the basketball and volleyball teams use floorball as conditioning practice.
Crawford explained how it is important to understand how beneficial the sport can be if offered at other universities. It is inexpensive， it won’t damage your floors and you can play it on nearly any surface.
“If you have a floor hockey program and it’s in decline （衰落）， you may find with a switch to floorball there may be more interest from players who aren’t currently playing，” said Crawford. “While floorball will attract the hockey crowd， it will also attract students looking for something new and different.”
9.What aspect of floor hockey was Crawford dissatisfied with？
A.Its rules are too strict.
B.It needs a lot of players.
C.Its styles are too traditional.
D.It requires several pieces of equipment.
10.What does the underlined word “perks” in Paragraph 4 mean？
A.Purposes. B.Examples.
C.Advantages. D.Challenges.
11.What is a more effective method of publicizing floorball at the university？
A.Using traditional media.
B.Setting up floorball teams.
C.Organizing informal activities.
D.Setting aside a field for floorball.
12.What opinion does Crawford express in the last paragraph？
A.Floorball may be popular with new players.
B.Floorball may replace floor hockey at the campus.
C.There may be a need for saving floor hockey programs.
D.There may be more floorball matches between universities.

As I was doing my housework yesterday， I chose a playlist by Jeanette， a Spanish pop singer. As I listened to her， I suddenly became aware that Jeanette was singing in English and French， so I got excited. The song that was playing only contained one French lyric. Even so， this was enough to make me appreciate my knowledge of languages more and made me realize that people like Jeanette and I can share our love for languages through music.
Because my family comes from Mexico， I am lucky to be bilingual （会说两种语言的）， speaking both in Spanish and English. Furthermore， I’ve been learning French since I was twelve years old and plan to be a French and Spanish teacher in the future. I’m so thankful that my parents insisted on speaking only in Spanish to me growing up.
I couldn’t help thinking about how there is a certain quality in Spanish and French in particular that can attract the English-dominant （英语主导的） music industry. The Spanish-language pop song Mi Gente （My People） by Colombian-born J.Balvin， featuring French artist Willy William， represents a special moment in music， a new sound of a Latino culture on the rise and being embraced （欣然接受） proudly. Even though Willy William only sings one French lyric in the song， French learners like me are content that they can understand that one line. Furthermore， native French and Spanish speakers should feel proud that their language is included in such a popular industry. I am proud to hear Spanish songs on English-speaking radio stations.
We don’t listen to songs simply because we like the rhythm； we actually appreciate the words. I encourage my fellow students to continue to learn a second or even third language and immerse （沉浸） themselves in the culture. Once you get to the level where you understand what an artist is saying in a foreign language， the feeling of pride is irreplaceable. Plus， what better way to share your love for French， Spanish， Italian， etc. than through the universal language of music？
13.Why was the author excited when listening to Jeanette？
A.She found Jeanette’s song was her favourite.
B.She felt inspired to explore a new language.
C.She realized she had a great interest in music.
D.She fully understood what Jeanette was singing.
14.What is the author’s dream？
A.To come back to Mexico.
B.To teach French and Spanish.
C.To become a bilingual singer.
D.To learn more foreign languages.
15.Why does the author mention J.Balvin’s “Mi Gente” in Paragraph 3？
A.To highly appreciate J.Balvin’s talent in music.
B.To explain why English songs win wide support.
C.To compare J.Balvin’s music style with that of Willy William.
D.To show Spanish and French can be popular in the music industry.
16.What does the author stress in the last paragraph？
A.It is significant to learn and master new languages.
B.It is a good way to learn a new language through music.
C.It is a must to understand lyrics before listening to foreign songs.
D.It is helpful for teachers to test students’ language skills through music.

Saving the environment might seem like a difficult thing. But living an environmentally friendly life is quite easy. With just a few small lifestyle changes， you can protect the planet and also live a healthier life for yourself！ 17
Cut back on driving.
Find other forms of transportation that consume less or no petrol. 18 They won’t cause any pollution or consume natural resources. If that isn’t a choice， consider sharing with others or using public transportation. Replacing car trips with public transport reduces traffic jams and the overall amount of petrol， cutting back your carbon footprint.
Volunteer to clean up your community.
Volunteer work has a directly positive impact on the environment in your area. You can volunteer to pick up litter， plant community gardens or clean up rivers. Find an activity that suits your interests and set aside time to help regularly. 19 If you prefer to be part of a group， volunteer with friends， your class or anyone else.
Upcycle items.
20 Instead of throwing things away， give them another purpose by making jewelry， household accessories or restyled clothing. Upcycling is fun and good for the Earth. For example， you could turn an old T-shirt into a grocery bag or use cinder blocks （煤渣砖） to make outdoor planters. Experiment and look for new ways to adapt used objects.
21
Some chemicals have harmful long-term effects on the environment. Choose chemical-free products， plus all-natural household cleaners， beauty and hygiene products. The fewer chemicals you use， the healthier the environment will be. Plus， natural and chemical-free products are also good for you！
A.Keep recycled items properly.
B.Use fewer chemicals in your daily life.
C.Walk or ride a bike whenever possible.
D.Here are some tips that may be of great help.

Ⅰ.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。在过去，人们经常读诗，然而现在读诗的人越来越少。文章针对这种现象探讨了原因。
1.A 细节理解题。根据第二段中的In the 19th century ...of connection to other people or to the world beyond one’s own community.可知，诗歌是联系一个人与他人或外部世界的纽带。
2.C 词义猜测题。画线单词前面的television、 movie theatres、 World Wide Web这些事物都是为人们提供娱乐的，由此可推断diversion与amusements同义，意为“娱乐活动”。
3.D 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句可知，读者觉得诗歌不再适合坐在火炉边或安乐椅上舒服地读了，是因为它们现在更难理解了。
4.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Poets failed the reader， and so did teachers.及下文介绍的老师在教给学生诗歌时，强加给他们的学习内容使他们认为诗歌是令人不愉快的填字游戏。
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了第一位出版诗集的美国黑人女诗人菲莉斯·惠特莉的故事。
5.D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的to be “about seven years old ...from the circumstances of shedding （使脱落） her front teeth”可知，Wheatley一家是根据菲莉斯的牙齿状况看出她正是换牙的年龄。
6.B 推理判断题。根据第三段中的Colonists （殖民者） did not want to buy poetry written by an African.Mrs Wheatley wrote to England to ask Countess （女伯爵） of Huntingdon for help ...This book made Phillis famous in England and the thirteen colonies.可推知，在Countess of Huntingdon的帮助下，菲莉斯出版了她的诗集。
7.D 细节理解题。根据第四段中的After her master died， Phillis was freed.可知，菲莉斯最终获得自由是在主人去世后。
8.B 段落大意题。最后一段围绕菲莉斯所取得的成就展开，她证明了黑人和白人一样也是有艺术美感的，也是聪明的。她的成功对废除奴隶制度产生了推动作用。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。地板球运动比地板曲棍球运动有更多的优势，在圣马丁大学受到欢迎。
9.D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的I’ve played floor hockey （曲棍球） over the years， but was always annoyed with the equipment.和第四段中Crawford说的话可知，打地板曲棍球所需要的装备多且复杂，Crawford对此感到不满意。
10.C 词义猜测题。根据第四段中的it offers players the same style of sport as hockey， without the high risk of concussions （脑震荡） and other head-related injuries可知，本段中提到了地板球运动的一个优势：没有头部受伤的高风险。由此可推断，perks在本段中指地板球运动的“优势”。
11.C 细节理解题。根据第五段第一句可知，虽然圣马丁大学在宣传地板球运动时采用了传统的推广策略，但实际上，非正式活动是普及这项运动的真正有效的途径。
12.A 观点态度题。根据最后一段中Crawford所说的you may find with a switch to floorball there may be more interest from players who aren’t currently playing和it will also attract students looking for something new and different可知，Crawford认为地板球运动可能会吸引那些之前没从事过该项运动的人。
语篇解读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过自己听不同语种的歌的经历阐释了学习外语的重要性。
13.D 推理判断题。根据第一段内容和第二段前两句可知，作者会说西班牙语、英语和法语，因此当听到西班牙流行歌手Jeanette演唱的那首含有一句法语歌词的英文歌时，她因为能听懂歌词而兴奋。
14.B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的plan to be a French and Spanish teacher in the future可知，会说三种语言的作者想当教法语和西班牙语的老师。
15.D 推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知，作者以哥伦比亚歌手J.Balvin广受欢迎的单曲Mi Gente为例，阐释了为什么西班牙语和法语能吸引以英语为主导的音乐界——法语学习者能听懂歌词内容、法国人和西班牙人会因为他们的语言出现在英语主导的音乐行业而感到自豪。由此推断，作者提及J.Balvin的单曲是为了说明西班牙语和法语也可以在音乐界受欢迎。
16.A 推理判断题。最后一段中作者鼓励像她一样学习外语的同学们继续学习，她认为当掌握了一门外语时，听懂外语歌词的那种自豪感是不可替代的。由此推断，作者在最后一段中强调了学习和掌握外语的重要性。
Ⅱ.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。拯救环境似乎是一件困难的事情。只要稍微改变一下生活方式，你就可以在保护地球的同时，过上更健康的生活！本文对具体的做法提出了几个建议。
17.D 根据上下文可知，此处讲的是改变生活方式，在保护地球的同时过上健康的生活，下文直接给出了建议，由此可知，设空处为过渡句，D项（以下是一些有帮助的建议）符合语境。
18.C 上文说的是要选择不会造成任何污染或消耗自然资源的交通方式。C项（只要可能，步行或骑自行车）符合语境。
19.F 根据空后一句可知，上文给的建议是加入一个环保团队或组织。F项（你也可以加入一个吸引你的环保组织）符合语境。F项中的environmental organization与下文中的group相呼应。
20.G 根据空后一句可知，此处说的是要创造性地调整不需要的物品的用途，减少垃圾，与G项所表达的含义一致，故G项符合语境。
21.B 根据下文Some chemicals have harmful long-term effects ... beauty and hygiene products.可知，此处上下文说的是要减少使用化学物质，与B项所表达的含义一致，故B项符合语境。
Ⅲ.
Dear Linda，
I’m more than glad to hear you have a great interest in classical Chinese poetry.
To improve your understanding and appreciation of Chinese poetry， you’d better try reading the poems aloud， which can help you to feel the rhythm and melody of the language.Another helpful tip is to read English translations of the poetry by renowned Chinese translators， such as Qian Zhongshu， whose translations can give you a better understanding of the meaning and themes behind the poems.
May you have a wonderful cultural trip while exploring the world of classical Chinese poetry.
Yours，

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
By Robert Frost
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though；
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely， dark and deep，
But I have promises to keep，
And miles to go before I sleep，
And miles to go before I sleep.

即时演练
The Road Not Taken is a poem written by American poet Robert Frost.
This poem describes a situation where the poet needs to choose from two roads.The “roads” not only refer to the real roads he meets while walking in the yellow woods， but also symbolize different directions in life.The choice has such a big impact on our lives that we hesitate a lot at the crossroads.
In my opinion， all of us are a traveler on our journey through life.Once we make a choice， we have few chances to go back， so what we need to do is embrace the future actively rather than sigh for the past.

假定你是李华，最近你读了罗伯特·弗罗斯特的诗歌《未选择的
路》，请你写一篇诗歌评论，内容包括：
1. 诗的作者；
2. 对诗中“roads”的理解；
3. 这首诗对你的启发。
注意：1.写作词数应为80左右；
2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。
参考范文：
The Road Not Taken is a poem written by American poet Robert Frost.
This poem describes a situation where the poet needs to choose from
two roads.The “roads” not only refer to the real roads he meets while
walking in the yellow woods， but also symbolize different directions in
life.The choice has such a big impact on our lives that we hesitate a lot at
the crossroads.
In my opinion， all of us are a traveler on our journey through
life.Once we make a choice， we have few chances to go back， so what
we need to do is embrace the future actively rather than sigh for the past.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Reading poems is not exactly an everyday activity for most people. In
fact， many people never read a poem once they get out of high school.
It is worth reminding ourselves that this has not always been the case
in America. In the 19th century， a usual American activity was to sit
around the fireside in the evening and read poems aloud. It is true that there
was no television at the time， nor movie theatres， nor World Wide
Web， to provide diversion. However， poems were a source of
pleasure，of self-education，of connection to other people or to the world
beyond one’s own community. Reading them was a social act as well as an
individual one，and perhaps even more social than individual. Writing
poems to share with friends and relations was， like reading poems by the
fireside， another way in which poetry has a place in everyday life.
How did things change？ Why are most Americans no longer
comfortable with poetry，and why do most people today think that a poem
has nothing to tell them and that they can do well without poems？
There are， I believe， three factors： poets， teachers， and we
ourselves. Of these， the least important is the third. The world
surrounding the poem has betrayed us more than we have betrayed the
poem. Early in the 20th century， poetry in English headed into directions
unfavourable to the reading of poetry. Readers decided that poems were not
for the fireside or the easy chair at night， and that they belonged where
other difficult-to-read things belonged.
Poets failed the reader， and so did teachers. They want their students
to know something about the skills of a poem， and they want their
students to see that poems mean something. Yet what usually occurs when
teachers push these concerns on their high school students is that young
people decide poems are unpleasant crossword puzzles.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。在过去，人们经常读诗，然而现在
读诗的人越来越少。文章针对这种现象探讨了原因。
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。在过去，人们经常读诗，然而现在
读诗的人越来越少。文章针对这种现象探讨了原因。
1. Why is reading poems thought to be a social act in the 19th century？
A. Because it built a link among people.
B. Because it helped unite a community.
C. Because it was a source of self-education.
D. Because it was a source of pleasure.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段中的In the 19th century ...of
connection to other people or to the world beyond one’s own
community.可知，诗歌是联系一个人与他人或外部世界的纽带。
2. What does the underlined word “diversion” in Paragraph 2 most
probably mean？
A. Concentration. B. Change.
C. Amusements. D. Stories.
解析： 词义猜测题。画线单词前面的television、 movie
theatres、 World Wide Web这些事物都是为人们提供娱乐的，由此可
推断diversion与amusements同义，意为“娱乐活动”。
3. According to the passage， what is the main cause of the great gap
between readers and poetry？
A. Students are becoming less interested in poetry.
B. Students are poorly educated in high school.
C. TV and the Internet are more attractive than poetry.
D. Poems have become difficult to understand.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句可知，读者觉得诗歌
不再适合坐在火炉边或安乐椅上舒服地读了，是因为它们现在更难
理解了。
4. What does the writer question in the last paragraph？
A. The difficulty in studying poems.
B. The way poems are taught in school.
C. Students’ wrong ideas about poetry.
D. The techniques used in writing poems.
解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Poets failed the reader，
and so did teachers.及下文介绍的老师在教给学生诗歌时，强加给他
们的学习内容使他们认为诗歌是令人不愉快的填字游戏。
B
Phillis Wheatley was born in Gambia （in Africa） on 8 May 1753
and died in Boston on 5 December 1784.When she was seven or eight，
she was sold as a slave to John and Susanna Wheatley of Boston.She was
named after the ship that brought her to America， the Phillis.The family
supposed the girl — who was “suffering from a change of climate”，
with “no other covering than a dirty carpet” — to be “about seven
years old ...from the circumstances of shedding （使脱落） her front
teeth”.
Phillis was very intelligent.The Wheatley family taught her to read
and write， and encouraged her to write poetry.Her first poem On Messrs
Hussey and Coffin was published when she was only twelve.In 1770， An
Elegiac Poem， on the Death of That Celebrated Divine， and Eminent
Servant of Jesus Christ， the Reverend and Learned George Whitefield
made her famous.It was published in Boston， Newport， and
Philadelphia.
When she was eighteen， Phillis and Mrs Wheatley tried to sell a
collection containing twenty-eight of Phillis’ poems.Colonists （殖民者）
did not want to buy poetry written by an African.Mrs Wheatley wrote to
England to ask Countess （女伯爵） of Huntingdon for help.The countess
was a wealthy supporter of the abolition （废除） of slavery.Phillis had
Poems on various subjects， religious and moral published in England in
1773.This book made Phillis famous in England and the thirteen
colonies.She wrote a poem for George Washington in 1775， and he
praised her work.They met in 1776.Phillis supported independence for the
colonies during the Revolutionary War.
After her master died， Phillis was freed.She married John Peters， a
free black man， in 1778.She and her husband lost two children.John was
put into prison for debt in 1784.Phillis and her remaining child died in
December of 1784 and were buried in an unmarked grave.
Phillis was the first African-American and the first slave in the United
States to publish a book.She was the first African-American woman to earn
a living from her writing.Phillis’ poetry proved the abolitionists’ idea that
blacks could be artistic and intellectual.Her achievements were used to
support a growing antislavery movement.

她正是换牙的年龄。
6. It can be inferred from the text that Countess of Huntingdon .
A. lived on writing poems
B. helped Phillis get her writings published
C. supported independence for the colonies
D. felt surprised that Phillis could read and write

not want to buy poetry written by an African.Mrs Wheatley wrote to
England to ask Countess （女伯爵） of Huntingdon for help ...This
book made Phillis famous in England and the thirteen colonies.可推
知，在Countess of Huntingdon的帮助下，菲莉斯出版了她的诗集。

A. Phillis was only 18 years old when her first poem was published.
B. Phillis’ first attempt at selling her poetry in America was illegal.
C. Phillis’ husband was put into prison for debt in 1778.

8. What is the last paragraph mainly about？
A. Phillis’ marriage.
B. Phillis’ achievements.
C. Phillis’ sufferings as a slave.
D. Phillis’ fight against slavery.
解析： 段落大意题。最后一段围绕菲莉斯所取得的成就展开，
她证明了黑人和白人一样也是有艺术美感的，也是聪明的。她的成
功对废除奴隶制度产生了推动作用。

Floorball has been a sport growing in popularity in the United States
for the past few years. At Saint Martin’s University in Lacey，
Washington， it started as an activity spread by word of mouth， and later
became popular across the university.
David Crawford， the director of recreation （娱乐活动） services
at Saint Martin’s University， felt the sport could have a large success on
their campus.
“I’ve played floor hockey （曲棍球） over the years， but was
always annoyed with the equipment. When I came across floorball， I
immediately saw the potential benefits it had in relation to overall
satisfaction，” said Crawford.
One of the many perks of offering floorball at your university is that it
offers players the same style of sport as hockey， without the high risk of
concussions （脑震荡） and other head-related injuries. “When playing
floorball， players don’t wear helmets， gloves or any of the other
equipment that’s needed in hockey. It is recommended that players wear
eye protection and a mouth guard， but it is not required，” said
Crawford.
While traditional marketing strategies are taken by Saint Martin’s
University to publicize the sport， informal sessions have really been what
spread the word about the popularity and benefits of the sport. These
informal sessions include anything from offering the sport as an option at
monthly “late night” events to having the basketball and volleyball
teams use floorball as conditioning practice.
Crawford explained how it is important to understand how beneficial
the sport can be if offered at other universities. It is inexpensive， it won’t
damage your floors and you can play it on nearly any surface.
“If you have a floor hockey program and it’s in decline （衰落），
you may find with a switch to floorball there may be more interest from
players who aren’t currently playing，” said Crawford. “While floorball
will attract the hockey crowd， it will also attract students looking for
something new and different.”

9. What aspect of floor hockey was Crawford dissatisfied with？
A. Its rules are too strict.
B. It needs a lot of players.
C. Its styles are too traditional.
D. It requires several pieces of equipment.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中的I’ve played floor hockey
（曲棍球） over the years， but was always annoyed with the
equipment.和第四段中Crawford说的话可知，打地板曲棍球所需要
的装备多且复杂，Crawford对此感到不满意。
10. What does the underlined word “perks” in Paragraph 4 mean？
A. Purposes. B. Examples.
C. Advantages. D. Challenges.
解析： 词义猜测题。根据第四段中的it offers players the same
style of sport as hockey， without the high risk of concussions （脑震
荡） and other head-related injuries可知，本段中提到了地板球运动
的一个优势：没有头部受伤的高风险。由此可推断，perks在本段
中指地板球运动的“优势”。
11. What is a more effective method of publicizing floorball at the
university？
A. Using traditional media.
B. Setting up floorball teams.
C. Organizing informal activities.
D. Setting aside a field for floorball.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第五段第一句可知，虽然圣马丁大学
在宣传地板球运动时采用了传统的推广策略，但实际上，非正式
活动是普及这项运动的真正有效的途径。
12. What opinion does Crawford express in the last paragraph？
A. Floorball may be popular with new players.
B. Floorball may replace floor hockey at the campus.
C. There may be a need for saving floor hockey programs.
D. There may be more floorball matches between universities.
解析： 观点态度题。根据最后一段中Crawford所说的you may
find with a switch to floorball there may be more interest from players
who aren’t currently playing和it will also attract students looking for
something new and different可知，Crawford认为地板球运动可能会
吸引那些之前没从事过该项运动的人。

As I was doing my housework yesterday， I chose a playlist by
Jeanette， a Spanish pop singer. As I listened to her， I suddenly became
aware that Jeanette was singing in English and French， so I got excited.
The song that was playing only contained one French lyric. Even so， this
was enough to make me appreciate my knowledge of languages more and
made me realize that people like Jeanette and I can share our love for
languages through music.
Because my family comes from Mexico， I am lucky to be bilingual
（会说两种语言的）， speaking both in Spanish and English.
Furthermore， I’ve been learning French since I was twelve years old and
plan to be a French and Spanish teacher in the future. I’m so thankful that
my parents insisted on speaking only in Spanish to me growing up.
I couldn’t help thinking about how there is a certain quality in Spanish
and French in particular that can attract the English-dominant （英语主导
的） music industry. The Spanish-language pop song Mi Gente （My
People） by Colombian-born J. Balvin， featuring French artist Willy
William， represents a special moment in music， a new sound of a
Latino culture on the rise and being embraced （欣然接受） proudly.
Even though Willy William only sings one French lyric in the song，
French learners like me are content that they can understand that one line.
Furthermore， native French and Spanish speakers should feel proud that
their language is included in such a popular industry. I am proud to hear
Spanish songs on English-speaking radio stations.
We don’t listen to songs simply because we like the rhythm； we
actually appreciate the words. I encourage my fellow students to continue
to learn a second or even third language and immerse （沉浸）
themselves in the culture. Once you get to the level where you understand
what an artist is saying in a foreign language， the feeling of pride is
irreplaceable. Plus， what better way to share your love for French，
Spanish， Italian， etc. than through the universal language of music？

的经历阐释了学习外语的重要性。

13. Why was the author excited when listening to Jeanette？
A. She found Jeanette’s song was her favourite.
B. She felt inspired to explore a new language.
C. She realized she had a great interest in music.
D. She fully understood what Jeanette was singing.
解析： 推理判断题。根据第一段内容和第二段前两句可知，作
者会说西班牙语、英语和法语，因此当听到西班牙流行歌手
Jeanette演唱的那首含有一句法语歌词的英文歌时，她因为能听懂
歌词而兴奋。
14. What is the author’s dream？
A. To come back to Mexico.
B. To teach French and Spanish.
C. To become a bilingual singer.
D. To learn more foreign languages.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段中的plan to be a French and
Spanish teacher in the future可知，会说三种语言的作者想当教法语
和西班牙语的老师。
15. Why does the author mention J. Balvin’s “Mi Gente” in
Paragraph 3？
A. To highly appreciate J. Balvin’s talent in music.
B. To explain why English songs win wide support.
C. To compare J. Balvin’s music style with that of Willy William.
D. To show Spanish and French can be popular in the music industry.
解析： 推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知，作者以哥伦比亚歌
手J. Balvin广受欢迎的单曲Mi Gente为例，阐释了为什么西班牙语
和法语能吸引以英语为主导的音乐界——法语学习者能听懂歌词
内容、法国人和西班牙人会因为他们的语言出现在英语主导的音
乐行业而感到自豪。由此推断，作者提及J. Balvin的单曲是为了说
明西班牙语和法语也可以在音乐界受欢迎。
16. What does the author stress in the last paragraph？
A. It is significant to learn and master new languages.
B. It is a good way to learn a new language through music.
C. It is a must to understand lyrics before listening to foreign songs.
D. It is helpful for teachers to test students’ language skills through music.
解析： 推理判断题。最后一段中作者鼓励像她一样学习外语的
同学们继续学习，她认为当掌握了一门外语时，听懂外语歌词的
那种自豪感是不可替代的。由此推断，作者在最后一段中强调了
学习和掌握外语的重要性。
