Ⅴ.阅读理解
(2017·全国Ⅰ,C)
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.”
文章大意:本文介绍了举办第一届国际爵士乐日的宗旨、当前爵士乐面临的挑战以及如何让爵士乐重新流行的设想。
1.
Why
did
UNESCO
set
April
30
as
International
Jazz
Day?
__D__
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.
解析:考查细节理解。根据第一段的第二句“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”可知,联合国教科文组织近来把4月30日设立为国际爵士乐日,旨在增强人们对爵士乐价值的认识,故答案为D。
2.
What
does
the
underlined
word
“that”
in
paragraph
3
refer
to?
__C__
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.
解析:考查代词指代。根据语境可知,画线词that指代上段“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”的内容,即爵士乐听众的数量减少并且趋于老龄化,不受年轻人喜欢的现状。
3.
What
can
we
infer
about
Moran's
opinion
on
jazz?
__C__
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.
解析:考查推理判断。根据第五段的内容尤其是“It
has
to
continue
to
move,
because
the
way
the
world
works
is
not
the
same”可知,由于时代在改变,人们的娱乐方式已经发生改变,所以爵士乐应该随着时代改变,才能吸引更多的听众。
4.
Which
of
the
following
can
be
the
best
title
for
the
text?
__A__
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
解析:考查主旨要义。本文介绍了为保护爵士乐,联合国教科文组织设立国际爵士乐日。纵观全文内容尤其是第三至第六段中提到的杰森·莫兰对爵士乐的看法及希望可知,A项“探索爵士乐的未来”作本文标题最佳。
Ⅵ.完形填空
Evelyn
Glennie
was
the
first
lady
of
solo
percussion
in
Scotland.In
an
interview,she
recalled
how
she
became
a
percussion
soloist(打击乐器独奏演员)in
spite
of
her
disability.
“Early
on
I
decided
not
to
allow
the
__1.B__
of
others
to
stop
me
from
becoming
a
musician.I
grew
up
on
a
farm
in
northeast
Scotland
and
began
__2.C__
piano
lessons
when
I
was
eight.The
older
I
got,the
more
my
passion(酷爱)for
music
grew.But
I
also
began
to
gradually
lose
my
__3.B__.Doctors
concluded
that
the
nerve
damage
was
the
__4.D__
and
by
age
twelve,I
was
completely
deaf.But
my
love
for
music
never
__5.A__
me.
“My
__6.D__
was
to
become
a
percussion
soloist,even
though
there
were
none
at
that
time.To

__7.B__
to
hear
music
differently
from
others.I
play
in
my
stocking
feet
and
can
__8.A__
the
pitch
of
a
note(音调高低)by
the
vibrations(振动)I
feel
through
my
body
and
through
my
__9.C__.My
entire
sound
world
exists
by
making
use
of
almost
every
__10.A__
that
I
have.
“I
was
__11.C__
to
be
assessed
as
a
musician,not
as
a
deaf
musician,and
I
applied
to
the
famous
Royal
Academy
of
Music
in
London.No
other
deaf
student
had
__12.A__
this
before
and
some
teachers
__13.D__
my
admission.Based
on
my
performance,I
was
__14.B__
admitted
and
went
to
__15.C__
with
the
academy's
highest
honours.”
“After
that,I
established
myself
as
the
first
full time
solo
percussionist.I
__16.A__
and
arranged
a
lot
of
musical
compositions
since
__17.D__
had
been
written
specially
for
solo
percussionists.”
“I
have
been
a
soloist
for
over
ten
years.
__18.B__
the
doctor
thought
I
was
totally
deaf,it
didn't
__19.A__
that
my
passion
couldn't
be
realized.I
would
encourage
people
not
to
allow
themselves
to
be
__20.D__
by
others.Follow
your
passion;follow
your
heart.They
will
lead
you
to
the
place
you
want
to
go.”
文章大意:英国古典乐打击乐独奏家艾弗玲·葛蓝尼8岁开始学习钢琴到12岁时完全失聪,但是她一直没有放弃自己对音乐的爱好。最终毕业于伦敦皇家音乐学院的她取得了正常人也不及的成功。
1.A.conditions
B.opinions
C.actions
D.recommendations
解析:上下文可以看出应该是“不让别人的看法阻碍自己成为音乐家”。
2.A.enjoying
B.choosing
C.taking
D.giving
解析:“上钢琴课,学弹钢琴”应该用take
piano
lessons。而give
piano
lessons则成了教别人学钢琴了。
3.A.sight
B.hearing
C.touch
D.taste
解析:下一句话中的“completely
deaf”可给出暗示。
4.A.evidence
B.result
C.excuse
D.cause
解析:“医生诊断说神经遭到破坏是她失聪的缘由”。
5.A.left
B.excited
C.accompanied
D.disappointed
解析:leave“离开”;excite“使激动”;accompany“陪伴”;disappoint“使失望”。句意:“我对音乐的热爱从来没有停止(即离开我)”,所以A正确。
6.A.purpose
B.decision
C.promise
D.goal
解析:我的目标是成为一名打击乐器独奏演员。
7.A.turned
B.learned
C.used
D.ought
解析:句意“为了表演,我学会了‘听’不同的音乐”。注意听是加引号的。
8.A.tell
B.see
C.hear
D.smell
解析:tell此处意为“判断出,识别”。句中的“in
my
stocking
feet”意为“只穿袜不穿鞋”。即“我脱下鞋子来演奏,通过身体和想像力来判断音调高低发出的振动”。
9.A.carefulness
B.movement
C.imagination
D.experience
解析:carefulness“细心”;movement“移动,运动”;imagination“想像力”;experience“经验”。葛蓝尼因为听不到,所以应该是凭感觉加上发挥自己的想象力来学习演奏的。
10.A.sense
B.effort
C.feeling
D.idea
解析:sense“感觉器官”,我用几乎每一个感觉器官来形成自己的音乐世界。而feeling仅指“触摸”。
11.A.dissatisfied
B.astonished
C.determined
D.discouraged
解析:be
determined
to
do
sth.“下决心干某事”。
12.A.done

C.advised
D.admitted
解析:“以前从未有失聪的学生这样做”。用had
done
this指代上一句中“申请伦敦皇家音乐学院”一事。
13.A.supported
B.followed
C.required
D.opposed
解析:因为我听不见当然会“有老师反对录取我”。
14.A.usually
B.finally
C.possibly
D.hopefully
解析:finally“最终”。因为我听不见,当然被录取不会很容易,但由于“表演出色,最终还是被录取”。用finally说明被录取不容易。
15.A.study
B.research
C.graduate
D.progress
解析:本题易错选study,但由句意不难看出我不但继续在那里学习而且“毕业时获得了最高的荣誉”。由with
the
academy's
highest
honours可知应用graduate“毕业”。
16.A.wrote
B.translated
C.copied
D.read
解析:因为很少有专为打击乐谱写的曲子,“所以我自己写乐曲”。
17.A.enough
B.some
C.many
D.few
解析:参见16。
18.A.However
B.Although
C.When
D.Since
解析:由上下文可以看出应为让步转折关系,所以应用although。“虽然医生认为我完全失聪,但是这并不就意味着我的爱好不能实现。”
19.A.mean
B.seem
C.conclude
D.say
解析:mean“表明,意味着”,参见18。
20.A.directed
B.guided
C.taught
D.limited
解析:“我要鼓励人们不要让自己受别人的限制。要追求自己的酷爱,遵循自己的心愿。这样你就能达到自己的目标。”

About
150
years
ago,a
German
musician
sat
quietly
at
a
concert
in
Vienna.They
were
playing
for
the
first
time
a
new
symphony(交响乐)
he
had
composed
for
the
first
time.At
the
end
he
turned
to
face
the
people
at
the
concert.They
were
clapping
widely.
__1.A__The
musician
was
Beethoven,one
of
the
greatest
composers
in
the
world.Deaf
people
have
a
hard
time.
__2.E__
Even
as
a
child
Beethoven
did
not
have
a
happy
life.His
father
was
a
singer.But
he
was
lazy
and
drank
a
great
deal.When
the
boy
was
only
four,his
father
decided
to
make
a
musician
of
him.
__3.F__
Whenever
he
did
not
put
his
heart
into
his
practice,his
father
would
be
hard
on
him.
It
is
a
wonder
that
the
boy
did
not
hate
music.
__4.C__
When
he
was
17,he
won
high
praise
from
Mozart,a
great
Austrian
composer.A
few
years
later
Beethoven
went
to
Vienna
to
study
under
Haydn,another
great
Austrian
composer.Soon
he
was
writing
a
great
deal
of
music
himself.But
after
one
illness,he
suddenly
found
himself
deaf.At
that
time
he
was
only
31.What
a
blow
it
was
to
him!
But
this
did
not
stop
Beethoven.He
went
on
composing.
__5.G__
During
his
life,he
composed
about
300
pieces.The
surprising
thing
is
that
he
wrote
some
of
his
best,his
most
beautiful
pieces
after
he
became
deaf.Many
of
them
are
known
and
loved
all
over
the
world.
A.But
he
could
hear
nothing
for
he
was
deaf.
B.However,his
father
didn't
come
to
listen
to
him
play
the
beautiful
music.
C.He
learned
so
fast
that
he
was
able
to
go
around
and
give
concerts
when
he
was
only
11.
D.Beethoven
left
home
and
went
out
to
practice
his
own
music.
E.But
it
is
even
worse
for
a
composer
than
for
anyone
else.
F.So
Beethoven
had
to
practice
hour
after
hour
on
different
musical
instruments.
G.He
wrote
long
pieces
and
short
pieces,happy
ones
and
sad
ones.

Ⅳ.阅读理解
A
(2017·湖南省娄底市五校高一上期中)
There
was
a
man
playing
the
piano
in
a
bar.He
was
a
good
piano
player
and
always
performed
in
this
bar.People
came
in
just
to
hear
him
play.But
one
night,a
customer
told
him
that
he
didn't
want
to
hear
him
just
play
the
piano
any
more.He
wanted
him
to
sing
a
song.
The
man
said,“I
don't
sing.”
But
the
customer
was
persistent(执着的).He
told
the
bar
manager,“I'm
tired
of
listening
to
the
piano.I
want
that
man
to
sing!”
The
manager
shouted
across
the
room,“If
you
want
to
get
paid,sing
a
gong.Our
customers
are
asking
you
to
sing!”
So
he
did.He
sang
a
song.A
piano
player
who
had
never
sung
in
public
did
so
for
the
first
time.And
everyone
was
surprised
by
his
song
“Mona
Lisa”.He
got
lots
of
applause(掌声)that
night
He
had
such
a
talent
for
singing,but
__he
just
had
been
sitting
on
his
talent
for
the
past
years!
If
without
such
a
chance,he
may
have
lived
the
rest
of
his
life
as
a
no name
piano
player
in
a
no name
bar.However,now
he
has
become
one
of
the
best known
singers
in
America.
You,too,have
skills
and
abilities.Maybe
your
“talent”
is
not
as
great
as
the
singer
above,but
it
may
be
better
than
you
think!
And
with
effort,most
skills
can
be
improved.So,in
your
life,you
should
be
brave
enough
to
try
doing
different
things
and
find
out
what
talents
you
really
have!
文章大意:本文通过一个无名的弹琴的酒吧钢琴师被迫唱歌,却发现自己原来还有如此出色的歌喉,最终成为美国很受欢迎的娱乐人物的故事来告诉我们要大胆的表现我们的才能,不要让才能堙没了。
1.
Why
did
the
man
start
to
sing?
__C__
A.Because
he
wanted
to
make
more
money.
B.Because
the
bar
manager
said
he
liked
his
song.
C.Because
the
manager
asked
him
to
sing
at
the
request
of
a
customer.
D.Because
he
wanted
to
show
everyone
that
he
had
a
talent
for
singing.
解析:考查细节理解题。根据短文中“I'm
tired
of
listening
to
the
piano.I
want
the
man
to
sing!”可知,那名顾客厌烦了听钢琴,所以他想让弹钢琴的那个人唱首歌,故选C项。
2.
What
do
you
think
of
the
bar
manager?
__B__
A.Strict.
B.Rude.
C.Patient.
D.Kind.
解析:考查推理判断题。根据第三段提到“If
you
want
to
get
paid,sing
a
gong.Our
customers
are
asking
you
to
sing!”酒吧经理说,如果他想赚到钱,就要按照客人的要求去唱歌,说明他是很粗鲁,故选B项。
3.What
do
the
underlined
words“he
just
had
been
sitting
on
his
talent”
probably
mean?
__A__
A.He
didn't
discover
his
talent.
B.He
didn't
play
the
piano.
C.He
had
no
talent
for
singing.
D.He
hated
to
sing.
解析:考查细节理解题。根据文意和划线短语所在的句子可知,一个弹钢琴的人,他从来没想过自己会唱歌,当他唱了之后,才发现自己唱得还不错,即他的才能被忽视了,故选A项。
4.What
can
we
learn
from
the
last
paragraph?
__C__
A.Some
people
really
have
no
skills
or
abilities.
B.None
of
us
is
as
great
as
the
singer.
C.Sometimes
through
effort
we
can
know
our
talents.
D.No
skills
can
be
improved
even
if
you
try
your
best.
解析:考查推理判断题。根据最后一段提到So,in
your
life,your
should
be
brave
enough
to
try
doing
different
things
and
find
out
what
talents
you
really
have在我们的生活中,只要你足够的勇敢,你会发现你的天赋所在,故选C项。
B
Most
people
want
to
know
how
things
are
made.They
honestly
admit,however,that
they
hardly
know
a
thing
when
it
comes
to
understanding
how
a
piece
of
music
is
made.Where
a
composer
(作曲家)
begins,how
he
manages
to
keep
going—in
fact,how
and
where
he
learns
his
trade—all
are
__covered
in
complete
darkness.The
composer,in
short,is
a
man
of
mystery
(神秘).
One
of
the
first
things
the
common
man
wants
to
know
about
is
the
part
inspiration
(灵感)
plays
in
a
composer's
work.He
finds
it
difficult
to
believe
that
composers
are
not
much
interested
in
that
question.Writing
music
is
as
natural
for
the
composer
as
eating
or
sleeping
for
all.Music
is
something
that
the
composer
happens
to
have
been
born
for.
The
composer,therefore,does
not
say
to
himself:
“Do
I
feel
inspired?”
He
says
to
himself:
“Do
I
feel
like
working
today?”
And
if
he
feels
like
working,he
does.It
is
more
or
less
like
saying
to
himself:
“Do
I
feel
sleepy?”
If
you
feel
sleepy,you
go
to
sleep.If
you
don't
feel
sleepy,you
stay
up.If
the
composer
doesn't
feel
like
working,he
doesn't
work.It's
as
simple
as
that.
文章大意:美妙的音乐旋律,往往让我们身心愉悦,我们或许想知道,作曲家们是怎样把它们创作出来的?作曲家是不是很神秘?
5.What
would
be
the
best
title
for
the
text?
__A__
A.Composer:
a
Man
of
Mystery
B.Practice
Makes
Good
Music
C.Relation
between
Sleeping
and
Music
D.Music:
Product
of
Nature
解析:主旨大意题。从本文第一段末句The
composer,in
short,is
a
man
of
mystery.可推知A项为本文的题目最佳。
6.The
underlined
words
“covered
in
complete
darkness”
in
Paragraph
1
most
probably
mean
__D__.
A.difficult
to
be
made
B.without
any
light
C.black
in
color
D.not
known
解析:词义猜测题。be
covered
with/in被……覆盖着,在这里应是引申义“不被人知道”,故选D。
7.Most
people
seem
to
think
that
a
composer
__C__.
A.finds
it
difficult
to
write
music
B.considers
it
important
to
have
a
good
rest
C.should
like
to
talk
about
inspiration
D.never
asks
himself
very
simple
questions
解析:推理判断题。从第二段前两句话可知:大多数普通人都想知道作曲家们的灵感到底在他们的工作中起多大作用,而作曲家们对这个问题不感兴趣,在他们看来那是很自然的事,故选C。
8.The
author
will
most
probably
agree
that
composers
__A__.
A.are
born
with
a
gift
for
music
B.are
people

C.work

D.know

lot

composer
happens
to
have
been
born
for.可知答案为A。
