没有音乐的世界是不可想象的，不管有没有意识到，音乐在我们每个人的生活中扮演一个重要的角色。通过音乐，孩子可以进入一个美丽的世界，从内心表达自己，感受独自做事的喜悦，学会照顾别人，发展思想，并使身体强健。
Music
To me，life without music would not be exciting.I realize that this is not true for everybody.Many people get along quite well without going to the concert，and listening to the record.But music plays an important part in everyone's life，whether he realizes it or not.Try to imagine，for example，what films or TV plays would be like without music.Would the feelings，the moving plot，and the greatest interests，be so exciting or dramatic？I'm not sure about it.
Now，we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning-the kind of music we hear in the concert hall.But if we look at some parts of music more closely，we discover them in our everyday life too—in the rhythm of the sea，the melody of a bird in the woods and so on.So music surely has meaning for everyone，in some way or other.And，of course，it has special meaning for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music.
It is well said，“Through music a child enters into a world of beauty，expresses himself from his heart，feels the joy of doing things alone，learns to take care of others，develops his mind and makes his body strong.”

【导读】 《狮子、女巫与魔衣橱》(The Lion，the Witch and the Wardrobe)是英国作家C·S·路易斯所著的《纳尼亚传奇》系列奇幻儿童文学小说第二部。《狮子、女巫与魔衣橱》叙述四个在第二次世界大战中逃难的英国学生在他们的逃难处，意外地发现了一个神秘而充满魔力的衣柜。他们发现衣柜竟是通往另一个神奇世界“纳尼亚”的通道。当他们得知这个新的世界被白女巫的魔咒变成了一个常年冰天雪地的世界后，这些充满好奇心的少年们为了打败女巫与解除魔咒开始了一场惊心动魄的探险和奇遇。
【节选】
The Lion，the Witch and the Wardrobe
Once there were four children whose names were Peter，Susan，Edmund and Lucy.This story is about something that happened to them when they were sent away from London during the war because of the air-raids.They were sent to the house of an old Professor who lived in the heart of the country，ten miles from the nearest railway station and two miles from the nearest post office.He had no wife and he lived in a very large house with a housekeeper called Mrs Macready and three servants.He himself was a very old man with shaggy white hair which grew over most of his face as well as on his head，and they liked him almost at once; but on the first evening when he came out to meet them at the front door he was so odd-looking that Lucy (who was the youngest) was a little afraid of him，and Edmund (who was the next youngest) wanted to laugh and had to keep on pretending he was blowing his nose to hide it.
But when next morning came there was a steady rain falling，so thick that when you looked out of the window you could see neither the mountains nor the woods nor even the stream in the garden.
“Of course it would be raining！” said Edmund.They had just finished their breakfast with the Professor and were upstairs in the room he had set apart for them—a long，low room with two windows looking out in one direction and two in another.
狮子、女巫与魔衣橱
从前，有这么四个孩子，他们的名字分别叫彼得、苏珊、爱德蒙和露茜。下面讲的故事就是他们亲身经历过的事情。那是在战争时期，为了躲避空袭，他们被送离伦敦，来到一位老教授的家里。这位老教授的家在英国的中部，离最近的火车站有十英里远，离最近的邮局也有两英里。他没有老伴，和女管家玛卡蕾蒂太太以及另外三个仆人一起住着一所很大很大的房子。教授已经老态龙钟，一头蓬乱的白发。孩子们一来就喜欢上了他。但在第一天傍晚，当他从大门口出来迎接他们的时候，他的这副怪模样使年龄最小的露茜感到有点害怕，而爱德蒙呢(除了露茜他年龄最小)，却忍不住要笑，他只好一次又一次地装作擦鼻涕，这才没有笑出声来。
但第二天早晨，却淅沥沥地下起雨来了。雨很大，透过窗子向外望去，你既看不见山，也看不见树林，甚至连花园里的小溪也看不见。
“没有办法，天大概还要下雨！”爱德蒙说。他们刚和教授一起吃完早饭，就来到楼上教授给他们安排的房间。这是一个狭长而又低矮的房间，两头各开着两扇窗子可以看到外面。
[知识积累]
1．air-raid n． 空袭
2．housekeeper n. 女管家
3．shaggy adj. 毛发蓬松的
4．odd-looking adj. 相貌奇特的
5．steady adj. 稳定的，不变的
6．But when next morning came there was a steady rain falling，so thick that when you looked out of the window you could see neither the mountains nor the woods nor even the stream in the garden.
分析：该句中when next morning came作时间状语，so...that结构后面跟有一个时间状语从句，when you looked out of the window是从句，主句中用neither...nor...连接并列宾语。
[文化链接]
《纳尼亚传奇》是路易斯于1950年至1956年间创作的七本系列魔幻故事，分别为《魔法师的外甥》《狮子、女巫与魔衣橱》《能言马与男孩》《凯斯宾王子》《黎明踏浪号》《银椅》和《最后一战》。故事中的“纳尼亚王国”是一个神秘奇幻的世界，在这些故事中，小主人公们或凭借一枚魔法戒指，或通过一扇衣柜大门等各种奇妙方法进入奇幻世界纳尼亚王国。故事以正义与邪恶的斗争为线索展开，他们在伟大的狮王阿斯兰的帮助下，通过英勇的冒险和战斗，一次次战胜邪恶，拯救纳尼亚的人们并保卫了这个神奇而充满欢乐的国度。每个故事独立成册，但形散神不散，七个主题构成一部史诗般的整体。

Popular music in America is what every student likes.Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class，after class，and at lunch.Students with cars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.
Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work.They also listen to the news about sports，the weather，and the life of American people.Most of the radio programmes are music.
Pop or popular music singers make much money.They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in many places.Once the popular singer is heard all over the country，young people buy his or her tape.Some of the money from these tapes goes to the singer.Wherever the singer goes，all the young people want to meet him or her.Now the singer has become a national star.
There are other kinds of music that are important to Americans.One is called folk music.It tells stories about the common life of Americans.Another is called western or country music.This is started by cowboys who would sing at night to the cows they are watching.Today，any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music.

According to Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital，the 5G emergency rescue system，which puts artificial intelligence (AI)，augmented reality (增强现实)，virtual reality and drone (无人机) applications together，allows a series of medical checks including blood tests，electrocardiograms and ultrasounds (心电图和超声波) to be given to patients right away.The information can then be transferred back to the hospital in real time, which greatly saves time in rescuing patients.
The rescue system also helped a 72-year-old patient who had his bone broken in the earthquake.According to a report from Chinanews.com, a temporary ward supported by 5G technology was established at the epicenter of the disaster zone for consultation with doctors from Chengdu，as the aged patient had a previous history of high blood pressure and cerebral infarction (脑梗塞)，which made him need more careful treatment.
“The 5G-based network thoroughly solved the problems of poor definition and distortion(失真) of images，as well as interrupted signal transmission，” said Li Wei，director of the emergency center of Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital.

(base) on church customs.For almost 600 years，church calendars have been marked 44. red to show special holy days.Today's calendars are still marked that way with the dates of holidays and special days printed in red.
The expression “a red-letter day” is often heard in everyday life.“A red-letter day” is a day 45. people are especially happy.It may be a day that you have long waited for，a wedding day，for example.Or it may be a day with 46. happy surprise.You might tell a friend that yesterday was a red-letter day，because you won some money in the lottery.“Rolling out the red carpet” is another 47. (common) heard expression，48. describes an especially warm welcome of any kind.A city may “roll out the red carpet” for its baseball team，when the team 49. (arrive) home after winning a championship.
Red is also used in some expressions that are not happy.To be caught “red-handed” is to be caught 50. (perform) a wrong act.

Hello！My name is Lisa，and I am a lioness.I live on the open grasslands of Africa with my family.Lions living in a group are called a pride.
My father is strong and powerful.He and his cousin are the leaders of our pride.
The other members are my mother，her sisters，and their children.
The area where a pride lives is big! We roar(咆哮) to tell each other where we are and to warn strangers to stay away.
Meet my new baby brother.His name is Leon.See the spots on his fur? We lions are born spotted or striped (有条纹的)．As we grow older，the spots gradually disappear.
Lionesses usually spend their entire lives with their birth pride，but Leon will leave when he is about three years old.He'll run around with a male friend or relative for a few years until they take over a pride of their own.
But for now，we have lots of fun together.We often play and fight for hours，which can help us practice skills that we will need for hunting.
We lions keep ourselves very clean.Just like a house cat，I clean my fur with my tongue.We clean for each other，too，to show we're friends.
We lions like to sleep for most of the day.We hunt in the cool evening.Female lions hunt more often than male lions.We work together as a team.At the right moment，we attack and kill our prey.Then we share it.Male lions usually eat first.Females eat next.Baby lions are the last to eat.The smallest one gets the least food.
Since we are full，it's time to go to find a nice place for a sleep.Bye!

It was August 2nd，1927.The news had spread fast.A man named Ralph Peer was coming to the city of Bristol.He wanted to make recordings of local people singing and playing musical instruments.And he said he would pay fifty dollars for each song recorded.That was a lot of money in those days.Many people came to Bristol that day to play for Mr.Peer.But one group seemed to have just the sound that he was looking for.They were a man named A．P.Carter，his wife Sara，and her cousin Maybelle.They called themselves the Carter Family.
Their first recordings were sent to radio stations throughout the United States.Many listeners were surprised at what they heard.Instead of classical or jazz songs that radio stations usually played，a new sound was born.The Carter Family sounded different.They did not sound as if they had taken music lessons.But it did not matter.The people in poor rural areas thought they sounded just like their neighbors.
The Carters sang songs about living in the mountains of Virginia，Tennessee，and North Carolina.They sang about the love of a young man for a special girl.They sang about the beauty of nature.They sang about death and sadness.And they sang religious songs that told of the hope for a better life after death.
A．P.Carter sang in the group and also searched for new songs.He often traveled long distances to small towns in the south-eastern United States.He wanted to hear the songs that local people sang in their communities.He wrote down the words but kept the music in his memory.When he returned home，he helped Sarah and Maybelle fit them to the Carter Family musical style.
The Carter Family soon became famous.They recorded more songs.They traveled to many cities and towns in the eastern United States to perform.Thousands of people heard them sing and bought their recordings.Some people estimate that within three years，the Carter Family sold three hundred thousand recordings.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The holiday season is a favorite for many.There are always parties with family，friends，relatives or work colleagues. 11 But at the same time，it can also make you feel unhappy，especially because there is always the chance that you'll be asked to answer awkward(尴尬的) questions during these gatherings.
I think you had better have a general idea of who you might meet or the questions some people may ask you.It's a good idea to prepare answers to some awkward questions. 12 Think of ways you might be comfortable answering questions，and have some basic answers in your head.
My family and I recently attended a holiday event. 13 However，because I knew several people who would most likely be attending the event，I was able to take some time to think about how I wanted to answer the questions they could ask me.This doesn't mean that I spent the days before the party memorizing answers and recited the answers to the questions like a robot. 14
15 So I found it most effective to prepare by having several stories and answers，or even questions for your companion，in order to make sure the conversation runs smoothly.This is just as you would practice for a job interview.
A．Communicating with others around you can be fun.
B．Ask some questions of whoever you are speaking with.
C．And you may even practice a bit beforehand if necessary.
D．Rather，I simply decided what I was comfortable telling them.
E．Some awkward questions might be asked at the holiday parties.
F．I was asked a few awkward questions about my work situation.
G．You have no way of knowing exactly what questions you may be asked.
【语篇解读】 本文主要讲述了假期里的聚会上可能会被问到一些尴尬的问题，最好的解决办法是提前准备好答案。
11．A [根据后面的“But at the same time，it can also make you feel unhappy”可知，和身边的人交往可能会充满乐趣，但也可能会让人感到不高兴。]
【易错分析】 如果只考虑前面的“There are always parties with family，friends，relatives or work colleagues”，E项是可以接受的，但与后面的“But at the same time...”在意思和逻辑上就完全不通顺了。
12．C [根据前面的“It's a good idea to prepare answers to some awkward questions”可知，提前想好怎么回答这些问题是个不错的主意，如果有必要的话，甚至可以提前演练一下。]
13．F [根据前面的“My family and I recently attended a holiday event”可知，最近我和家人参加一个假期聚会，我就被问了几个关于我的工作状况的尴尬问题。]
14．D [根据前面的句子可知，这并不意味着我事前花上好几天时间来记答案，然后像机器人一样背答案，恰恰相反，我只是决定回答什么自己才觉得不尴尬。]
15．G [根据后面的“So I found it most effective to prepare...”可知，因为你没法确切地知道会问什么，所以我发现提前准备好不同的答案效果会更好。]

Finally came the day when I had to 24 to myself and others that with 25 there is no limit to your achievements.

But if you're like me，there 37. (be) always something we want to change.For me，that's changing my 38. (day) habits to help me reach my goals.The problem is that many people just don't believe they are the type of person who can achieve that goal.Positive(积极的) thinking is the key 39. any kind of achievement.
So today's quick happiness tip is simple：40. (think) about the goal you want to achieve，imagine the kind of person who has already achieved that goal or 41. (create) that habit，and pretend you are that person.
Let's take a quick example：If I want to start running，to make running a daily habit，I think about 42. (run) I know or have read about.I read about their habits，their lifestyle，and imagine 43. it's like to be them.Then，I pretend I'm a runner myself.
And here's the magic：it becomes true! Just by 44. (pretend) it I become a runner.I think and act like one.And 45. I'm a runner，what do I do every day？I run.This magical trick can work for any goal，and for any person.Imagine that you are that person，and you will be.

One morning，Molly handed me two bags.One regular lunch paper bag，and the one with staples(订书钉) and paperclips(回形针)．
“Why two bags？”“The other one is something else.”“What's in it？”“Just some stuff.Take it with you.”I stuffed both bags into my briefcase(公文包)，kissed the child and rushed off.
At midday，while hurriedly swallowing down my real lunch，I tore open Molly's bag and shook out the contents.Two hair ribbons，three small stones，a plastic dinosaur，a pencil，a tiny seashell，a marble，a used lipstick，a small doll，two chocolate bars and 13 pennies.
I smiled.How charming！Rising to work，I swept the desk clean into the wastebasket—leftover lunch，Molly's junk and all.There wasn't anything in there I needed.
That evening Molly came to stand beside me while I was reading the paper.“Where's my bag？”“What bag？”“You know，the one I gave you this morning.”“I left it at the office，why？”“I forgot to put this note in it.”She handed over the note.“Besides，I want it back.”“Why？”“Those are my things in the bag，Daddy，the ones I really like.I thought you might like to play with them，but now I want them back.You didn't lose the bag，did you，Daddy？”Tears puddled in her eyes.
“Oh，no，I just forgot to bring it home，”I lied.“Bring it tomorrow，okay？”As she hugged my neck with relief，I unfolded the note that had not gotten into the bag：“I love you，Daddy.”
Oh.And uh-oh.I looked long at the face of my child.She had given me her treasures—all that a 7-year-old held dear.Love in a paper bag，and I had missed it—not only missed it，but had thrown it away because“there wasn't anything in there I needed”．It wasn't the first or the last time I felt ashamed wearing the title of father.

【参考范文】
It was a long trip back to the office.I picked up the wastebasket and poured the contents on my desk.I was carefully sorting it all out.After removing the dirt off and spraying the whole thing with breath freshener to kill the smell of food.I carefully smoothed out the bag and put the treasures inside.I carried the whole thing home gingerly，like an injured kitten.That evening，I returned it to Molly．After dinner，I asked Molly to tell me about the stuff in the bag，and so she took it all out a piece at a time and placed the objects in a row on the dining room table.Everything had a story，a memory，or was attached to dreams and imaginary friends.I managed to say“I see”very wisely several times.And，as a matter of fact，I did see.
To my surprise，Molly gave the bag to me once again several days later.The same bag and same stuff inside.I felt forgiven，and trusted and loved.And a little more comfortable wearing the title of father.Over several months，the bag with the note in went with me from time to time.In time Molly turned her attention to other things.She found other treasures，lost in new games，and grew up.I was left holding the bag.She gave it to me one morning and never asked for its return.And so I have it still.

Listening to music is considered a good thing for adults.Indeed it is.Scientific studies have proven it.Music has so many good effects on our body，mind and mood that this world will certainly not be a good place without music.Then，is music good for children? Some parents think so and let their children learn or listen to music.But some parents don't know the importance of music to children.Here are some reasons why music is important to children.
First，music is good for children's intelligence.Studies have proved that children who learn music are likely to have higher intelligence than those who have no interest in or dislike music.This is because the brain gets stimulated (刺激) by the rhythm and tone of music.
Music also has soothing (抚慰的) effect on children and helps remove their stress.Today's children are under a lot of stress from schoolwork.Being under too much stress impairs children's health.Luckily，listening to music can help them feel better.
Music can improve children's moods.Some children are sad by nature.They seem to be lost in their own thoughts and don't take interest in their surroundings.In such cases，a method known as “music therapy” comes to their rescue.It changes their moods and places a new kind of spirit in them.
Music is also a universal language that children ought to learn.Our world has become a global village.People are getting more and more interested in other cultures and countries.Music can help them in understanding foreign cultures.
Now we can say that music is very important not only to adults but also to children.So children should be encouraged to learn music or listen to music.

I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday.The advertisement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theatre box in Richland Hills any day between 10：00 and 4：00.Since I work from 9：00 to 5：30，the only time I could go to the theatre was during my 45-minute lunch break.Unfortunately，the theatre is on the other side of the town，and the bus service between my office and Richland Hills is not very good.But if you are lucky，you can make the round trip in 45 minutes.
Last Monday，I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for the bus.By the time I saw one come around the corner，there was not enough time left to make the trip.So I gave up and went back to the office.The same thing happened on Tuesday，and again the next day.On Thursday，my luck changed.I got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre in exactly twenty minutes.
When I got there，however，I found a long line of people at the office.I heard one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour.Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line，I caught the next bus and headed back across the town.By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi.It was expensive，but I felt it would be worth it to hear the concert.The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes，but it felt like an hour to me.When I got to the theatre，I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line.The reason，however，I quickly discovered，was that they had already sold all the tickets.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
On a dark winter day in Russia in 1896，Sergei Prokofiev sat by a piano next to his mother.She was helping him compose (作曲) his first piece of music.Sergei was only five years old.
He had overheard his parents discussing a terrible famine (饥荒) in India.The picture Sergei had of those hungry people in his mind caused him to write a story，in the form of musical notes.Sergei could not read music，so he picked out a tune on the piano keys，and his mother recorded the notes.Sergei titled it Indian Gallop.
Sergei's mother began giving him piano lessons for 20 minutes a day，and his ability grew quickly.She had a great love for music，too，and Sergei often lay awake in bed at night and listened to her play the piano.
Sergei's parents found a famous music teacher for him.The teacher shouted at Sergei when he didn't practice reading and playing music.Sergei later wrote，“I wanted to compose great musical plays，and instead I was given all sorts of boring tasks.” Yet he persisted with his studies and grew up to be a great composer.
In 1936 a children's theater asked Sergei to write music that would teach children about different instruments.He was happy and wrote the piece in a week，calling it Peter and the Wolf.
Sergei's Peter and the Wolf was enjoyed by children as well as adults.The first time Sergei played the piece on the piano，the children listening to it loved it so much that they made him play the ending three extra times.He was excited.
Today Sergei Prokofiev is remembered not only for his contributions (贡献) to classical music，but also for his sense of fun.

One of the most famous buildings in the United States is Carnegie Hall，the home of classical and popular music concerts in New York.Carnegie Hall is known not just for its beauty and history，but also for its amazing sound.Carnegie Hall is named after Andrew Carnegie，who paid for its construction.Construction of Carnegie Hall began in 1890 and the official opening night was on May 5，1891.
The hall was owned by the Carnegie family until 1924 when it was sold to Robert E．Simon.The building became very old and in 1960，the new owner made plans to destroy it and build an office block.Isaac Stem led a group of people who fought to save Carnegie Hall and finally，the city of New York bought it for $5 million.It was then fixed up between 1983 and 1995.
Advertisements and stories in newspapers about how Carnegie Hall needed help to recover its history led people to send in old concert programmes and information from all over the world.Over 12，000 concert programmes were received and with these it was possible to make a proper record of Carnegie Hall's concert history.
Carnegie Hall is actually made up of several different halls，but the Main Hall，now called the Isaac Stem Auditorium，is the most famous.The hall itself can hold an audience of 2，804 in five levels of seating.
Because the best and most famous musicians of all time have played at Carnegie Hall，it is the dream of most musicians who want to be great to play there.This has led to a very old joke which is now part of Carnegie Hall's history.Question：“How do I get to Carnegie Hall？” Answer：“Practise，practise，practise.”
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了有号称“世界一流音响设备”的卡内基音乐厅，并讲述它的历史与辉煌。

Three years ago when I was just a freshman in the high school，the busy spring season was coming quickly.When I was preparing to play the saxophone (萨克斯管) in my school's music group for the Music Year，players who prepared for the softball tryouts (选拔赛) were just around the corner.
It was only the second day of our training，a Tuesday.The players were hitting balls as training.The field of training was poorly set up.However，two lines were formed in both the right and the left field as the players hit the ball from the line towards the center field.And then the only thing that I could remember when I woke up was that I was hit by the ball.And I had lost my front tooth.As one could imagine，I was scared.With the Music Year only four days away，it was vexatious．
I felt so disappointed on the way home and planned to give up for I didn't know whether I could play the saxophone well without my front tooth.Then I met my lovely neighbor，Kathy.She was a kind girl.After she knew what I was worrying，she encouraged me to go on my way to the Music Year.And she said I needed to go to the dentist and she would go along with me.
After going to the dentist and getting my tooth fixed，I went home and went to bed after taking the medicine.The following days，I practised the saxophone with other members.I could also do well as before，and I expected I would perform well in the Music Year.By the way，Kathy was the one I needed to say two words for her encouragement.

D [词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“And I had lost my front tooth.As one could imagine，I was scared.With the Music Year only four days away...”可知，作者受伤了并且仅剩四天时间就要到音乐年了，可推知此处是说突发状况令人烦恼。]

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
For many years，people have been making the same old statements about video games，but it turns out many times，they're wrong. 1
They're making us smarter.
2 More surprising，these games can increase attention.But only some video games have these effects.Playing Candy Crush or Angry Birds won't provide any of these benefits.
3
Top-selling games such as Call of Duty tend to be marketed to men，and 15 percent of men describe themselves as “gamers” compared with 6 percent of women.But the latest information shows that 40 percent of players are women.There are also more adult women players than boys younger than 18 who play.
Violent games cause real-life violence.
The American Psychological Association did find a connection between violent video games and short-term increases in aggression (好斗)． 4 Frustration (挫败) or competition，rather than violent pictures，might be leading to the feelings of aggression，these researchers say.
They're bigger than movies.
It was reported that Pac-Man had made about U．S.$ 1.2 billion—three times as much as Star Wars.True，but that doesn't include how much is spent on DVDs or TV channels that show movies.Plus，when Grand Theft Auto V made U．S.$1 billion，only 20 million people bought the game.When The Force Awakens made U．S.$1 billion，100 million tickets were sold. 5
A．They're for men.
B．People cannot stop playing them.
C．Now，let's put an end to some of them.
D．But many scholars don't agree with these findings.
E．So，movies are still more popular and come out ahead.
F．They were too violent and taught children not to value life.
G．Studies have found that “action games” improve hand-eye movement.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。都说玩游戏可以使人变得更聪明，都说只有男性才玩游戏……其实不然。
1．C [根据该空前一句中的the same old statements about video games和they're wrong可知，多年以来人们关于游戏的多种说法其实是错误的，再结合下文一一破解其中的四种说法可知，C项内容符合该处语境。]
2．G [根据该空后一句中的these games can increase attention可知，G项中improve hand-eye movement与之相呼应，并共同构成下文中的these effects。]
3．A [根据该段中的tend to be marketed to men和40 percent of players are women以及more adult women players可知，该段主要介绍女性游戏玩家也不在少数。由此可知，该段所针对的谬论是“游戏专为男性而设计”。]
4．D [该空前的find a connection...in aggression(好斗)和该空后的Frustration(挫败)or competition...aggression这两种观点截然相反，因此划线处表示转折，D项“很多学者不同意美国心理学会的发现”符合该处语境。后一句中的these researchers即指代D项中的many scholars。]
5．E [根据前两句的内容可知，Grand Theft Auto V这款游戏创收10亿美元时，仅有两千万人买该游戏，然而电影The Force Awakens的票房到10亿美元时却有1亿人买票观影。由此可知，电影的群众面还是比游戏要广，因此电影还是领先于游戏并且更受欢迎。]

(you) next vacation.
【语篇解读】 好时公园有神奇的游乐设施，那里的巧克力也很有名，是孩子们的天堂。
1．attractions [上文介词of后为3个并列的名词(短语)，即fantastic rides，shows与空格处并列，故此处应用名词的复数形式。]
2．will make [上文时间状语从句中用一般现在时代替一般将来时，而主句里应用一般将来时表示将来可能发生的事情。]
3．daily [设空处在动词后，一般用副词，提示词为day，其副词形式为daily。]
4．a [此处表示一个有两个成年人和一个孩子的家庭，表泛指，故应用不定冠词。]
5．to choose [分析句子结构可知空格处应作后置定语修饰前面的名词rides。]
6．be entertained [分析句子结构可知主语you与动词entertain 之间为动宾关系，故应用被动语态；空格前有情态动词can，故填be entertained。]
7．performances [perform为动词，由空格前的many bands'可知，此处应填名词的复数形式，故填performances。]
8．it [此处it指代上文提到的名词the show。]
9．that/which/不填 [空格处在定语从句中作动词enjoy的宾语，因此，尽管先行词是a place，也不可用where，应用that/which或不填。]
10．your [空格处需要形容词性物主代词，所用填your。]

Well，these are just some of the names that were well-known in the music scene of the 80s and early 90s.The 80s pop music scene was an important step to the popularity (普及) of present-day music.A new wave in the music scene was introduced，which made such music styles as punk rock，rap music and the MTV popular.Although it was an end to the old 60s and 70s styles，it was also the beginning of something big.The popularity of music videos meant that artists now replaced their guitar-based music with visual displays.A new wave of artists came on the scene and the entire industry developed quickly.
The most famous 80s pop music video is Michael Jackson's Thriller.Introduced in 1982，few people can forget the video not only because of its never-before-seen images，but also because of the popularity it received.Think too of how 80s pop music changed the lives of people who grew up in the 80s.Ask a young man today to tell you the names of the “New Kids on the Block” and he will start talking about the neighbor kids who just moved in.These are not the answers you might have heard in the 80s.Though today's young men do not recognize how cool 80s pop music was，most people will always remember it for what it was and these are happy memories they will always love.
Some of the 80s pop music legends (传奇人物) include Madonna，U2，AeroSmith and of course the King of Pop Michael Jackson.Let's not forget Prince，Tina Turner，Phil Collins and Motown's Lionel Ritchie.Some of these musicians played music that has stood the test of time.Undoubtedly，the 80s pop music scene will live on for many more years to come.
