3、 ， 并 在 答 题 卡上 将 该 项 涂 黑 。AGood morning. The program today is about music. The word “music” comes from the Greek word “muse”. The Muses are the goddesses of the arts. Music is only one of the arts. It is like the spoken language, but it uses sounds. Todays program brings together music from different
4、 corners of the world. Who invented music? Who sang the first song? No one knows exactly the answers to these questions. But we know that music plays an important part in almost everyones life. Babies and young children love to hear people singing to them. When they are a little older, they like to
5、sing the songs they have heard. When children go to school, their world of music grows. In the middle grades students take music lessons. When they reach high school, they become more and more interested in listening to pop music.The records we have chosen for you today are from American country mus
6、ic, Indian music, pop music and so on. Music has different meanings for everyone. It can make people happy or it can make them sad. Music is now heard everywhere, in shops, on buses and at home. In this program we shall study the language of music. We shall be trying to find out more about how music
7、 works. We shall try to find out how music says what people feel. It is worth making the effort. Only then can we say why one piece of music is good and another is bad.Now, here comes the music today. I shall explain why they are all good music.21. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. Some kn
8、owledge about music.B. The origin of music.C. Something about the announcer.D. Some questions about music.22. Which of the following is not the purpose of this music program?A. To study the language of music.B. To learn more about music.C. To find out how music expresses peoples feelings.D. To tell
9、us we should listen to music every day.23. What does the announcer think about the function of music in our life?A. It is important to almost everyone.B. It is necessary for the young.C. It plays a great role when we are children.D. It decides our future.24. The text will continue to talk about some
10、 _.A. old and unpopular musicB. nice and popular musicC. songs sung by the young todayD. reasons why some composers（作曲家） play such musicB England is not a big country: from north to south and from east to west it is only about three hundred miles across. But for a small country it has a surprising r
11、ange of climate(多样性的气候) . People who have never visited England or who have visited only one part of it often make the mistake of thinking that it is a cold and wet country. Except for the summer months of June to September, this is probably true of the north of England and the Midlands. In the sout
12、h, however, the climate is much more pleasant. One result is that when people retire(退休)from the job in the north, they often prefer to move down to the south.Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the southwest, which consists of (is made up of)the counties(郡) of Devon and Cornwall, where palm
13、trees, bamboo and many semitropical(亚热带)plants grow well. Flowers and vegetables ripen(成熟)as much as a month earlier than those elsewhere. Farmers in the areas gain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready earlier. In winter there may be several feet of snow in other pa
14、rts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the southwest. This may be one of the reasons why the southwest is one of Englands most popular holiday areas.25. England is a country _.A. with a cold and wet climateB. with a pleasant climateC. with a surprising climateD. with climates of
15、 various kinds26. According to the passage, _.A. flowers and vegetables from Devon are on the market one month earlierB. farmers in the southwest grow as many vegetables and flowers as farmers elsewhereC. people in the southwest have to pay a higher price for vegetables and flowersD. vegetables in C

17、rom 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, h
18、e 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 doesnt even realize that wha
19、t 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 cant understand why everyone is so surprised. “I grew up with music. My mother played the piano and my father pl
20、ayed the guitar. About two years ago, I suddenly decided to sun 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 e
21、vent 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 cant play it. Samuel says confidently,” Its all about super memory I guess I have that gift.”However,
22、Samuels ability to remember things doesnt slop 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.Samuel is still only a teenager. He doesnt know what he wants to do in the future. For now, he is just hap
23、py to play beautiful music and continue his studies.28. What is special about Samuel Osmond?A. He has a gift for writing music.B. He can write down the note he hears.C.

25、oud of his ability to remember things accurately.C. He plays the piano better than many professional pianists.D. He impressed the audience by playing all the musical pieces.31. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. The Qualities of a MusicianB. The Story of a Musical TalentC. Th
26、e importance of Early EducationD. The Relationship between Memory and MusicDForget Cyclists, Pedestrians are Real DangerWe are having a debate about this topic. Here are some letters from our readers. Yes, many cyclists behave dangerously. Many drivers are disrespectful of cyclists But pedestrians a
27、re probably the worse offenders.People of all ages happily walk along the pavement with eyes and hands glued to the mobile phone, quite unaware of what is going on around them. They may even do the same thing while crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing or elsewhere. The rest of us have to evade (
28、避让) them or just stand still to wait for the unavoidable collision.The real problem is that some pedestrians seem to be, at least for the moment, in worlds of their own that are, to them, much more important than the welfare of others.Michael Horan I loved the letter from Bob Brooks about cyclists (
29、Viewpoints, May 29). I am afraid they seem to think they own the roads.I was walking across Altrincharn Road one morning when a cyclist went round me and on being asked what he was doing he shouted at me.The government built a cycle lane on the road but it is hardly used.The police do nothing. What
30、a laugh they are!The cyclists should all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets, fluorescent (发荧光的)jacket and tights at night and in the morning. They should pay some sort of tax and be fined for not wearing them.Carol Harvey Cyclists jump on and off pavements (which are meant for p
31、edestrians), ride at speed along the pavements, and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red.I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the pavement when there was a cycle lane right next to him.Other road users, including horse riders, manage
32、to obey the rules so why not cyclists?Its about time they had to be registered and insured, so when they do hit a pedestrian or a vehicle, or cause an accident, at least they can be traced and there might be an opportunity to claim.JMLWrite to Viewpoints of the newspaper.32. Michael Horan wrote the
33、letter mainly to show that .A. drivers should be polite to cyclistsB. road accidents can actually be avoidedC. some pedestrians are a threat to road safetyD. walking while using phones hum ones eyes33.

And plastic never goes away. Plastic is not biodegradabledestroyed by bacteria or natural process

The oceans contain a lot of chemicals and other pollutants._38_That means harmful material may get into our food supply._39_Human beings cause pollution and they can take steps to stop it. They can use fewer single use product containers
38、and throw plastics away correctly. Plastic recycling programs also workswhere old bottles and other plastics are collected, broken down and used to make new products. We could reuse bottles in our households many times if we wish to, rather than end it after the first use. We could, when we get rid
39、of that plastic, recycle it and reuse it, which replaces the need for raw materials.The report also calls on companies to improve methods for using plastics. _40_And it calls for information about the way plastic is thrown out or removed from use. By putting a new value on plastic, industry has a sp
