Paul 告诉你他对中国文化很感兴趣,希望了解中国古典音乐。请你给他回复一封邮件,内容包括:1.简单介绍中国古典音乐(乐器、音乐风格、和西方音乐的不同等);2.你会送他一张二胡音乐的 CD。参考词汇:古典音乐classicalmusic; 乐器musicalinstrument; 西方音乐westernmusic注意:1.词数 100 左右;2.可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯;3.开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。DearPaul,Howiseverythinggoing?Yours,LiHua课时作业(十). A【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文,主要对音乐奖项的产生进行了简要的介绍。1.A细节理解题。根据第二段第二句和最后一句并结合选项可知,只有A选项没有机会获得音乐奖项,故选A。本题可用排除法。2.B细节理解题。根据最后一段最后两句可知,投票过程的最后一步就是把结果定下来。故选B。3.D主旨大意题。根据对文章的整体理解可知,本文是一篇说明文,主要对音乐奖项的产生进行了简要的介绍,故选D。B【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了中国的传统乐器古筝的历史、发展和种类。4.D推理判断题。根据第一段第三句可推知,许多其他国家的乐器和古筝有联系,故选D。5.C推理判断题。根据第二段中的内容可推知,人们曾用丝绸、金属做琴弦,后来用钢,并没有提到用木头做琴弦,故选C。6.B词义猜测题。根据第三段第三句可推知,“The number of strings on the guzheng has always fluctuated.”的意思是“古筝琴弦的数量一直在改变”,故选B。7.C细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知,并不是所有的音乐家都用21弦的古筝,故选C。.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文,主要对日本老年女子乐队KBG84做了简要的介绍。1.based考查非谓语动词。base和句子谓语is之间没有连词,故用非谓语,且和句子主语the new band构成逻辑上的被动关系,故用过去分词作后置定语。2.a考查冠词。hit在此处是名词,且第一次在文章中出现,故用不定冠词修饰。3.success考查词性转换。与形容词性物主代词their呼应可知,此处用名词形式,即success。4.energetic考查词性转换。根据语境and提示可知,此处与attractive呼应,故用形容词形式,在句子中作表语。5.considering考查介词。此处considering是介词,意为“鉴于”,后跟名词作宾语,符合语境。6.is allowed考查动词时态和语态。allow和句子主语no one构成逻辑上的被动关系,且表示客观的描述,故用一般现在时的被动语态形式。7.highest考查形容词最高级。根据语境one of提示可知,此处表示最高级的含义,修饰名词life expectancies。8.about考查介词。 be particular about意为“对挑剔”,符合语境,故用介词about。9.who考查定语从句。who引导非限制性定语从句,在从句中作主语,修饰先行词Japanese musician Kikuo Tsuchida。10.wonderfully考查词性转换。副词修饰动词、副词、形容词或者整个句子,在句子中作状语,故用副词wonderfully修饰动词perform。.When I was in high school, I wanted to get a scholarship to a university. I liked singing, so I try out for a triedscholarship for music. But I failed to get one. I was real upset. I felt like a failure. I just kept feeling sorry for reallyme. However, after a few day, I decided not to let one single loss to keep me from doing what I loved. But myself days SoI cheered up and devoted myself to sing again. I think that accepting failure is that we need to do first before singing whatwe success eventually. succeed.One possible version:Dear Paul,
