The chorus is made up of children aged 8 to 18. Ive been in the chorus for almost five years, and I love the community of “young artists”. Every year, we give a big performance to raise money for the organization. Its the biggest concert of the year and is held at Lincoln Center. A lot of work goes into the final performance.First, we begin learning our music. We usually start by learning the notes, and then we add the words. Someone comes in to teach us the meaning and pronunciation of the lyrics if the words are not in English.Next, we memorize the whole song, even if we only sing part of it. One of the hardest pieces we sang this year was Tjak！， a song inspired by a Balinese Monkey Chant. It has four parts, each with a different rhythm.Once we add dynamics (力度变化) to our songs to give them life, its time to add choreography. Jacquie Bird, the director, tells us to connect the words we sing to our movements as we breathe and count in our heads.As we get closer to the concert night, the rehearsals (彩排) get tougher. Sometimes, we do a quick review, and sometimes we sing the whole song. My knees and arms start to ache. But once we get a break and some food, we come back feeling better. We rehearse on weekends for almost a month beforehand; every moment is important and worth it.The real excitement comes during the rehearsal, when we meet our guest artists. This year, YPC invited Mandy Gonzales, Alexandra Socha, and Time for Three to join us. After hearing that we would work with them, we jumped up and down backstage as quietly as we could.Showtime! We sang with musical guests and performed dances that seemed as if they came straight from a Broadway show. At the end of the night, we screamed with excitement backstage. For all of us, pulling off the biggest performance of the year felt great.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己所在的合唱团一年一次的大型表演的准备工作和演出情况。4Why is a big performance given yearly?ATo collect money for YPC.BTo pick excellent performers.CTo show kids talent for acting.DTo celebrate the success of YPC.解析：选A细节理解题。由第一段中的“Every year, we give a big performance to raise money for the organization.”可知，每年一次的大型表演是为YPC筹集资金。5What does the underlined word “choreography” in Paragraph 4 mean?ALyrics.BGames.CVideos.
