I tried as hard as I could to remain calm, but my heart was racing. I stared down at my sweat-covered, shaking hands. I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were real people. They were not just my mum and dad, who would say, “Good job!” even if I messed up the entire piece. What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes? As it turned out, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight (聚光灯) was waiting for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat. Slowly I walked to the mud-brown piano in the center of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golf-ball-sized lump (隆起部分) in my throat and sat down. Slowly, I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory (象牙色的) keys. As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more unsure of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my years of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practised this piece so many times that I could play it backwards if requested. Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically (自动地). My eyes burned holes into (were fixed on) the pages in front of me. There was no way that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this to myself, I leaned forward and focused carefully on the music. When I came to the end of the page, a warning went off inside my head: DONT MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE! Needless to say, I obeyed myself with all my heart and mind. And, proud of my “page-turning” feat (技艺), I finished the rest of the piece without making a single mistake. After the final note died away, a celebration went into action inside my head. I had finished. I had mastered the impossible.44. The author was nervous before the performance because _. A. her mother and father werent present B. the strong spotlight was shining onto the stage C. she hadnt mastered the entire piece D. she had never performed in public before45. The underlined phrase “mess up” in Paragraph 3 probably means _.A. put into disorder B. forget about C. stop halfwayD. do well in46. The author _. A. didnt make any mistake in the performance B. felt better at the beginning of the performance C. paid all attention to nothing but her performance D. lost her concentration (注意力) sometimes during the performance47. What did the author feel about her performance? A. She thought it was comfortable and successful. B. She thought it was very difficult but successful. C. She thought she had never made a mistake during the performance. D. She thought she played through the piece carefully but light-heartedly.(D) For Chinese, its time for dragon boat racing and Zongzi. But in South Korea, wrestling and swing play are the highlights. However, both events go by the same name the Dragon Boat Festival. It falls on May 5th of the lunar calendar. One festival, two cultures. Does one nation have the right to call it its own? It has been reported that South Korea will ask the United Nations Educational, Social and Cultural Organization (UNESCO联合国教科文组织) to make the celebration its cultural heritage (文化遗产). If successful, people from other countries may see the Dragon Boat Festival as a Korean creation.As the birthplace of the yearly event more than 2,000 years ago, China is not happy with the situation (情况). “It would be a shame if another country successfully made a traditional Chinese festival part of its own cultural heritage before China,” said Zhou Heping, deputy cultural minister. The Ministry of Culture is even thinking of making its own application (申请) to UNESCO, covering all traditional Chinese festivals, including the Dragon Boat event.“I dont like some of the food eaten at the festival, but I am shocked by South Koreas move,” said Jin Yutong, a Senior One student. “We should protect the cultural heritage left by our ancestors (祖先).”It is thought that the festival is held in memory of the great poet Qu Yuan (340278BC), who lived in the State of Chu during the Warring States Period. Qu was known to be a patriot (爱国者) and admired by ordinary people. He is said to have jumped into Miluo River, because he had lost hope in his countrys future. When people heard about Qus death, they sailed up and down the river searching for his body. They also beat the drums to fright away fish and threw Zongzi into water. These were supposed to stop the fish from touching Qu. Dragon boat racing is said to have come from the search for the poets body.Over the years, the Dragon Boat Festival has spread throughout the world. In Japan and Vietnam, as well as South Korea, the festival has mixed together with, and become part of the local culture.With this in mind, some experts say that it is meaningless to argue (争论) about which country the festival belongs. “Everyone can say that it came from China,” said Long Haiqing, an expert from Hunan Province. “But if the whole nation can protect the culture heritage together, they will all benefit.”48. Which of the following country is NOT mentioned about the Dragon Boat Festival spreading?A. JapanB. VietnamC. South KoreaD. the United States49. From the passage, we can see Chinese peoples attitude (态度) toward the Dragon Boat Festival is that _.A. they do not like it B. they want to protect it because it is their cultural heritageC. it is a shame to protect it D. they wont agree South Korea takes it as its own festival50. Racing boats to celebrate the festival comes from the story that _.A. people searched for Qu Yuans body by boat B. people searched for Qu Yuans boatC. Qu Yuan enjoyed boating D. Qu Yuan liked building boats51. What can we infer (推断) from the last two paragraphs?A. The festival is celebrated in the same way all over the world.B. It matters a lot whose cultural heritage the festival is.C. It is good for the Chinese people to protect the cultural heritage.D. South Korea does not recognize that the festival is from China.(E) One evening after dinner, Mr. and Mrs. William called a family meeting. “Weve had to make a difficult decision.” Mr. William announced. “You see, your mother has been offered a post as co-director of a television in Chicago. Unluckily, the station is not here. After thinking long and hard about it, weve concluded (下结论) that the right decision is to move to Chicago.”Peter looked shocked, while his sister Amy breathlessly started asking when theyd be moving: “Its surprising, but exciting!” she said. Peter simply said, “We cant go I cant leave all my friends. Id rather stay here and live with Tommy!” Mr. and Mrs. William hoped that by the time they moved in August, Peter would grow more accustomed (习惯) to the idea of leaving. However, he showed no signs of accepting the news, refusing to pack his belongings (物品). When the morning of the move arrived, Peter was nowhere to be found. His parents called Tommys house, but Tommys mother said she hadnt seen Peter. Mrs. William became increasingly worried, while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so irresponsibly (不负责任). What they didnt know was that Peter had started walking over to Tommys house, with a faint idea of hiding in Tommys attic (阁楼) for a few days. But something happened on the way as Peter walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood: the fence that he and his mother painted, the tree that he and his sister used to climb, the park where he and his father often took evening walks together. How much would these mean without his family, who make them special in the first place? Peter didnt take the time to answer that question but instead hurried back to his house, wondering if there were any moving cartons (纸板箱) the right size to hold his record collection.52. The conflict (分歧) in this story was caused by _.A. Peter and Amys different tempers (脾气) B. a quarrel (争吵) between Tommy and PeterC. Peters disagreement with his parents about their move D. Mr. and Mrs. Williams words of Peters irresponsibility53. Peter and Amy were both _ after hearing the move. A. surprised B. angry and worried C. anxious for more details D. worried about packing54.
