模块质量测评(三)Module 3Music(时间：90分钟满分：110分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共10小题，每小题2分，满分20分)阅读下列短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。AAbout twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a filmstudio (影棚) to take part in a crowdscene. Although our “act” would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things.We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at the edge of a winding path. Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big moviecamera was wheeled into position. The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby. Since it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path. A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in “snow”. Two more fans were turned on, and a “strong wind” blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.The next scene was a complete contrast (对比). The way it was filmed was quite unusual. Pictures taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen. An actor and actress stood in front of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the waters edge on an island. By a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film “stars”！语篇解读能够被选为群众演员进入影棚亲身体验当电影“明星”是件无比幸运的事情。以假乱真的人工场景让你仿佛身临其境，为你拍摄的短暂画面又是什么呢？1Who is the author?A. A camera man.B. A film director.C. A crowdscene actor.D. A workman for scene setting.答案与解析C推理判断题。根据第一段第一句以及最后一段开头部分的内容可推测作者是“群众演员”。2What made the author feel cold?A. The heavy snowfall.B. The manmade scene.C. The low temperature.D. The film being shown.答案与解析B细节理解题。根据第二段后半部分的内容可知，人造场景让作者感到冷。3What would happen in the “three minutes” mentioned in the last paragraph?A. A new scene would be filmed.B. More stars would act in the film.C. The author would leave the studio.D. The next scene would be prepared.答案与解析A推理判断题。作者在第二段中提到拍摄的是寒冬的场面，第三段中拍摄的是沙滩的场面，最后一段提到作者等人不知道在一生的三分钟内将有什么样的成为电影“明星”的兴奋经历，由此可推断将要拍摄新的场面。BPopular 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.4This passage mainly talks about _.A. American musicB. American popular musicC. three sorts of musicD. popular music singers答案与解析A主旨大意题。纵观全文可以看出，作者讲述了美国最重要的三种音乐形式：流行音乐、民乐以及乡村音乐，其中对流行音乐作了重点的介绍。5The first three paragraphs mainly tell us _.A. that Americans like popular musicB. that popular music is an important kind of music in AmericaC. how to become a national star as a pop singer in AmericaD. popular music in America is what every student likes答案与解析B主旨大意题。根据文章的主旨可以断定，作者在前三段里主要告诉我们有关美国人最喜欢的一种音乐形式流行音乐的一些情况。6In America, as a pop singer, if you want to become a national star, youll have to _.A. earn a lot of moneyB. make radio stations use your CDs or tapesC. make many CDs or tapesD. make all the young people love you and what you sing答案与解析D细节理解题。综合文章第三段的描述可知，A、B和C项都是变成全国明星之前的事，只有受到所有年轻人的爱戴和喜欢之后，才能真正称之为全国明星。7According to the passage, the song Country Road probably belongs to _.A. pop music B. folk musicC. western music D. jazz答案与解析C推理判断题。根据文章最后一句话“any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music”可知乡村音乐是写乡村生活和爱情的，而Country Road 乡村之路是有关乡村的，据此推断C项正确。CRock and roll music first became popular in the 1950s. There were many popular rock and roll singers during that time, but only a few of those singers are still popular. Most people today are familiar to the singer named Elvis Presley.Elvis Presley sang different types of music. He sang country music and blues music. He also sang music that you might hear in church, but it was rock and roll music that made Elvis very popular. In fact, the songs of Elvis became so famous that people gave the singer a special name. Everyone started to call him “the King of Rock and Roll”. Today many people still call him “the King” for short.Other famous singers have also been given special names. Not everyone always agrees with their names, but many newspapers and magazines use the names. For example, in the 1980s pop music became famous, and Michael Jackson was the most popular singer. People thought that the pop music was really just one kind of rock and roll music, so they did not want to call Michael Jackson “King”. Elvis was still the King. As a result, Michael Jackson was given the name “the Prince of Pop”. However, Michael Jackson was not the only famous pop singer in the 1980s. Madonna was also very popular. She was given the name “the Queen of Pop”. More than one woman has been called “the Princess of Pop”. Two of the most famous “Pop Princesses” are Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.It is interesting that no woman was ever named “the Queen of Rock and Roll”. There was a Queen of Disco and a Queen of Country Music, but never a Queen of Rock. Maybe in the years to come, a woman who is singing now will get that special name.8This passage is mainly about _.A. how to make country music B. special names for famous singersC. a King who enjoyed playing music D. a Queen who was fond of singing songs答案与解析B主旨大意题。文章讨论了好几位著名歌星以及他们的特殊称号，故选B项。9How many famous singers are mentioned in this passage?A. Three. B. Four.C. Five. D. Six.答案与解析C细节理解题。文章提及了Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera 5位歌星。10Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Rock and roll music was popular in the 1940s.B. There have been two Queens of Rock and Roll.C. It is certain that a woman singing now will be named “the Queen of Rock and Roll”D. Many people once thought pop music was one type of rock and roll music.答案与解析D细节理解题。根据第三段的第四句可知选D项。第二节(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。Five steps to better handwritingSome kids love handwriting, but others hate when its time to put their pen to paper.

When I won, they called me names. I did not know _30_ they were doing this. I think that it was unfair, and it hurt me.Between seventh and eighth grade, I started to grow.
