考点规范练9(module 3).阅读理解music can make us feel happy or peaceful,energize us to dance,or move us to tears.as an orchestra conductor,amy andersson allows people to experience many feelings that music can inspire.andersson fell in love with music as a child.she sang in school choirs and musicals starting in first grade,began studying the piano at age seven,and started composing at age nine.although her school district had no orchestra,she says,“i bought many recordings of the worlds great orchestras and conductors and listened to them for hours.”during a concert,the audience sees the back of a conductor and the arm movements she or he uses to lead the orchestra.what audiences do not see is all the work the conductor has done beforehand to prepare for the performancefirst alone,and then in rehearsals(排练) with the orchestra.months before a concert,andersson studies a piece of music by playing it on the piano.she decides how she wants each section to sound.should it be fast or slow?loud or soft?she listens to recordings,reads about the composers life,and reviews historical events that would have influenced the composer.her goal is to recreate the music as the composer intended.each instrument contributes unique sounds to a musical performance.although it is not necessary for conductors to know how to play all of the instruments,they must be familiar with the range and sound of each instrument in the orchestra.to help young musicians understand how to play the music,andersson might tell them to imagine a ship being tossed(颠簸) by waves.andersson is happy knowing that she and the musicians have changed lives for the better,uplifted spirits,and brought joy into ordinary days.【语篇导读】本文是记叙文。文章讲述了乐队指挥andersson把音乐带入生活的故事。1.as a child,andersson learned about orchestras from

snap。这个声音整个礼堂都能听到。2.a.changeb.stopc.waitd.announce答案:b解析:该句主语they指前文的the audience,所有的观众都预料到音乐会要停一段时间,直到再找到一个乐器拿给那位音乐家。很容易误选c项,这是受汉语翻译的影响造成的,如果选择c项主语应该是人而不是音乐会。另外下文的第4空前面的stopped是依据。3.a.conductorb.musicianc.audienced.player答案:a解析:与人们预料的相反,这位小提琴家镇定下来开始向指挥示意继续开始演奏。下文提到管弦乐队继续开始,那么四个选项中能够让管弦乐队开始演奏的当然是乐队的指挥,b和d项不符合逻辑。4.a.heardb.arrangedc.performedd.produced答案:c解析:此空所填动词的宾语是the music,句子的主语是音乐家,据此可知只能选择c项,即那位音乐家用三根弦演奏音乐。5.a.handsb.mindc.viewd.eyes答案:b解析:刚才断了一根弦,这位小提琴家就在大脑中想出新的指法,能够想出(work out)指法当然应该是在心里,在思想中,所以只能选择b项。6.a.put up withb.lose sight ofc.break away fromd.make up for答案:d解析:想出新的指法的目的当然是为了弥补断掉的那根弦。所以选make up for“弥补”。put up with“忍受”;lose sight of“看不见”;break away from“挣脱”。7.a.straightb.livec.welld.alone答案:c解析:此处是在说明这种做法的难度。在四根弦上能够弹好这个曲子的人就几乎没有,而这位小提琴家竟然在三根弦上弹奏,这更是难上加难了。8.a.finishedb.turnedc.startedd.challenged答案:a解析:后面说向观众鞠躬,由此可知应该选a项,即演出结束演员向观众鞠躬退场,因为前文已经交代开始演出了,所以不能选择c项。假如选择b项,只是说转身并且向观众鞠躬,但是是否弹奏完毕是未知的。9.a.noisilyb.hopefullyc.loudlyd.proudly答案:c解析:观众席先是一片寂静,然后是雷鸣般的掌声。c项与前文的a silence形成鲜明对比。a项是贬义词,很显然与观众的那种对小提琴家的敬佩心理不符。10.a.silenceb.pleasurec.beliefd.confidence答案:a解析:该空后面的returned to表示主语在前文曾经提到过,所以应该选择a项,当礼堂再次安静下来的时候,这个小提琴家开始讲话。11.a.howb.whetherc.whatd.why答案:d解析:该空后面是那位小提琴家解释的内容,她是在解释继续演奏的原因,所以应该选择d项。12.a.weakb.brokenc.badd.tight答案:b解析:结合文章前面的内容可知应该选择b项,演奏过程中一根琴弦断了。13.a.processb.taskc.pland.dream答案:b解析:虽然琴弦断了一根,但是艺术家的任务是用剩下的东西(这里指琴弦)还能弹奏出多少音乐来。此题因为主观臆断而选择c或d项,因为这位艺术家已经像她说的那样做过了,所以不是计划或梦想。14.a.missedb.givenc.washedd.lived答案:d解析:从本段开始作者开始发表议论。与该空后面的宾语一起构成同源宾语live a.life。15.a.poorb.helplessc.painfuld.crazy答案:a解析:前面的a financial loss是依据。因为经济方面的损失使得我们很贫穷。16.a.reduceb.recoverc.experienced.avoid答案:c解析:根据句意,此处应该说“遭受、蒙受损失”,能够表达此意的只有c项。experience“经历,经受”。17.a.evenb.hardlyc.stilld.ever答案:c解析:句意:用所剩下的东西我们仍然能有勇气像那位小提琴家一样弹奏出那种音乐吗?根据句意选择c项。18.a.supportb.effortc.progressd.attitude答案:b解析:联想到前文那位小提琴家的情况可知答案。琴弦断了一根仍然继续演奏,这是需要付出努力的。19.a.braveb.wisec.anxiousd.happy答案:a解析:损失的比别人多,如果能够继续面对,这当然需要一种勇气,因此应该是说足够(brave)“勇敢”。20.a.measureb.considerc.expectd.reach答案:d解析:根据该空后面的宾语不难得出正确答案。此处意思是说那些勇敢面对困难的人们激发我们其余的人去达到更高的高度。.语篇填空last

actress“一名女演员”,是指人,所以关系代词要填who或者that。2.for解析:考查介词。for the first time固定搭配,意思是“第一次”,这句话意思是“如果你第一次见到她”。故填for。3.would think4.had spent解析:考查过去完成时。根据it seemed that可知文章用的是过去时态,而她花时间努力投入到她的职业中是发生在过去的过去,所以要用过去完成时。故填had spent。5.when解析:考查连词。根据后一句“they put in a little more effort to ensure that they get plenty of water.”可知他们会更加努力确保能得到大量的水,所以当他们看到一点水的时候是不会停下来的。when“当的时候”。故填连词when。6.another解析:考查代词。俗话说:齐心协力,众志成城,但是会期待另一个结果是怎样。故填another。7.wholly解析:考查副词。副词修饰形容词,位于形容词之前,表示程度,a wholly different result表示“完全不同的结果”,强调不同的程度之深。故填wholly。8.or解析:考查连词。either.or.固定搭配,表示“要么要么”,意思是生活中你有两种选择,要么专注于你丢失的东西,要么为依然存在的东西努力。故填or。9.forgetting解析:考查动词-ing形式。about是介词,接动词要用动词的-ing形式。故填forgetting。10.bravery解析:考查名词。and连接两个并列的成分,and前是名词courage,后要接brave的名词形式bravery。故填bravery。.短文改错what
