He was born in Salzburg, Austria, in 1756. Even when he was very young, Mozart loved music. His father, who was the leader of an orchestra, was very happy that his son was so interested in music. When Mozart was three years old, he learned to play the harpsichord, which is a kind of piano. Mozart began to compose music at the age of five, and his father took him to play in front of the kings and queens of Europe.At one concert, one of the violinists was missing from the orchestra. Mozart picked up a violin and played the music without a mistake. Mozarts father and the other players in the orchestra were surprised. Mozart had never been taught to play the violin! Mozart continued traveling around Europe with his father, who was his teacher in everything. He composed many pieces for the piano, the violin, and later for full orchestra.Mozart could write down a piece of music even if he had heard it only once. One day, he went to hear a group of people singing in a big church in Rome. The song was very special. The church leader said that people could sing the song only once a year, and only in his church. No one else was allowed to have the music. Mozart listened to the song. Although it was very difficult and long, Mozart went back home and wrote down the whole piece from memory. The head of the church heard about this, and instead of being angry with Mozart, he gave him a prize.When Mozart grew up, people were not so interested in him. He worked as a teacher and pianist, but he did not make much money. In 1791, at the age of 35, he died. He was so poor that there was not enough money for him to have a proper grave. No one knows where he is buried.5. The story is mainly about AMozart and his musicBa leader of an orchestraCthe life of a great composerDthe head of a church in Rome【解析】从全文可知本文主要讲述了一位伟大音乐家的一生。【答案】C6.

Then the telephone rings, you say hello, and the drama starts. The person on the other end has a depressing(令人沮丧的) tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to. You are still in a wonderful mood? Impossible!Communicating with negative(消极的) people can wash out your happiness. It may not change what you think, but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time.Life brings ups and downs, but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer. They only feel glad when they make others feel bad. No wonder they can hardly win others pity or respect.When you communicate with positive(积极的) people, your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted. When the dagger(匕首) of a negative person is put in you, you feel the heavy feeling that, all in all, brings you down.Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. This could be a coworker, or relative. In this case, say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to a negative person, but all this is to lower you to that same negative level and they wont feel ashamed of themselves about that.Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized. The negative words of another at the start of the day can cling to(附着) you throughout the rest of your day, which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness. Life is too short to feel negative. Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible.【语篇解读】本文介绍了同消极的人和积极的人交往的不同之处。9How can negative people have effect on us?ABy telling us the nature of life.BBy influencing our emotion.CBy comparing their attitude to life with ours.DBy changing our way of thinking.【解析】细节理解题。根据文中第一、二段可得知，与消极的人交谈会使自己感到郁闷，所以消极的人是会影响到我们的情绪和情感的。【答案】B10Some negative people base their happiness on Aother peoples pity for themBbuilding up a positive attitudeCmaking other people unhappyDother peoples respect for them【解析】细节理解题。从第三段“They only feel glad when they make others feel bad.”可推断出消极的人是把自己的快乐建立在别人的痛苦之上。【答案】C11According to the passage, to reduce negative peoples influence on us, we are advised Ato change negative peoples attitude to lifeBto show our dissatisfaction to negative peopleCto communicate with negative people as little as possibleDto make negative people feel ashamed of themselves【解析】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“In this case，say what needs to be said as little as possible.”得出答案选C。【答案】CDThe arts，especially music，should be part of every schools lessons at every grade level.Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience.They could improve their classroom skills，like paying attention and following directions.People develop all these skills when they learn music.Making music also lets children use their imagination.It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas.Music not only makes children better students，but also gives them something positive to do.In a music program，children can be part of a band instead of joining a gang (团伙)Parents can enjoy listening to their childrens music instead of seeing them glued to a computer or TV screen.In a school band，students get to be part of a team.They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music.Music builds selfconfidence，too.It gives children a sense of achievement and success.Making music is something for them to be proud of，and it lets kids practice performing in front of an audience.Music gives children an opportunity for selfexpression，and that helps develop their selfconfidence.Once again，music is important because it can make children better students，give them something positive to do，and build their character.That is why music should be offered in every single grade in every school.12According to the passage，music could make students smarter by Aimproving their classroom skills and paying attentionBimproving their classroom skills and imaginationCimproving their attention，direction and imaginationDlearning music，making music and trying out their own ideas【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段“Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience.”和“They could improve their classroom skills，.”以及“Making music also lets children use their imagination”可知音乐可以培养孩子们的课堂技能，使他们发挥想象力，从而变的更为聪明，选B。【答案】B13What does the underlined phrase “glued to”in the second paragraph mean?AUnwilling to turn on.BAlways looking.CUnwilling to leave.DAlways playing.【解析】猜测词义题。从情理可知孩子们喜欢看电视，玩电脑，而且不愿意离开，由下而上此判断该词义为“unwilling to leave”，选C。【答案】C14The third paragraph mainly tells us that music could .Agive children selfexpression and selfconfidenceBbring to children achievement and successCgive children something to be proud ofDdevelop childrens selfconfidence【解析】主旨大意题。第三段首句提出Music builds selfconfidence，too.“音乐也构建自信”，然后对此进行解释分析，由此判断此句为主题句，故答案选D。【答案】D15Whats the best title of this passage?AMusic is a must as a course at schoolBMusic builds childrens selfconfidenceCMusic makes students much smarterDLearning music and making music【解析】主旨大意题。文章开门见山提出“The arts，especially music，should be part of every schools lessons at every grade level.”这一文章的主题。然后在下文进行分析论证，由此判断A选项内容具有较高的概括性，而且针对性强，选A。【答案】A.阅读填句(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。ForgivenessTo forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research. 16 Try the following steps：Calm yourself. 17 You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.Dont wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just dont see things the same way. 18 Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.Take the control away from your offender (冒犯者). Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who caused you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. 19 If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offenders point of view.Dont forget to forgive yourself. 20 But it can rob you of your selfconfidence if you dont do it.AWhy should you forgive?BHow should you start to forgive?CRecognize the benefits of forgiveness.DTry to see things from your offenders angle.EFor some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.FTo make your anger die away, try a simple stressmanagement technique.GIf you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.【答案】1620BFGDE.完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Marianne, a schoolgirl, was learning to play the piano, and day after day her father stood behind her as she practised.
