【文章大意】本文为说明文。在唱歌中获取自信是要不断地练习，但最

重要的是练习唱歌过程中享受唱歌的乐趣。文章介绍了帮助你在唱歌

中获得信心，获得乐趣的3个正确的唱歌技巧。

1.【解析】选F。第一段是主旨段。由三个小标题可知，文章主要叙述

在唱歌中获取自信是要不断地练习，练习得越多，就越有信心。但最重

要的是在练习唱歌过程中享受唱歌的乐趣，要选你自己喜欢的歌，对

你有意义的歌。前两个小标题对应的是本段的第一句"Gaining

confidencewhilesingingisaprocessthatrequirespractice（在唱歌中获得

自信是一个需要练习的过程）〃。那么文章的第三个小标题对应的应该是

文章第二句，即空格处应是〃享受唱歌的乐趣〃。因此F项符合题意。

2.【解析】选C。本段的小标题是〃表演（唱歌）要自信〃。根据空格前句

可知是去一个新的她方表演。结合空格后的〃Tooverethis,gotothe

stagewhennooneelseisaround可知，在一个新地方表演（唱歌）有点害

怕，所以先要熟悉一下场所，为了克服恐惧心理，在没有人的时候走上

舞台。结合下文"Slowlybreatheinandbreatheout.“可知人在紧张害怕

时常会深呼吸来缓解。故本空格是指在新场地唱歌会有点害怕。分析

选项可知C项符合语境。

3.【解析】选B。根据空格后“Slowlybreatheinandbreatheout（慢慢地

吸气和呼气）〃可知，本空格与唱歌前深呼吸有关。分析选项可知B项

Breathedeeplybeforebeginningtosing（开始唱歌前深呼吸）符合题意。

4.【解析】选D。根据空格前“Warmupwithvocalexercisesbefore

singing（唱歌前用声乐练习热身）〃。可知本段主要在讲唱歌前要先进行声

乐热身。分析选项可知D项中的"Warmingupyourvoice〃对应本句。因

此D项符合题意。

5.【解析】选A。本段的小标题为"ChoosingtheRightSong”。结合本段

第一句"Pickasongthathaspersonalmeaningtoyou（选一首对你有个人

意义的歌）可知本段主要介绍选歌曲。分析七个选项可知，只有A项

Thesongcanbeachildhoodfavorite与选歌曲有关。〃选一首对你个人有

意义的歌。很有可能你能想到一些在你的生活中有意义的歌曲。这首

歌可能是儿时最喜欢的歌。〃A项与上下文语境相符。
