【題目】Music is magic! Music speaks louder than words and it is a “l(fā)anguage” that the whole world can understand. A piece of music can produce a response in the heart and mind. Like feeling an electrical current or receiving a personal radio signal, music has a spiritual effect on a person. Different kinds of music influence people in different ways.

I have listened to music all my life. When I was twelve years old, the Beatles came to America and my whole world opened up. Maybe young people today cannot understand the influence of the Beatles when they exploded across America. Their influence changed the way we dressed, looked, acted and spoke... even our culture. The Beatles arrived in America from the UK just three months after the assassination(暗殺) of President John Kennedy, which had put America into a great depression. And the freshness and lively spirit of the Beatles was exactly what the country needed to refresh itself.

Music links the heart of the hearer with that of the composer. This means that it mixes the spirit of the composer with your spirit when you listen to it. And the music can take your spirit out of your body and transport you into another world. Music has a great way of touching people. Music can make you laugh, cry or shout. It's also a great source of inspiration.

Try this one day and notice what happens: make yourself a cup of tea, sit on your sofa and play one of your favorite songs. Close your eyes, and soon you'll find yourself creating vivid mental images—matching the music that you are listening to.

【1】Music has magical power because it ________.

A. is a kind of language

B. can be played much louder than words

C. receives a personal radio signal

D. can influence a person's spirit

【2】What can we learn about the Beatles from the passage?

A. They were the biggest band in American history.

B. They are not accepted by modern American people.

C. They appeared at a special time in American politics.

D. They represented the roots of American culture.

【3】Music influences people in the following ways except ________.

A. connecting the listener and the composer mentally

B. transporting people from one place to another

C. allowing people to express their emotions

D. touching and inspiring people

【4】What does the writer suggest people do in the last paragraph?

【答案】

【1】D

【2】C

【3】B

【4】A

【解析】

試題分析：本文講述的是音樂很有魔力，它比語言更有力，以不同的方式影響著人們。

【1】D 細節(jié)理解題。根據第一段提到A piece of music can produce a response in the heart and mind. Like feeling an electrical current or receiving a personal radio signal, music has a spiritual effect on a person. Different kinds of music influence people in different ways.可知，音樂會對人的身心產生影響，不同的音樂用不同的方式來影響人們，所以說音樂是有魔力的，故選D項。

【2】C 細節(jié)理解題。根據第二段提到The Beatles arrived in America from the UK just three months after the assassination(暗殺) of President John Kennedy, which had put America into a great depression.可知，披頭士是在肯尼迪被暗殺3個月之后，是美國政治的特殊時期，故選C項。

【3】B 推理判斷題。根據第三段第一句Music links the heart of the hearer with that of the composer.音樂把聽眾和作曲家連在一起，A項是方式之一，故排除；根據最后一句Music can make you laugh, cry or shout.音樂能讓你笑、哭或大喊，所以C項是方式之一，故排除C項；第四句Music has a great way of touching people. 音樂有一種偉大的感人方式，排除D項；根據第三句the music can take your spirit out of your body and transport you into another world.可知，音樂可以把你帶入另外一個世界，而不是把人從一個地方帶到另外一個地方，B項表述錯誤；故選B。

【4】A 推理判斷題。根據最后一段Try this one day and notice what happens: make yourself a cup of tea, sit on your sofa and play one of your favorite songs.（喝茶，坐在沙發(fā)上，聽自己喜歡的歌曲）；Close your eyes, and soon you'll find yourself creating vivid mental images-matching the music that you are listening to. （你會發(fā)現自己創(chuàng)造一個生動的心理圖像與所聽到的音樂匹配。）可知，作者建議人們放松、聽自己喜歡的音樂。故選A。

【題目】根據短文內容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

The guy who tried to edit English

The English vocabulary is not only huge, it is also full of words that mean practically the same thing. Get, obtain, acquire. Shine, gleam, glow, sparkle. 【1】

That was the thinking of a British writer named C.K. Ogden, who in the 1930s promoted a new form of English with a vocabulary of just 850 words. He called the project Basic English. 【2】

Ogden arrived at his 850-word list through experimentation. The words he finally included were not necessarily the shortest or most concrete. 【3】 Because any verbal (動詞的) idea could be expressed with a small number of “operators”— words like come, go, take, have, make, be and do — Ogden argued that most verbs were unnecessary. In Basic English, eat is “have a meal” and forget is “go from memory.”

Winston Churchill was a fan of the concept as a way to get foreigners to speak English, and he encouraged the BBC to use it. 【4】 Roosevelt, who expressed mild interest, joked that Churchill’s famous speech about offering his “blood, toil, tears and sweat” to his country wouldn’t have been so exciting if he “had been able to offer the British people only blood, work, eye water and face water, which I understand is the best that Basic English can do with five famous words.”

【5】 Churchill didn’t use it either. When seeking to express ourselves, we don’t necessarily need fewer words; we need the right words. So it’s our benefit to have a large supply of words on hand.

A. Do we really need them all?

B. How many words are there in English?

C. Ogden himself didn’t actually use Basic English.

D. Plenty of seeming basic words did not make the list at all.

E. He also tried to persuade President Franklin Roosevelt to promote it.

F. He believed it would make the language more efficient and easier to learn.

G. Despite attention from world leaders, Basic English never got as far as expected.

【題目】Finding a good friend can be quite difficult in the contemporary lives of teenagers. I was oncebaffledby what the definition of a good friend was, until I discovered a single step that, if taken, would make you the greatest friend.

It is willingness. That is all it takes in order to be considered a good friends. Willingness must come from within your heart. Listening to your friends makes them feel important, special and wanted. The will to sacrifice for your friends will also take you a step closer to being a good friend. For instance, as you are about to leave to enjoy your Saturday night, your best friend calls you right when you are stepping out and tells you how terrible he feels, you must be willing to give up your Saturday night and go to your friends house and try to comfort him in anyway that you can.

You must always be willing to give advice to your friends. For example, if your friends are in a situation where they do not know what to do, you must be willing to think things through and try to give them the best advice. The willingness to care is also a big must in being a good friend. You must care about how your friends feel and what they’re experiencing. Caring about your friends is one of the best things you can do, because when your friends are in their time of need and the whole world seems to turn against them, you must be the one to care about them.

Nobody ever said being a good friend was easy. If you want to be a good friend, you have to be willing to listen, sacrifice, give advice and care about your friends.

【題目】NASA has opened the door to the next generation of space discovery by announcing great plans for a base for humans to live on the surface of the moon forever.

The project to build a base on the moon will begin soon after 2020, with astronauts living there within four years.

The project comes after several excellent scientists and environmentalists asked humans to look beyond Earth to ensure the survival of the species (物種).

Eventually, the moon will be a base for humans to explore the solar system and one day land on Mars.

NASA began planning for the first moon landing since 1972 when George Bush, the US president, announced his new plan for space exploration four years ago.

NASA has already talked about the design of the Orion spacecraft that will replace the old space shuttle fleet in 2010.

The plan for the moon base, however, is the first detailed explanation of how NASA intends to prepare for the first manned exploration of deep space and a possible Mars mission within 30 years.

Scientists also believe that the south pole on the moon contain rich natural gases such as the rare helium-3 that could be used as fuel for the generation of nuclear power. Besides, teams of astronauts living there for six months at a time would mine for hydrogen and oxygen to make water and possibly rocket fuel.

【1】The reasons why NASA has begun the plan to explore space include the followings except ________.

A. to protect Earth

B. to explore deep space

C. to finish Mars mission

D. to show how powerful the USA is

【2】In the future, when people fly to the moon, they will probably not bring with them too much ________

A. hydrogen B. food C. oxygen D. water

【3】The passage mainly talks about ________.

A. the USA’s new plan for space exploration

B. how to build a base on the moon

C. why to ensure the survival of the species

D. where to get new natural resources
