"Without music, life would be a mistake," famous German philosopher (哲学家) Friedrich Nietzsche said over a century ago. Music is a big part of our lives. But in recent years, some US schools have cut music classes to control budgets (预算).
For example, Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired (解雇) over 1,000 teachers. Among them,10 percent of the teachers taught art or music, according to The Washington Times. In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science, math and history. That's partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn't tested. Many students are busy with schoolwork, so parents and students choose to focus on subjects that are tested more often.
However, learning music is beneficial (有益的) in many ways.
When playing music, you need different abilities to work together. It is not as simple as it looks, according to Kenneth Guilmartin of Music Together, an early childhood music development program. For example, when playing the piano, people see music notes and decode (解码) them in their brains. They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to deal with all these things at the same time.
Music has a special connection with science as well. You can see that many scientists are good at playing music: Einstein played the violin, and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano.
31.Some schools in the US cut music classes, because ________.
A. students in the US weren't interested in music
B. they were too difficult to learn
C. there weren't enough music teachers in the US
D. the schools wanted to control budgets
32.In Paragraph 2, what does the underlined word "them" refer to (指代)?
A. Public schools. B. Fired teachers.
C. Parents in Chicago. D. Students in Chicago.
33.What's the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Different abilities are needed to work together while we are playing music.
B. Playing the piano needs people to use fingers to make sounds.
C. Decoding music notes is needed while we are playing music.
D. Playing the piano needs people to see music notes.
34.How many scientists who are good at playing music are mentioned in this passage?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
35.What's the writer's opinion according to this passage?
A. Music is as simple as it looks.
B. Music classes should be cut in some schools.
C. Music is a big part of our lives.
D. Music isn't a very important life skill for us.

Jia Ling is now well-known in China. She has won the love and respect of the audience for her movie YOLO in January, 2024.
However, Jia Ling's success was not all plain sailing, especially in her film career. In order to make movies, Jia Ling once gained weight and then lost weight to a completely different image (形象) from the past. This not only shows Jia Ling's professionalism, but also allows her to receive big praise. But her process of gaining and losing weight is undoubtedly a huge challenge.
For most people, keeping a healthy weight is already difficult enough, not to mention making complete weight changes in a short period of time. However, in order to play the role in the movie, Jia Ling resolutely accepted this challenge. Then she began the difficult process of losing weight. Losing weight is a test for many people, which needs a lot of effort and time. Jia Ling is no exception, but with firm will and scientific weight loss methods, she successfully became a slim girl.

Everyone's physical condition and lifestyle are different, and losing weight needs a scientific and reasonable plan. You should also have a strong will. Behind Jia Ling's success lies countless hard efforts and challenges.
Her story tells us that only by daring to challenge ourselves can we change our past image and achieve true transformation (蜕变). And also, we should have a right view of losing weight and avoid blind following and being too slim. Only in this way can we continue to grow and progress on the road of life.

The turning point of my lifetime was when I chose to give up my business job and study music. My parents didnˈt think it was a good choice that I took up music as a job. My grandfather had taught music for nearly forty years. Though he was much loved by his students, he didnˈt make enough money to support his large family. As a result of this example in the family, my parents asked me to go to the college instead of a conservatory(音乐学院)of music. And I gave in because of their great expectation.
Before my graduation, my family were depressed. We had some money problems. I felt it was my duty to leave college and find a job. I went into it for money, for being able to help my family with three children. Working without love was a little painful.
My wish was to study music. I continued to make money, and finally, I had enough money to make myself able to go abroad. My family finally got out of trouble. I felt like a free man and sailed for Europe. I stayed there for four years and worked hard. I walked on air. I could enjoy my own life.
When I broke away from the business world, it was against the advice of my friends. They thought that success was money, so they thought I was silly. But if I had stayed in business, I would have lost all those inner satisfactions, which money could never buy.

"Without music, life would be a mistake," famous German philosopher (哲学家) Friedrich Nietzsche said over a century ago. Music is a big part of our lives. But in recent years, some US schools have cut music classes to control budgets (预算).
For example, Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired (解雇) over 1,000 teachers. Among them,10 percent of the teachers taught art or music, according to The Washington Times. In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science, math and history. That's partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn't tested. Many students are busy with schoolwork, so parents and students choose to focus on subjects that are tested more often.
However, learning music is beneficial (有益的) in many ways.
When playing music, you need different abilities to work together. It is not as simple as it looks, according to Kenneth Guilmartin of Music Together, an early childhood music development program. For example, when playing the piano, people see music notes and decode (解码) them in their brains. They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to deal with all these things at the same time.
Music has a special connection with science as well. You can see that many scientists are good at playing music: Einstein played the violin, and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano.
31.Some schools in the US cut music classes, because ________.
A. students in the US weren't interested in music
B. they were too difficult to learn
C. there weren't enough music teachers in the US
D. the schools wanted to control budgets
32.In Paragraph 2, what does the underlined word "them" refer to (指代)?
A. Public schools. B. Fired teachers.
C. Parents in Chicago. D. Students in Chicago.
33.What's the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Different abilities are needed to work together while we are playing music.
B. Playing the piano needs people to use fingers to make sounds.
C. Decoding music notes is needed while we are playing music.
D. Playing the piano needs people to see music notes.
34.How many scientists who are good at playing music are mentioned in this passage?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
35.What's the writer's opinion according to this passage?
A. Music is as simple as it looks.
B. Music classes should be cut in some schools.
C. Music is a big part of our lives.
D. Music isn't a very important life skill for us.
【答案】D、B、A、B、C
【解析】【文章大意】文中提到的是有关于音乐的事情,作者认为音乐对于我们的生活来说是很重要的,在演奏音乐过程中,我们会协调各方面的能力,我们会去领悟人生的真实意义,并且作者还提到,有很多的伟大科学家都会弹奏音乐,比如爱因斯坦等。
31. 文中第一段提到"some US schools have cut music classes to control budgets"由于预算原因,美国的很多学校取消了音乐课程,及D项:学校想要控制预算。
32. 文中第一段提到"Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired(解雇) cover 1,000 teachers."芝加哥解雇了超过1000名老师,后文又说10 percent of the teachers taught art or music, 10%的人教授音乐和艺术,由此可以推测此处的them指的是前面那些辞退的老师。
33. 第四段第一句提出"When playing music, you need different abilities to work together."当演奏音乐时,一般都需要不同的能力一起协调作用,而后边主要是举例子说明这句话,比如音符解码、手指按键等。
34. 文中最后一段提到"Einstein played the violin, and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano."爱因斯坦会小提琴,Max Planck在弹钢琴上很有天赋,由此确定是两个。
35. 文中首句提到"Without music, life would be a mistake," 没有音乐,生命将是一个错误,下面通过美国削减音乐课程和介绍演奏音乐的好处来说明这一点,由此推测作者认为音乐很重要,是生活的一部分。

Jia Ling is now well-known in China. She has won the love and respect of the audience for her movie YOLO in January, 2024.
However, Jia Ling's success was not all plain sailing, especially in her film career. In order to make movies, Jia Ling once gained weight and then lost weight to a completely different image (形象) from the past. This not only shows Jia Ling's professionalism, but also allows her to receive big praise. But her process of gaining and losing weight is undoubtedly a huge challenge.

The turning point of my lifetime was when I chose to give up my business job and study music. My parents didnˈt think it was a good choice that I took up music as a job. My grandfather had taught music for nearly forty years. Though he was much loved by his students, he didnˈt make enough money to support his large family. As a result of this example in the family, my parents asked me to go to the college instead of a conservatory(音乐学院)of music. And I gave in because of their great expectation.
Before my graduation, my family were depressed. We had some money problems. I felt it was my duty to leave college and find a job. I went into it for money, for being able to help my family with three children. Working without love was a little painful.
My wish was to study music. I continued to make money, and finally, I had enough money to make myself able to go abroad. My family finally got out of trouble. I felt like a free man and sailed for Europe. I stayed there for four years and worked hard. I walked on air. I could enjoy my own life.
When I broke away from the business world, it was against the advice of my friends. They thought that success was money, so they thought I was silly. But if I had stayed in business, I would have lost all those inner satisfactions, which money could never buy.

46. 推理判断题。由第一段第三至五句可知,我祖父教音乐将近四十年了,但他挣的钱不够养活一个大家庭。由于这个例子,我的父母让我去上大学而不是音乐学院。由此可推知,作者在第一段举祖父的例子是为了解释他父母为什么不让他学音乐。
