课后提升练(三) Section Ⅲ　GRAMMAR Ⅰ.阅读理解 A John Otway John Otway has been playing music and making records in the UK for more than 40 years.Over the years he has released more than ten albums.He has played hundreds of concerts.He has written two autobiographies.He has worked with some of the country's best musicians and he has even made a film about his life.But despite all of this，most people have never heard of him. Otway released his first record in 1972，but it was the Punk Movement a few years later that really gave him his big chance.Otway wasn't the greatest musician but his songs were always fun，and his performances on stage were always entertaining—there was a good chance he would fall off the stage at least once in each show.The punks liked him，and in 1977 he had a small hit when his single Really Free made it to No.27 in the UK top 40 charts.Otway really enjoyed his success but unfortunately，no more came.Not one of his records over the next 30 years was a hit. Although he never had much commercial success，Otway had a lot of very loyal fans.When someone asked him what he would like for his 50th birthday，his reply was：“A second hit.” His fans went out and bought as many copies of the new single Bunsen Burner as they could.And in October 2002，Otway finally saw his wish come true.In a chart that featured international superstars like Pink，Will Young and Oasis，Bunsen Burner made it to No.9.Many high street shops refused to sell the record，saying that Otway was too old and unattractive for the teenage market.Otway didn't care.He celebrated his success with an appearance on TV's biggest music show Top of the Pops. These days John Otway continues to play his music around the country，and there are always plenty of people who are happy to go and watch him perform.He's a great example for anyone who loves making music.You don't have to be young，good­looking(or even very talented) to enjoy a long career in the music business. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了英国音乐家John Otway虽然在英国演奏音乐和制作唱片超过40年，但是毫无名气。同时讲述了John Otway从事音乐以来的事迹，虽然John Otway没有名气，但是他忠于自己喜爱的事业没有放弃。 1．From Paragraph 1，we know that ________.

Yet despite my enthusiasm，learning Chinese hadn't even entered my mind.This wasn't ignorance or laziness，but rather fright at the thought of attempting to learn what is regarded as the most difficult language in the world.In my mind，the Chinese language was the privilege of the highly intelligent. However，after a year in China I began to feel uncomfortable with how many Chinese people could speak English and yet I couldn't even speak the most basic Chinese.With these factors in mind and a thirst for a new challenge I determined to begin my language journey. In the two years since starting to learn I have made measurable progress.I found it less difficult than I had thought.When speaking to native Chinese speakers in Chinese they almost always understand me.I have also not found it too difficult to remember characters and I am now even able to write over 400 characters.I find studying the language relaxing and rewarding. In spite of my progress，it has still been the challenge that has taken a lot of hard work and commitment.The thing I find most discouraging is listening. Since native speakers talk at such a speed，I can't always understand what's been said，but my weekly online language exchanges help with this.Furthermore，there is a long way to go before I reach my goal of fluency.The key to progress is to be patient and persistent. My biggest harvest from learning Chinese is that it's not only reachable but can also be enjoyable.Learning Chinese not only helps me in day­to­day life，but deepenes my cultural understanding of such a diverse and interesting country.Now my only regret is that I didn't start earlier. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者学习汉语的经历。 1．Which can best describe the author's original impression about learning Chinese?
