Learning music is important for the educational and personal development of young people!
Learning an instrument: how do pupils choose?
All our teachers are highly qualified and experienced musicians, and pupils can learn to play a wide range of
instruments, from the keyboard to the drums. We have open days when new pupils who are unsure which instrument
to choose can come to the centre. They are able to speak to teachers about which instrument might be best for them,
and they can also see and hear classes in action.
Who is responsible for buying the instruments?
Parents usually have to provide instruments. But parents of beginners are advised not to buy an instrument until
they are told that a place is available. They should also find out from the teacher the most suitable type of instrument
to get.
When and where do lessons take place?
Lessons are available in many schools, usually during the day. If there is no lesson available for a particular
instrument in a particular school, other arrangements can be made at one of our music centres for lessons on Saturday
afternoons or weekday evenings.
How are pupils taught?
Pupils can learn in small groups, in classes or individually, depending on their needs. Small groups of three
pupils have lessons that last thirty minutes. Class lessons last forty-five minutes and have at least ten pupils. Individual
lessons are offered only to pupils who have some experience.

Starting young: when can pupils begin?
Children are never too young to become interested in music. We have special “Musical Youth” classes for
children from the age of 3 to 8. These are designed to encourage young children to enjoy music through a variety of
activities including singing, musical games, listening and movement. “Musical Youth” classes take place on Saturday
mornings with groups of about 18 children. A parent or other adult must attend each session, and they are encouraged
to sit with their children and help them with the activities.

Since the age of three, Chelsie Hill had dreamed of becoming a dancer. That ambition nearly ended in 2010
when Hill was in a car accident, which put the 17-year-old high school senior in hospital for 51 days and left her
paralyzed from the waist down. For most people, that would have destroyed any hope of a dancing career. But for
Hill, it was the beginning. Far from being a barrier, her wheelchair encouraged her to fight. “I want to prove to
everyone including myself that I’m still normal,” she said, “whatever normal means.”
Dancing was normal for her, so Hill did it in her wheelchair alongside her non-disabled high school dance team.
Half of her body was taken away from her, so she had to move it with her hands. It took much learning and patience.
After graduation from high school, Hill wanted to expand her dance network to include women like her. She
met people online who were fighting for the dream of dancing against various spinal (脊椎的) injuries, and invited
them to dance with her. To reach more people in a larger city, Hill moved to Los Angeles in 2014 and formed a team
of dancers with disabilities she called the Rollettes.
Every year Hill holds a dance camp called the Rollettes Experience for wheelchair users to help them bring out
their acting talent. In 2019, 173 participants from ten countries attended. For many, it was the first time they’d felt
they belonged. Edna Serrano said that being part of the Rollettes team gave her the courage to get behind the wheel
of a car. “I didn’t know I could do so many things that my fellow teammates had taught me,” she said. “I didn’t know
I could be sexy. It’s so powerful to have my teammates in my life, because they’re my teachers. I have more
confidence.”
Chelsie Hill attained what many of us never will: her childhood dream. She has been chasing her dream in the
wheelchair. She’s a dancer. The Rollettes have helped her find something else just as fulfilling.
24. What happened to Chelsie Hill in 2010?

Corals are comeback creatures. As the world froze and melted and sea levels rose and fell over 30,000 years,
Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, which is roughly the size of Italy, died and revived five times. But now, thanks to
human activity, corals face the most complex condition they have yet had to deal with.
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change, a rise in global temperatures of 1.5oC could cause
coral reefs to decline 70-90%. The planet is about 1oC hotter than in the 19th century and its seas are becoming
warmer, stormier and more acidic. This is already affecting relations between corals and the single-celled algae (海
藻), which give them their color. When waters become unusually warm, algae float away, leaving reefs a ghostly
white. This “bleaching” is happening five times as often as it did in the 1970s. Meanwhile the changing chemistry of
the oceans makes it harder for corals to form their structures.
If corals go, divers and marine biologists are not the only people who will miss them. Reefs take up only a
percent of the sea floor, but support a quarter of the planet’s fish diversity. The fish that reefs shelter are especially
valuable to their poorest human neighbors, many of whom depend on them as a source of protein. Roughly an eighth
of the world’s population lives within 100km of a reef. Corals also protect 150,000km of shoreline in more than 100
countries and territories from the oceans buffeting, as well as generating billions of dollars in tourism revenue.
Coral systems must adapt if they are to survive. They need protection from local sources of harm. Their eco-
systems suffer from waste from farms, building sites and blast fishing. Governments need to impose tighter rules on
these industrials, such as tougher local building codes, and to put more effort into enforcing rules against overfishing.
Setting up marine protected areas could also help reefs. Locals who fear for their livelihoods could be given
work as rangers with the job of looking after the reserves. Visitors to marine parks can be required to pay a special
tax, like what has been done in the Caribbean.
Many reefs that have been damaged could benefit from restoration. Coral’s biodiversity offers hope, because the
same coral will grow differently under different conditions. Corals of the western Pacific, for example, can withstand
higher temperatures than the same species in the eastern Pacific, which proves a way forward to encourage corals to
grow in new spots.
28. According to the passage, what may happen to corals when waters become warm?
A. Turning white B. Getting pink C. Being active D. Becoming colorful
29. According to the passage, corals can _______ the changing in nature.
A. live with B. escape from C. die in D. recover from
30. According to passage, the governments should__________.
第5页/共9页
A. ban people from fishing in the coral reef areas
B. reduce the number of visitors to the marine parks
C. call on volunteers to look after the marine reserves
D. carry out stricter rules on industries around the coast
31. What’s the main purpose of the passage?
A. To attract more attention to coral reef protection.
B. To present the importance of coral reef to the world.
C. To propose governments to take action immediately to save coral reef.
D. To introduce the severe effect on coral reef brought by climate change.

Non-fiction can be broken down into many categories. One category is literary non-fiction, which is still based
in fact but employs some of the storytelling elements that fiction uses. Literary non-fiction includes a type of
autobiography(自传) called memoir. Memoir most often focuses on a certain period of the author’s life. It is, by
definition, rooted in truth. Still, people sometimes question whether memoir should be categorized as non-fiction at
all.
As non-fiction, memoir is intended to be factual. Is this really the case, though, considering memoir relies on
human memory? One classic study, led by psychologist Elizabeth Loftus, showed how easily an interviewer’s choice
of wording can influence an eyewitness’s account of a traffic accident. It is therefore reasonable to wonder whether
memoir should continue to be branded as non-fiction.
Certainly, human memory can be unreliable. However, a memoir author is undoubtedly writing about significant
and impactful life events. Memories of such events are actually more reliable than others. Studies show that the more
influential an event is, the more accurately people recall the details. As an emotionally charged event unfolds, the
brain activity changes in a way that amplifies small details. This activity helps build a more precise and accurate
memory.
Of course the brain is not a camera that can “save” any memory with perfect accuracy. But if memoir is
questionable due to the imperfections of the human mind, then critics will have to tackle non-fiction more broadly.
All writers are using their memories when they create, and moreover, they are relying on the memories of others.
Journalists conduct interviews to tell a news story and history writers depend on the accuracy of accounts from long
ago. Yet they all rightfully fall under the umbrella of non-fiction.
Some people may doubt memoir not because they mistrust human memory, but because they mistrust the
author’s morality. Critics may suspect an author of making up events. However, there is no reason to be suspicious
of memoir author’s intentions. Writing a factual memoir that appeals to readers has the potential to be profitable for
the author, and there is no motivation for a memoir writer to knowingly change or beautify the truth.
Looking beyond the author’s own life events, memoir can inform readers about the world in the same way that
other non-fiction can. Memoir has a way of relaying facts about anything from an occupation to brief fashion trends,
all of it meaningful to the author.
32. The author introduces the topic in Paragraph 1 by_______________
A. illustrating why it is important to talk about memoir
B. listing some interesting facts and features of memoir
C. defining key terms that are discussed later in the passage
第6页/共9页
D. making a comparison between autobiography and memoir
33. What does the underlined word “amplifies” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Collects. B. Ignores. C. Enlarges. D. Absorbs.
34. We can learn from the passage that________________
A. critics argue that a news story by a journalist is fiction
B. a memoir author’s memory can be influenced by the interviewees
C. memoir can’t show readers facts about what an author experienced
D. emotional moments can cause the creation of more detailed memories

Pets are like our family members and their good health is something that is very important to all pet owners.
Just as the pollutants, such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in the air, affect our health, these same
environmental nasties can affect our pets too.
35 57% of dogs exposed to higher pollution levels developed brain diseases and showed signs of neuro
problems. In a more recent study from the journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, researchers found that cats with
breathing problems were more likely to live in households with higher indoor air pollution.
Air purifiers have been brought into use in recent years. They work to remove harmful chemicals known as
volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other environmental pollutants from the air. 36 But are they safe for pets?
How can we ensure that they aren’t harming our furry friends?
37 The physical safety of using a mechanical device around pets is what we have to pay attention to. Air
purifiers come in various shapes and sizes, from small desk-top units to large, free-standing models. In terms of
physical harm, there is an existing risk of our pet becoming trapped in the electrical wire of our air purifier. Air
purifiers are designed to be used in the home around children and their internal mechanisms should also be safe from
small tails of our pets and other parts of their bodies. 38
Whether the air purifier improves or damages the health of our animals is also something we have to consider.
The air purifiers are safe for pets, but only if they do not produce any ozone (臭氧) byproduct. 39 We should
always stay away from the ones that produce even minimal quantities. We are always on the safe side by picking a
standard air purifier with the classic 3-stage filtration (过滤) system of a pre-filter, HEPA filter and carbon activated
filter.
Picking the wrong air purifier type can quickly make things worse for our pets. On the other hand, picking the
correct air purifier can lead to a big increase in the quality of life for them.
A. At present many homes are equipped with these useful devices.
B. Before buying an air purifier, we should keep two aspects in mind.
C. Pet owners always pay close attention to the physical health of their pets.
D. Even the smallest pets shouldn't be able to access the insides of air purifiers.
E. This greatly depends on the type of air purifier and air cleaning technology used.
F. So always check the product specifications and try to find a model that does not produce any carbon monoxide.
G. A 2008 study published in Brain and Cognition showed that dogs' brains were negatively affected by the

第一节 (共 4 小题;第 40、41 题各 2 分,第 42 题 3 分,第 43 题 5 分,共 12 分)
阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
Tree planting used to be regarded as an effective means of reducing climate change. Perhaps it’s time for us to
rethink this practice. Trees pull CO2 from the air. This effectively removes CO2 from the atmosphere. But trees only
hold onto CO2 as long as they’re alive. Once they die, trees decay(腐烂) and release that CO2 back into the
atmosphere.
Recent studies have found that trees around the world are growing faster than ever. The rise of CO2 , mainly due
to burning fossil fuels, is probably driving that rapid growth, said Roel Brienen, a forest ecologist at the University
of Leeds, UK. High levels of CO2 are increasing temperatures, which in turn speeds tree growth in those areas, he
added.
The faster trees grow, the faster they store carbon. It seems like good news. However, it is known that fast-
growing tree species, in general, live shorter lives than their slow-growing relatives.
In order to see whether the growth-lifespan trade-off(生长与寿命之间的权衡) is a universal phenomenon,
Brienen and his colleagues analyzed over 210,000 individual tree ring records of 110 tree species from more than
79,000 sites worldwide. They found that, in almost all habitats and all sites, faster-growing tree species died younger
than slow-growing species, and even within a species, the trade-off between growth and lifespan held strong.
The team also created a computer program that modeled a forest and tweaked(微量调整) the growth of the trees
in this model. Early on, it showed that “the forest could hold more carbon as the trees grew faster”, Brienen reported.
But after 20 years, these trees started dying and losing this extra carbon again. “We must understand that the only
solution to bringing down CO2 levels is to stop emitting it into the atmosphere,” said Brienen.
40. What does “this practice” in Para.1 refer to?
41. Why are trees around the world growing faster than ever?
42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
The team has found that the faster trees grow, the faster they store CO2, and the longer lives they live.
43. Please briefly present what you can do in daily life to reduce the emission of CO2. (In about 40 words)
