During the break, I realized that musical theatre was what I truly needed. I loved to sing and had been taking piano lessons for a few years, but nothing felt as perfect as musical theatre. Two years later, I was in my first musical, Anne of Green Gables, at a community arts studio. It was the start of something incredible that would shape my life. I went on to perform in shows such as Cinderella and Mary Poppins, and I also took part in my elementary school's production of Into The Woods, featuring music by one of my favourite composers, Stephen Sondheim. Although my high school did not produce musicals, I still participated in several plays at the National Theatre School Drama Festival. There was a period when I questioned whether musical theatre was as magical as I remembered. I felt disconnected from that original passion. That all changed during a grade 11 drama class trip to Niagara on the Lake to see Holiday Inn at the Shaw Festival. I knew little about it besides its connection to a classic Bing Crosby film from the 1940s, yet as the overture(序曲) began and the cast started singing, I experienced that life-changing moment once again. It reminded me why performing is my passion and renewed my commitment to the art form. Musical theatre has become a huge part of my identity. It uniquely combines music, acting, and dance into an art form that touches the heart and electrifies the spirit. I owe much of my growth to the amazing teachers who guided me along the way. Music holds great importance in my life, and I owe it all to those who came before me. Musical theatre has the power to change us, lifting us up and opening our eyes. 1. Which event marked the beginning of the author’s musical theatre journey? A. Taking piano lessons as a child. B. Watching Seussical the Musical. C. Performing in Anne of Green Gables. D. Joining drama festivals in high school. 2. What dan we infer about the author’s high school experience? A. He stayed active in theatre through plays. B. He stopped performing without musicals. C. He participated in a few favourite musicals. D. He regretted missing musical opportunities. 3. What does the “overture” in Holiday Inn symbolize for the author? A. A connection to an old movie. B. The technical skills in theatre. C. Boredom from a long bus ride. D. The return of his love for musicals. 4. What is the best title for the text? A. The Magic of Music. B. Musical Theatre, Myself. C. My Preference for Music. D. Musical Theatre, My Dream. 七、七选五 (2025高一下·河北沧州·阶段练习)Perhaps you love listening to a happy song when you need to cheer up.

This is because listening to music releases a chemical that activates your brain’s reward and pleasure centers. It can increase your motivation In one study, researchers wanted to test the effect of music on the motivation levels of cyclists on bikes. To do this, they changed the speed of the music without the participants’ knowledge. When they increased the speed, the cyclists’ performance increased in terms of distance, speed, and power. 5 .
