As we often use eyes to touch nature, most of us “lose” the ability to listen to the world.
Peter writes music. He likes sounds and uses natural sounds as part of his music. He often went out to the wild with his microphone and recorded interesting sounds to put in movies or to use in his own songs. Instead of trying to capture just the sound of one animal or bird, he recorded the sound of everything all together—the animals, the trees, the wind and the earth. He called these recordings “soundscapes”—the sound of a certain place. Every soundscape Peter recorded had a lot of information.
Back in his workshop, Peter used a computer to make a picture of all the sounds going on in a place. Each animal, bird and insect had its own place on the picture—its own notes in the music. The busier the picture, the richer the life in that place. “While a picture may be worth 1,000 words, a soundscape is worth 1,000 pictures,” Peter said. “Our ears tell us the sound of every leaf and animal and speak to the natural sources (来源) of our lives, which may hold the secrets of love for all things, especially our own humanity.”
But not everything is satisfying. When Peter began recording over forty years ago, he could record for ten hours and get one hour of usable material good enough for a movie. Now, because of human activities, it can take up to 1,000 hours or more to get the same thing. Some of the places he has recorded over the years have slowly fallen silent. His sound pictures show that although nature might look the same to humans, it has lost part of its orchestra (管弦乐队).
So next time you are in the forests, try another way to look—shut your eyes, and listen.
11. Why did Peter record natural sounds?
A. To write songs for a music group. B. To discover rich lives in the forest.
C. To use some of them in his music. D. To make music about birds singing.
12. What does the underlined word “capture” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Shut. B. Catch. C. Touch. D. Check.
13. What is a sound picture in the text?
A. The sound of every leaf and animal in nature.
B. The sound recorded in the natural environment.
C. A picture of music with sounds of 1,000 animals.
D. A picture of music with natural sounds in a place.
14. What can we learn from paragraph 4?
A. Recording sounds needs less material. B. Sound pictures are the same as before.
C. Some beautiful sounds in nature are lost. D. Human activities improve recording results.
15. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A. Nature is the source of our future. B. Nature has wonders to be heard.
C. Making music enriches our lives. D. Making music needs information.
【答案】11. C 12. B 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了Peter通过录制自然声音来创作音乐,并强调了自然声音的丰富性和重要性。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据“He often went out to the wild with his microphone and recorded interesting sounds to put in movies or to use in his own songs.”可知,Peter录制自然声音是为了在他的音乐中使用这些声音。故选C。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“Instead of trying to capture just the sound of one animal or bird, he recorded the sound of everything all together—the animals, the trees, the wind and the earth”可知他没有试图只捕捉一种动物或鸟类的声音,而是把所有东西的声音都记录下来,故此处划线部分意为“捕捉”,和catch意义相近。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Peter used a computer to make a picture of all the sounds going on in a place. Each animal, bird and insect had its own place on the picture—its own notes in the music”可知“sound picture”是指用计算机制作的包含某个地方所有声音的图片,即包含自然声音的音乐图片。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Now, because of human activities, it can take up to 1,000 hours or more to get the same thing. Some of the places he has recorded over the years have slowly fallen silent.”可知由于人类活动的影响,一些自然声音已经逐渐消失。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了Peter通过录制自然声音来创作音乐,并强调了自然声音的丰富性和重要性,所以文章主要告诉我们大自然有奇妙的声音。故选B。

After failing to realize her dream in the capital of Xinjiang, Li has to move back to her hometown and tries to find a new direction for herself. At first, Li finds it hard to understand her neighbours’ traditional way of thinking. Under the influence of her mother Zhang Fengxia, Li starts to see the place and its people in a new light.

As we often use eyes to touch nature, most of us “lose” the ability to listen to the world.
Peter writes music. He likes sounds and uses natural sounds as part of his music. He often went out to the wild with his microphone and recorded interesting sounds to put in movies or to use in his own songs. Instead of trying to capture just the sound of one animal or bird, he recorded the sound of everything all together—the animals, the trees, the wind and the earth. He called these recordings “soundscapes”—the sound of a certain place. Every soundscape Peter recorded had a lot of information.
Back in his workshop, Peter used a computer to make a picture of all the sounds going on in a place. Each animal, bird and insect had its own place on the picture—its own notes in the music. The busier the picture, the richer the life in that place. “While a picture may be worth 1,000 words, a soundscape is worth 1,000 pictures,” Peter said. “Our ears tell us the sound of every leaf and animal and speak to the natural sources (来源) of our lives, which may hold the secrets of love for all things, especially our own humanity.”
But not everything is satisfying. When Peter began recording over forty years ago, he could record for ten hours and get one hour of usable material good enough for a movie. Now, because of human activities, it can take up to 1,000 hours or more to get the same thing. Some of the places he has recorded over the years have slowly fallen silent. His sound pictures show that although nature might look the same to humans, it has lost part of its orchestra (管弦乐队).
So next time you are in the forests, try another way to look—shut your eyes, and listen.
11. Why did Peter record natural sounds?
A. To write songs for a music group. B. To discover rich lives in the forest.
C. To use some of them in his music. D. To make music about birds singing.
12. What does the underlined word “capture” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Shut. B. Catch. C. Touch. D. Check.
13. What is a sound picture in the text?
A. The sound of every leaf and animal in nature.
B. The sound recorded in the natural environment.
C. A picture of music with sounds of 1,000 animals.
D A picture of music with natural sounds in a place.
14. What can we learn from paragraph 4?
A. Recording sounds needs less material. B. Sound pictures are the same as before.
C. Some beautiful sounds in nature are lost. D. Human activities improve recording results.
15. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A. Nature is the source of our future. B. Nature has wonders to be heard.
C. Making music enriches our lives. D. Making music needs information.
