Moments later, Paul O’ Sullivan had many name twins from around the world filling his screen. He decided to send friend requests (请求) to them all. Many Paul O’ Sullivans pay little attention to him, but a few took up his invitation. “My first thought was ‘Who is this guy and what does he want from me?’” says Paul O’ Sullivan from Rotterdam, the Netherlands—now known as Rotterdam Paul. Baltimore Paul noticed something four of them had in common: They were all musicians. He had an idea. Wouldn’t it be funny if they formed a band (乐队) called The Paul O’ Sullivans? They all agreed. Starting a band across several time zones means a lot of problems, like shaky Wi-Fi and other technical difficulties. To fix this, they came up with a special idea. Baltimore Paul and Rotterdam Paul record a basic track (音轨), then e-mail it to Manchester Paul. Once Manchester Paul records a bass track, he e-mails it back to Baltimore Paul, who then builds it into the main song. Later, Pennsylvania Paul adds the drumbeat. Round and round the track goes until they achieve the sound they want. The Paul O’ Sullivan Band released (发布) its first song, “Namesake”, in March 2016. It’s a cheerful song about long-distance friendships. But just months after the song’s release, Baltimore Paul began experiencing health problems that forced him to stop making music. The other Pauls decided to take a break too—from the band. But they didn’t stop their friendship. The other Pauls made sure Baltimore Paul never felt alone. They often shared family pictures and talked online. Four years later, Baltimore Paul was well enough to start making music again. But now their international connection took on new meaning. “Writing a song with someone across the world makes you feel less trapped (困住) and less unhappy because of the pandemic,” says Baltimore Paul. 1. How did Rotterdam Paul feel about Baltimore Paul’s request at first? A. Curious. B. Excited. C. Nervous. D. Annoyed. 2. How did the Pauls record their first song? A. By recording their song at the same time online. B. By getting together and recording a small part each time. C. By making a piece of music and adding their tracks separately. D. By inventing new technology allowing them to record together. 3. Why did the Pauls stop making music after their first song? A. One of them was ill. B. One of them was too busy. C. They wanted to change their style. D. They found it hard to work online. 4. What does the Pauls’ international connection bring to them now? A. Wealth. B. Comfort. C. Many concerts. D. More friendships. 参考答案 I. 单句语法填空 1. relief 2. absorbed 3. aims 4. unemployed 5. previously 6. to cure 7. romantic 8. set 9. employment 10. aimless II. 用动词的适当形式填空 1. Asked 2.
