By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova — not as a musician but as her page turner. “I'm not a trained musician, but I've learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.”
Mr Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group's official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn't have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.
“A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don't turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr Titterton explained.
Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.
But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand,” Mr Titterton said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”
Most page turners are piano students or upandcoming concert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage.
“My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He's interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’ “Robert is the best page turner I've had in my entire life.”
[语篇解读] 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了为钢琴演奏者做翻页工作的Robert Titterton和他的工作情况。
4.What should Titterton be able to do to be a page turner?
A.Read music. B.Play the piano.
C.Sing songs. D.Fix the instruments.
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第一段“I'm not a trained musician, but I've learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.(我不是受过训练的音乐家,但我学会了识谱,这样我就可以在Maria的表演中帮助她)”可知,Titterton因为识谱,所以可以在Maria的钢琴表演中为她翻页。故选A项。
5.Which of the following best describes Titterton's job on stage?
A.Boring. B.Wellpaid.
C.Demanding. D.Dangerous.
解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第三段“A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don't turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.(这项工作需要很多技能。你必须确保你不会一次翻两页并且必要的时候确保你回到前面找到音乐重复的部分)”可知,为钢琴家翻页这项工作很需要技巧。由此推知,Titterton的工作要求是很高的。故选C项。
6.What does Titterton need to practise?
A.Counting the pages.
B.Recognizing the “nodding”.
C.Catching falling objects.
D.Performing in his own style.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第四段“Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.(无声的舞台交流是关键,每个钢琴家都有自己的“点头”风格来表示翻页,他们需要和翻页者进行练习)”可知,Titterton需要和钢琴演奏者练习识别他们的“点头”示意来翻页。故选B项。
7.Why is Ms Raspopova's husband “the worse page turner”?
A.He has very poor eyesight.
B.He ignores the audience.
C.He has no interest in music.
D.He forgets to do his job.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据最后一段“He's interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’(他对音乐很感兴趣,感受着每一个音符,所以我不得不说:“翻页,翻页!”)”可知,Ms Raspopova的丈夫因为对音乐感兴趣,所以帮她翻页的时候总是沉浸在音乐中而忘掉自己的工作,她不得不去提醒。故选D项。

Chinese President Xi Jinping announced on July 31 that China's BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) has been completed and has started providing fullscale global services that day.
In the 1990s, Chinese government approved and began research and development of a spacebased navigation and positioning system aimed at easing the country's heavy dependence on foreign networks. The system is called “BeiDou”. It has planned a threestep strategy for developing the BDS.
The construction of BDS1, the first step of the strategy, started in 1994 and was completed in 2000. The BDS2 system started construction in 2004. By 2012,a total of 14 satellites had been launched to complete the deployment(部署).In November 2017, China launched the first two satellites for the BDS3 system, which started construction in 2009, and officially expanded its regional navigation system into a global network.
In late June, the final satellite to complete BeiDou's thirdgeneration network was lifted by a Long March 3B carrier rocket. After inorbit tests over the past month, the satellite recently started its formal operations.
Since 2000, 59 BeiDou satellites, including the first four experimental ones, have been launched from Xichang on 44 Long March 3series rockets, with some of them having retired.
BeiDou began providing services for civilian users in China and other parts of the AsiaPacific region in December 2012. At the end of 2018, it started providing basic global services. BeiDou offers accurate positioning, navigation and timing, as well as short messaging communication. The services are used in various fields.
It offers an alternative to Russia's GLONASS and the European Union's Galileo system, as well as the United States' GPS.
The operating of BeiDou's fullscale global services is a significant milestone in China's efforts to boost science and technology and strengthen its space industry. The move is a major contribution to the global publicservice infrastructure (基础设施) as well as a remarkable strategic achievement of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.
[语篇解读] 本文是科技类说明文,主要介绍了中国在太空高新技术上的伟大成就:北斗卫星导航系统。内容包括北斗导航系统的组建完成、主要功能和重大意义。
8.How many navigation systems are mentioned in this passage?
A.2. B.3.
C.4. D.5.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“It offers an alternative to Russia's GLONASS and the European Union's Galileo system, as well as the United States' GPS. ” (它(北斗导航系统)为俄罗斯的GLONASS、欧盟的伽利略系统以及美国的GPS提供了另一种选择。)可知,除北斗导航系统外还有俄国的 GLONASS、欧洲的 Galileo system 和美国的 GPS。所以本文共提到 4个导航系统,故选C项。
9.Which is NOT the function of the BDS?
A.Offering accurate timing.
B.Offering vehicle navigation.
C.Offering accurate positions.
D.Offering cell phone communication.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第六段“At the end of 2018, it started providing basic global services. BeiDou offers accurate positioning, navigation and timing, as well as short messaging communication.” (2018年底,开始提供基本的全球服务。北斗提供精确定位、导航和授时,以及短消息通信。)可知,北斗导航系统提供精确定位、导航和授时,以及短消息通信,但没有提及手机通讯服务。故选D项。
10.What do we know about the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System(BDS)?
A.In the BDS, there are 59 satellites in service.
B.The BDS will replace GPS in the near future.
C.The BDS is a great contribution to the whole world.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When Micah was a child, I used to do many things with her. Later, I got promoted and was always on constant business holidays. 3 years' devotion to work resulted in my absence from her life and now she was a teenage girl. Recently, I eventually managed to have abundant time to accompany her.
For the last few weeks, Micah had watched mockingbirds make a nest in a tree and lay eggs there. Sometimes, I came to accompany her without being invited. But whenever I made an attempt to break the ice, “I'm good” was about all she said to me. Code for “Leave me alone”.
“Why doesn't she want to do things with me?”I thought as I set the table for dinner one evening, hoping for an emotion bridge to reappear between us. Did she feel hurt with my long absence or feel ignored? Lost in thought, I was seeking to mend the relationship.
“Mom!” Micah yelled suddenly. “Come quick!”
Surprised, I rushed out, only to find a little baby bird on the ground, weak and helpless. My eyes went to the branches above.
“The wind must have blown him out of the nest,”I said.
“No, it was Mr. Whiskersour cat. You let him go outside!” Micah said, a bit annoyed.
Looking at the nest without the parents, “I'm sorry,”I said and put the bird in my palm cautiously and gently. She didn't respond, but did not refused my offer to help, either. Deciding to take care of the little baby till it became independent, I placed it in its nest. “What should we do next?” I asked. No response again. Instead, Micah went inside and hopped on her iPad. “Bird videos?” I asked. “Yes, I'm finding out what to feed it,” she said seriously.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。

参考范文:
She was more focused than ever. Soon, Micah smiled broadly, “I've got it.” “What do we need?” I asked again. She said the baby bird needed some special bird food. Hearing this, I immediately phoned to place an order. While waiting for delivery, Micah added that we needed to name the bird to build a bond. “How about Chance? I think it has a good chance of making it with your help,” I proposed. She didn't say a word but nodded with a bright smile.
Before long, the bird food was delivered and we fed the bird “Chance” at once. To our relief, the special food was to its taste. The following weeks, we went to feed and check on Chance every day. One day, Micah shared with me happily her finding that Chance became independent. Looking at her shining face, I was almost moved to tears. I never imagined that the bird Chance became the real chance to rebuild the emotion bridge between us. From then, I decided to accompany her more, just as what we had done to Chance. Company is the best love.
