In front of me was the Maverick Concert Hall— 11 the “concert hall” didn’t feel like the right word for it. It looked more like a wooden barn (谷仓) than a 12 concert hall. When I sat down, the bench creaked under my weight. I looked at the stage, and a title jumped out at me: 4'33" by John Cage. I thought 13 myself: “Four minutes and thirty-three seconds... of what?” The title sounded special, and it made me 14 even more. Then the pianist stepped onto the stage and sat at the piano. He 15 the piano cover, placed the sheet music on the stand, and set a watch. We all waited, but he just looked at the watch and did 16 . At first, everyone waited in 17 , but it soon became awkward(尴尬的). What’s going on? Did I come to the wrong concert? I felt so 18 and didn’t understand the situation. All of a sudden, a loud cough broke the silence. People started 19 to each other. Outside, wind brushed the leaves, making a soft shhh sound. Somewhere in the woods, a bird called out once. And then, I 20 the smallest sounds that I almost never paid attention to: my own breathing and heartbeat. Suddenly, I understood 21 the pianist didn’t play anything. Every sound around us was part of the 22 . There was no such thing as perfect silence—only sounds we don’t notice until we 23 and pay attention. On my way out, I found myself listening more 24 to the sounds around me. The night felt 25 than before, but in a wonderful way. Every footstep, the sound of wind brushing trees, and even faraway voices...they all mixed into beautiful music. 11．A．unless B．though C．since D．if 12．A．bright B．common C．large D．general 13．A．with B．for C．to D．by 14．A．wonder B．decide C．follow D．hope 15．A．touched B．opened C．moved D．played 16．A．everything B．something C．anything D．nothing 17．A．danger B．surprise C．silence D．trouble 18．A．worried B．tired C．excited D．lonely 19．A．laughing B．shouting C．singing D．whispering 20．A．forgot B．remembered C．noticed D．missed 21．A．how B．why C．when D．where 22．A．concert B．stage C．noise D．game 23．A．slow down B．hurry up C．look down D．cheer up 24．A．bravely B．properly C．hardly D．carefully 25．A．louder B．calmer C．brighter D．colder 三、阅读理解。(本大题共20小题，每小题2分，共40分) A The SOWAT BROTHERS are back in town!

It appears in different ways—such as a parent’s unconditional care, a friend’s heartfelt support, and a lover’s burning passion. It is also an unchanging theme in works of art from ancient times to the present, both in the East and the West. Here are the lyrics of the song Make You Feel My Love, by Bob Dylan, a rock and folk music artist, who was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize for Literature (文学) on October 13, 2016. When the rain is blowing in your face, and the whole world is on your case, I could offer you a warm embrace, to make you feel my love. When the evening shadows and the stars appear, and there is no one there to dry your tears, I could hold you for a million years, to make you feel my love. I know you haven’t made your mind up yet, but I would never do you wrong. I’ve known it from the moment that we met, no doubt in my mind where you belong. I’d go hungry;I’d go black and blue, I’d  go crawling down the avenue. No, there’s nothing that I wouldn’t do, to make you feel my love. The storms are raging on the rolling sea, and on the highway of regret. Though, winds of change are blowing wild and free, you ain’t seen nothing like me yet. I could make you happy, make your dreams come true. Nothing that I wouldn’t do. Go to the ends of the Earth for you, to make you feel my love 29．What can you learn from the passage? A．Love is the only theme of art in the world. B．The love between parents and children is a burning passion. C．Bob Dylan has won the Nobel Prize for Literature once. D．Bob Dylan is a famous writer instead of a rock and folk music artist. 30．What may the underlined phrase“on your case”mean in the song? A．Waiting for your reply patiently. B．Making you feel troubled or worried. C．Standing by your side to support you. D．Asking you for help in different ways. 31．In the song, Bob Dylan mainly used ____ to express how he was willing to do anything for his lover. A．descriptions of feelings B．examples of specific actions C．repetitions of classic English sayings D．comparisons of different life experiences C Music is beauty in sounds. Why not make your own music with the help of AI? Artificial intelligence (AI) can do many different things. From controlling the lights in our homes to helping us order pizzas, it seems there aren’t many more uses for AI than we already have. However, can AI make music like human beings? Thanks to a team of Swiss scientists, AI may soon be able to come up with music especially for us. Researchers at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland have created a computer algorithm (算法), the “Deep Artificial composer” (DAC), which can create original music all by itself. Florian Colombo, an EPFL scientist who helped create the DAC, said that AI could produce complete melodies (旋律), with a beginning and an end. At present, the DAC is only able to produce several pieces of traditional Irish folk music, but it’s hoped that it will be able to create songs based on any type of music in the end. To “teach” the DAC, the scientists trained it to “listen” to over 2,000 different folk songs. Based on this input (输入), the AI taught itself how to compose music, from getting the pitch (音高) and timing right, to choosing the right notes. This process is still in its early stages, with the DAC still not producing perfect results, but Colombo told AFP that the AI’s music is still “quite pleasant to listen to.” While the idea sounds very hopeful, we shouldn’t expect the DAC to replace real-life composers any time soon. According to Colombo, the system was designed to produce only simple melodies. So far, it can only create songs based on a single instrument. Colombo said that his purpose in creating the DAC was to help people create their own music, not to have it made for them. His exciting new ideas came from Austrian composer Wolfgang Mozart. It’s said that he used to throw dice (掷骰子) to help him pick which notes to use when making new music. “A good composer with creative ideas will never be replaced by an algorithm.” Colombo told AFP. 32．How does the writer begin the passage? A．By sharing different ideas on AI. B．By explaining the meaning of AI. C．By showing the development of AI. D．By presenting the advantages of AI. 33．Why does Colombo mention Austrian composer Wolfgang Mozart? A．To express his respect for Mozart. B．To present his achievement on AI music. C．To praise Mozart’s contribution to music. D．To explain his purpose in creating the DAC． 34．What can we learn about the DAC from the passage? A．The DAC was refused by some composers. B．The DAC can’t be used instead of real-life composers. C．Music creation has to depend on the DAC． D．Scientists are amazed at music made by the DAC． 35．Which can be a suitable title for the passage? A．AI is Changing Music Creation B．AI Composers VS Human Composers C．How AI Replaces Human Composers D．Colombo Helped Create the DAC D Bianzhong: It’s been a long time, Bianqing. We’ve stood the test of time and played our roles in shaping ancient Chinese music and culture. Bianqing: Yes, indeed. It’s amazing how your bronze (青铜) bells are made to produce such powerful sounds. Bianzhong: Thank you. My bells are hung on a wooden frame and struck with a mallet (木槌) to make their special sound. Each one is carefully made to hit one different sound. But you, Bianqing, have your own unusual qualities. Bianqing: That’s true. Though we share a similar structure, I’m made of jade (玉) or stone, which gives me a softer, clearer and more beautiful sound. In a way, we’re tied together and shouldn’t be separated.When we’re played, your strength balances my beauty, creating a sense of harmony. And unlike many other instruments, we’re only kept and enjoyed for the nobility (贵族). Bianzhong: Exactly. We were symbols of power and status. Only the nobility and top officers were allowed to play, enjoy and learn to use us. The Bianzhong of Marquis Yi of Zeng (曾侯乙编钟) is a fine example. The skill of this treasure has caused people’s imagination since its discovery in 1978.We also played an important role in big state ceremonies or gatherings. Bianqing: True. We helped create a serious atmosphere (氛围). Many believed our sounds helped people connect with their ancestors (祖先) and heaven. Bianzhong: Indeed. Our role in these events also presented the values that were central to the culture of the time, like harmony, order, and respect for tradition. Bianqing: Our tales live on, Bianzhong. Our music is being rediscovered by people today. I’m confident we will continue to encourage future people. Bianzhong: Surely. Our sounds will be heard through the centuries, showing the beauty and depth of ancient Chinese music. 36．What does the underlined word “harmony” probably mean? A．power B．peace C．happiness D．warmth 37．What features do Bianzhong and Bianqing have in common? ①a long history    ②powerful sounds    ③be popular with all people ④be enjoyed only by the nobility and top officers ⑤a symbol of Chinese music A．②③④ B．①②⑤ C．②③⑤ D．①④⑤ 38．What’s the relationship between Bianzhong and Bianqing most probably like? A．Father and son. B．Brother and sister. C．Teacher and student. D．Leader and follower. 39．What methods does the writer use to write the passage? A．Expressing ideas as humans. B．Interviewing some people. C．Listing numbers to prove. D．Explaining reasons. 40．What does the writer want to tell us? A．Bianzhong and Bianqing are better than other instruments. B．Bianzhong and Bianqing are being rediscovered by people. C．Bianzhong and Bianqing show the depth of ancient Chinese culture. D．Bianzhong and Bianqing both have their own unusual qualities. 阅读以下内容，从其后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，有两项是多余的。 Why Does Music from Our Youth Sound So Special? People say the music they listened to when they were young seems so special. Have you wondered why? 41 Reminiscence bump (怀旧高峰) effect Psychologists have found that people often have strong memories of experiences from ages 10 to 30. 42 This period is usually full of important life changes, such as going to middle school, falling in love, or choosing a career. These memories shape our love for books, movies, sports stars, and especially music. Nature of musical memories 43 Unlike other memories that might fade over time, musical memories are deeply rooted in our minds. As a result, the music we listen to during our youth often has a very long-lasting influence and is often remembered better than music from other times. Music and feelings The music we listen to in our youth forms strong connections with our feelings. When we listen to this music later in life, it acts like a time machine. It will bring back warm and good feelings instantly. 44 Even though the music caused bad feelings in our youth, it can provide comfort now because we have survived those hard times. In a word, the music of our youth is more than just sound. It works as a key to open the doors to our past. 45 A．We sometimes listen to music to relax ourselves. B．This period is often called the “reminiscence bump(怀旧高峰)”. C．It also allows us to live those valuable moments again. D．Music can improve our memory and help us learn better. E．There are some psychological reasons for this phenomenon. F．Musical memories are kept in a very “safe” area of the brain. G．You might even remember exactly what you were doing when you first heard a certain song. 四、短文填空(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) To me, music is food and water. I can’t live without i 46 . I know this is not true for everybody. Many people don’t listen to music b 47 they want to be quiet. Music is e 48 in our life. For example, when you watch films or TV plays, do you think they are i 49 if there is no music? Of course, they are boring. And when you are w 50 for the train or the plane, you would like to listen to music because it makes the time seem s 51 . It is true that music is always in our life. Some people like to sit by the s 52 and listen to the sound of the waves (波浪). Some e 53 listening to the singing of birds. Those sounds are also some kinds of music. So music has meaning f 54 everyone in some way. We spend our lives playing or listening to music. Someone said, “Through music a child goes into a world of beauty, learns to take care of others and makes his or her m 55 and body strong.” Music is an important part of our lives. 五、选词填空(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 从方框中选择恰当的词或短语并用其正确形式填空 (每个词或短语限用一次)。 earn sb great respect and success, show an interest in, become familiar with, mix together, a wide range fill one’s heart with joy, allow…to…, be about to do sth., all the time, talent 56.Tan Dun’s unique musical style ______ him ______ in the music industry. 57.Many world-famous composers ______ music when they were little children. 58.If you listen to classical music daily, you will ______ Western music soon. 59.Tan’s masterpieces ______ traditional Chinese tones and modern Western melodies ______ perfectly. 60.The piano can create ______ gentle and powerful sounds for listeners. 61.Mozart’s wonderful music always ______ my heart ______. 62.His special educational background ______ him ______ build a bridge between two music styles. 63.I ______ download the full opera when my phone suddenly ran out of power. 64.I keep The Magic Flute on my phone and enjoy it ______. 65.Tan Dun has amazing musical ______ and he creates music with common daily objects. 六、任务型阅读(本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) On May 5th, a “Silent Disco” was held in the main hall of the City Central Library, attracting over 300 teenagers. At first glance, the scene was strange: dozens of young people were dancing energetically, but the room was almost completely quiet. Each dancer wore a pair of wireless headphones through which the DJ played different music. “It’s amazing,” said 15-year-old Li Ming, taking off his headphones for a moment. “I can choose between two music channels. One plays pop music, and the other plays electronic dance music. I can even control the volume myself.” His friend, Zhang Wei, added, “It’s much less embarrassing than dancing in a normal club. No one can hear how bad your singing is!” The event was organized by the library to attract more young visitors. “We want to change the old impression that libraries are only for silent reading,” said the event organizer, Ms. Chen. “A silent disco allows people to have fun, dance, and socialize without disturbing (打扰) the readers who are studying in other parts of the library.” The event was a huge success. Many teenagers said it was the most fun they had ever had in a library. However, some adults expressed concerns. “Libraries should be places for peace and study, not dance floors,” said one parent, Mr. Wang. In response, Ms. Chen explained that the event was held in a separate, soundproof area of the library, and noise levels outside the hall remained below 40 decibels (分贝), which is quieter than a normal conversation. She added that the library plans to host more such creative events in the future. 66．What made the disco “silent”? 67．How many music channels could the dancers choose from? 68．Why did the library hold this event? 69．What was Mr. Wang’s opinion about the event? 70．According to Ms. Chen, what will the library probably do next? 七、书面表达(25分) 作家雨果说过：“开启人类智慧的钥匙有三把，一是字母，二是数字，三是音符。”这足以体现音乐对人类发展的影响。请你根据以下要点和要求，以“Music”为题，写一篇短文。 要点： 1.音乐使人充满活力，让人快乐； 2.没有音乐，生活就没有乐趣； 3.你最喜欢的音乐及原因； 4.你不能忍受的音乐及原因。 要求： 1.短文必须包括所有要点内容，可适当增加细节； 2.词数100左右。 Music _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 1 / 7 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司zxxk.com 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 5 Music speaks单元自测（新教材译林版） 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：90分钟，满分：120分） 一、单项选择。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 1．The ______ singer has a natural ______ for country music.

It appears in different ways—such as a parent’s unconditional care, a friend’s heartfelt support, and a lover’s burning passion. It is also an unchanging theme in works of art from ancient times to the present, both in the East and the West. Here are the lyrics of the song Make You Feel My Love, by Bob Dylan, a rock and folk music artist, who was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize for Literature (文学) on October 13, 2016. When the rain is blowing in your face, and the whole world is on your case, I could offer you a warm embrace, to make you feel my love. When the evening shadows and the stars appear, and there is no one there to dry your tears, I could hold you for a million years, to make you feel my love. I know you haven’t made your mind up yet, but I would never do you wrong. I’ve known it from the moment that we met, no doubt in my mind where you belong. I’d go hungry;I’d go black and blue, I’d  go crawling down the avenue. No, there’s nothing that I wouldn’t do, to make you feel my love. The storms are raging on the rolling sea, and on the highway of regret. Though, winds of change are blowing wild and free, you ain’t seen nothing like me yet. I could make you happy, make your dreams come true. Nothing that I wouldn’t do. Go to the ends of the Earth for you, to make you feel my love 29．What can you learn from the passage? A．Love is the only theme of art in the world. B．The love between parents and children is a burning passion. C．Bob Dylan has won the Nobel Prize for Literature once. D．Bob Dylan is a famous writer instead of a rock and folk music artist. 30．What may the underlined phrase“on your case”mean in the song? A．Waiting for your reply patiently. B．Making you feel troubled or worried. C．Standing by your side to support you. D．Asking you for help in different ways. 31．In the song, Bob Dylan mainly used ____ to express how he was willing to do anything for his lover. A．descriptions of feelings B．examples of specific actions C．repetitions of classic English sayings D．comparisons of different life experiences 【答案】29．C 30．B 31．B 【导语】本文介绍了 “爱” 的普遍性和艺术永恒性，并节选鲍勃・迪伦的歌曲歌词，用具体行动表达对爱人的深情。 29．本文介绍了“爱”的普遍性和艺术永恒性，并节选鲍勃・迪伦的歌曲歌词，用具体行动表达对爱人的深情。 30．歌词中前两句 “When the rain is blowing in your face, and the whole world is on your case”，结合语境，雨水打在脸上，通常是困境的象征，后文紧接着提到“我可以给你一个温暖的拥抱，让你感受到我的爱”，由此可推断，“on your case”应是表达“让你感到困扰或担忧”的意思。A 项“耐心等待你的回复”、C 项“站在你身边支持你”、D项“以不同方式向你求助”，均与语境不符。 31．歌词中提到“I could offer you a warm embrace”“I could hold you for a million years”“I’d go hungry； I’d go black and blue, I’d go crawling down the avenue”“Go to the ends of the Earth for you”等，都是具体的行动例子，通过这些具体行动，表达了愿意为爱人做任何事的决心。A项 “自然场景描写” 是衬托情感，并非主要表达方式；C项 “经典英语谚语重复”、D项 “不同生活经历对比”，文中均未体现。 C Music is beauty in sounds. Why not make your own music with the help of AI? Artificial intelligence (AI) can do many different things. From controlling the lights in our homes to helping us order pizzas, it seems there aren’t many more uses for AI than we already have. However, can AI make music like human beings? Thanks to a team of Swiss scientists, AI may soon be able to come up with music especially for us. Researchers at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland have created a computer algorithm (算法), the “Deep Artificial composer” (DAC), which can create original music all by itself. Florian Colombo, an EPFL scientist who helped create the DAC, said that AI could produce complete melodies (旋律), with a beginning and an end. At present, the DAC is only able to produce several pieces of traditional Irish folk music, but it’s hoped that it will be able to create songs based on any type of music in the end. To “teach” the DAC, the scientists trained it to “listen” to over 2,000 different folk songs. Based on this input (输入), the AI taught itself how to compose music, from getting the pitch (音高) and timing right, to choosing the right notes. This process is still in its early stages, with the DAC still not producing perfect results, but Colombo told AFP that the AI’s music is still “quite pleasant to listen to.” While the idea sounds very hopeful, we shouldn’t expect the DAC to replace real-life composers any time soon. According to Colombo, the system was designed to produce only simple melodies. So far, it can only create songs based on a single instrument. Colombo said that his purpose in creating the DAC was to help people create their own music, not to have it made for them. His exciting new ideas came from Austrian composer Wolfgang Mozart. It’s said that he used to throw dice (掷骰子) to help him pick which notes to use when making new music. “A good composer with creative ideas will never be replaced by an algorithm.” Colombo told AFP. 32．How does the writer begin the passage? A．By sharing different ideas on AI. B．By explaining the meaning of AI. C．By showing the development of AI. D．By presenting the advantages of AI. 33．Why does Colombo mention Austrian composer Wolfgang Mozart? A．To express his respect for Mozart. B．To present his achievement on AI music. C．To praise Mozart’s contribution to music. D．To explain his purpose in creating the DAC． 34．What can we learn about the DAC from the passage? A．The DAC was refused by some composers. B．The DAC can’t be used instead of real-life composers. C．Music creation has to depend on the DAC． D．Scientists are amazed at music made by the DAC． 35．Which can be a suitable title for the passage? A．AI is Changing Music Creation B．AI Composers VS Human Composers C．How AI Replaces Human Composers D．Colombo Helped Create the DAC 【答案】32．A 33．D 34．B 35．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了瑞士科学家开发的“深度人工作曲家”（DAC）算法，该算法能够自主创作音乐，虽然目前只能创作简单的爱尔兰民间音乐，但未来有望基于任何类型的音乐进行创作，同时强调AI不会取代人类作曲家。 【详解】32．第一段以“Music is beauty in sounds. Why not make your own music with the help of AI?”开篇，接着第二段列举AI的多种用途（控制灯光、帮忙订披萨等），引出AI能否像人类一样创作音乐的问题。因此作者通过分享AI的不同用途来引入话题。 33．倒数第二段指出：“Colombo said that his purpose in creating the DAC was to help people create their own music, not to have it made for them. His exciting new ideas came from Austrian composer Wolfgang Mozart.”，说明Colombo提到莫扎特是为了解释他创建DAC的目的——莫扎特曾用掷骰子的方式帮助选择音符，这启发了Colombo。 34．倒数第三段指出：“we shouldn’t expect the DAC to replace real-life composers any time soon.”，说明DAC无法取代现实生活中的作曲家，B项正确。 35．全文围绕AI（DAC）如何自主创作音乐展开，介绍了DAC的工作原理、当前局限性和未来前景，因此“AI is Changing Music Creation”（AI正在改变音乐创作）最能概括文章主旨。 D Bianzhong: It’s been a long time, Bianqing. We’ve stood the test of time and played our roles in shaping ancient Chinese music and culture. Bianqing: Yes, indeed. It’s amazing how your bronze (青铜) bells are made to produce such powerful sounds. Bianzhong: Thank you. My bells are hung on a wooden frame and struck with a mallet (木槌) to make their special sound. Each one is carefully made to hit one different sound. But you, Bianqing, have your own unusual qualities. Bianqing: That’s true. Though we share a similar structure, I’m made of jade (玉) or stone, which gives me a softer, clearer and more beautiful sound. In a way, we’re tied together and shouldn’t be separated.When we’re played, your strength balances my beauty, creating a sense of harmony. And unlike many other instruments, we’re only kept and enjoyed for the nobility (贵族). Bianzhong: Exactly. We were symbols of power and status. Only the nobility and top officers were allowed to play, enjoy and learn to use us. The Bianzhong of Marquis Yi of Zeng (曾侯乙编钟) is a fine example. The skill of this treasure has caused people’s imagination since its discovery in 1978.We also played an important role in big state ceremonies or gatherings. Bianqing: True. We helped create a serious atmosphere (氛围). Many believed our sounds helped people connect with their ancestors (祖先) and heaven. Bianzhong: Indeed. Our role in these events also presented the values that were central to the culture of the time, like harmony, order, and respect for tradition. Bianqing: Our tales live on, Bianzhong. Our music is being rediscovered by people today. I’m confident we will continue to encourage future people. Bianzhong: Surely. Our sounds will be heard through the centuries, showing the beauty and depth of ancient Chinese music. 36．What does the underlined word “harmony” probably mean? A．power B．peace C．happiness D．warmth 37．What features do Bianzhong and Bianqing have in common? ①a long history    ②powerful sounds    ③be popular with all people ④be enjoyed only by the nobility and top officers ⑤a symbol of Chinese music A．②③④ B．①②⑤ C．②③⑤ D．①④⑤ 38．What’s the relationship between Bianzhong and Bianqing most probably like? A．Father and son. B．Brother and sister. C．Teacher and student. D．Leader and follower. 39．What methods does the writer use to write the passage? A．Expressing ideas as humans. B．Interviewing some people. C．Listing numbers to prove. D．Explaining reasons. 40．What does the writer want to tell us? A．Bianzhong and Bianqing are better than other instruments. B．Bianzhong and Bianqing are being rediscovered by people. C．Bianzhong and Bianqing show the depth of ancient Chinese culture. D．Bianzhong and Bianqing both have their own unusual qualities. 【答案】36．B 37．D 38．B 39．A 40．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，通过编钟与编磬的拟人对话，介绍两者的材质、音色特点及在古代的地位，展现其对中国古代音乐文化的深远意义。 36．词句猜测题。根据“your strength balances my beauty, creating a sense of harmony”可知，编钟的厚重与编磬的清脆相互平衡，营造出“和谐”的感觉，“harmony”意为“和谐”，与“peace”语义最贴近，故选B。 37． 细节理解题。根据“We’ve been standing the test of time”（①悠久历史）、“we’re only kept and enjoyed for the nobility”（④仅贵族和高官享用）、“played our roles in shaping ancient Chinese music”（⑤中国音乐的象征）可知，①④⑤为两者共同点，故选D。 38．推理判断题。文章以编钟和编磬的拟人对话展开，两者地位平等、相互欣赏，像兄妹般的伙伴关系，故选B。 39．推理判断题。全文以编钟和编磬的对话形式展开，将两种古代乐器拟人化，用第一人称交流自身特点、历史和意义，所以作者使用了“拟人化表达观点”的写作手法，故选A。 40．主旨大意题。根据“played our roles in shaping ancient Chinese music and culture”“showing the beauty and depth of ancient Chinese music”可知，作者旨在说明编钟和编磬体现了中国古代文化的深度，故选C。 阅读以下内容，从其后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，有两项是多余的。 Why Does Music from Our Youth Sound So Special? People say the music they listened to when they were young seems so special. Have you wondered why? 41 Reminiscence bump (怀旧高峰) effect Psychologists have found that people often have strong memories of experiences from ages 10 to 30. 42 This period is usually full of important life changes, such as going to middle school, falling in love, or choosing a career. These memories shape our love for books, movies, sports stars, and especially music. Nature of musical memories 43 Unlike other memories that might fade over time, musical memories are deeply rooted in our minds. As a result, the music we listen to during our youth often has a very long-lasting influence and is often remembered better than music from other times. Music and feelings The music we listen to in our youth forms strong connections with our feelings. When we listen to this music later in life, it acts like a time machine. It will bring back warm and good feelings instantly. 44 Even though the music caused bad feelings in our youth, it can provide comfort now because we have survived those hard times. In a word, the music of our youth is more than just sound. It works as a key to open the doors to our past. 45 A．We sometimes listen to music to relax ourselves. B．This period is often called the “reminiscence bump(怀旧高峰)”. C．It also allows us to live those valuable moments again. D．Music can improve our memory and help us learn better. E．There are some psychological reasons for this phenomenon. F．Musical memories are kept in a very “safe” area of the brain. G．You might even remember exactly what you were doing when you first heard a certain song. 【答案】41．E 42．B 43．F 44．G 45．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要解释了青春时期音乐为何特别：源于记忆隆起效应、音乐记忆的牢固性及与情感的深度联结。 41．首段提出“人们觉得青春时期听的音乐很特别，你想过为什么吗？”此处应引出下文从心理学角度解释原因。E项“There are some psychological reasons for this phenomenon.”（这一现象背后有一些心理学原因。）承上启下，引出后文的具体分析。 42．前文提到“心理学家发现人们在10到30岁之间的经历常留下强烈记忆”，后文进一步解释这一时期充满重要人生变化。此处应给出这一时期的名称。B项“This period is often called the ‘reminiscence bump’.”（这一时期常被称为‘怀旧高峰’。），与上下文衔接自然。 43．本段小标题为“音乐记忆的本质”，设空后提到“与其他记忆不同，音乐记忆根深蒂固”。此处应解释音乐记忆为何特别。F项“Musical memories are kept in a very ‘safe’ area of the brain.”（音乐记忆储存在大脑一个非常‘安全’的区域。）点明其特殊性，与后文形成因果或补充关系。 44．本段讲“音乐与情感”，前文提到“听青春时期的音乐会像时光机，瞬间带回温暖感受”。此处进一步举例说明这种记忆的具体程度。G项“You might even remember exactly what you were doing when you first heard a certain song.”（你甚至可能清楚记得第一次听某首歌时自己在做什么。）是对前文“瞬间带回”的生动补充。 45．前文总结“青春时期的音乐不仅是声音，它是打开过去之门的钥匙”。此处应进一步说明它的作用。C项“It also allows us to live those valuable moments again.”（它也让我们重新体验那些珍贵的时刻。）与“钥匙”的比喻呼应，点明音乐让我们重新体验过去的意义。 四、短文填空(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) To me, music is food and water.

At first glance, the scene was strange: dozens of young people were dancing energetically, but the room was almost completely quiet. Each dancer wore a pair of wireless headphones through which the DJ played different music. “It’s amazing,” said 15-year-old Li Ming, taking off his headphones for a moment. “I can choose between two music channels. One plays pop music, and the other plays electronic dance music. I can even control the volume myself.” His friend, Zhang Wei, added, “It’s much less embarrassing than dancing in a normal club. No one can hear how bad your singing is!” The event was organized by the library to attract more young visitors. “We want to change the old impression that libraries are only for silent reading,” said the event organizer, Ms. Chen. “A silent disco allows people to have fun, dance, and socialize without disturbing (打扰) the readers who are studying in other parts of the library.” The event was a huge success. Many teenagers said it was the most fun they had ever had in a library. However, some adults expressed concerns. “Libraries should be places for peace and study, not dance floors,” said one parent, Mr. Wang.
