Sunflower 【答案】1.A 2.A 3.A 4.A 5.A 6.A 7.A 8.A 【语篇解析】本文围绕 "The Beauty of Chinese Music" 展开，考生需把握文章主旨，结合上下文语境理解空格处所需词汇的含义、搭配与感情色彩。 1. 【句意解析】翻译：它只有两根琴弦，通常用琴弓拉奏。考点/解析：two strings 意为"两根弦"，二胡有两根弦。keys（键）是钢琴的特征，buttons（按钮）和 lines（线）不能发声，均不符合二胡的特征。 2. 【句意解析】翻译：它只有两根弦，通常用用弓拉奏拉奏。考点/解析：played with a bow 意为"用琴弓拉奏"，二胡和小提琴都用弓演奏。stick（棍子）、pen（笔）、finger（手指）均不符合。 3. 【句意解析】翻译：然后她给我们看了琵琶，它是一种梨形的的、四根弦的乐器。考点/解析：pear-shaped 意为"梨形的"，琵琶的形状是梨形的。round（圆形的）、square（方形的）、flat（扁平的）均不符合琵琶的形状特征。 4. 【句意解析】翻译：琵琶能发出范围的声音——有时柔和温柔，有时响亮有力。考点/解析：a wide range of sounds 意为"广泛的声音范围"，a wide range of 是固定搭配，表示"大范围的"。pair（一对）、set（一套）、group（一组）虽可修饰名词，但不与 wide 搭配表示范围。此题考查 range 的固定搭配 a wide range of，难度较高。 5. 【句意解析】翻译：琵琶能发出广泛的声音——有时柔和柔和的，有时响亮有力。考点/解析：soft and gentle 意为"柔和温柔的"，与后文 loud and powerful 形成对比。harsh（刺耳的）、sharp（尖锐的）、cold（冷的）均与 soft 不并列且与语境相反。 6. 【句意解析】翻译：接着，王老师演奏了长笛，一种需要吹奏的细长乐器。考点/解析：a long, thin instrument that you blow into 描述的是长笛。drum（鼓）是打击乐器，guitar（吉他）是弹拨乐器，piano（钢琴）是键盘乐器，均不符合 blow into（吹奏）的特征。 7. 【句意解析】翻译：她给我们讲了谭盾的故事，谭盾是一位著名作曲家，他仅仅通过控制流动的速度就能创作出50多种声音。考点/解析：water flow 意为"水流"，the speed of water flow 意为"水流的速度"，是固定搭配。drop（水滴）、pool（水池）、river（河流）虽与水有关，但不能与 the speed of 搭配表示流动的速度。此题考查 flow 作为名词表示"流动"的用法，难度较高。 8. 【句意解析】翻译：音乐节结束时，王老师演奏了一首著名的中国民歌《茉莉花》，意思是“茉莉花”。考点/解析：Mo Li Hua 是"茉莉花"的拼音，Jasmine Flower 是其英文翻译。Rose（玫瑰）、Lily（百合）、Sunflower（向日葵）均不是"茉莉花"的英文。 三、首字母篇章填空 根据短文内容及首字母提示，在空白处填入适当的单词。 Passage 1: Learning Musical Instruments Daniel is a t________ boy who has loved music since he was five years old.
