As the soft melody 21______ the hall, I found myself thinking of my grandmother, who used to sing lullabies to me when I was little. I felt tears welling up in my eyes.

Every evening after dinner, he would sit on the wooden chair in the living room, take the pear-shaped instrument from its cloth case, and begin to play. The strings sang under his fingers, producing sounds that were sometimes cheerful, sometimes soft and peaceful. Grandpa grew up in a small village. When he was a boy, a travelling musician visited the village once a year and played pipa stories for the villagers. Young grandpa was so attracted by the music that he would sit in the front row, not daring to move. At the age of 12, he saved enough pocket money from helping on the farm to buy an old pipa, and he taught himself to play by listening and copying. Years later, Grandpa moved to the city to live with our family. He brought his pipa with him, but he played less often. He said that the busy city life made him feel he didn’t have the right mood for it. One weekend, I sat beside him and asked him to teach me a little. He was surprised at first, but then a gentle smile spread across his face. After three months of lessons, I can now play a short folk song. Last Sunday, I played it for Grandpa while he was reading the newspaper. After I finished, he closed his eyes for a moment and said, “That sounds just like the old days.” I realized that Grandpa’s pipa is not just an instrument. It carries the memories of his youth, the stories of the village, and a peace that life in the city cannot take away. 1. What is true about Grandpa’s first pipa? A. He received it as a gift from a travelling musician. B. He bought it with money earned from farm work. C. He found it in an old wooden case in the village. D. He borrowed it from a music teacher every weekend. 【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。由第二段”he saved enough pocket money from helping on the farm to buy an old pipa”可知，是用帮忙农场干活攒下的零用钱买的。 1. Why did Grandpa play the pipa less often after moving to the city? A. He was too busy working in the city to find time for it. B. He thought that city people did not like traditional instruments. C. The noisy city made it hard for him to feel in the right mood. D. The strings on his old pipa were broken and could not be repaired. 【答案】C 【解析】细节理解题。由第三段”the busy city life made him feel he didn’t have the right mood for it”可知，城市的快节奏让他没心情弹。 1. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. The writer has become a skilled pipa player after just one month. B. The writer’s music made Grandpa recall memories of the past. C. Grandpa finally decided to teach the writer only for money. D. Grandpa lost all interest in playing the pipa after moving. 【答案】B 【解析】推理判断题。由最后两段”After I finished, he closed his eyes…That sounds just like the old days.”可知作者的演奏勾起了爷爷对往昔岁月的回忆。 1. The writer wrote the passage mainly to ______. A. explain how to teach yourself a traditional instrument B. compare city life with village life in China C. show how the pipa connects three generations in the family D. tell a personal story about the importance of an instrument 【答案】D 【解析】主旨大意题。文章围绕爷爷的琵琶讲述个人故事，说明乐器承载的情感与记忆。 C（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） Why Music Matters in Education Recently, many schools around the world have been cutting music classes to save money and make more time for “important” subjects like maths and science. However, researchers have warned that removing music from education may be a serious mistake, as it offers benefits that other subjects cannot match. First of all, learning music improves brain development. According to a study published in Nature Neuroscience, children who received two years of music training scored better in listening skills and memory tests than those who did not. Playing an instrument requires the brain to process sounds, read signs, and coordinate finger movements at the same time, which strengthens the connections between different brain areas. In addition, music helps with emotional well-being. Schools that report high stress among students often see improvement after they bring back daily music time. A 10-minute listening break with relaxing classical pieces can lower anxiety and improve the mood of teenagers before exams. Music also gives students a channel to express feelings that are difficult to put into words. Another advantage is that music classes build teamwork and self-confidence. In a band or a choir, every member has to listen to others and play or sing at the right moment. Even the shyest students can gradually build confidence as they practise and receive applause for their performances. Many people think that music is useful only for students who want to become musicians, but the facts tell a different story. In fact, students who studied music in high school score an average of 100 points higher on university entrance exams than those who did not. Music may not directly teach a formula or a grammar rule, but it trains the mind in a way that helps students do better in every subject. Schools should think twice before taking music classes away. 1. Why are some schools cutting music classes according to Paragraph 1? A. They believe music is too expensive to teach. B. There are not enough qualified music teachers. C. Students show little interest in learning instruments. D. They want more time for subjects like maths and science. 【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。由第一段”cutting music classes to save money and make more time for ‘important’ subjects like maths and science”可知。 1. According to Paragraph 2, what makes playing an instrument good for the brain? A. It requires the brain to do several tasks at the same time. B. It lets students relax while they are doing their homework. C. It helps students memorize song lyrics in foreign languages. D. It allows children to become professional musicians early. 【答案】A 【解析】细节理解题。由第二段”requires the brain to process sounds, read signs, and coordinate…at the same time”可知，乐器演奏要求大脑同时处理多个任务。 1. The writer probably agrees that ______. A. music classes are only useful for future musicians B. 10-minute music breaks after exams lower anxiety C. teamwork in a band helps shy students become more confident D. music raises exam scores by teaching grammar rules directly 【答案】C 【解析】细节理解题。由第四段”Even the shyest students can gradually build confidence as they practise and receive applause”可知，乐队团队合作帮助害羞学生建立自信。A与第五段矛盾；B中”after exams”错误，应该是before exams；D中”teaching grammar rules directly”错误。 1. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Long History of Music in Schools B. How Music Training Changes the Listening Skills of Children C. Why Schools Should Not Remove Music from Education D. A Research on University Entrance Exam Scores 【答案】C 【解析】主旨大意题。全文论述学校不该把音乐课砍掉，结尾再次点明。 D（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） Is There Such a Thing as “Bad” Music? We all have our favourite songs, and we all have songs we cannot stand. Friends often argue about whether a piece of music is good or bad. But is there really an objective way to judge the quality of music? Or is it all just a matter of personal taste? For hundreds of years, people believed that there was a standard for “good” music. In the European tradition, “serious” or “classical” music was clearly divided from “popular” songs. People were taught that symphonies and operas were superior in quality, while folk tunes and street songs were considered of lower value. This way of thinking lasted well into the 20th century. Today, however, most music critics reject the old, strict division. They argue that quality can be found in any style. A well-made pop song can be as powerful as a classical symphony, and a traditional folk song like “Jasmine Flower” can carry as much emotion as an expensive opera performance. Good music, they say, is simply music that communicates successfully with its audience, no matter what form it takes. At the same time, we cannot say that all music has equal quality. A song that copies the melody of another without creativity, or a performance in which the singer sings out of tune, can reasonably be called “bad”. Good music usually has something original, whether it is the combination of sounds, the meaning of the words, or the feeling behind the performance. It rewards repeated listens and still feels fresh years later. Perhaps the answer is that taste and quality are two separate things. You might not like jazz personally, but you can still recognize that a well-performed jazz piece is well made. And even if you love a certain pop song, you might notice that its words are shallow and its tune has been copied many times before. Music, like food, has both personal preference and craft behind it. The best pieces are those that are both enjoyable to you and skillfully made by the artists. 1. According to Paragraph 2, people in Europe used to think that ______. A. symphonies were of higher quality than street songs B. classical music and folk music were equally valuable C. everyone should learn an instrument in childhood D. popular music showed greater originality 【答案】A 【解析】细节理解题。由第二段”symphonies and operas were superior in quality, while folk tunes and street songs were considered of lower value”可知。 1. What do most modern critics believe according to the passage? A. Strict divisions between styles help people judge quality better. B. Only classical and opera can express true emotion. C. Pop songs can never be as powerful as symphonies. D. Good music can be found inside any style if it communicates well. 【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。由第三段”Good music, they say, is simply music that communicates successfully with its audience, no matter what form it takes”可知。 1. Which of the following would the writer most probably call “bad” music? A. A folk song passed down for hundreds of years B. A live jazz performance with many improvisations C. A pop song that borrows the same melody from five old hits D. A classical piece that most young people find boring 【答案】C 【解析】推理判断题。由第四段”A song that copies the melody of another without creativity…can reasonably be called ‘bad’“可推知，一首复制了五首老歌旋律的流行曲最可能被认为是”差”音乐。 1. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. Personal taste and quality are different, and we can separate them. B. The best way to judge music is to ask what experts think. C. People who do not like jazz usually cannot understand quality music. D. Food and music are completely different in how we judge them. 【答案】A 【解析】段落大意题。最后一段首句”taste and quality are two separate things”即为段落主题。 四、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 用括号内所给单词的正确形式填空。 1.

I love it because it feels both beautiful and peaceful, and it always makes me feel calm and happy when I am tired or stressed. Common instruments in classical music include the piano, the violin and the flute. Two of my favourite composers are Beethoven and Mozart. Among their works, my favourite piece is Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata, because its gentle melody always brings me peace and comfort. For me, music is much more than just pleasant sounds. It has the power to speak directly to our hearts, even when there are no words. No matter what mood I am in, classical music always gives me comfort and strength. I believe everyone should take the time to discover at least one piece that truly speaks to them. 评分标准 · 第五档（很好）：17–20分　覆盖全部要点，语言流畅，句式多样（宾语从句、原因状语从句、定语从句等）；对”音乐力量”的拓展观点合理有深度 · 第四档（好）：13–16分　覆盖大部分要点，语言较通顺；有少量语法错误但不影响理解 · 第三档（适当）：9–12分　覆盖部分要点，语言基本通顺；语法错误较多 · 第二档（较差）：5–8分　只覆盖少数要点；语言不够通顺，错误较多 · 第一档（差）：0–4分　内容无关或严重缺失；语言难以理解 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 译林2026版九年级上册 Unit 5 单元测试卷 考试时间：90分钟　满分：120分 一、单项选择（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 1. —It is reported that a famous Chinese ______ will hold a concert at the National Stadium next month. —Wow, that must be a wonderful show.

This all changed last month 18______ our music teacher took us to a special concert. It was not in a grand hall, 19______ in the school hall, and it was specially prepared for teenagers.

As the soft melody 21______ the hall, I found myself thinking of my grandmother, who used to sing lullabies to me when I was little. I felt tears welling up in my eyes. I had never 22______ that music could reach a place so deep inside my heart. After the concert, our teacher asked us to share our feelings.

You just need to give it a 25______.” Since then, I have 26______ out several classical playlists online. At first, I only listened when I was doing homework, 27______ the soft background would help me focus. Gradually, I found that certain pieces could 28______ my mood when I was stressed or tired. I even started watching documentaries about great composers like Mozart and Beethoven. Now I know that music is not a one-size-fits-all 29______.

Every evening after dinner, he would sit on the wooden chair in the living room, take the pear-shaped instrument from its cloth case, and begin to play. The strings sang under his fingers, producing sounds that were sometimes cheerful, sometimes soft and peaceful. Grandpa grew up in a small village. When he was a boy, a travelling musician visited the village once a year and played pipa stories for the villagers. Young grandpa was so attracted by the music that he would sit in the front row, not daring to move. At the age of 12, he saved enough pocket money from helping on the farm to buy an old pipa, and he taught himself to play by listening and copying. Years later, Grandpa moved to the city to live with our family. He brought his pipa with him, but he played less often. He said that the busy city life made him feel he didn’t have the right mood for it. One weekend, I sat beside him and asked him to teach me a little. He was surprised at first, but then a gentle smile spread across his face. After three months of lessons, I can now play a short folk song. Last Sunday, I played it for Grandpa while he was reading the newspaper. After I finished, he closed his eyes for a moment and said, “That sounds just like the old days.” I realized that Grandpa’s pipa is not just an instrument. It carries the memories of his youth, the stories of the village, and a peace that life in the city cannot take away. 1. What is true about Grandpa’s first pipa? A. He received it as a gift from a travelling musician. B. He bought it with money earned from farm work. C. He found it in an old wooden case in the village. D. He borrowed it from a music teacher every weekend. 1. Why did Grandpa play the pipa less often after moving to the city? A. He was too busy working in the city to find time for it. B. He thought that city people did not like traditional instruments. C. The noisy city made it hard for him to feel in the right mood. D. The strings on his old pipa were broken and could not be repaired. 1. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. The writer has become a skilled pipa player after just one month. B. The writer’s music made Grandpa recall memories of the past. C. Grandpa finally decided to teach the writer only for money. D. Grandpa lost all interest in playing the pipa after moving. 1. The writer wrote the passage mainly to ______. A. explain how to teach yourself a traditional instrument B. compare city life with village life in China C. show how the pipa connects three generations in the family D. tell a personal story about the importance of an instrument C（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） Why Music Matters in Education Recently, many schools around the world have been cutting music classes to save money and make more time for “important” subjects like maths and science. However, researchers have warned that removing music from education may be a serious mistake, as it offers benefits that other subjects cannot match. First of all, learning music improves brain development. According to a study published in Nature Neuroscience, children who received two years of music training scored better in listening skills and memory tests than those who did not. Playing an instrument requires the brain to process sounds, read signs, and coordinate finger movements at the same time, which strengthens the connections between different brain areas. In addition, music helps with emotional well-being. Schools that report high stress among students often see improvement after they bring back daily music time. A 10-minute listening break with relaxing classical pieces can lower anxiety and improve the mood of teenagers before exams. Music also gives students a channel to express feelings that are difficult to put into words. Another advantage is that music classes build teamwork and self-confidence. In a band or a choir, every member has to listen to others and play or sing at the right moment. Even the shyest students can gradually build confidence as they practise and receive applause for their performances. Many people think that music is useful only for students who want to become musicians, but the facts tell a different story. In fact, students who studied music in high school score an average of 100 points higher on university entrance exams than those who did not. Music may not directly teach a formula or a grammar rule, but it trains the mind in a way that helps students do better in every subject. Schools should think twice before taking music classes away. 1. Why are some schools cutting music classes according to Paragraph 1? A. They believe music is too expensive to teach. B. There are not enough qualified music teachers. C. Students show little interest in learning instruments. D. They want more time for subjects like maths and science. 1. According to Paragraph 2, what makes playing an instrument good for the brain? A. It requires the brain to do several tasks at the same time. B. It lets students relax while they are doing their homework. C. It helps students memorize song lyrics in foreign languages. D. It allows children to become professional musicians early. 1. The writer probably agrees that ______. A. music classes are only useful for future musicians B. 10-minute music breaks after exams lower anxiety C. teamwork in a band helps shy students become more confident D. music raises exam scores by teaching grammar rules directly 1. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Long History of Music in Schools B. How Music Training Changes the Listening Skills of Children C. Why Schools Should Not Remove Music from Education D. A Research on University Entrance Exam Scores D（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） Is There Such a Thing as “Bad” Music? We all have our favourite songs, and we all have songs we cannot stand. Friends often argue about whether a piece of music is good or bad. But is there really an objective way to judge the quality of music? Or is it all just a matter of personal taste? For hundreds of years, people believed that there was a standard for “good” music. In the European tradition, “serious” or “classical” music was clearly divided from “popular” songs. People were taught that symphonies and operas were superior in quality, while folk tunes and street songs were considered of lower value. This way of thinking lasted well into the 20th century. Today, however, most music critics reject the old, strict division. They argue that quality can be found in any style. A well-made pop song can be as powerful as a classical symphony, and a traditional folk song like “Jasmine Flower” can carry as much emotion as an expensive opera performance. Good music, they say, is simply music that communicates successfully with its audience, no matter what form it takes. At the same time, we cannot say that all music has equal quality. A song that copies the melody of another without creativity, or a performance in which the singer sings out of tune, can reasonably be called “bad”. Good music usually has something original, whether it is the combination of sounds, the meaning of the words, or the feeling behind the performance. It rewards repeated listens and still feels fresh years later. Perhaps the answer is that taste and quality are two separate things. You might not like jazz personally, but you can still recognize that a well-performed jazz piece is well made. And even if you love a certain pop song, you might notice that its words are shallow and its tune has been copied many times before. Music, like food, has both personal preference and craft behind it. The best pieces are those that are both enjoyable to you and skillfully made by the artists. 1. According to Paragraph 2, people in Europe used to think that ______. A. symphonies were of higher quality than street songs B. classical music and folk music were equally valuable C. everyone should learn an instrument in childhood D. popular music showed greater originality 1. What do most modern critics believe according to the passage? A. Strict divisions between styles help people judge quality better. B. Only classical and opera can express true emotion. C. Pop songs can never be as powerful as symphonies. D. Good music can be found inside any style if it communicates well. 1. Which of the following would the writer most probably call “bad” music? A. A folk song passed down for hundreds of years B. A live jazz performance with many improvisations C. A pop song that borrows the same melody from five old hits D. A classical piece that most young people find boring 1. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. Personal taste and quality are different, and we can separate them. B. The best way to judge music is to ask what experts think. C. People who do not like jazz usually cannot understand quality music. D. Food and music are completely different in how we judge them. 四、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 用括号内所给单词的正确形式填空。 1.
