解析:考查非谓语动词作状语。句子的主语“many passers-by”与动词“hear”是主动关系,因此用现在分词短语作时间状语。故填Hearing the moving live music in the square。
2.那个正在公共场合表演的街头音乐人属于一个三人乐队。
The street musician____________________________________________belongs to a band of three young people.
答案:performing in public
解析:考查非谓语动词作定语。句子的主语是“The street musician”,谓语是“belongs to”,因此空格处应为定语修饰主语。音乐人与“表演”是主动关系,用现在分词短语作后置定语。故填performing in public。
3.几十年来,街头音乐一直吸引着各行各业的普通民众。

6.对于普通人来说,能在街头免费欣赏高质量现场音乐是一件幸事。(it作形式主语)
________________________________________________to enjoy high‑quality live music for free on city streets.
答案:It is a blessing for ordinary people

7.许多街头音乐人把大部分精力投入到创作能够吸引广大听众的曲调中。
Many street musicians devote most of their energy_________________________that can appeal to large audiences.
答案:to creating tunes
解析:考查固定搭配。devote...to...是固定短语,意为“把……投入到……”,其中to是介词,后接动名词。根据句意,投入到“创作曲调”中,故填to creating tunes。

The band__________________________often gives performances across the city on weekends and fills the streets with music.
答案:consisting of five members/which consists of five members
解析:考查非谓语动词或定语从句作定语。句子的主语是“The band”,谓语是“gives”,因此空格处应为定语。乐队与“由……组成”是主动关系,可用现在分词短语“consisting of five members”作后置定语,或用定语从句“which consists of five members”。故填consisting of five members/which consists of five members。
9.漫步在城市街头,你会看见很多沉浸在现场音乐之中的路人。
______________________________________________,you can see lots of passers‑by absorbed in the live music.
答案:Walking/Wandering in the city streets
解析:考查非谓语动词作状语。句子的主语“you”与“漫步”是主动关系,因此用现在分词作伴随状语,位于句首首字母需大写。故填Walking/Wandering in the city streets。
10.正是这种音乐现象让陌生人不用语言也可以建立情感纽带。(强调句)
_____________________________________________enables strangers to build emotional bonds without words.
答案:It is this musical phenomenon that

七、阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Passage1
Busking,or street performing,has existed for hundreds of years across European and Asian cities.Street musicians do not limit their performances inside fancy concert halls with high‑priced seats.Instead,they share their music in open squares,underground stations and busy pedestrian streets for anyone who happens to pass by during their daily rush.
Unlike paid indoor concerts,street music is completely free for casual listeners.There is no strict rule requiring people to put money into an open instrument case.Passers‑by may stop for just ten seconds on their way to work,or they may stay for the whole performance and lose themselves in the beautiful melody.This great openness is the most attractive quality of street art.It successfully breaks the invisible barrier between professional artists and ordinary citizens who rarely get chances to enjoy live art.
Modern city governments hold mixed attitudes towards busking.Some large‑sized cities set up official performing areas and issue free public permits for street artists.These practical measures keep public order and avoid over‑crowding,while at the same time protecting the local cultural scene and encouraging young creative talents.Other cities carry stricter rules to control noise pollution in quiet residential areas and shopping districts.
Street music offers far more than pleasant sound.It creates short but precious moments of relaxation for people buried in heavy work and study.When tired strangers slow down to enjoy the same piece of music,they form a temporary community built on shared gentle feelings.That is the lasting magic power of music as a universal language,which needs no translation or complex explanation.
1.What is the most remarkable feature of busking?
A.It requires expensive tickets for visitors. B.It is open and accessible to the general public.
C.It is widely forbidden in most modern big cities. D.It can only be enjoyed by well‑educated people.
2.Why do some city governments provide official permits for street performers?
A.To completely stop all street art activities.
B.To balance public order and local cultural development.
C.To collect large amounts of money from young artists.
D.To train more world‑famous professional musicians.
3.What does the underlined word“barrier”in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A.close connection B.natural similarity
C.something that blocks communication D.a chance for public communication
4.What can we learn about street music from the passage?
A.It creates brief emotional closeness among strangers.
B.It will completely replace formal indoor concerts soon.
C.Every street musician can earn a large fortune easily.
D.All local governments fully support street performances.
答案:1.B 2.B 3.C 4.A
语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了街头音乐(Busking)作为一种公共艺术形式的特点、价值以及城市管理者对其的态度。
高考高频词汇:
busking n.街头表演 accessible adj.易接近的,可进入的 barrier n.障碍,屏障 issue v.发行,发布
permit n.许可证 temporary adj.临时的,暂时的 universal adj.普遍的,通用的 melody n.旋律,曲调
长难句分析:
句1:Instead,they share their music in open squares,underground stations and busy pedestrian streets for anyone who happens to pass by during their daily rush.
分析:主句为"they share their music in open squares,underground stations and busy pedestrian streets","for anyone"是介词短语作目的状语;"who happens to pass by during their daily rush"是定语从句,修饰先行词"anyone"。
译文:相反,他们在开放的广场、地下车站和繁忙的步行街上分享他们的音乐,供任何在通勤途中偶然路过的人聆听。
句2:It successfully breaks the invisible barrier between professional artists and ordinary citizens who rarely get chances to enjoy live art.
分析:主句为"It successfully breaks the invisible barrier between professional artists and ordinary citizens";"who rarely get chances to enjoy live art"是定语从句,修饰先行词"ordinary citizens"。
译文:它成功地打破了专业艺术家和普通市民之间无形的隔阂,而这些普通市民很少有机会欣赏现场艺术。
句3:When tired strangers slow down to enjoy the same piece of music,they form a temporary community built on shared gentle feelings.
分析:"When tired strangers slow down to enjoy the same piece of music"是时间状语从句;主句为"they form a temporary community";"built on shared gentle feelings"是过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰"community"。
译文:当疲惫的陌生人放慢脚步欣赏同一首音乐时,他们会形成一个基于共同温柔情感的临时社群。
题目详解:
1.细节理解题。根据第二段中“This great openness is the most attractive quality of street art.”(这种巨大的开放性是街头艺术最吸引人的特质。)可知,街头音乐最显著的特点是它对公众开放且易于接触。故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段中“These practical measures keep public order and avoid over-crowding,while at the same time protecting the local cultural scene and encouraging young creative talents.”(这些实际措施维持了公共秩序,避免了过度拥挤,同时也保护了当地的文化景象并鼓励了年轻的创意人才。)可知,一些城市政府发放官方许可是为了在维持公共秩序的同时,促进当地文化发展。故选B。
3.词义猜测题。根据第二段中“It successfully breaks the invisible barrier between professional artists and ordinary citizens...”(它成功地打破了专业艺术家和普通市民之间无形的……)可知,街头音乐打破了两者之间的“隔阂”或“障碍”。barrier意为“障碍”,与C选项“something that blocks communication”(阻碍交流的事物)意思相近。故选C。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“When tired strangers slow down to enjoy the same piece of music,they form a temporary community built on shared gentle feelings.”(当疲惫的陌生人放慢脚步欣赏同一首音乐时,他们会形成一个基于共同温柔情感的临时社群。)可知,街头音乐能在陌生人之间创造短暂的情感亲近感。故选A。
Passage2
Many people still hold the traditional belief that high‑quality artistic works can only be properly enjoyed inside expensive concert halls or grand museums.According to this opinion,art is a luxury for wealthy people who can afford costly tickets and long‑distance travel.However,devoted street artists hold a totally different opinion:beauty should be available to everyone in society,not only to a small group of people with rich resources.
The daily life of a street musician is full of unexpected challenges.They have no fixed working hours or stable monthly pay.Changeable bad weather,loud traffic noise and impatient passers‑by are common troubles they must face and deal with every day.Even with all these difficulties,a growing number of young artists still choose this special way of life.They sincerely hope to bring high‑quality art closer to ordinary daily public life and light up boring city moments.
Some critics argue that large‑scale street performances may cause noise and crowd‑control problems in busy downtown areas.Yet supporters point out that well‑managed street music greatly improves a city’s cultural atmosphere.It turns cold,empty stone squares into lively public spaces filled with warmth and human feelings.People do not need rich professional music knowledge to feel the inner power of a beautiful tune.True art touches people through sincere feelings rather than strict professional rules or difficult theories.
Street music reminds us of the original meaning of art—to share human feelings across different ages,jobs and social backgrounds.It serves as a simple and powerful proof that music is a universal language.No difficult translation,no expensive high‑tech equipment is needed at all.All you really need is an open heart to listen carefully.
5.What opinion do street artists hold about art?
A.Excellent art should be enjoyed by ordinary citizens.
B.Art should only appear in grand and expensive concert halls.
C.Creative art must create huge profits for its creators.
D.True art can exist without real human feelings.
6.What is the writer’s attitude towards properly managed street music?
A.Uncertain B.Completely negative C.Objective and supportive D.Doubtful and worried
7.Which of the following statements is true according to Paragraph 3?
A.Street music brings no trouble to modern cities at all.
B.Proper management helps street art bring benefits to cities.
C.Listeners must receive strict music training to enjoy street music.
D.Street performances are widely accepted without any disagreement.
8.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Art for Everyone:The Hidden Value of Street Music
B.Practical Guidance on Becoming a Wealthy Street Musician
C.Strict City Rules of Public Noise Control
D.The Long History of Western Classical Music
答案:5.A 6.C 7.B 8.A
语篇导读:本文是一篇议论文,探讨了街头音乐的价值。
高考高频词汇:
luxury n.奢侈品 available adj.可获得的,可找到的 challenge n.挑战 atmosphere n.气氛,氛围
professional adj.专业的 original adj.起初的,原始的 proof n.证明,证据 sincere adj.真诚的
长难句分析:
句:However,devoted street artists hold a totally different opinion:beauty should be available to everyone in society,not only to a small group of people with rich resources.
分析:冒号前为主句"devoted street artists hold a totally different opinion";冒号后是同位语从句,解释说明"opinion"的具体内容,其中"not only...but also..."的省略形式连接两个并列的介词短语"to everyone in society"和"to a small group of people with rich resources"。
译文:然而,执着的街头艺术家持有完全不同的观点:美应该让社会上的每个人都能享受到,而不仅仅是少数拥有丰富资源的人。
题目详解:
5.细节理解题。根据第一段中“...devoted street artists hold a totally different opinion:beauty should be available to everyone in society,not only to a small group of people with rich resources.”(……然而,执着的街头艺术家持有完全不同的观点:美应该让社会上的每个人都能享受到,而不仅仅是少数拥有丰富资源的人。)可知,街头艺术家认为优秀的艺术应该被普通市民所享受。故选A。
6.推理判断题。根据第三段中“Yet supporters point out that well-managed street music greatly improves a city’s cultural atmosphere.”(然而,支持者指出,管理良好的街头音乐极大地改善了城市的文化氛围。)以及全文对街头音乐积极作用的描述,可以看出作者对管理得当的街头音乐持客观且支持的态度。故选C。
7.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Yet supporters point out that well-managed street music greatly improves a city’s cultural atmosphere.”(然而,支持者指出,管理良好的街头音乐极大地改善了城市的文化氛围。)可知,妥善的管理有助于街头艺术为城市带来益处。故选B。
8.主旨大意题。文章主要讨论了街头音乐如何让艺术走向大众,打破了精英与平民的界限,并强调了其作为“通用语言”的价值。因此,“Art for Everyone:The Hidden Value of Street Music”(艺术为人人:街头音乐的隐藏价值)最能概括文章主旨。故选A。

分析:主句为"one of the musical classics in China,Butterfly Lovers,is a famous violin concerto";"As we all know"是插入语,引导非限制性定语从句;"which combines Chinese and Western musical elements"是非限制性定语从句,修饰"Butterfly Lovers";"composed by He Zhanhao and Chen Gang"是过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰"violin concerto"。
译文:众所周知,中国的音乐经典之一《梁祝》是一部融合了中西音乐元素的著名小提琴协奏曲,由何占豪和陈钢作曲。
题目详解:
1.考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:众所周知,中国的音乐经典之一《梁祝》是一部融合了中西音乐元素的著名小提琴协奏曲。which引导的非限制性定语从句修饰先行词Butterfly Lovers,为单数概念,且描述的是客观事实,应用一般现在时。故填combines。
2.考查非谓语动词。句意:……由何占豪和陈钢作曲。violin concerto与compose之间是被动关系,应用过去分词作后置定语。故填composed。
3.考查介词。句意:乐曲以轻快悦耳的音乐开始。begin with是固定搭配,意为“以……开始”。故填with。
4.考查连词。句意:……讲述了梁山伯和祝英台的初次相遇。Liang Shanbo和Zhu Yingtai是并列关系。故填and。
5.考查形容词。句意:然后是一个快速而欢快的部分。此处需要形容词修饰名词section,cheer的形容词形式是cheerful。故填cheerful。
6.考查非谓语动词。句意:……表现了他们三年快乐的校园时光。section与represent之间是主动关系,应用现在分词作后置定语。故填representing。
7.考查表语从句。句意:……那就是恋人们分离的时候。is后面是表语从句,从句中缺少时间状语,应用when引导。故填when。
8.考查副词。句意:最后,音乐转向更柔和的曲调。此处应用副词作状语,修饰整个句子,位于句首首字母需大写。故填Finally。
9.考查形容词比较级。句意:……音乐转向更柔和的曲调。much修饰形容词比较级,表示程度加深。故填softer。
10.考查名词复数。句意:……告诉我们这对恋人如何化作蝴蝶飞走了。butterfly是可数名词,此处指一对恋人化作的两只蝴蝶,应用复数形式。故填butterflies。

七、阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Passage1
Busking,or street performing,has existed for hundreds of years across European and Asian cities.Street musicians do not limit their performances inside fancy concert halls with high‑priced seats.Instead,they share their music in open squares,underground stations and busy pedestrian streets for anyone who happens to pass by during their daily rush.
Unlike paid indoor concerts,street music is completely free for casual listeners.There is no strict rule requiring people to put money into an open instrument case.Passers‑by may stop for just ten seconds on their way to work,or they may stay for the whole performance and lose themselves in the beautiful melody.This great openness is the most attractive quality of street art.It successfully breaks the invisible barrier between professional artists and ordinary citizens who rarely get chances to enjoy live art.
Modern city governments hold mixed attitudes towards busking.Some large‑sized cities set up official performing areas and issue free public permits for street artists.These practical measures keep public order and avoid over‑crowding,while at the same time protecting the local cultural scene and encouraging young creative talents.Other cities carry stricter rules to control noise pollution in quiet residential areas and shopping districts.
Street music offers far more than pleasant sound.It creates short but precious moments of relaxation for people buried in heavy work and study.When tired strangers slow down to enjoy the same piece of music,they form a temporary community built on shared gentle feelings.That is the lasting magic power of music as a universal language,which needs no translation or complex explanation.
1.What is the most remarkable feature of busking?
A.It requires expensive tickets for visitors. B.It is open and accessible to the general public.
C.It is widely forbidden in most modern big cities. D.It can only be enjoyed by well‑educated people.
2.Why do some city governments provide official permits for street performers?
A.To completely stop all street art activities.
B.To balance public order and local cultural development.
C.To collect large amounts of money from young artists.
D.To train more world‑famous professional musicians.
3.What does the underlined word“barrier”in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A.close connection B.natural similarity
C.something that blocks communication D.a chance for public communication
4.What can we learn about street music from the passage?
A.It creates brief emotional closeness among strangers.
B.It will completely replace formal indoor concerts soon.
C.Every street musician can earn a large fortune easily.
D.All local governments fully support street performances.
Passage2
Many people still hold the traditional belief that high‑quality artistic works can only be properly enjoyed inside expensive concert halls or grand museums.According to this opinion,art is a luxury for wealthy people who can afford costly tickets and long‑distance travel.However,devoted street artists hold a totally different opinion:beauty should be available to everyone in society,not only to a small group of people with rich resources.
The daily life of a street musician is full of unexpected challenges.They have no fixed working hours or stable monthly pay.Changeable bad weather,loud traffic noise and impatient passers‑by are common troubles they must face and deal with every day.Even with all these difficulties,a growing number of young artists still choose this special way of life.They sincerely hope to bring high‑quality art closer to ordinary daily public life and light up boring city moments.
Some critics argue that large‑scale street performances may cause noise and crowd‑control problems in busy downtown areas.Yet supporters point out that well‑managed street music greatly improves a city’s cultural atmosphere.It turns cold,empty stone squares into lively public spaces filled with warmth and human feelings.People do not need rich professional music knowledge to feel the inner power of a beautiful tune.True art touches people through sincere feelings rather than strict professional rules or difficult theories.
Street music reminds us of the original meaning of art—to share human feelings across different ages,jobs and social backgrounds.It serves as a simple and powerful proof that music is a universal language.No difficult translation,no expensive high‑tech equipment is needed at all.All you really need is an open heart to listen carefully.
5.What opinion do street artists hold about art?
A.Excellent art should be enjoyed by ordinary citizens.
B.Art should only appear in grand and expensive concert halls.
C.Creative art must create huge profits for its creators.
D.True art can exist without real human feelings.
6.What is the writer’s attitude towards properly managed street music?
A.Uncertain B.Completely negative C.Objective and supportive D.Doubtful and worried
7.Which of the following statements is true according to Paragraph 3?
A.Street music brings no trouble to modern cities at all.
B.Proper management helps street art bring benefits to cities.
C.Listeners must receive strict music training to enjoy street music.
D.Street performances are widely accepted without any disagreement.
8.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Art for Everyone:The Hidden Value of Street Music
B.Practical Guidance on Becoming a Wealthy Street Musician
C.Strict City Rules of Public Noise Control
D.The Long History of Western Classical Music
八、语法填空
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Passage1
As we all know,one of the musical classics in China,Butterfly Lovers,which 1 (combine)Chinese and Western musical elements,is a famous violin concerto 2 (compose)by He Zhanhao and Chen Gang.It begins
