B篇 In the world of music, few names are as legendary as Beethoven. Born in 1770 in Germany, Ludwig van Beethoven showed amazing musical talent from a very young age. His father, a musician himself, gave him a strict education, hoping to create a child prodigy like Mozart. Beethoven’s career is often divided into three periods. His early works were heavily influenced by the classical style of Mozart and Haydn. However, tragedy struck in his late twenties when he began to lose his hearing. Despite this, he didn’t continue to create. Instead, he entered his “middle” period, producing powerful and heroic symphonies like the Eroica. This period is a true journey of his spirit fighting against fate. His late period, after he became completely deaf, is perhaps the most surprising. Unable to hear the melody in the real world, he turned inward, composing music of deep reflection and complexity. His Ninth Symphony, which includes the famous “Ode to Joy,” is a masterpiece. It was a piece that praised the unity of all humankind. When it was first performed in 1824, Beethoven had to be turned around to see the audience’s thunderous applause because he could hear nothing. Many people describe this moment as one of the most touching in musical history. His music encourages millions to believe that the human spirit can overcome any difficulty. 1. What does the word “prodigy” in paragraph 1 most likely mean? A. A strict teacher. B. A talented young person. C. A famous musician. D. A kind father. 2. What was a major challenge in Beethoven’s life? A. His father was too strict. B. He lost his hearing. C. He refused to compose music. D. His music was not popular. 3.

What is the correct order of Beethoven’s musical periods? a. Late period (deaf, reflective music) b. Middle period (heroic music) c. Early period (classical style) A. a-b-c B. b-c-a C. c-b-a D. c-a-b 5. Why did Beethoven have to be turned around at the end of the Ninth Symphony’s first performance? A. He was too confident to face the audience. B. He was completely deaf and couldn’t hear the applause. C. He was busy checking out the instruments. D. He was describing the music to his friends. 6. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To describe Beethoven’s difficult childhood. B. To recommend a playlist of classical music. C. To introduce Beethoven’s life and his journey as a musician. D. To compare different styles of symphony. 二、书面表达 假设你是阳光中学九年级1班的学生李华，你校英语俱乐部正在开展主题为“My Favourite Artist”的英语征文活动，要求介绍你最喜欢的一位艺术家。你草拟了写作流程图，请根据下图用英语写一篇短文参加活动。 注意事项： 1.短文须根据流程图自拟，要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意； 2.提供的艺术类型名称非限定性内容，仅供参考； 3.词数在100个左右； 4.短文必须写在答题卡指定的位置上。 My Favourite Artist _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 一、完形填空 （来源:2024年天津市中考英语真题）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Some artists are often not famous during their lifetime.

That’s why it gets its name. 【答案】sunflower##unflower 【解析】句意：向日葵总是欢迎太阳。这就是它得名的原因。结合首字母提示和“welcomes the sun”，对应向日葵会随太阳转动的特性，sunflower“向日葵”；且sunflower由“sun(太阳)+flower(花)”构成，完全呼应“That’s why it gets its name.”。谓语动词welcomes是三单形式，主语填单数sunflower。 2.

C      【解析】本文主要介绍了伟大音乐家贝多芬的生平及其创作生涯的三个阶段，重点阐述了他如何在失聪的巨大痛苦中坚持创作，展现了其不屈不挠的斗争精神。 (1)题： 文中第一段提到：“…Beethoven showed amazing musical talent from a very young age.”，紧接着提到他的父亲希望能把他培养成一个像莫扎特那样的“child prodigy”。根据上下文关于“音乐天赋”和“莫扎特”的线索，可以推断出“prodigy”意为“神童”或“有天赋的年轻人”。 (2)题： 第二段提到：“…tragedy struck in his late twenties when he began to lose his hearing.”。文中明确指出，贝多芬在二十多岁时开始失去听力，这对他作为一名音乐家来说是人生中的重大挑战。 (3)题： 第三段提到：“His Ninth Symphony…was a piece that praised the unity of all humankind.”。这直接说明了赞美人类团结的是第九交响曲。 (4)题： 根据文中按时间发展的叙述逻辑，文章第二段首先提到：“His early works were heavily influenced by the classical style…”。随后提到因失聪而进入下一阶段：“Instead, he entered his ‘middle’ period…”。最后在第三段开头提到：“His late period, after he became completely deaf…”。依据文中对三个时期的先后描写，其音乐生涯的发展顺序应为c-b-a。 (5)题： 第三段提到：“Beethoven had to be turned around to see the audience’s thunderous applause because he could hear nothing.”。文中明确解释了需要让他转过身的原因是他已经完全失聪，听不见台下雷鸣般的掌声。 (6)题： 全文从贝多芬的出生、童年天赋写起，详细叙述了其职业生涯的三个重要时期，以及他战胜失聪困境的历程。选项C“介绍贝多芬的生平及其音乐旅程”高度概括了文章的中心思想。 二、书面表达 假设你是阳光中学九年级1班的学生李华，你校英语俱乐部正在开展主题为“My Favourite Artist”的英语征文活动，要求介绍你最喜欢的一位艺术家。你草拟了写作流程图，请根据下图用英语写一篇短文参加活动。 注意事项： 1.短文须根据流程图自拟，要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意； 2.提供的艺术类型名称非限定性内容，仅供参考； 3.词数在100个左右； 4.短文必须写在答题卡指定的位置上。 My Favourite Artist _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文： My Favourite Artist My name is Li Hua. I’m a 15-year-old student from Class 1, Grade 9 at Sunshine Middle School. Among all art forms, I love music most, as it cheers me up when I’m feeling sad and helps me relax after a hard day’s study. My favourite artist is Jay Chou, a talented singer and songwriter from Taiwan. I love his music because he successfully joins traditional Chinese culture with modern pop, making his songs special and charming. The words in his songs are beautiful and meaningful, and listening to his music always makes me proud of Chinese culture. 【解析】写作步骤 第一步：[审题立意]    确定文体：介绍性记叙文，以一般现在时为主 明确要点：自我介绍（身份）、喜爱的艺术形式及原因、最喜欢的艺术家及理由 确定人称：第一人称（I/My） 注意事项：词数约 100 词，语句通顺，符合题意 [第二步：构思布局] 三段式结构： 开头段：自我介绍（姓名、年龄、班级、学校） 主体段：点明最喜爱的艺术形式及原因 结尾段：介绍最喜欢的艺术家，说明喜爱的具体理由，总结感受，升华主题 [第三步：要点展开] 要点一：自我介绍与艺术偏好 身份：I’m Li Hua, a student from Class 1, Grade 9 at Sunshine Middle School. 艺术形式选择：music/painting/dance/… 喜爱原因：cheers me up/makes me calm/helps me express myself/ … 要点二：最喜欢的艺术家 艺术家选择：Jay Chou/Xu Beihong/Yang Liping/… 身份介绍：a talented singer/painter/dancer from… 艺术特色：mixes traditional culture with modern style/uses bright colors/has graceful movements /… 个人影响：makes me proud of Chinese culture/teaches me to be creative/encourages me to follow my dream/… 一、完形填空 （来源:2024年天津市中考英语真题）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Some artists are often not famous during their lifetime.
