阅读下列短文，掌握其大意，然后从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。

A

Samuel Osmond is a 19­year­old law student from Cornwall, England. He never studied the piano. However, he can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them. He learns a piece of music by listening to it in parts. Then he thinks about the notes in his head. Two years ago, he played his first piece Moonlight Sonata(奏鸣曲)by Beethoven. He surprised everyone around him.

Amazed that he remembered this long and difficult piece of music and played it perfectly, his teachers say Samuel is unbelievable. They say his ability is very rare, but Samuel doesn't even realize that what he can do is special. Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents, but music teachers told him he should study music instead. Now, he studies law and music.

Samuel can't understand why everyone is so surprised. “I grew up with music. My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar. About two years ago, I suddenly decided to start playing the piano, without being able to read music and without having any lessons. It comes easily to me—I hear the notes and can bear them in mind—each and every note，” says Samuel.

Recently, Samuel performed a piece during a special event at his college. The piece had more than a thousand notes. The audience was impressed by his amazing performance. He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can't play it. Samuel says confidently，“It's all about super memory—I guess I have that gift.”

However, Samuel's ability to remember things doesn't stop with music. His family says that even when he was a young boy, Samuel heard someone read a story, and then he could retell the story word for word.

Samuel is still only a teenager. He doesn't know what he wants to do in the future. For now, he is just happy to play beautiful music and continue his studies. 6. What is special about Samuel Osmond?

A. He has a gift for writing music.

B. He can write down the note he hears. C. He is a top student at the law school. D. He can play the musical piece he hears.

7. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?

A. Samuel chose law against the wish of his parents. B. Samuel planned to be a lawyer rather than a musician. C. Samuel thinks of himself as a man of great musical ability. D. Samuel studies law and music on the advice of his teachers. 8. Everyone around Samuel was surprised because he ________．

A. received a good early education in music B. played the guitar and the piano perfectly C. could play the piano without reading music D. could play the guitar better than his father 9. What can we infer about Samuel in Paragraph 4?

A. He became famous during a special event at his college. B. He is proud of his ability to remember things accurately. C. He plays the piano better than many professional pianists. D. He impressed the audience by playing all the musical pieces. 10. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

A. The qualities of a musician B. The story of a musical talent

C. The importance of early education

D. The relationship between memory and music

B

It was a cold winter day. A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth(收费站). “I'm paying for myself, and for the six cars behind me，” she said with a smile, handing over seven tickets. One after another, the next six drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed, “Some lady up ahead already paid your fare.”

It turned out that the woman, Natalie Smith, had read something on a friend's refrigerator: “Practise random kindness and senseless acts of beauty.” The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down.

Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home. When it stayed on her mind for days, she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down. “I thought it was beautiful，” she said, explaining why she'd taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters, “like a message from above.” Her husband, Frank, liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students, one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson, a local news reporter. Alice put it in the newspaper, admitting that though she liked it, she didn't know where it came from or what it really meant.

Two days later, Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Marin. It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days.

“Here's the idea，” Anne says. “Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly.” Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby schools, leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady. Anne says, “Kindness_can_build_on_itself_as_much_as_violence_can.”

The acts of random kindness spread. If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later. Like all great events, kindness begins slowly, with every single act. Let it be yours! 11. Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her?

A. She knew the car drivers well. B. She wanted to show kindness. C. She hoped to please others. D. She had seven tickets.

12. Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she ________.

A. thought it was beautifully written B. wanted to know what it really meant C. decided to write it on a warehouse wall

D. wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom 13. Who came up with the phrase according to the passage?

A. Judy Foreman. B. Natalie Smith. C. Alice Johnson. D. Anne Herbert.

14. Which of the following statements is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence above?

A. Kindness and violence can change the world. B. Kindness and violence can affect one's behaviour. C. Kindness and violence can reproduce themselves. D. Kindness and violence can shape one's character. 15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. People should practise random kindness to those in need. B. People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others. C. People should practise random kindness to strangers they meet. D. People who receive kindness are likely to pay it back to the giver.

C

Throughout the history of the arts，the nature of creativity has remained constant to artists. No matter what objects they select，artists are to bring forth new forces and forms that cause change—to find poetry where no one has ever seen or experienced it before. Landscape（风景）is another unchanging element of art. It can be found from ancient times through the 17th-century Dutch painters to the 19th-century romanticists and impressionists. In the 1970s Alfred Leslie，one of the new American realists，continued this practice，Leslie sought out the same place where Thomas Cole, a romanticist, had produced paintings of the same scene a century and a half before. Unlike Cole who insists on a feeling of loneliness and the idea of finding peace in nature，Ledge pains what he actually sees. In his paintings，there is no particular change in motion，and he includes ordinary things like the highway in the background. He also takes advantage of the latest developments of color photography（摄影术）to help both the eye and the memory when he improves his painting back in his workroom.

Besides，all art begs the age-old question：What is real？Each generation of artists has shown their understanding of reality in one form or another. The impressionists saw reality in brief emotional effects，the realists in everyday subjects and in forest scenes，and the Cro-Magnon cave people in their naturalistic drawings of the animals in the ancient forests. To sum up. understanding reality is a necessary struggle for Artists of all periods.

Over thousands of years the function of the arts has remained relatively constant. Past or present，Eastern or Western，the arts are a basic part of our immediate experience. Many and different are the faces of art，and together they express the basic need and hope of human beings. 16. The underlined word “poetry” most probably means______________.

A. an object for artistic creation B. a collection of poems C. an unusual quality D. a natural scene 17. Leslie’s paintings are extraordinary because______________.

A. they are close in style to works in ancient times B. they look like works by 19th-cenary painters C. they draw attention to common things in life D. they depend heavily on color photography

18. What is the author’s opinion of artistic really？______________.

A. It will not be found in future works of art. B. It does not have a long-lasting standard. C. It is expressed in a fixed artistic form. D. It is lacking in modern works of art. 19. What does the author suggest about the arts in the last paragraph？

A. They express people’s curiosity about the past.

B. They make people interested in everyday experience. C. They are considered important for variety in form. D. They are regarded as a mirror of the human situation. 20. Which of the following is the main topic of the passage？

A. History of the arts. B. Basic questions of the arts. C. New developments in the arts. D. Use of modern technology in the arts.

II.阅读理解 （共15小题，每小题2分，满分40分）

A

这是一篇人物传记。文章主要讲述了英国19岁的音乐天才Samuel Osmond的故事。 6. D 细节理解题。根据第一段的“„he can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them.”可知Samuel Osmond的天赋在于他可以弹出他听到的音乐片段。故选D。

7. B 推理判断题。根据第二段的“Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents„”可知Samuel在父母的期待下打算成为律师，故选B。由“„but music teachers told him he should study music instead.”可知，老师只是建议他学习音乐而放弃法律，故D项是错误的。

8. C 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Samuel can't understand why everyone is so surprised.”和“‘„without being able to read music and without having any lessons. It comes easily to me„’”可知他虽然没有接受过专业的音乐训练，但是他却能非常熟练地弹钢琴，大家都为此感到很惊讶。故选C。

9. B 推理判断题。根据第四段的“Samuel says confidently，‘It's all about super memory—I guess I have that gift.’”可知Samuel对他超群的记忆力很自信，即很自豪。故选B。根据第四段的“He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can't play it.”可知他只是在一个较难的乐章方面超越了一些专业钢琴家，并不是总体上超越了他们，故C项犯了以偏概全的错误。

10. B 主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了英国19岁的音乐天才Samuel Osmond的故事。故选B。

B

这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了在收费站，一位女士给六位司机付款的善举。因为她在朋友家里的冰箱上看到了一句关于善举的美句，她认为非常有意义，促使她去帮助别人。并且此美句激发了更多的人来做善事，把爱心传递下去。

11. B 推理判断题。根据第二段的“Natalie Smith, had read something on a friend's refrigerator: ‘Practise random kindness and senseless acts of beauty.’ The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down.”可知Natalie因为被一句话所感动，想要传递爱心。故选B。

12. A 细节理解题。根据第三段的“‘I thought it was beautiful，’she said„”可知Judy Foreman是由于被此美句所打动，所以将它记下来。故选A。

13. D 细节理解题。根据第四段的“„Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Marin. It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days.”可知这句话的原创者是Anne Herbert。故选D。

14. C 句意猜测题。画线句子中的build on和选项中的单词reproduce属于同义转换，意为“扩大，扩展”。故选C。

15. B 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later.”可知，当人们受到别人的帮助时，很有可能会将这样的善意以各种形式传递给其他人。故选B。D选项只表示接受帮助的人会将善意回报给帮助他的人，与原文意思不符。

C

答案 16. C 17. C 18. B 19. D 20. B

16. 解析:这是一道词义猜测题。从第一段“to find poetry where no one has ever seen or experienced it before”可知艺术家力图创造一种从来没人看到或者经历过的意境。既然是没有人看到过或者经历过,那么应该是一种不平常的东西。

17. 解析:这是一道推断题。根据第二段“In his paintings,there is no particular change in emotion,and he includes ordinary things like the highway in the background.”可以推断出Leslie的画表现的都是平时常见的事物。 18. 解析:这是一道推断题。根据第三段“Each generations of artists has shown their

5

understanding of reality in one form or another.”可以推断出每一代艺术家对于现实的理解和表现都是不同的,也就是没有一个永恒的标准。

19. 解析:这是一道归纳题。根据最后一段“Many and different are the faces of art,and together they express the basic need and hope of human beings.”可知虽然艺术的表现形式不同,但都是表达了人民的需要和希望。也就是说艺术反映了当时人的生存状态。

20. 解析:这是一道主旨题。本文通过对于不同时期艺术家的比较,作者分析了艺术的一个共同问题:“什么是真实”,结论是虽然不同时期和地域艺术的表现形式不同,但都反映了当时人的生存状态。

态度仍然恭敬。

25. A 乞丐依旧保持着好的心态，没有生气或者失望。 26. B 根据前文乞丐保持着好心态可知，他是个聪明人。

27. B 根据后文作者为乞丐买食物的举动，可知作者是边吃边想乞丐是否饥饿。 28. C 根据此段的第一句话，可知我在用餐，此时是“用餐完毕”。

29. A 此句含义为“尽管我不知道他是否还在附近，但我仍然尽力做了。” 30. D 点餐应该是在柜台。

31. B 根据后文的warm him up和前文的热巧克力可推测天气很冷。 32. A 根据前文，我点了汉堡和热巧克力，服务员先给了我热巧克力，故我还在等汉堡。 33. C 根据下文描述，流浪汉连声道谢，表现得很绅士。

V.书面表达（共1题，满分15分） 参考范文： According to the survey made by the Health Magazine, compared with the past, people are in poorer health. One of the main reasons is that people are living a busy life without taking enough exercise and suffer lots of stress. Besides, most of them have to stay up late at night with so little time to rest, making their lives quite irregular. Worse still, a number of these people have got into the habit of smoking and drinking too much. To change this, they should form a good living habit by taking more physical exercise and keeping away from cigarettes and alcohol.
