48、析主旨大意题。文章开头总写电影和音乐的密切关系,音乐对电影影响重大,接着用大篇幅描写电影制作者怎样利用音乐来渲染气氛,第四段中的“dissonant(不协调的) tonesandnoises”以及第六段中的“infrasound”是提示词。所以答案是C。6TheunderlinedwordinParagraph2isclosestinmeaningto“”AwellpreparedBpartlyseparatedCchangedgraduallyDcloselylinked答案D解析词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“Inmovies,musichelpstoprovideasenseoftimean
49、dplace,conveyideasaboutthecharactersand,mostimportantly,drawemotionsoutoftheaudience.”可知音乐为电影提供时间和地点场景,传达人物感情,最重要是调动观众的情绪。由此判断intertwine是”紧密联系”的意思。7Toarousefearamongaudiences,filmsoundtracks.AcarryoddandloudmusicinsideBapplyinharmonioussoundsandnoisesCslowdownthespeedofmusicDuseinstrumentcombination
50、slikeviolinsandpianos答案B解析细节理解题。通过第四段的“Theuseofdissonant(不协调的) tonesandnoisesisanothertechniquethatheightentensions.Humanswillnaturallybecomeuneasywhenweheardissonantsounds.”可知,刺耳的噪音可以引起观众的恐惧。8Accordingtothearticle,infrasound.AisnoteasyfortheaudiencetonoticeBmakestheaudienceatpeaceChasthesameeffecto
51、naudiencesDisusedtomakeupforthelackofactioninmovies答案A解析细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句“Whilewemaynotbeabletohearitbecauseitsfrequencyisbelowthatrangeofthehumanear,infrasoundhasbeenproventocauseanxiety,shivering (颤抖) andevensorrow.”可知,次声波可能不会被听到,因为它的频率低于人的听力范围。.完形填空EverySaturdayandSundaymorning,myfatherwouldthrowhi
