11、，被称之为amusic，这些人听力上没有任何问题，只是不喜欢听音乐，也无法欣赏音乐。很多人在之前都因此而苦恼，现在有了科学的解释，他们可以摆脱那种尴尬、不自在的处境了。1Which of the following is TRUE of amusics?AListening to music is far from enjoyable for them.BThey love places where they are likely to hear music.CThey can easily tell two different songs apart.DTheir situation is
12、well understood by musicians.【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段“For some people，music is no fun at all.”可知，A项正确，意为“对于某些人来说，听音乐并不是开心的事情”和A项的听音乐对他们来说远非是愉快的相同。因此，B项也是错误的，根据第一段的“People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize or reproduce musical notes (音调)Amusic people often cannot tell the difference bet

14、lems understanding ordinary speech.”又讲到了这些不爱听音乐的人在理解其他非音乐的声音或者演讲的时候是没有问题的，目的是为了强调他们是正常的，没有什么缺陷的，因此defective hearing指的是C项的a hearing problem，即听觉有问题。句意“他们之间的区别是很复杂的，但并不包括听觉有问题这种情况”。【答案】C3In the last paragraph，Margaret expressed her wish that _Aher problem with music had been diagnosed earlierBshe were

17、amusics.【解析】主旨大意题。全文主要讲述的是不喜爱听音乐的一类人，被称之为amusic，他们之前都没有得到统一的诊断或者认识，直到现在。因此选择B项，Some peoples inability to enjoy music 意为，一些人无法欣赏音乐。A项错在strange behaviors，文章只是说他们不喜欢有音乐的地方，并没有讲到他们其他的一些奇怪的举动。C项Musical talent and brain structure音乐天赋和大脑构造，明显与文章大意不符。D项中错在treatment，意为治疗，文章并没有讲到如何帮助这些人治疗他们的问题。因此排除D项。【答案】BBWh
