46、or listening to the record. But music plays an important part in everyones life, whether he realizes it or not. Try to imagine, for example, what films or TV plays would be like without music. Would the feelings, the moving plots (情节), and the greatest interests, be as exciting or dramatic (富有戏剧性的)?
47、 Im not sure about it. Now, we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning the kind of music we hear in the concert hall.

Most of the boy students 18. to be reading 19. by chance 20. above all 第二部分 英语知识运用第一节 单项填空2125 CDABC 2630 ACBAB 3135 DBDBA重点解析:22. she needed是定语从句,修饰everything,everything与选项在逻辑上有被动关系,故选D,with everything boug
55、ht是with的复合结构。全句意思是:买完了她需要的一切后,妈妈离开了市场。23. 根据题意判断,小孩假装睡觉。be asleep和be sleeping表示“在睡觉”,be sleepy表示“昏昏欲睡;想睡觉”。因而选A。注意下列结构: be sleepy (昏昏欲睡的;困了) go to bed (去睡;就寝) go to sleep / fall asleep (入睡;睡着) be asleep (睡着(的状态))/ be sleeping (正在睡觉(表示动作)) wake up (醒来) get up (起床)24. 句意为:为了上学不迟到,我走得匆忙。26. 从句意看,答语使用的是
56、强调句型,故排除C、D项;with不能作连词使用,因而选A。28.“一两个”可以用“a +单数名词+or two”或“one or two +复数名词”表达; “两三个”要用“two or three +复数名词”表达。or表示约略数字,意为“大约”,不用and。a student or two =one or two studentstwo or three studentsthree or four students29. 前文说小说很成功,那么它一定受人欢迎,因而,首先排除C项。选项中receive和popular都能表达这一意思,但是receive是动词,如果用在此处,句子是被动语态,
57、应该用by,而不是with;表示“受某人的欢迎”用be popular with sb,不可用be popular by sb。31. congratulate sb. on / upon (doing) sth.意为“为某事祝贺某人”。congratulation通常用复数congratulations,其后多用介词on。33. stick to表示“坚持(原则、计划、诺言等)”;prove to 表示“向证明”。本题主句为:The theory proves to us that earthquakes can be forecast;hes stuck to是定语从句,其中介词to放在了
58、关系代词前。句意为:他一直以来坚持的理论向我们证明地震是可以预报的。34. 由定语从句表达的意思可知,她是故意踩我的脚。on purpose的意思是“故意;有意地”,其反义词组为by chance或by accident,意思是“偶然;无意”。故选B。35. 在“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句中,介词后不能使用关系代词that,故排除D项;若选C项,在“80%”前应使用and,而不是逗号;B项结构错误;故A项为最佳答案。第二节 完形填空3640 ADBDD 4145 CBABC 4650 CDDCC 5155 DACBD重点解析:37. calm冷静,镇静,多形容人的情绪,情感;silent意
59、为沉默不语的,排除A、C。crowded意为拥挤的,与most people had gone to bed 不相符。故答案为D。38. A、C都不符合句意,discuss为及物动词,后直接接宾语,故只有B为正确答案。41. show不符合句意,brought意思和时态都不恰当,排除A、D;letters可write,但gifts不行,排除B。故答案为C。43. as a matter of fact为固定搭配,意为“事实上”。44. 根据下句I began to sing判断,此处应为sing。45. call up打电话;pick up捡起,拾起;join up连接起来;wake up叫醒
60、。根据上下文,C为正确答案。46 for miles around意为“周围几里”。48. at the top of ones voice习惯搭配,意为“以最大的噪音”。50. 此处强调状态,不强调动作,因此用形容词open。52. may可以用于礼貌地评价或提问等,意思是“可以”,例如:You look lovely, if I may say so. (我觉得你看上去很可爱)。53. 解题时,首先确定Id是I would还是I had的缩写。从句意看,Id是I would的缩写。故选C项,构成Id like to do sth结构。54. Would you be kind enough
61、 to do?是请某人做事或帮忙,是一种非常委婉客气的表达式。55. drop in on sb. 意为visit sb. 拜访某人,故选D。第三部分 阅读理解5660 CACDB 6165 DACBD 6670 CACDB重点解析:56. 从第二段前三句可以推知答案。57.依据It was popular mostly in the South.59.从短文最后一段可以得知。60.依据最后一段,其他国家的人用自己的语言演唱。61. 此题考查细节理解。第一段说明Alice对音乐最感兴趣。62. 第一段末的那句话,表明Alice在唱歌方面没有任何进展,只是声音更大了,因此,她的老师才决定放弃。6
62、4. 此题考查句意理解。老师委婉地说明Alice不适合学音乐,同时也不让她下不了台。“你不会再比今晚唱得好了”,意即你不会有什么提高了。65. 老师因不想撒谎,才说了文中那句话。倘若老师违心,她该极力赞扬Alice的演唱会,说它“棒极了”。66. 此题考查文章大意。这是一篇议论文。前两段提出问题,从反正两面提出如何培养教育(bring up) 孩子成才的问题;后两段从正反两面进行例证。67. 此题考查上下文的逻辑关系。文章第二段从正面提出“如果家长不对孩子抱着不现实的幻想,而是以理智的方法对其进行帮助,孩子就有可能成功”,而Michael就很幸运(Michael is very lucky)。
63、接着文章第三段介绍了他的父母明智的(sensible)、支持(supportive)孩子学习的教育方式。68. Winston的父母抱着不现实的期盼,给孩子定的目标太高,对孩子并没有什么帮助,反而使孩子总是担心会使父母失望。69. 文章第一段提到:几位重要的教育心理学家认为,以把孩子培养成天才为目的,是有些家长所犯的最大的错误之一。70. 此题考查作者的倾向性。从文章内容看,作者赞成对孩子的培养要现实、理智。第四部分 阅读表达1. Importance of Music.(评分要求:依据与文章整体内容的相关程度酌情给分。)2. To me, life without music would n
64、ot be exciting.(评分要求:要求准确找出以上的句子。)3. it has special meanings(评分要求:要求给出的答案要保持与上下文的连贯性,而且与参考答案的意思相近。)4. (略)(评分要求:只要给出文中所列四条建议中的任何一条即可得1分;能对做出的选择进行合理的解释可得2分。)5. 但是不论人们是否意识到这一点,音乐在每一个人的生活中都起重要作用。(评分要求:要求在准确、全面的基础上,翻译成较为通顺的汉语,并表达出作者的思路。)第五部分 书面表达One possible version:Dear Worried, I have received your let
