四、阅读理解（共15小题，共计15分）

阅读下列短文，并做每篇后面的题目，从各题A、B、C、D中选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。

Most musicians agree that the best violins were first made in Cremona, Italy, about 200 years ago. These violins sound better than any others. They even sound better than violins made today. Violin makers and scientists try to make instruments like the Italian violins. But many aren’t the same. Musicians still prefer the old ones.

Some people think it is the age of the violins. But not all old violins sound wonderful. Only the old violins from Cremona are special. So age cannot be answered very quickly.

Other people think the secret to those is the wood. The wood must be from certain kinds of trees. But the kind of wood may not be so important. It may be more important to cut the wood in a special way. Wood for a violin must be cut very carefully. It has to be the right size and shape. The smallest difference will change the sound of the violin. Musicians sometimes think that this was the secret of the Italians. Maybe they understand more than we do about how to cut the wood.

Size and shape may not be the answer either. Scientists can make new ones that are exactly the same size and shape. But the new violins still do not sound as good as the old ones. Some scientists think the secret may be the varnish (清漆). Varnish is what covers the wood of the violin. It makes the wood look shiny(光亮的). It also helps the sound of the instrument. No one knows what the Italian violin makers used in their varnish.

46．The passage is about .

A．the old Italian violins B．musical instruments

C．scientific ideas D．making violins

47．Other people think the Italian violin makers .

A．were lucky B．did not know much about the violin

C．used many kinds of wood D．knew something special

48．Violins made today _____.

A．have the same size and shape as the old ones

B．are better than the old ones

C．sound the same as the old ones

D．have the same varnish as the old ones

49．Some scientists believe that the secret of the old violin was .

A．their color B．their sound C．t heir varnish D．the music 50．Why was the violin painted with the varnish?

A．To make the sound nice. B．To make the appearance shiny.

C．To value the violin. D．Both A and B．

Many people could not forget the dance “Kwan-yin of 1000 H ands”during the CCTV Spring Festival GalA．It was so beautiful that no words could match it. The dance was performed by 20 disabled boys and girls. They couldn't hear or speak. But they used their bodies and hearts to dance. Their performance was remembered by many people. The head dancer of the dance was Tai LihuA．

Tai Lihua was from Yicheng, Hubei Province. She was born healthy. 83 When she was two years old, she lost her hearing because of a fever. Not long after that, she became mute, too. From then on, her world was silent. When she was seven years old, she went to school for deaf and mute children. In that school, she did well in her studies. Her teacher said she used her mind

more than the others and was good at expressing her feelings through dance. She also began to love dance. She thought she could use dance to express what she thought about life.

When she was 15 years old, she began to learn to dance. Because she couldn't hear the music, she must "look at" the teacher and feel the music. She worked harder than the others. She also spent more time learning. Her efforts made her a very good dancer.

The dance Kwan-yin of 1000 Hands makes Tai Lihua and her team famous. But she is still

quiet. She says, "Love is our common I will show my love by dancing, like a sunflower（葵花）smiling at the sun forever."
