It is something far less pleasant, like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this or that, and why you did not do this or that. Sour(刺耳的)music, indeed, but it has to be faced.The phrase “to face the music” is familiar to every American, young and old. It is at least 100 years old. Where did the expression come from?The first information comes from the American writer James Fenimore Cooper. He said ----in 1851---that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings(侧) to go on stage. After they got their clue(暗示) to go on, they often said, “It’s time to go to face the music.” And that is exactly what they did----face the orchestra(管弦乐队) which was just below the stage.An actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of the audience that might be friendly or perhaps unfriendly, especially if he forgot his lines. But he had to go out.So, “to face the music”came to mean: having to go through something, no matter how unpleasant the experience might be, because you knew you had no choice.The other explanation comes from the army. Men had to face inspection(视察)by their leader. The soldiers worried about how well they looked. Was their equipment clean----shiny enough to pass the inspection? Still, the men had to go out , and face the music of the band, as well as the inspection. What else could they do?11. According to the passage, the word “music”generally means_________________A. your boss’s criticism（批评）B. your leader’s inspectionC. something unpleasant to be experiencedD. sour pop music12. The phrase “to face the music” was first used by___________________A. all the AmericansB. the American writer James Fenimore CooperC. American actorsD. the American orchestra13. An actor might feel frightened or nervous when going on stage. One of thereasons is that ____A. his performance might satisfy most of the audienceB. he might not remember what he should say on stageC. he had to face the audienceD. the audience might be mostly his friends14. “to face the music” is also used to mean that soldiers were notwilling_________A. to be examined about their equipmentB. to be found lazyC. to show themselves in publicD. to be inspected by their leader15. This passage is mainly about _____________________A. the meaning of the phrase “to face the music”B. how to deal with something unpleasantC. the origin of the phraseD. how to go through difficultyD“Depend on yourself.”is what nature says to every man.Parents can help you.16.____________ Others still can help you. 17.____________ You depend onyourself.There have been many great men in history.Many of them were very poor when they were young,and no uncles,aunts,or friends to help them. Schools were few and not very good.They could not depend on them for education. 18._____________ One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, ＂19.__________＂20.______________They cannot gain achievements unless they see their weeknesses and change their ways.They are nothing now,and will be nothing as long as(只要) they lives as now,unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend on themselves.根据材料内容，将A---E五个句子填入文中空缺处，是短文内容完整、正确，并将其标号填在下面题号后的横线上。
