Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2014·天津市天津一中高一期中)
For some people, music is no fun at all. About four percent of
the population is what scientists call “amusic.” People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize or reproduce
musical notes (音调). Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs. Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they are very far apart on the musical scale.
As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. Their inability to enjoy music set them apart from others. It can be difficult for other people to identify with their condition. In fact, most people cannot begin to grasp what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even
painful. That is why many amusics intentionally stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in withdrawal and social isolation. “I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventyyearold woman who only recently discovered that she was amusic. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusual condition.
Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from the brains of people who can appreciate music. The difference is
complex, and it doesn't involve defective hearing. Amusics can understand other nonmusical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding ordinary speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just can't see certain colors.
Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed. For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem
with music. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for her condition. That makes it easier for her to explain.
“When people invite me to a concert, I just say, ‘No thanks, I'm amusic,’” says Margaret. “I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy.”
文章大意:文章讲述的是世界上有一群天生不喜欢听音乐的人,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。
1.Which of the following is TRUE of amusics?
A.Listening to music is far from enjoyable for them. B.They love places where they are likely to hear music.
C.They can easily tell two different songs apart.
D.Their situation is well understood by musicians.
答案:A 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 between two songs.”可知,C、D两项错误。
2.According to paragraph 3, a person with “defective hearing” is probably one who ________.
A.dislikes listening to speeches
B.can hear anything nonmusical
C.has a hearing problem
D.lacks a complex hearing system
答案:C 该段前两句讲的是不爱听音乐的人和喜欢听音乐的人是不同的,他们之间的区别很复杂,但是“have no problems understanding ordinary speech.”又提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。句意为: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。
3.In the last paragraph, Margaret expressed her wish that ________.
A.her problem with music had been diagnosed earlier
B.she were seventeen years old rather than seventy
C.her problem could be easily explained
D.she were able to meet other amusics
答案:A
I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy. 意为,我希望我在十七岁的时候就学会了这样说(指的是No thanks, I'm amusic这句,意为,谢谢你,我是一个不喜欢听音乐的人),而不是到了七十岁才学会。从最后一段我们知道,their condition is finally diagnosed(诊断).他们的这种状况终于确诊了,他们都属于amusic,但是这来的太迟了,对于Margaret来说,因为之前她总是felt embarrassed about her problem感到很尴尬,因此她希望她年轻的时候,就可以有现在这样的诊断。
4.What is the passage mainly concerned with?
A.Amusics' strange behaviours. B.Some people's inability to enjoy music.
C.Musical talent and brain structure.
D.Identification and treatment of amusics.
答案:B 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 people's 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。

早上好,我叫莎拉·威廉姆斯。非常荣幸来到这里与大家分享音乐是如何影响了我的人生的。
你是否曾经面对过这样的时刻:一切看起来都很黑暗,而你却毫无希望?两年前,我被告知患上了一种非常严重的几乎不能被治愈的疾病。我的身体一直很疼,因此我觉得我应该没有多长时间可活了。我非常害怕并且感觉很孤独和沮丧。然而有一天,我需要接受一个两小时的治疗。医生想让我放松,所以他让我听一些音乐,其中一首歌叫做“快乐”。那首歌让我感觉好多了,所以从那以后我开始一直听音乐。约翰·洛根说过“音乐是心灵的良药”。确实是,音乐帮助我恢复了健康。
音乐带给我快乐。当我听音乐的时候,它让我感觉灵魂在空中飞翔,就像风中的风筝一样。音乐带给我力量和慰藉。我倚靠音乐这块磐石而变得坚强,并度过了那些艰难的时期。并且,音乐给予我希望和舒适感。它变成了我最好的朋友。它使我的内心深受鼓舞。
当然,我希望你们中的任何人不用经历和我一样的痛苦。同时,我们都会经历各种或感觉难过或感觉孤单的时期。在那些时间里,音乐可以像帮助我一样帮助你。我希望所有人都能开始珍视音乐,让它成为你生命中的一部分。
谢谢。
