Unit 5 MusicⅠ.阅读理解A[2020·高考桂林市、崇左市联合模拟]Jamey Turner often performs to large crowds in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. You can find him playing an unusual musical instrument, the glass harp(竖琴), near Alexandria's historic waterfront.A glass harp is made up of different－sized drinking glasses, each containing water. Turner makes music by running his fingers over the tops of the glasses. By doing so, each glass makes a different musical sound.Turner is 78 years old now. He became interested in playing the glass harp at the age of six, when he heard his father playing with a glass of water at the dinner table. He has been playing it for 50 years.Today Turner puts together his instrument by placing 60 different glasses on a wooden soundboard. He holds the glasses in place with rubber bands, which keeps them from breaking. He then adds different amounts of water to each one to create different musical notes. Adding or taking away just a little water will change the sound. Adding water to a glass will make a lower sound. The smaller bowls of water produce a higher sound, while the larger ones produce a lower, deeper sound.Turner always uses low－priced glass because it sounds better than costly crystal (水晶) and he has more control over the sound. Before buying new glasses，he will test them in stores.The glass harp was popular 300 years ago when composers like Wolfgang Mozart wrote music for the instrument. There have been about 400 pieces of music written just for the glass harp. But Turner plays all kinds of music, even popular music from China. Few people play the glass harp these days, but Turner says he sees videos of people experimenting with the instrument on the Internet. He hopes the next generation will continue making their music.1．What do we know about Turner?A．He began playing the glass harp at six.B．He often teaches glass harp lessons online.C．He is a great master of the Chinese language.D．He was inspired by his father to learn the glass harp.2．What does the author say about the glass harp?A．Its inventor is Wolfgang Mozart.B．It is made up of glasses of the same size.C．It appears to be gaining in popularity today.D．Its sounds are affected by the amount of water in the glasses.3．Why does Turner prefer to use cheap glass?A．To save money.B．To produce better sounds.C．To help recycle drinking glasses.D．To increase difficulty in performing.4．What would be the best title for the text?A．A Musician Pleases Crowds by Playing GlassesB．Playing the Glass Harp：a New TrendC．Jamey Turner's Dream Coming TrueD．Wonderful Music Has No BordersB[2020·昆明质量检测]March 3 marks World Hearing Day. This year's theme is “Check your hearing！\” Many experts and health organizations, including those who pay attention to the hearing－impaired(听力受损的), are working to help people realize the importance of protecting their hearing and avoid hearing loss.When we talk about music, what kind of feelings does it bring? Excitement... and relaxation. But what if the music lasts for hours?We interviewed a group of musicians based in Beijing during the weekend. They all said that hours of exposure to loud music can cause discomfort. One added that band members like to play at maximum volume and forget the harm that loud music can cause. The same thing not only occurs to musicians. It's also not rare for daily users since listening to loud music on loud sound equipment has become a part of modern life. According to the WHO, the practice has put more than a billion people around the world, aged 12－35, at risk of losing their hearing.We also interviewed some headphone users in the street, and most of them said that they are not heavy users but admitted that they use headphones for hours on the subway and in the office or home. It's easy for these people to gradually increase the volume without awareness, especially in a noisy environment. Often, headphone users fail to realize they're listening to audio at unsafe levels until serious hearingproblems suddenly occur.There are many reasons for hearing loss, including loud acoustic(听觉的) sources, drug abuse, and diseases. Experts suggest frequent medical checks and prevention measures.Whether congenital(先天的) or acquired, loss of hearing is usually irreversible.“Once the hearing loss occurs, it's already too late to be changed bac k to what it was before，\” said Yang Shiming, an expert of the Chinese PLA General Hospital.“Early prevention, early identification and early treatment. If everyone could do these things, hearing loss and its harm could be kept to a minimum，\” Yang said. Of course, this applies to every one of us.5．What might be a reason for hearing loss?A．Listening to music.B．Taking medicines.C．Ignoring sound pollution.D．Using headphones.6．What does Yang Shiming advise people to do about hearing loss?A．Get rid of drug abuse.B．Make prevention ahead of time.C．Stop playing music in bands.D．Choose music with the help of musicians.7．Which can best explain “irreversible” underlined in the last paragraph?A．Incurable. B．Unavailable.C．Unbelievable. D．Invisible.8．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Preventing Hearing LossB．Reasons for Losing HearingC．The Origin of World Hearing DayD．Raising Awareness of Protecting HearingⅡ.七选五[2020·太原市高三年级模拟试题(二)]Current digital technology gives us music of flawless quality. It also makes it easier to copy, upload and stream music without having to download it. __1__. However, as climate change is on everyone's mind these days，the question related to music arises — Which music consumption form is worse for the environment: CDs, vinyl(黑胶唱片), or digital music? The answer might surpriseyou.__2__， logic would suggest that music downloads and online streaming are good for the environment. But must it surely be more environmentally friendly? Even though streamed music is material－free, that doesn't mean it doesn't have an environmental impact. In fact, the information is searched and sent to our electronic devices across the network, which costs energy. __3__.Researchers found that streaming an album over the Internet will use 27 times more energy than it takes to produce a single CD or vinyl record. In any given second, the music platform is serving about 2.5 million streams at the same time. __4__，that means almost 210,000 albums' worth of music has been streamed. It will use nearly 8,000 times more energy than what making one CD takes. Meanwhile, if you buy a CD, it's there permanently. The only extra energy required is whatever you need to power your CD player.The study was published before Record Store Day — an event that encourages listeners to buy physical record. __5__. Rather, they want you to think about your power use and choose services that minimize their effect on the planet. They also hope this could develop alternatives that are more sustainable without sacrificing the convenience you expect.A．Since our digital music uses less plasticB．If average albums contain twelve tracksC．This happens every time we stream musicD．As a result, streaming music becomes popularE．Although streaming music is a greener alternativeF．It wants to convey effects of streaming on economyG．But the researchers aren't advising playing musictraditionallyⅢ.语法填空[2020·安徽省皖江名校联考] For those who love travel, particularly rail travel, China in 1987 was a kind of place that could not be missed.

You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should respect and be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners?Keep it down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Usually, when you play the music loud on an MP3 player, other people can't hear the words of the song. They just hear a loud sound. No one wants to listen to this. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears. So even if you are alone when listening to your MP3 players, you shouldn't turn it up too high.Take them off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 off and put it away. Libraries and schools don't allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums, that don't have rules, but it would be rude to have your MP3 player on. Sometimes, it doesn't make sense to listen on your MP3 player. Why would you listen to music at a play, a movie or a sporting event? You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came.Take one out! Once in a while it's okay just to take out one earphone and not the other. Imagine you are listening to your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would not be rude to take out one earphone, tell him the way, and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast food restaurant or when you answer the telephone.It's your choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. For example, some people can listen to music on their MP3 players when reading books, while others think it is disturbing. In cases like this, you need to do what seems right for you.1．The underlined word “volume” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”．A．the amount of a soundB．the length of a songC．the type of musicD．the colour of an MP3 player2．Why should we turn down the music when we are alone?A．It may annoy others.B．It can hurt our ears.C．It is bad for MP3 players.D．It will make us tired.3．If we listen to our MP3 players at a play, ________.A．the theatre won't allow itB．the actors will get angryC．others won't hear the play wellD．we may miss part of the play4．The main idea of this passage is about ________.A．music lovers B．music mannersC．music players D．MP3 earphones答案与解析本文介绍了一些有关音乐方面的礼仪规则。

That is the message Dr. Shen Ziyin wants to give the world. And the Chinese doctor claims that he has found an answer to the problem of aging.His solution is a herbal medicine to slow the process of aging.Dr. Shen Ziyin has been trained in Western medicine. At the same time he studied traditional Chinese medicine. And, he has been working for the past forty years to put together the best of both and find a cure for aging. He has taken a hint from the ancient Chinese medicine system called “shen” .According to Shen, it is the kidney that adjusts the functioning ofthe body as well as its aging process. It is responsible for the level of activity that the human bodies go through. Studies conducted by Dr. Shen show that herbal medicine based on the Shen system slow the aging process, says a report in The Telegraph newspaper.We notice that when people grow old, they have reduced strength, loss of hair, backache, weakness in general, and wrinkles, among others. This happens because when people grow old, their bodies produce T-cells. These T-cells contain a particular substance called Fas. Fas makes the cells in the body destruct themselves.So the only way to slow down aging is to slow the production of T-cells in the body. This can happen if people eat low-calorie food. Then the body is not active enough to produce extra T-cells. But, is going hungry all the time a good price to pay for staying young?This is where Dr. Shen’s herbal medicine es. But how effective it will be, only time can tell. (278W)1. How did Dr. Shen find the solution to the problem of aging?A. By studying Western medicine.B. By learning traditional Chinese medicine.C. By bining both Western and Chinese medicine.D. By doing research on both Western and Chinese people.2. What plays the most important role in keeping people young according to Shen?A. Medicine treatment.B. People’s good kidney.C. Level of people’s activity.D. Positive life attitude.3. The reason why people bee old is that .A. their bodies produce T-cellsB. their bodies are unable to fight diseasesC. they have reduced strength, loss of hairD. they bee weaker and weaker4. We can probably learn from the passage that .A. producing more low-calorie food allows people to keep youngB. the more Chinese herbal medicine people drink the better for healthC. people should try to quicken the production of T-cells in the bodyD. it remains unknown how effective Dr. Shen’s herbal medicine isⅢ. 阅读第二节(xx·沈阳模拟)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

UNIT 5 MUSICⅠ.阅读理解AEvery music therapist has a wealth of stories about that beautiful musical moment when art and science come together to create an awareness,anaccomplishment,abreakthrough.I want to share highlights of music therapy,which helped my family find outlets and i nsights through our “ey father,Joe Altman lived his life with strength and determination.As complications associated with diabetes diminished his physical capabilities,his unbeatable will to fight the disease completely hammered away.A WWⅡ Navy Seal,Joe Altman lived by a simple rule:when you get to the end of your rope,tie a knot(结) and hang on.When dementia struck hard and violently broke through Dad’s spirit,music therapist Alessandro Ricciarelli entered hislife.Armed with six strings attached to a wooden guitar,Alessandro surpassed(超过) the capabilities of the most advanced medical technology.Each time Alessandro walked through the door,an invisible wall formed around them,creating a comfortable space in which a trusting bond of friendship would quickly form.Alessandro brought with him happiness,encouragement,added a sense of meaning and purpose to Dad’s life,and,in doing so revived(使复原) his spirit.In a most gentle way,Alessandro treated Joe with the greatest dignity and respect.Alessandro’s action was not limited to actual hospital visits;he took personal time to learn songs that were relevant to Dad and made recordings of their sessions together to be enjoyed at any given time.Alessandro appreciated the power of positive thoughts,and with his kind words,asmile,compassion,and a true desire to make Dad happy,he encouraged Dad’s participation,leaving us with cherished memories of my father having one last chance to eself through music,smiling and enjoying life.In a very real sense,Alessandro was that knot at the end of the rope on to which Dad grabbed.I am forever grateful to the Music Therapy Programme at NYU MedicalCentre,morespecifically,toMr.AlessandroRicciarelli.1.What does the underlined word “diminished” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Improved.B.Replaced.C.Weakened.D.Developed.2.What can be known about the author’s father?A.He used to serve in the army.B.He lived a very easy life.C.He was a superman in physical strength.D.He was good at music when young.3.What kind of person does the author consider Alessandro to be?A.Courageous.B.Strong-willed.C.Open-minded.D.Devoted.4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A.To eusic therapist.B.To call on people to treat patients kindly.C.To discuss ways of improving musical skills.D.To warn readers against developing illness.BA broken heart.A sad ending to a love affair.That’s something most of us have experienced,or probably will.The eight find yourself listening more to sad music,hoping it can resonate with your feelings of disappointment,and you’ll never heal from your broken heart.You might go through a strong feeling of sorrow,as in Neil Young’s OnlyLoveCanBreakYourHeart,or the pain of a lyric from Bob Dylan’s LoveSick:“I’msickoflove.Iwish.I’dnevermetyou.”But research shows listening to sad music can help you begin to feel joy and hopefulness about your life again.Sad music can help heal and uplift you from your broken heart.Or,from any negative,disappointing life situation.It can activate empathy(共情) and the desire to reach out for others—both pathways out of the prison of heartache and hopelessness.A recent study from Germany found the emotional impact of listening to sad music can lift the feelings ofempathy,compassion,and a desire for positive connection with others.That,itself,is psychologically healing.It draws you away from anxiety with yourself,and possibly towards helping others in need of comfort.Another e the University of Kent,found that when people were eusic that was “beautiful but sad” eood.Infact,it did so when the person first consciously understood the situation causing their sadness before beginning to listen to the sad music.Thatis,when they intended that the sad music might help,they found that it did.But that wasn’t true if they just listened to sad music without first thinking about the sad situation.Then,you may be answering the question raised in the old Bee Gees’song,HowCanYouMendaBrokenHeart?5.What does the underlined word “resonate” in paragraph 1 refer to?municate.B.Cooperate.C.Contrast.D.Correspond.6.Why are the songs of Neil Young and Bob Dylan mentioned?A.To present the sad feelings from their songs.B.To celebrate their achievements in the music field.C.To compare the difference between their music.D.To convince others of the healing effects of music.7.What can we learn from the e University of Kent?A.Shared feelings might enable people to help others.B.Sad music can strengthen relationships between people.C.Showing empathy does good both mentally and physically.D.Sad songs can benefit people with the intention of lifting spirits.8.Which is a suitable title for the teusic bring to us?B.How can sad music heal a broken heart?C.Why is sad music so popular?D.When can we turn to others for help?Ⅱ.七选五My heart went out to the drama teacher I read about in a recent news item.Each parent from her class insisted that she cast their own child as Snow White.This reminded me of my seventh grade musical—TheAdventuresofTomSawyer.I desperately wanted to play the role of Becky,the female lead who was Tom’s girlfriend. 1 For starters,Becky had to sing numerous solos,and I couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket.I also didn’t have long blonde curls like pretty Linda Wright who won the part.I was assigned the non-singing role of Miss Watson,themaid.I had to wear an ugly dress.And I had only one line to learn,“That’s what I say.” 2 Miss Watson was onstage in quite a few scenes,and got to repeat “That’s what I say” throughout the play.At last,our production was put onstage.Imagine my surprise when Miss Watson made the audience laugh out loud each time I piped in with “That’s what I say”.Ihadn’t known that she—or I—could be funny,or that her character was important in moving the plot along. 3That night,I began to understand that being the star may not be any more fun than being a stand-out in a supportingrole.Eachperson,onstage and backstage,is essential intheater.Without everyone doing their part,the play would be dull as dirt. 4 If everyone’s a star then nothing gets done.It’s all noise and chaos.And so I believe all children should get the opportunity to play Miss Watson,to become someone they didn’t know they wanted to be. 5A.So it is in life.B.It was not to be.C.It was anything but a great part.D.My Miss Watson turned out to be a hit.E.It took the entire cast to make a good show.F.There was an advantage,in my opinion,though.G.I would hope all children could be a hit in life.Ⅲ.语法填空China National Traditional Orchestra(乐团) launched its youth theater group in Beijing on Sunday.At the

It helps a preschooler(学龄前儿童)：Develop social skillsAs children play pretend, they explore relationships between family members, friends and coworkers and learn more about how people interact. Playing doctor, they imagine how physicians care for their patients. Playing house, they learn more about how parents feel about their children. Imaginative play helps develop empathy(同情) for others. If children can imagine how it feels to be left out of a game or to lose a pet, they are better able to help those in need. They become more willing to play fair, to share, and to cooperate.Build selfconfidenceYoung children have very little control over their lives. Imagining oneself as a builder of skyscrapers(摩天大楼) or a superhero defending the planet is empowering to a child. It helps them develop confidence in their abilities and their potential.Boost intellectual growthUsing the imagination is the beginning of abstract thought.Children who can see a king's castle in a mound(堆) of sand or a delicious dinner in a mud pie are learning to think symbolically(象征性地). This skill is important in school where a child will have to learn that numerals symbolize groups of objects, letters symbolize sounds, and so on.Practice language skillsKids who play pretend with their friends do a lot of talking.This helps boost their vocabulary, improve sentence structure and promote communication skills.Work out fearsPlaying pretend can help children work out their fears and worries. When children roleplay about the big, bad monster under the bed, they gain a sense of control over him and he doesn't seem quite so big or so bad. Imaginative play also helps kids vent(发泄) confusing feelings they might have, such as anger toward a parent or compete with a new sibling(兄弟姐妹)．To encourage your youngster's imagination, read to him every day. Books offer children the opportunity to visit other worlds and create new ones of their own.For generations children have enjoyed reading the story of Peter Pan becausePeter takes them on fascinating adventures.Reader's Digest Young Families offers a beautiful typical Disney edition of Peter Pan, which is an iParenting Media Award winner. Click here to find out how you can get this classic story along with 2 free books—Bambi and Pinocchio.11．What's NOT the advantage of children having a good imagination?A．Understanding the other people's feelings and problems.B．Expressing their feelings like anger.C．Having a strong faith in their own abilities and potential.D．Helping them form a good habit of reading stories.12．What does the underlined word “Boost” mean?A．Improve. B．Limit.C．Push. D．Praise.13．From the last paragraph we can learn that ________．A．Reader's Digest Young Families wins an iParenting Media AwardB．Disney edition of Peter Pan can be got online for freeC．the story of Peter Pan has been popular with kidsD．Bambi and Pinocchio are offered for free because of bad sales14．What's the purpose of writing the article?A．To tell readers the benefits of encouraging children's imagination.B．To introduce some wonderful Disney stories to readers.C．To provide ways of helping make kids more imaginative.D．To persuade parents to buy the Disney edition of Peter Pan.Ⅲ.完成句子15．Every one of us has many responsibilities ____________. We cannot avoid them and must do our best to undertake them. (attach)我们每个人都有属于自己的责任。
2021新高考英语人教版一轮复习学案-第一编必修2Unit5 Music含解析
Unit 5Music晨背分钟填词并背记My First BandI was very sensitive to music. Just dipping into the music books briefly, I could sing or play well. To be honest, I always dreamt of becoming a famous folk actor. I was so confident that I never decreased my devotion.I formed my first band called “Rolling Frog”. At the beginning, we relied on performing on instruments in pubs or to passers－by to earn extra money in cash. Then we wore false beards to pretend to be the musicians whom people were familiar with. In addition, we attached humorous acts to our performances and played jokes on each other. Soon, our “f unny jazz” became famous and invitations to perform for broadcast stations began to come. Afterwards, we sorted out attractive music and made a record in a studio.A million or so copies were sold and we became millionaires.It was painful that the band broke up finally. But above all, I realized my dream to be a musician.我的第一支乐队我对音乐很敏感，只要大致地浏览一下乐谱，我就能演唱或演奏得很好。

2021版高考英语一轮复习Unit5Music基础达标练新人教版必修2**阅读明白得When I was in the sixth grade, I became a big K-pop (Korean pop) fan. Almost half the students at my middle school were Korean and almost all of them listened to Korean music, especially K-pop. I had never been interested in it. It sounded too strange to me, but all changed in the sixth grade when the huge hit Gee came out. All my friends were singing the chorus and imitating the dance. Gee fever sucked me into K-pop. It became my life. I listened to K-pop non-stop and filled my iPod with it. In a month, I had memorized the names of countless members of boy and girl bands and stuck pictures of my singer ＂boyfriends＂ on my walls. I would ditch my weekend art and math classes and go to concerts with my friends. This would always result in my mom shouting that I was wasting my life. My mom thought K-pop was trash and wanted me to like classical music as she did. But classical music made me sleepy.Every day during middle school I went to a K-pop gossip and news site called allkpop . On this site I learned that I could audition(试音) to become a singer in a K-pop band. The shining clothes, thousands of screaming fans and hearing them chant my name seemed much more exciting than being a middle school student. Becoming a K-pop star was all I wanted.I started watching the audition videos of current stars and reading blog posts from people who had auditioned. They explained much about the audition. This made me want to audition even more. After watching those videos, I saw that most of the current stars weren’t that amazing in their auditions and that each singer had improved so much through training. I had never had vocal lessons(声乐课) and didn’t think of myself as a good singer. ＂But if they could do it, I could do that too,＂ I thought.1.What caused the author to fall in love with K-pop?A.

She prefers K-pop to classical music.4.After visiting allkpop , the author ________.A. dreamed of becoming a pop singerB. called the manager of the news siteC. contacted people who had auditionedD. knew she would never become a singer【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。
