Do you play a musical instrument？Would you like to share a stage with world －class famous composers(作曲家)？Do you dream of becoming the next Lang Lang？Now is your chance to__make__it__big in the classical music world，thanks to a video －sharing website.
In collaboration with(与……合作) orchestras such as the London Symphony Orchestra，New York Philharmonic and several others，the video－sharing site has launched the“YouTube Symphony Orchestra Project”．
Billed(宣传) as the world’s first collaborative online orchestra，the site wants users to submit videos showing their musical talent.
Beijing Olympics theme music composer Tan Dun has written the audition(试听) piece.He told the BBC his latest composition was inspired by walking around the streets of New York and hearing the sounds of mechanics.
The Internet is an invisible Silk Road，joining people across the world.“Anyone can download a score of my Internet Symphony No.1 ‘Eroica’，pick any part of it and play it with any instrument or object，in any style，”he said.
In addition to Tan Dun’s piece，users will also have to perform a famous classical piece of their choices showing their musical and technical abilities.A team of experts will then whittle(减少) the field down to a shortlist of semi－finalists who will then be voted on by YouTube viewers.
The competition hopes to inspire musicians from all over the world.Music means
so much to different people，in different countries.“It’s not just about the note of music，it’s about discovery，”said the music director of the San Francisco Symphony，Michael Tilson Thomas.
With just three months till the competition deadline in February next year，anyone hoping to perform on the world stage and be part of musical history must act quickly.
As New York Carnegie Hall’s executive director Clive Gilinson puts it，“This will be a one－of－a－kind moment in classical music，bringing musicians together in a totally new，modern and unique way.”

A new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops(笔记本电脑)．
Students are increasingly using laptops for note－taking because of speed and legibility(清晰度)．But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught.
Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes“mindlessly”by taking down word for word what the professors said.
In the first experiment，students were given either a laptop or pen and paper.They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual note－taking skills.Thirty minutes after the talk，they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts.
The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand.However，the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts.Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts.
The researchers’ report said，“While more notes are beneficial，if the notes are taken mindlessly，as is more likely the case on a laptop，t he benefit disappears.”
In another experiment aimed at testing long－term memory，students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture.This time，the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam.
These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding，but also lead to superior revision in the future.
【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

文章揭示了实验研究的结果：用笔记本电脑记笔记的人记忆和应用概念的能力较差，而用手记笔记的人在考试中的表现更好。

28．More and more students favor laptops for note－taking because they can________．
A．write more notes
B．digest concepts better
C．get higher scores
D．understand lectures better
A解析：细节理解题。

该句中的speed与答案A中的write more notes表意一致，这一点在第五段第一句也可以得到印证。

29．While taking notes，laptop users tend to be________．
A．skillful B．mindless
C．thoughtful D．tireless
B解析：细节理解题。

根据第三段内容可知，研究人员做实验的目的是弄清楚用电脑记笔记是否更容易让学生不动脑思考。

后文说明这种假设已经被证实了。

由此可判断用电脑记笔记的人在操作过程中往往会不动脑思考，故选mindless。

30．The author of the passage aims to________．
A．examine the importance of long－term memory
B．stress the benefit of taking notes by hand
C．explain the process of taking notes
D．promote the use of laptops
B解析：写作意图题。

文章通过两次实验尤其是第二次实验证明了动手记笔记对长期记忆的益处，由此可知作者是提倡用手而不是用笔记本电脑来记笔记。

故作者写此文的目的是强调用手记笔记的益处。

31．The passage is likely to appear in________．
A．a newspaper advertisement
B．a computer textbook
C．a science magazine
D．a finance report
C解析：文章出处题。

本文通过实验来证明动手记笔记的益处，这属于科普类文章，故本文最有可能出现在科学类的杂志上。

Rock and roll music first became popular in the 1950s. There were many popular rock and roll singers during that time, but only a few of those singers are still popular. 36.________
Elvis Presley sang different types of music. He sang country and blues music. He also sang music that you might hear in church, but it was rock and roll music that made Elvis very popular. In fact, the songs of Elvis became so famous that people gave the singer a special name. 37.________ Today many people still call him “the king” for short.
38．________ Not everyone always agrees with their names, but many newspapers and magazines use the names. For example, in the 1980s pop music became famous, and Michael Jackson was the most popular singer. People thought that the pop music was really just one kind of rock and roll music, so they did not want to call Michael Jackson“King”. Elvis was still the king. As a result, Michael Jackson was given t he name “the Prince of Pop”．
However, Michael Jackson was not the only famous pop singer in the 1980s. Madonna was also very popular. 39.________ More than one woman has been called“the Princess of Pop”. Two of the most famous “Pop Princesses”are Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.
It is interesting that no woman was ever named“the Queen of Rock and Roll”. There was a Queen of Disco and a Queen of Country music, but never a Queen of Rock.

A．She was given the name “the Q ueen of Pop”．
B．Nobody was given the name “the Prince of Pop”．
C．People like Michael Jackson and his rock and roll music.
D．Other famous singers have also been given special names.

【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了几位著名的摇滚流行歌手，这些歌手都有自己的别称。

36．F解析：上文讲到在20世纪50年代有很多著名的摇滚流行歌星，但他们当中只有少数人现在仍然受欢迎，而下一段中介绍了Elvis Presley，故选择F项“今天大多数人都熟悉Elvis Presley这位歌手”既承接上一句又引出对下文的论述。

37．E解析：上一句中提到由于Elvis Presley太有名了，人们给了他一个特殊的称号。

该空应紧承上文，介绍人们给他的别称是什么，再结合下一句中的the king可知，应选E项。

38．D解析：第三段中介绍了其他著名歌星的别称，故用D项“其他著名歌星也被冠上了特殊的称号”，引出下文中对其他歌星别称的介绍。

39．A解析：杰克逊是著名流行歌星，他被称为“the Prince of Pop”；麦当娜也很受欢迎，因此人们称她为“the Queen of Pop”，故A项正确。

40．G解析：上一句中提到目前还没有一个女歌星被称为Queen of Rock。

G项“也许将来会有一个女歌手得到这个特殊的称号”，紧承上一句，是作者的猜测。

【解题导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要针对去英国和爱尔兰旅游要做的准备提出了一些建议。

61．to解析：考查介词。

apply to为固定搭配，意为“应用于”。

此处意思是说根本没有什么适合于所有人的“必须去看的事物”。

62．their解析：考查代词。

所填词修饰own，因此可知应该填their，their own他们自己的。

63．up解析：考查副词。

It is up to sb. to do sth.固定句型表示“由某人决定做某事”。

up to“取决于”。

64．researching解析：考查非谓语动词。

所填词位于介词into后作其宾语，因此应该用动名词形式。

65．valuable解析：考查形容词。

空格后面的名词information应该用形容词来修饰。

valuable“有价值的”。

66．where解析：考查宾语从句引导词。

you are going作about的宾语从句，从句中缺少地点状语，所以填where。

67．halves解析：考查名词。

空前面出现数词two，因此此处必须用复数形式，所以填halves。

68．to visit解析：考查非谓语动词。

would like后接动词不定式，would like to do sth.表示“愿意做某事”，因此填to visit。

69．be discussed 解析：考查被动语态。

句子主语transport 与所给词discuss 之间是动宾关系，所以应该用被动语态，谓语部分有情态动词can ，因此填be discussed 。

70．paid 解析：考查非谓语动词。

所填词作定语修饰名词travel agents ，意思是我们不是那种由客户支付费用的旅游代理，此处需要用过去分词作定语，因此填paid 。
