Max Mathews has been called the father of computer music.He created electronic tools so that people could use computers as musical in strume nts.He had a great in flue nee on the developme nt of electr onic music and how it is writte n ， recorded and played.
In 1957 ，Mathews wrote the first computer program that enabled a computer to create sound.At that time ，he was working as an engineer at Bell Laboratories in New Jersey.His computer program en abled a large IBM computer to play a 17 sec onds piece of music that he had written.The computer was so slow that it would have taken an hour to play tee piece of music in 17 sec on ds.For that reas on ，Mathews moved the work to a tape player ，which could be sped up to play the music at a normal speed.He later said that the sound quality of the musical notes was not great ，but the technical importa nee of the music was huge.
Mathews continued creating other versions of the Music program.He became
in terested in how computers could help musicia ns outside record ing studios.The Groove program he developed was the first computer program made for live performa nces.
He also developed an electr onic device he called the Radio Bat on. The device looks like two drum sticks .It en ables the user to con trol the speed and sound levels of orchestral music play ing on a computer.The user does this by movi ng the two sticks
on a special electr onic surface.
Mathews believed moder n musicia ns are not making full use of the power of computer music.He said a violin always sounds like a violi n.But with a computer ，the way a violi n sounds is un limited.He said he did n't want computer sounds to replace
live music.But he said he hoped laptop computers would one day be considered serious in strume nts.

【答案】D
B
Shakespeare ，more perhaps than any other writer ，made full use of the greatest resources of the English language.Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal employment of English;
Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand! There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which
Shakespeare uses it.Such a study is well worth the effort ，even though some aspects of English usage ，and the meaning of many words ，have changed since Shakespeare's day.
However，it is surprising that weshould know comparatively （相对地） little about the life of the greatest English author.We know that Shakespeare was born in 1564 in Stratford-on-Avon ，and that he died there in 1616.He almost certainly attended the grammar school in the town ，but of this we cannot be sure.We know that he was
married there in 1582 to Anne Hathaway and that he had three children.We know that he spent much of his life in London writing his masterpieces.But this is almost all that we do know.
However，what is important about Shakespeare's life is not its details but its products ，the plays and the poems.For many years scholars have been trying to add a few facts about Shakespeare's life to the small number we already possess and for an equally long time critics （批评） have been theorizing （理论化） about the
plays.Sometimes ，indeed ，it seems that the poetry of Shakespeare will disappear under the great mass of comment that has been written upon it.
Fortunately ，this is not likely to happen.Shakespeare's people have long delighted not just the English but lovers of literature everywhere ，and will continue to do so after the scholars and critics and all their works have been forgotten.
5．What's Paragraph 1 mainly about?
A．The great varieties in writing styles.
B．The great length of Shakespeare's works.
C．The richness of the content in Shakespeare's works.
D．The rich English language used by Shakespeare in his works.
【解析】段落大意题。

本段开头点出莎士比亚与其他作家相比较，对英语使用的最为充分，接着对其进行了例证，即其作品中的词汇是常人使用的词汇的5倍。

由此可知D项正确。

【答案】D
6．According to the passage ，which of the following remains uncertain about Shakespeare?
A．His date of birth.
B．His marriage.
C．His life in the grammar school.
D．His date of death.
【解析】细节理解题。

根据第二段第三句“ He almost certainly attended...cannot be sure. ”可知，莎士比亚有没有上过语法学校不确定。

所以选 C 项。

【答案】C
7．What does the last sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. People don't think the poetry of Shakespeare good any more.
B．People pay more attention to the comment than the poetry of Shakespeare.
C．People can't read the poetry of Shakespeare any more.
D．The comment is printed on the poetry of Shakespeare.
【解析】推理判断题。

在大量的评论之下，莎士比亚的诗歌看起来会消失，由此可以看出人们过多地观注了评论而忽略了诗歌。

【答案】B
8．“ Shakespeare's people ” in Paragraph 4 refers to ______ .
A．the characters in Shakespeare's works
B．the people living in Shakespeare's day
C．the readers of Shakespeare's works
D．the people whose native language is English
【解析】细节理解题。

该段从侧面肯定了莎士比亚的作品，是“莎士比亚作品中的人物”为英语增加了光彩，也使热爱文学的人们感到愉悦。

【答案】A
C
Mark Twain left school whenhe was twelve.He had little school education.In spite of this ，he became the most famous writer of his time.He made millions of dollars by writing.His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens ，but he is better known all

In 1870，Mark Twain got married.In the years that followed he wrote many books including TomSawyer in 1876 ，and Huckleberry Finn in 1884，which made him famous，and brought him a great fortune.
Unfortunately ，Mark Twain got into debts in bad investments and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts.In 1904，his wife died ，and then three of their children passed away.
At the age of 70，his hair was completely white.He bought many white suits and neckties.He wore nothing but white from head to foot until his death on April 21,1910.

【答案】B
D
One of the most famous movie directors of all time was Alfred Hitchcock.He is most famous for his mystery movies.When he died in 1980 ，he had made over fifty complete movies.
Hitchcock was born in London in 1899.He was very shy and he went to very strict schools.He studied to be an engineer ，but he was always interested in movies.He used to go to the cinema as often as he could.In his free time he also used to write stories that he wanted to make into movies.
Hitchcock gave up the idea of becoming an engineer when he got a small job with a movie ter he got a job as an assistant director.He often had some very clever ideas for filming movies ，so later his employer gave him a chance to make
a movie by himself.His first movie was made in 1920s，so of course it was a “ silent
・”
movie”．
He made several other silent movies before he made“ Blackmail ”，which was his first talking movie ，and of course was another mystery movie.
In 1939 Hitchcock moved to Los Angeles ，which was becoming the new centre for
film-making.The first movie that Hitchcock madein the USwas called “ Rebecca”．He got most of the stories for his movies from novels and plays.After reading a novel or play ，he would create the movie script by himself ，and choose the actors and actresses ，and also decide where and how to shoot each
scene.
Hitchcock's movies are generally thought to be good movies because he did these things well: choosing of the story ，writing of the script ，selecting of the actors and actresses ，and the creating of the scene.Hitchcock used to do most of these jobs
entirely by himself.
Alfred Hitchcock will probably always be remembered as one of the greatest movie directors of all time.He will be remembered for his mystery stories and for the number of good films that he directed.
13． In what ways did Hitchcock show an interest in movies when he was young?
A ． He went to very strict schools to learn it.
B ． He often read mystery stories.
C ． He was very shy but studies hard.
D ． He often went to the cinema.

【导学号：33030049】
Although many Chin ese stude nts say that their kno wledge of En glish grammar is good，most would admit that their spoken English is poor.Whenever I speak to a Chinese student , they always say，“ Myspoken English is poor. ” _16__ I would like to suggest that there may be some reas ons for their problems with spoke n En glish.
First ，they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary.__17__ However ，you can speak with a limited vocabulary ，if you choose a positive attitude.Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.
_18_ Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and n ervous.Yet stude nts should remember that their goal should be flue ncy not accuracy.Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using the right words and spelling them correctly.However ，in speaking your aim is flue ncy.You want to get your message across，to talk to some one in En glish ，as quickly and as well as you can ，even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense
，
but it does n't matter.__19__ _
The third reas on is that not eno ugh atte ntio n is paid to liste nin g.You have one mouth but two ears ！All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.
Fourth ，most Chinese students are reactive rather than proactive Ianguage learners.ln stead of actively seek ing out opport un ities to improve their spoke n En glish they passively wait for speak ing opport un ities to come to them and won der why their En glish always rema ins poor.__20__ _
A. The person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowances for any mistakes he hears.
B. They may try to avoid making similar mistakes next time.
C. Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary.
D. If you have this proactive outlook , then you will see English opportunities wherever you go.
E. However, their spoken English does not have to remain “ poor ”！
F. Second, they are afraid of making mistakes.
G. The second reason lies in the reluctanee
of using what has just been learned. 【答案】16 —20 ECFAD
