本篇短文通过讲述一个在酒吧里演奏钢琴的人,后来成为了著名的歌手,告诉我们每个人都是有能力的,我们要不断地努力去提高它。
【1】句意:他弹奏的如此好以至于很多人来只是为了听他演奏。
very 很,非常;quite 相当;so 如此;such如此,修饰名词。
前三个选项都是副词,都可以修饰空后的well,但是这里考查的句型是so...that如此...以至于...,故应
选C。
【2】句意:但是一天晚上,老板告诉他:一些客人已经厌烦了听钢琴。
interested in对...感兴趣;be fond of喜欢...;be busy with忙于;be tired of厌烦...。
根据下句话...asking you to sing可知,顾客想让这个人唱歌,可见
他们厌烦了听钢琴,故应选D。
【3】句意:他们不断地请求你唱歌。
put on穿上,上演; live on 靠...为生;keep on 继续,持续;get on上车。
根据句意可知,这里是说顾客不断要求这个人唱歌,故应选C。
【4】句意:他以前从来没有在公共场合唱过歌。
public 公共;danger危险;peace和平;surprise惊喜,惊奇。
这里in public是固定短语,在公共场合。
根据句意可知选A。
【5】句意:没有人以前曾听过如此美妙的歌声。
Nobody没有人;Anybody任何人;Somebody某人;
Everybody每个人。
根据上句话everyone was moved by the song可知,客人们都很喜欢他的歌,他们以前没听
过这么美妙的歌声,故应选一个否定意思的词,选A。
【6】句意:他本来可以作为一名普通的钢琴演奏者在酒吧里度过剩下的生活。
missed 错过,想念;lived 生活;saved 拯救,节省;lost失去,丢失。
这里live the ...life度过...的生活,是固定短语,故应选B。
【7】句意:他本来可以作为一名普通的钢琴演奏者在酒吧里度过剩下的生活,但是这一次他继续变成了一个著名
的歌手。
and 和,而且;but 但是,表示转折;or或者,否则;so因此,所以,表示因果关系。
根据句意可知,这里是转折的关系,故应选B。
【8】句意:他本来可以作为一名普通的钢琴演奏者在酒吧里度过剩下的生活,但是这一次他继续变成了一个著名
的歌手。
pianists钢琴家;actors演员;singers歌手;dancers舞蹈家。
根据上文的意思可知,这个人唱了一首歌,歌声非常美妙,因此这里是说他变成了著名的歌手,故选C。
【9】句意:你可能没有意识到你的才能是很强大的,但是它可能比你想的更好。
better更好,是good的比较级;harder更困难的;worse更糟糕的,是bad 的比较级;longer更长的。
根据上句话...your talent is great可知,这
里是说你拥有的才能也许比你想象的更好,故选A。
【10】句意:我怎样使用我所拥有的才能?What什么;Why为什么;How 怎样;When 什么时候。
根据文意可知,上一个问题是我有什么才能,这个问题是我怎样利用我的才能。
故选C。
点睛:这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章,通过一个在酒吧演奏钢琴的人的故事,告诉我们,我们每个人身上都是有天赋的,我们要知道这个天赋是什么,还要很好的去利用它。
题目的设置考查比较全面,包括动词、动词短语、名词、连词、形容词、副词、疑问词等等。
完形填空考查的是我们在具体的语境中使用语言的能力,既考查语法,又考查上下文的语境,是一个综合性很强的题目。
首先我们应对短文的大意有一个了解,很多题目的答案是需要结合上下文才能知道的。
做题的时候,我们要注意空前面的搭配、固定短语、近义词辨析、固定句型等等。
例如第1小题,除了D 选项,前三个选项都是副词,都可以修饰空后面的副词well,当我们知道这句话所使用的句型是so...that的时候,答案就是唯一的了。
再例如第8小题,这个人本来是酒吧里演奏钢琴的,但是上文介绍了他唱了一首歌,顾客们
都非常喜欢,因此这里是说他成为了一个著名的歌手,因此答案是C。
