ARock music in one form or another is the most popular type of music all over the world. But where did it come from?Rock began in t he USA in the early 1950s. At that time, “rhythm and blue” music was very popular with black Americans. “R&B” was a mixture of black religious music and jazz. It had strong rhythms that you could dance to and simple, fast words.Noticing the success of R&B music, white musicians started to copy the same style. By the mid­1950s, this new white R&B music, called rock ’n’ roll, had become very popular. Singers like Elvis Presley and Bill Haley attracted millions of teenage fans. Their music was fast and loud. Many older people thought that rock ’n’ roll was very dangerous.By the early 1960s, even rock ’n’ roll had become old­fashioned. Many of the songs had begun to sound the same. It was at that time that a new group from England became popular — the Beatles.The Beatles first started by singing American style songs, but they soon developed their own style, with more complicated tunes. They also introduced different instruments. Groups like the Beatles had a very important influence on the style of popular music.By the early 1970s, rock ’n’ roll had developed into a new form of music. Electronics had replaced the amplified guitars and drums of rock ’n’ roll. “Rock” had arrived.Rock music had continued to change and develop. It had combined with music from different parts of the world. Today, there are hundreds of different types of rock music, and almost every country has its own form of rock.语篇解读:本文介绍了摇滚乐的发展史。

Karaoke is a kind of acoustic equipment(音响设备) which was invented in Japan around the middle of the 1970’s. It means in Japanese “a band without people”. In fact, it is just a music tape without words. This equipment first appeared in some public houses and small restaurants,and mainly for people to enjoy themselves. Most of the music in karaoke was popular music. So at times, when anyone felt like it, he might sing songs to the acpaniment(伴奏) of the music that came from the equipment. Shortly after its invention, karaoke was spread to the whole world. It was introduced to China and was weled by many people. Although you are not a good singer, or even sometimes you may sing out of tune, you can always enjoy yourself by singing karaoke.56.

His lawyer told him and then said, “ Do you know him?” The man answered, “ No, but I want to know his name so that I can send him some valuable gifts.” The lawyer got unhappy. “ You can’t do that,” he said, “If you should do that, you would be breaking the law seriously, and you should be sure to lose the case.” Some weeks later the case was heard, and the man won it. As he was leaving the court, he said to the lawyer, “My present, which I sent to the judge, was quite successful, wasn’t it?” The lawyer was even more surprised and angry, and said, “What? Did you really send him some presents after what I told you?” “Yes, certainly,” answered the man, “But I put my enemy’s name on the card which I sent with the valuable gifts.”60.

As you explore, you will find people at work, and in worship(做礼拜). You’ll find music expresses love of co untry, love of nature, and love of home. Music is also an expression of the poser. As an artist, the poser expresses his own musical ideas. He studies the materials of music and discovers ways of using them. He looks for new kinds of musical expression. Music can suggest activities and feelings, which we all share. We can enjoy playing and singing music, dancing and listening to the music of the people and the artists of different timeand places.64.

第Ⅰ卷60分,第Ⅱ卷40分,共100分。

考试时间90分钟。

第Ⅰ卷(选择题共60分)第一部份阅读理解(共两节;满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)ALife gets noisier every day and very few people can be free from noise of some sort or another. It doesn't matter where you live—in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village—the chances that you will be disturbed by jet aeroplanes, transistor radios, oil­powered engines, etc, are almost everywhere. We seem to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without background_music while they are working.Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be a very frightening experience for human beings. However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their eardrums(耳鼓). The noise level in some disco is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.One recent report about noise and concentration(专心) suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really affects their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise, which doesn't change too much (music, for example ) may even help people to concentrate.1. The best title for this passage is “________”.A. Noisy lifeB. Background noiseC. Disturbed concentrationD. Changeable noise2. From this passage, the pollution of noise________.A. doesn't matter muchB. has become worse everywhereC. has become better in big citiesD. has become better in villages3. The underlined phrase “background music” in Paragraph 1 means“________”.A. music played in the concertB. a kind of noise coming into your earsC. music that helps people to concentrateD. music that is played while people are working4. Scientists have discovered that what prevents people from concentrating is________.A. any kind of noiseB. great changes in the level of noiseC. background noiseD. various background musicBToday, roller skating is easy and fun. But a long time ago, it wasn't easy at all. Before 1750,people never tried skating on wheels. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. His work was making instruments. He liked to play the violin in his free time. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. People called him a dreamer.One day he received an invitation to go to an important party. He was pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make an amazing entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would attract a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin. He was sure that everyone would be very surprised.On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room, playing his violin. Everyone was reallysurprised to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. The mirror fell down, breaking into pieces. Merlin's idea was so good that nobody forgot his special entrance for a long time.5. According to the passage, people began to enjoy roller skating ________.A. before the year 1750B. before the invitationC. because of Joseph MerlinD. because it was dangerous6. What made Merlin think of skating on wheels?A. Merlin's work.B. Merlin's violin.C. A huge mirror.D. An important party.7. What was Merlin's problem after he rolled into the room?A. Everyone was surprised at him.B. He couldn't stop his roller skating.C. He couldn't attract a lot of attention.D. He couldn't play the violin while rolling.8. The passage is mainly about________.A. a strange manB. an unusual partyC. how roller skating beganD. how people enjoyed themselves in the 18th centuryCMost people buy a lot of gifts just before Christmas. But some people think we buy too much. They have started a special day called Buy Nothing Day. They don't want anyone to go shopping that day.Buy Nothing Day is on November 29. It's 25 days before Christmas. It's after Thanksgiving and often the first day of Christmas shopping. At this time, we see ads in newspapers and on TV tellingus to “buy, buy, buy”!The idea for Buy Nothing Day started in Vancouver, British Columbia. Now people all over the world celebrate Buy Nothing Day. In California, parents and children get together to read stories, sing songs, and paint pictures. The children talk about why they don't need a lot of toys. This year, in Manchester, England, people dressed up to tell people that we buy too much.In Albuquerque, New Mexico, high school students wanted to tell other students about Buy Nothing Day. They organized a spaghetti dinner to give people information about Buy Nothing Day. They asked restaurants in the neighbourhood to donate the food. They made posters and talked to other students about it. The dinner was a big success, and many students agreed not to buy anything on November 29. The students at high school liked the idea of this new tradition. Next year, they want to have another dinner to tell more people about Buy Nothing Day!9. Which of the following is NOT the day for people to celebrate Buy Nothing Day?A. The first day after Christmas.B. 25 days before Christmas.C. After Thanksgiving.D. November 29.10. When do people usually do shopping?A. Before Thanksgiving.B. On Christmas.C. Anytime.D. Before Christmas.11. How do people celebrate Buy Nothing Day?A. In California, parents and children get together to play games.B. In England, people celebrated by performing plays.C. They bought nothing and made the others decide not to.D. In Mexico, high school students dressed up.DHis talent and charm(魅力) have made him the Chinese classical artist in the world. He played in the grand Beijing Olympic opening ceremony, watched by a TV audience of 5 billion.Lang Lang is the first Chinese pianist to play with the world's top orchestra, making his debut at the Carnegie Hall in New York at 18, while still a student.Lang Lang's charm and fondness for sharp clothes make him a natural fit to represent(代表) China's new international image. According to the British newspaper The Times,“The Lang Lang effect” is responsible for driving 36 million Chinese children to learn the piano.Now in China children are learning Chopin(肖邦) and Western orchestras are touring Chinese cities, but can China ever export(出口) its own music to the West? Lang is trying. His cooperation with the London Symphony Orchestra includes a performance of Dragon Songs,and an album of traditional Chinese classics.Behind the international recognition, however, is a fascinating story of a gifted child. Lang grew up with his father's own musical ambition and high expectations. It is not hard to imagine how boring it must be to practise the piano every day. Lang said that he once hated his hands and the piano. He injured his right hand six years ago and had to rest.“That was the best month,” he says, without hesitation. “I had a date. I saw a Broadway show and saw Britney Spears in concert.”12. Which of the following is NOT the reason why Lang Lang is the Chinese classical artist in the world?A. He played in the Beijing Olympic opening ceremony.B. He has as many as 5 billion fans in China.C. He is the first Chinese pianist to play with the world's top orchestra.D. He plays the piano so well and has a good international image.13. The under lined word “debut” in the second paragraph probably means“________”.A. first classB. first performanceC. first planD. first choice14. Which of the following statements about Lang is TRUE?A. He has 36 million Chinese students in China.B. He is touring China giving concerts.C. He is trying to export Chinese music to Western countries.D. He only played traditional Chinese classics in his cooperation with the London Symphony Orchestra.15. From the last paragraph we can infer that________.A. Lang didn't like his father when he was youngB. he was happy to practise the piano every dayC. his father's desire and expectations played an important role in his childhoodD. he injured his right hand on purpose six years ago第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)按照短文内容,从短文后的选项当选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Module 3 Music(建议用时:45分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解(2019·昆明高三摸底调研测试)A study of 500,000 songs released(发行) in the UK between 1985 and 2015 showed that pop music had decreased in happiness and increased in sadness.In a report published in the journal RoyalSocietyOpenScience, researchers at the University of California examined hundreds of thousands of songs and classified them by their mood. “‘Ha ppiness’ is going down, ‘sadness’ is going up, and at the same time, the songs are becoming more ‘danceable’ and more ‘party­like’,” co­author Natalia L. Komarova told The Associated Press.The study found songs in 2014 like StayWithMe by Sam Smith, Whispers by Passenger and Unmissable by Gorgon City have a “low happiness” trend. However, tracks from 1984 like GloryDays by Bruce Springsteen, WouldILieToYou?by Eurythmics and Freedom by Wham had a “high happiness” trend. “The public seems to prefer happier songs, even though more and more unhappy songs are being released each year,” the researchers wrote.Apart from the emotional trends, researchers discovered that dances and pop were the most successful styles of music and that there was a “clear downward” trend, with the popularity of rock beginning in the early 2000s. “So it looks like, while the overall mood is becoming less happy, people seem to want to forget it all and dance,”Komarova wrote in an email.It was also found that the “maleness” of songs—the frequency of male singers in popular music—had decreased during the last 30 years. “Successful songs are characterised by a larger percentage of female artists compared to all songs,” they wrote.This discovery appears at a time when the conversation around sex equality in the music industry is at its height, with more male artists and songwriters.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了流行音乐表达的情绪的变化趋势。

The Internet is a network.It uses the telephone to join millions of computers together around the world.Maybe that doesn't sound very interesting.But when you've joined to the Internet, there are lots and lots of things you can do.You can send e-mails to your friends,and they can get them in a few seconds.You can also do with all kinds of information on the World Wide Web (WWW).There are many different kinds of computers now.They all can be joined to the Internet.Most of them are small machines sitting on people's desks at home, but there are still many others in schools, offices or large companies.These computers are owned by people and companies, but no one really owns the Internet itself.There are lots of places for you to go into the Internet.For example, your school may have the Internet.You can use it during lessons or free time.Libraries often have computers joined to the Internet.You are welcome to use it at any time.Thanks to the Internet,the world is becoming smaller and smaller.It is possible for you to work at home with a computer in front, getting and sending the information you need.You can buy or sell whatever you want by the Internet.But do you know 98% of the information on the Internet is in English? So what will English be like tomorrow?41.What is the passage mainly about?A.Internet. B.Information.C.Computers. D.E-mails.42.Which is the quickest and cheapest way to send messages to your friends?A.By post. B.By E-mail.C.By telephone. D.By satellite.43.Which may be the most possible place for people to work in tomorrow?A.In the office. B.At school.C.At home. D.In the company.44.Who is the owner of the Internet?A.The headmaster. B.The officer.C.The user. D.No one.45.What does the writer try to tell us with the last two sentences?A.English is important in using the Internet.B.the Internet is more and more popular.C.Most of the information is in English.D.Every computer must have the Internet.CEver Googled yourself and found someone who has your name—and a very different life?You've just met your Googleganger.Eve Fairbanks is a student at Yale University.Her name appeared on a few X-rated sites when her mother had Googled her out of curiosity.But that Eve Fairbanks wasn't her Eve—it was a “Googleganger”,a virtual(虚拟的)or real person with the same name.Much like the verb “to Google” has become as familiar in our everyday language as “to search”,the term “Googleganger”has also caught on with a generation of people judged not so much by their accomplishments but how Google-able those accomplishments are.“You are who you are because of Google,”says Matthew Slutsky,a 26 political blogger who has befriended his own Googleganger on Facebook(大学生网络社区).For some,your Googleganger is your rival in a race to the top of the Google hit list.It can also be a source of comparison.For others,a Googleganger is a lifelong irritant(刺激剂).Minnesota IT consultant Robert Fischer was 10 years old when “Searching for Bobby Fischer”the 1993 movie about a great chess talent,came out.It made things awkward at home—Robert's grandfather was training him to be a chess champ,too!“And here was some kid who was younger and better than I'd ever been,”he says.And now it's dashing his hopes of upping his Google rank.At least he didn't share his name with a porn(色情)star.Fairbanks got lucky in the end.Her name was removed from the sites,thanks to Google's support team.And as it turned out,porn star Eve might not have actually existed:her name,Google told our Eve,might have been created as a marketing means to drive more traffic to the porn sites.46.What word(s) did Eve's mother put in the Google text box for her search?A.Googleganger. B.Eve Fairbanks.C.Yale University. D.X-rated sites.47.One who ______ is your Googleganger.A.shares your name but lives a very different lifeB.has used Google to search for youC.you find sharing your name when you Google yourselfD.you make friends with after you Google search48.“You are who you are because of Google ”means how important you are depends on ______.A.how often you Google yourselfB.how you deal with your GooglegangersC.how well you can use GoogleD.how Google-able your accomplishments are49.Robert Fischer now wishes to ______.A.become a chess champ himselfB.climb higher on the Google listC.change his name to Bobby FischerD.find all his Googlegangers50.What is the name of the porn star?A.Eve Fairbanks. B.Robert Fischer.C.Bobby Fischer. D.Minnesota IT.DLong bus rides are like television shows.They have a beginning,a middle,and an end with commercials(商业广告)thrown in every three or four minutes.The commercials are unavoidable.They happen whether you want them or not.Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window.“Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.”“Drink Good Wet Root Beer.”“Fill up with Pacific Gas.”Only if you sleep,which is equal to turning the television set off,are you spared the unending cry of“You Need It!Buy It Now!”【出处:21教育名师】The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting,even if you've traveled that way ually some things have changed new houses,new buildings,sometimes even a new road.The bus driver has a style of driving and it's fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so.If the driver is particularly reckless(鲁莽的)or daring,the ride can be as thrilling(惊心动魄的)as a suspense story.Will the driver pass the truck in time?Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane?After a while,of course,the excitement dies down.Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride.Food always makes bus rides moreinteresting.But you've got to be careful of what kind of food you eat.Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning.You know it will soon be over and there's a kind of expectation and hours have passed.By now you've sat with your legs crossed,with your hands in your lap,with your hands on the armrests even with your hands crossed behind your head.The end comes just at no more ways to sit.51.According to the passage,what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?________A.Buses on the road.B.Films on television.C.Advertisements on the billboards.D.Gas stations52.What is the purpose of this passage?________A.To give the writer's opinion about long bus trips.B.To persuade you to take a long bus trip.C.To explain how bus trips and television shows differ.D.To describe the billboards along the road.53.The writer of this passage would probably favor________.A.bus drivers who aren't recklessB.driving aloneC.a television set on the busD.no billboards along the road54.The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because ________.A.the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are fun B.they both have a beginning,a middle,and an end,with commercials in between C.the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on buses D.both traveling and watching TV are not exciting55.The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are ________.A.exciting B.comfortableC.tiring D.boringⅣ.阅读表达(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)[1]Fear and pain are two of the most useful things that human beings and animalshave, if they are properly used.If fire did not hurt when it burnt, children would play with it until their hands were burnt away.Similarly, if pain existed but fear didn't, a child would burn himself again and again, because fear would not warn himself to keep away from the fire that had burnt himself before.A really fearless soldier is not a good soldier because he will soon be killed; and a dead soldier is of no use to his army.Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which human beings and animals might soon die out.[2]In our first sentence we suggested that fear should be properly used.If, for example, you never go out of your house because of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much.Even in your house you are not absolutely safe: A plane may crash on your house, or you may get cancer![3]The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but to use fear as your servant and guide instead.Fear will warn you of dangers; then you have to decide what action to take.[4]In many cases, you can take quick and successful action to avoid the danger.For example, you see a car coming straight towards you.Fear warns you, then you jump out of the way, and all is well.[5]In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to ________.For example, you can't prevent a plane crashing onto your house.In this case, fear is no longer of any use, and you have to try to overcome it.56.What is mainly talked about in this passage?(no more than 15 words) ________________________________________________________57.How does the author support his idea in Paragraph 2?(no more than 5 words) ________________________________________________________58.Why does the author say that a fearless soldier is not a good soldier?(no more than 15 words)________________________________________________________59.What benefit can we get from“fear”according to the passage?(no more than 10 words)________________________________________________________60.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 5 with proper words.(no more than 5 words) ________________________________________________________Ⅴ.写作(满分30分)请根据下列提示,写一篇120~150词的英语短文,介绍人民音乐家聂耳。

AChuck,unlike other frogs,didn't like catching flies himself.But he did love eating them.Some frogs thought Chuck was lazy.Some believed he must think he was too goodfor them.Some thought Chuck was the strangest frog ever.That didn't matter to Chuck.Each morning,Chuck jumped over and sat under the spider's web.Then when Lady Eightlegs went off to dip (浸) her feet in the pond,Chuck ate flies from her web.One morning while Chuck was enjoying his fly breakfast,Lady Eightlegs returned and caught him.“You're the one who keeps eating my flies!”she cried.Chuck jumped away and into the pond.Now there was an idea!Why not spin (结) his own web?He collected some vines (葡萄藤) from a nearby farm.Then he began to spin his web.He worked on his web for hours,until very late at night.And then he fell asleep.When he woke up the next morning,he found that he got caught by the vines.“Help!”he shouted.Lady Eightlegs looked up from the edge of the pond.She hurried up to help Chuck out of the vine web.“No matter how hard I try,I can't spin a spider's web,”Chuck said.“Of course not,”Lady Eightlegs said.“You're a frog.Frogs can't spin spide r's webs any better than spiders can swim,I guess.”“But I always see you in the water,”Chuck said.“I only wade in (蹚水) up to my knees,”Lady Eightlegs sighed.“How wonderful it would be to swim in the middle of the pond and float (漂浮) peacefully under the sun.”Chuck smiled,“I have an idea.”From that day forward,Chuck carried Lady Eightlegs out to the middle of the pond,where they floated and played together.When they returned to land,they shared a breakfast of flies from her spider's web.It wasn't exactly an ordinary friendship.But Chuck was not an ordinary frog.36.The second paragraph is written to show that Chuck ______.A.was different from other frogsB.didn't get along well with other frogsC.led a lonely lifeD.was a proud frog37.Where did Chuck get his breakfast?A.He stole it from Lady Eightlegs. B.He cooked it himself.C.His frie nds gave it to him. D.He found it in the pond.38.What do we know about Chuck's web?A.Lady Eightlegs helped Chuck spin it.B.It was successfully spun by Chuck.C.It was spun far from the pond.D.Chuck failed to spin it himself.39.It can be inferred from the text that ______.A.Chuck had tried to catch Lady EightlegsB.Chuck had difficulty collecting vinesC.Lady Eightlegs was very wiseD.Lady Eightlegs swam well40.What was Lady Eightlegs' attitude towards Chuck in the end?A.Worried. B.Friendly. C.Doubtful. D.Cold.BDo you know what your mind's eye is?It's your imagination.In the book Mind's Eye,a sixteenyearold girl,Courtney,meets an eightyeightyearold lady,Elva,in a nursing home.Courtney is paralyzed (瘫痪) from the waist (腰) down and Elva has Alzheimer's disease,a disease that makes you forget everything.If your closest friends and family come to visit you,you may have no idea of who they are.In the book Elva sometimes thinks Courtney is her sister.This book is about Courtney and Elva taking an imaginary journey to Italy with an old guidebook.Elva wants to take a trip to Italy because she once promised her husband (who's been dead for years) that she would go there.Now she is too old a nd sick,so she decides to go on the journey through her mind's eye.She has an old guidebook on Italy,but she can't read the tiny print.So she invites Courtney to go along on the journey.Courtney isn't willing to do,but she is so bored that she goes along.Courtney seems to be like any other teenager.She likes sleeping till noon!Courtney and Elva are complete strangers in the beginning of the book.They become friends only because Courtney is bored and Elva has nobody to talk to.At first I thought of Courtney as an unattractive teenager,but as the book goes on Courtney becomes much nicer because she learns a lot from Elva.The most important thing she learns is to use her mind's eye.This book sends a good message:you can use your imagination for anything.One thing that I don't like about the book is that it was written completely in dialogue like a play,which I feel makes it more difficult to read.You have to concentrate(集中注意力) harder since there are no paragraphs explaining what's going on.However,I think the author's descriptions give you a very good idea of what the characters are experiencing and I can picture myself there.This book deals with topics like illness and old age,and being alone in the world,which are rather sad.Even so,after finishing the book,I didn't have a feeling of sadness.Instead I realized how your imagination can turn even awful things into something pleasant.That is what makes this book worth reading.41.What do we know about the story in the book Mind's Eye?A.Elva remembers her sister well.B.Courtney can't walk on her own.C.Elva has many friends in the nursing home.D.Courtney and Elva become friends when they first meet.42.What was the author's attitude towards Courtney at first?A.He didn't like her. B.He thought she was nice.C.He found her interesting. D.He felt she was lazy and rude.43.Which of the following does the author NOT like about the book?A.Its sad topics. B.Its descriptions.C.Its main characters. D.Its way of telling the story.44.The author thinks the book is worth reading because it ______.A.teaches us how to take a great trip to ItalyB.shows us that friendship can last foreverC.tells us the importance of imaginationD.warns us of the importance of health45.What can we learn from the text?A.The book is easy for the author to read.B.Both Elva and Courtney like Italy a lot.C.Courtney is active and doesn't like sleeping.D.The author di dn't feel sad after reading the book.Ⅳ.七选五(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)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。
