三．配套小练习
Ⅰ 阅读理解
A
I was born with perfect hearing. When I was five, I started getting ear infections but my parents couldn’t afford the treatment. Over time, my hearing dropped to 20 percent, where it is today.
There was always music on in my house in my childhood. I loved listening to Metallica, and Michael Jackson. My dad was a DJ, so he played all music. For my 18th birthday, my dad asked me to deejay at the restaurant he owned. I was hooked. I desired to learn more. I e-mailed DJ Shiftee, a distinguished New York City DJ, when I was 25: “I know you like a challenge. How about teaching a deaf person to deejay ” He wrote back the next day: “Challenge accepted.” He tutored me twice a week for two years, helping me develop correct technique. I practised four hours a day.
Now when I’m performing, muscle memory takes over. When I started, I wouldn’t tell the club managers that I was deaf. I would just show up, introduce myself, and start playing music. At the end of the night, someone would say, “Oh, here’s the check.” And I’d say, “What Oh, I can’t hear.” They were always so astonished. Sometimes I would bring my doctor’s notes because they wouldn’t believe me. It was reassurance that they were giving me opportunities to perform because I was brilliant, not out of sympathy. Eventually people started calling me “that deaf DJ”, and the name stuck.
What fascinates me about deejaying is the creativity. I use software that turns the music into lines of colour on a computer screen. I’m visually hearing the music. The next time you go dancing, cover your ears, and you’ll “see” the music. Music is not all about hearing. I go to elementary schools for the deaf and talk to them about motivation and believing in themselves. I tell them, “Just chase your dreams. I’m a deaf DJ, so why not ”
(　)1.What inspired “my” passion for being a DJ
A.Hearing loss. 　B.“My” father’s influence.
C.Music education. D.Teachers’ guidance.
(　)2.Why did “I” keep “my” deafness private before the performance
A.To surprise the audience.
B.To avoid discrimination.
C.To keep the secret.
D.To show off talent.
(　)3.What does the underlined word “stuck” in Para. 3 probably mean
A.Became established. 　　B.Changed.
C.Became ordinary. 　　D.Faded.
(　)4.Why do “I” love deejaying
A.It strengthens “my” confidence.
B.It improves “my” hearing ability.
C.It enhances “my” physical fitness.
D.It wins “me” reputation and money.
B
Pullman is a superb writer and Seagull is a brilliant communicator. They had a debate after Seagull posted a question on his social media platform: “When you were trying to create an environment for learning, what were your best pieces of classical music to listen to ” He received hundreds of suggestions—and one negative reply, from Pullman: “That’s not what classical music is for. Treat it with respect.”
That did it! Everyone—professional musicians, students, teachers—weighed into the argument, and the majority supported Seagull and were criticizing Pullman.
It’s easy to see why people are annoyed. We all want classical music to be as accessible as possible, especially to the young. If some of them are using Bach or Schubert as a tool to help them study, what’s the problem They may also develop an attachment to classical music.
So is Pullman ridiculous and supercilious by objecting to classical music being used as background music At first sight, his idea seems stuffy and extreme. By suggesting that classical music should be “treated with respect” and not used as background music, Pullman seems to be closing classical music off to millions of people.
It’s worth pointing out, however, that he isn’t the first to express concerns about classical music being devalued by becoming too commonplace in today’s technologically shaped world. In Benjamin Britten’s 1964 speech, the composer expressed exactly the same worries as Pullman. Britten suggested, “The true musical experience demands some preparation, some effort, a journey to a special place, saving up for a ticket, and some homework perhaps.” In short, it demands as much effort from listeners as from composers and performers.
I don’t agree with such an extreme viewpoint, but I do think it touches on a reality. You will never fully grasp the beauty of classical music if you half-hear it only in the background. That doesn’t necessarily matter. Music can be enjoyed on many levels. What Pullman and Britten are really saying is that, in a drive for “accessibility”, we shouldn’t deny the emotional and intellectual complexity underpinning (构成) much classical music.
(　)5.What did Seagull’s posting result in
A.Great admiration for Seagull.
B.Public criticism of classical music.
C.A discussion about learning environments.
D.An argument over the role of classical music.
(　)6.What does the underlined word “supercilious” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A.Self-important. B.Open-minded.
C.Impatient. D.Considerate.
(　)7.Why is the Benjamin Britten’s 1964 speech mentioned
A.To show his affection for classical music.
B.To introduce young people to classical music.
C.To demonstrate classical music is demanding.
D.To support Pullman’s idea about classical music.
(　)8.Which word best describes the author’s attitude to Pullman’s idea
A.Favourable. B.Doubtful.
C.Objective. D.Uninterested.
●Ⅱ 阅读七选五
Music is arguably the most life-enriching academic subject. 1.　　　　. It can bring lots of important benefits to your child’s education, many of which you may not have considered before.
Increase language capabilities
Music and language have a far-reaching relationship. Musical training stimulates the same part of the brain that deals with understanding language. Children who have some exposure to musical education will, therefore, have a greater understanding of tones and how different phrases are arranged. 2.　　　　.
Improve hand-eye coordination (协调)
3.　　　　. It takes considerable hand-eye coordination to learn almost any instrument. Those who master their craft are blessed with a unique skill; it’s something that can be applied to other areas of general life. It can also help elsewhere in education, as writing skills and art require the hands and eyes to work together.
4.　　　
Music is a great way for your child to meet new people and create lasting friendships. If they decide to take up music as an extracurricular (课外的) activity, they’ll be bonding with like-minded children who share their passion. In a time when children are increasingly interested in communicating online and focusing on digital skills, music is a refreshing return to face-to-face contact.
Bring about a sense of achievement
When your child does achieve a musical goal, they get the incredible satisfaction that comes from working hard to obtain something. 5.　　　　. Self-trust is one of the most valuable skills a child can have and music is one of the best ways to allow it to develop in your child.
A.Develop social skills
B.Encourage teamwork
C.In that sense, music is a great confidence builder
D.Hand-eye coordination is important in many sports
E.Learning an instrument to a high level is no easy task
F.It activates emotional responses and creativity like no other
G.It can be incredibly useful if your child is learning a second language

ⅠA
【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了作为失聪者的作者在音乐道路上的成长历程,同时也传达了“只要追逐梦想,任何困难都不能阻挡”以及“音乐不仅仅是听觉的艺术”的信念。
1.B　细节理解题。根据第二段中“My dad was a DJ, so he played all music. For my 18th birthday, my dad asked me to deejay at the restaurant he owned. I was hooked. I desired to learn more.”可知,父亲的影响激发了作者对DJ的热情。故选B项。

3.A　词义猜测题。根据第三段中“It was reassurance that they were giving me opportunities to perform because I was brilliant, not out of sympathy. Eventually people started calling me ‘that deaf DJ’, and the name stuck.”可知,最终人们开始称呼作者为“那个聋DJ”,这个名字被大家采用。故stuck意为“被接受,被众人采用”,即became established。故选A项。

6.A　词义猜测题。根据前文ridiculous and可知,supercilious和ridiculous (荒谬的)并列,为贬义词;根据后文“At first sight, his idea seems stuffy and extreme. By suggesting that classical music should be ‘treated with respect’ and not used as background music, Pullman seems to be closing classical music off to millions of people.”可知,普尔曼认为应该尊重古典音乐,由此推知supercilious为“傲慢的”之意,和A项意思相近。故选A项。
7.D　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“It’s worth pointing out, however, that he isn’t the first to express concerns about classical music being devalued by becoming too commonplace in today’s technologically shaped world…In short, it demands as much effort from listeners as from composers and performers.”可知,作者提到本杰明·布里顿1964年的演讲是为了支持普尔曼对古典音乐的看法。故选D项。
8.C　推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知,作者既不同意普尔曼极端的观点,但是也不认为将古典音乐作为背景音乐是合适的,所以他的态度是客观的。故选C项。
