相声是中国的一种传统艺术形式,它形成于晚清时期,相声能给人们带来笑声,所以受到了很多人们的喜爱。短文中给我们具体介绍了这一艺术形式。

1词义猜测题。根据单词所在的语境 “It is a famous Chinese show in the form(形式) of a dialogue usually between two people.”“它是著名的中国节目,形式通常是两人之间的……”,结合常识可知,相声是两人之间的对话,因此dialogue意为“对话”,故选C

2细节理解题。根据短文第一段 “It came into being in Beijing in the late Qing Dynasty (the mid-19th century).”可知,相声形成于晚清时期,大概在19世纪中期。选项中B选项1850符合文意,故选B

3细节理解题。根据短文第二段 “Modern crosstalk usually has four skills—speaking, imitating(模仿), teasing(逗乐) and singing.”可知,现代相声的四项基本技能是说、学、逗、唱。故选A

4细节理解题。根据短文最后一段 “Nowadays, you can watch it in tea houses and theatres. Of course, you can also listen to it on radio while taking a walk or driving a car. And you can watch it on TV with your families.”可知,现在我们听相声可以在茶馆、剧院、在开车的时候从广播里收听或者在家里看电视,ABC三项都对,故选D

5推理判断题。根据短文第二段 “Some stories come from everyday life, popular ideas and hot news. Some come from history stories”可知,相声素材来自日常生活、流行的一些观念和热点新闻,还有些来自历史故事,B选项符合文意,故选B。根据第一段中 “and it also borrowed from other arts, such as Beijing Opera.”可知A不对;根据第一段的最后 “the crosstalk show just wants to make people laugh.”可知C不对;根据第一段 “It came into being in Beijing in the late Qing Dynasty (the mid-19th century).”可知,相声是在19世纪中期形成的,距今大约160年的历史,没有300年,故D不对。

这篇短文给我们介绍了相声的历史以及发展过程。短文主题明确,内容贴近学生们的日常生活,相声这种艺术形式学生们都比较熟悉,因此在理解上会比较容易。题型是阅读理解,考查了细节理解、词义猜测和推理判断。细节题以考查对文章事实信息的理解为主,答案常可以直接在原文找到。做题时,可依据题目所问,或利用题目中的关键词,在短文中搜索相关信息作答。如第2小题,题目问的是“相声是什么时候形成的”,以come into being为关键词,注意文章中与数字、年代相关的信息即可找到答案。再如第5小题,这是一个判断题,考查学生对文章多处事实信息的理解,做题时,应阅读逐个选项,将每个选项在原文中进行定位、对比,用排除法作答。

【题目】 Do you know there is a connection between music and language? You may not believe it. But recent studies give us the answer: Music can improve certain language abilities in the brain. Now, let's look at two examples.

Recently, researcher Kris has done a research which shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person's hearing ability. In his study, he divided the people into two groups. The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the other group had no musical training. He asked these people to listen to a person talking in a noisy room. As a result, the musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly.

You may wonder why. The answer is that musicians can hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds. Think about violinists. When they play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others’ too. But they must listen closely to what they are playing, and pay no attention to the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to focus on certain sounds, even in a room with lots of nose.

A doctor at Harvard Medical School works with stroke(中风)patients. These people cannot say their name, addresses or other information normally because of their illness. However, they can still sing. He was surprised to find that singing words helped his patients to speak. Why does this work? The doctor isn’t sure. Music seems to make different parts of the brain work, including the damaged(损坏的)parts. This might help patients to use that part of the brain again.

Music can improve concentration(注意力), memory, listening skills and overall language abilities. It can even help sick people get better. Playing an instrument or singing can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp as we get older. Music is not only enjoyable but also good for us in many other ways.

1Musicians can hear better in a noisy room because they_________

A.can focus on certain soundsB.are cleverer than normal people

C.are trained to hear noisesD.have a gift in this

2The underlined word "sharp" probably means “_________"in the last paragraph.

A.quick to reactB.having a thin edge

C.strong or forcefulD.sudden and rapid

3What is the passage mainly about'?

A.Music can improve our hearing abilities.B.The relationship between music and language.

C.Music can keep our brain clear.D.Singing words can help sick people.

【题目】 The view you hold for yourself greatly affects the way you lead your life. It can decide whether you become the person you want to be and whether you achieve the things you value. How does this happen? How can a simple belief have the power to change your psychology(心理) and, as a result, your life?

Believing that your qualities are carved() in stone — the fixed mindset — creates a great need to prove yourself over and over. Some of us are trained in this mindset from an early age. Even as a child, I was focused on being smart, but the fixed mindset was really stamped in by Mrs. Wilson, my sixth-grade teacher. She believed that people’s IQ scores told the whole story of who they were. We were seated around the room in IQ order, and only the highest-IQ students could be trusted to collect homework, or take a note to the principal. She was creating a mindset in which everyone in the class had one important goal-look smart, don’t look stupid.

I’ve seen so many people with this one important goal of proving themselves — in the classroom, in their careers, and in their relationships. Every situation calls for a confirmation of their IQ, personality, or character. Every situation is evaluated(评价): Will I succeed or fail? Will I look smart or stupid? Will I feel like a winner or a loser?

But doesn’t our society value IQ, personality, and character? Isn’t it normal to want these qualities? Yes, but ...

There’s another mindset, the growth mindset, which is based on the belief that your basic qualities are things you can develop through your efforts. Although people may differ in every which way — in their inborn talents, interests, or characters, everyone can change and grow through efforts and experience. Did you know that Darwin and Tolstoy were considered ordinary children? That the photographer Cindy Sherman, who has been on almost every list of the most important artists of the twentieth century, failed her first photography course? That Geraldine Page, one of our greatest actresses, was advised to give it up for lack of talent?

You can see how the belief that valuable qualities can be developed creates a passion(热情) for learning. Why waste time proving how great you are, when you could be getting better? Why hide weaknesses instead of overcoming them? And why seek out the tried and true, instead of experiences that will better you? The passion for improving yourself and sticking to it, even when it’s not going well, is the feature(特征) of the growth mindset. This is the mindset that allows people to achieve success during some of the most challenging times in their lives.

1According to Paragraph 5, the example of Darwin and Tolstoy shows that _________

A.success has nothing to do with natural gifts.

B.it’s difficult to predict one’s future success.

C.achievements can be made through hard work.

D.the valuable qualities can encourage people to learn.

2The author strongly believes that we should _________

A.carry out an honest evaluation of our qualities.

B.see success as the only way to prove IQ or talent.

C.focus on self-development rather than self-proving.

D.believe good things will happen during difficult times.

3The main purpose of the passage is to _________

A.lead people to take the right mindset.

B.advise people to evaluate their mindset.

C.get people to know the influence of mindset.

D.explain the differences between two mindsets.
