2.The first attempt of even the most talented artists,musicians,and writers is seldom a masterpiece,If you consider your drafts as dress rehearsals (彩排),or tryouts,revising will seem a natural part of the writing (50)process.
   What is the purpose of the dress rehearsals and the out-of-town previews that many Broadway shows go through?The answer is adding,deleting,replacing,reordering,(51)in other wordsrevising.Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical Phantom of the Opera underwent such a process.
    When Lloyd Webber began writing in 1984,he had in mind a funny,exciting production.However,when Phantom opened in London in 1986,the audience saw a moving psychological love story set to music.The musical had. (52)undergoneseveral revisions due,in part,to problems with costuming and makeup (戏服和化妆).For instance,Lloyd Webber(53)rewrote some of the music because the Phantom's makeup prevented the actor from singing certain sounds.
    When you revise,you change aspects of your work in (54)responseto your evolving purpose,or  to include (55)freshideas or newly discovered information.
    Revision is not just an afterthought that gets only as much time as you have at the end of an assignment. (56)Instead,it is a major stage of the writing process,and writers revise every step of the way.Even your decision to (57)switch.topics while prewriting is a type of revising.However.don't make the mistake of skipping the revision stage that follows (58)drafting.Always make time to become your own (59)audienceand view your dress rehearsal,so to speak.Reviewing your work in this way can give you (60)valuablenew ideas.
   Revising involves (61)assessingthe effectiveness and appropriateness of  all aspects of your writing,making your purpose more clearly,and refocusing or developing the facts and ideas you present.When you revise,ask yourself the following questions,keeping in mind the audience for whom you are writing:Is my main idea or purpose (62)clearthroughout my draft?Do I ever lose sight of my purpose?Have I given my readers all of the (63)information  that is,facts,opinions,
inferences--that they need in order to understand my main idea?Finally,have I included too many (64)unnecessary details that may confuse readers?

分析 本文是一篇议论文,文章讲叙了作品修改的目的和途径.修改是作品写作过程中非常重要且必须的步骤.文章以安德鲁劳埃德韦伯的作品为例,作品搬上舞台前都要经历很多的修改和变化,对作品的修订主要是由于生成性的目标、新鲜的思想和新的发现.修改作品还涉及对作品有效性和准确性的评估,思考一些问题:主题思想或目的有没有表达清楚,细节信息有无处理到位.

解答 50.C  考查名词辨析.根据下文的"AndrewLloyd Webber's musical Phantom of the Opera underwent such a process."和"However.don't make the mistake of skipping the revision stage"可知,.名词technique(技术)、style(风格)、career(事业、生涯)都不符题意.故选C.
51.D  考查介词短语辨析.前面adding,deleting,replacing,reordering都是revising的方面,所以revising和这些名词同义;介词短语inother words表示"换句话说".介词短语inparticular(尤其、特别表强调)、as a result(因此,表结果)、forexample(例如,表举例说明)都不符题意.故选D.
52.A  考查动词辨析.动词skip(跳远)、reject(拒绝、抵制)replace(取代)都不符题意.人们观看的是完美的表演,但表演之前作品经历了(undergo)多次修改,与上段的"AndrewLloyd Webber's musical Phantom of the Opera underwent such a process."对应.故选A.
53.A  考查动词辨析.动词release(释放、赦免、发行)、record(记录、录音)、reserve(保留、预订)都不符题意.动词rewrite表示"重写、修改",与动词revise同义,与本篇文话题相关.故选A..
54.B  考查介词短语辨析.介词短语inaddition to表示"而且、除…之外还有",inopposition to表示"与…的意见相反",incontrast to表示"与…形成对比",都与本题不符.inresponse to(作为对…的反应)在本句表示"你修改作品是对你想改进作品目的一种回应",故选B.
55.D  考查形容词辨析.freshideas 与后面的newly discovered information对应.故选D.
56.B  考查副词辨析.副词moreover(而且)类似与butalso表递进含义,与前面句not just(only)呼应.副词however(然而,表转折关系)、instead(作为替代、反而,表相反含义)、therefore(因此,表原因)都不符题意.故选B.
57.B  考查动词辨析. switch topics(变换标题)属于修改作品的一部分.动词discuss(讨论)、exhaust(汲干、使筋疲力尽)、cover(覆盖、包含)都不符题意.故选B.
58.D  考查动名词辨析.名词drafting(起草)、rearranging(重新安排)、performing(表演)都与题意不符.名词training.(培训)在本句表示"排练",与上文dressrehearsals/tryouts同义.故选D.
59.C  考查名词辨析.名词audience(观众)与下句viewyour dress rehearsal对应.名词director(导演)、master(主人、大师)、visitor(来访者)都与题意不符.故选C..
60.B  考查形容词辨析.形容词valuable表示"做自己作品的观众能给你有价值的新信息".形容词personal(个人的)、basic(基本的)、delicate(娇贵的、纤弱的、精美的)都与题意不符.故选B.
61.A  考查动词辨析.根据语境可知,动词mix在本句表示"修改就是把作品所有方面的有效性和适当性融合在一起".故选A.
62.D   考查形容词辨析.形容词clear在本句表示"我的文章大意或写作意图是否清晰",与下文confusereaders对应.形容词amazing(令人惊讶的)、bright(明亮的、聪明的)、unique(独特的)都与题意不符.故选D.
63.C  考查名词辨析.后句名称facts、opinions、inferences都属于information,与上句newlydiscovered information对应.故选C.
64.A  考查形容词辨析.形容词unnecessarydetails表示"多余的信息"反而使读者困惑、误导读者.形容词uninteresting(单调的、乏味的)、concrete(具体的)、final(最终的、决定性的)都与题意不符.故选A.

14.Three Boys and a Dad
Brad closed the door slowly as Sue left home to visit her mother.Expecting a whole day to relax,he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favourite TV talk show on his first day off in months."This will be like a walk in the park,"he'd told his wife."I'll look after the kids,and you can go visit your mom."
Things started well,but just after eight o'clock,his three little"good kids"-Mike,Randy,and Alex-came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted"breakfast,daddy."When food had not appeared within thirty seconds,Randy began using his spoon on Alex's head as if it were a drum.Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat(节拍).Mike chanted"Where's my toast,where's my toast"in the background.Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.
Life became worse after breakfast.Mike wore Randy's underwear on his head.Randy locked himself in the bathroom,while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants.Nobody could find clean socks,although they were before their very eyes.Someone named"Not Me"had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes.Brad knew the talk show had already started.
By ten o'clock,things were out of control.Alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter.Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his colour pencils.Randy,thankfully,appeared to be reading quietly in the family room,but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands.Brad realised that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.
At exactly 11:17,Brad called the daycare centre (日托所)."I suddenly have to go into work and my wife's away.Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes?"The answer was obviously"yes"because Brad was smiling.

49.When his wife left home.Brad expected toC.
A.go out for a walk in the park
B.watch TV talk show with his children
C.enjoy his first day off work

A.Drawing on the wall                 
B.Eating apple jam
C.Feeding the fish.
D.Reading in a room
51.Why did Brad ask the daycare centre for help?C
A.Because he wanted to clean up his house.
B.Because he suddenly had to go to his office
C.Because he found it hard to manage his boys home.
D.Because he had to take his wife back
