Directions: Read the following passage.Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit.

Richard Wagner was a German musician who lived in the mid-19th century.He gained fame by writing opera, a form of performance combining singing, music on instruments, and drama.

Wagner’s life and work have been very controversial(有争议的).While he wrote excellent music, many people think his operas are too dark and serious, lacking tile fun common in operas written before his time.

Wagner, on the other hand, thought the opera of his time was too simple.He wanted to make opera a serious form of art that combined drama and music to tell deep stories that would have a strong effect on the audience.

Some people thought Wagner’s new kind of music was too different from the operas they were used to hearing.Wagner agreed with them.In fact, he didn’t call his works “operas” at all, using instead a German word that means “Musical Festival” or “Musical play”.

While many people today still do not like Wagner’s operas, they cannot deny that Wagner had a lot of influence on opera as a form of art.Wagner invented the tradition of turning off the lights before starting a play.He also was the first person to make the whole audience sit down for an entire play.Today, almost all operas are performed in this manner.

Wagner as a man was even more controversial than Wagner as a writer of music.He hated Jewish people, slept with his friends’ wives, and made many people angry, which we would today think of as evil.Some would say he was a good musician, while others would say that he was a bad musician.But it would be difficult to say he was not an important person in music and in the world.

1.What is the best word that describes Wagner? (no more than one word)

2.What does the underlined word “deep” in Para.3 mean? (no more than 3 words)

3.Why does the author say “Wagner as a man was even more controversial”? (no more than 15 words)

4.List two things that showed Wagner had a lot of influence on opera? (no more than 30 words)

Every day we experience one of the wonders of the world around us without even realizing it.It is not the amazing complexity of television, nor the impressive technology of transport.The universal wonder we share and experience is our ability to make noises with our mouths, and so transmit ideas and thoughts to each other’s minds.This ability comes so naturally that we tend to forget what a miracle (奇迹) it is.

       Obviously, the ability to talk is something that marks humans off from animals.Of course, some animals have powers just as amazing.Birds can fly thousands of miles by observing positions of the stars in the sky in relation to the time of day and year.In Nature’s talent show, humans are a species of animal that have developed their own special act.If we reduce it to basic terms, it’s an ability for communicating information to others, by varying sounds we make as we breathe out.

       Not that we don’t have other powers of communication.Our facial expressions convey our emotions, such as anger, or joy, or disappointment.The way we hold our heads can indicate to others whether we are happy or sad.This is so-called “body language”.Bristling (直立的) fur is an unmistakable warning of attack among many animals.Similarly, the bowed head or drooping tail shows a readiness to take second place in any animal gathering.

       Such a means of communication is a basic mechanism that animals, including human beings, instinctively acquire and display.Is the ability to speak just another sort of instinct? If so, how did human beings acquire this amazing skill? Biologists can readily indicate that particular area of our brain where speech mechanisms function, but this doesn’t tell us how that part of our bodies originated in our biological history.

1.According to the passage, the wonder we take for granted is          

       A.our ability to use language                     B.the miracle of technology

       C.our ability to make noises with mouth   D.the amazing power of nature         

2.What feature of “body language” mentioned in the passage is common to both humans and animals?

       A.Lifting heads when sad.                     B.Keeping long faces when angry.

       C.Bowing heads when willing to obey.    D.Bristling hair when ready to attack.    

3.What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?

       A.Body language is unique to humans.

       B.Animals express emotions just as humans do.

       C.Humans are no different from animals to some degree.

       D.Humans have other powers of communication.

4.This passage is mainly about          

       A.the development of body language

       B.the special role humans play in nature

       C.the difference between humans and animals in language use

       D.the power to convey information to others
