(Text 10)
Visitors to Britain often say that English food isn’t very good.But they do not really know what they are talking about because they haven’t had the chance to eat real English food.Most of the restaurants in large towns in Britain are owned by foreigners and serve foreign food.When visitors are invited to eat in an English home，their hosts often feel they must offer them some special or foreign food.
However，some people do know English food.They think that it can be really good.On the other hand，it is true to say that sometimes it is terrible.Part of the problem is that in most big towns and cities in England the British are not really interested in food.They don’t spend much time cooking really good meals.They prefer food that is simple and easy to cook，or ready prepared food that only needs heating before eating.You can find the best English food in the countryside，away from large towns.Life is slower and people are not in such a hurry in the countryside.However，most visitors choose to visit London.They come because they are interested in shopping and sightseeing.They don’t come for food，so how can they know the real English food?
第二部分：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)
阅读下列短文，从各题所给的4个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。
A
On a dark winter day in Russia in 1896，Sergei Prokofiev sat by a piano next to his mother.She was helping him compose (作曲) his first piece of music.Sergei was only five years old.
He had overheard his parents discussing a terrible famine (饥荒) in India.The picture Sergei had of those hungry people in his mind caused him to write a story，in the form of musical notes.Sergei could not read music，so he picked out a tune on the piano keys，and his mother recorded the notes.Sergei titled it “Indian Gallop”．
Sergei’s mother began giving him piano lessons for 20 minutes a day，and his ability grew quickly.She had a great love for music，too，and Sergei often lay awake in bed at night and listened to her play the piano.
Sergei’s parents found a famous music teacher for him.The teacher shouted at Sergei when he didn’t practice reading and playing music.Sergei later wrote，“I wanted to compose great musical plays，and instead I was given all sorts of boring tasks.” Yet he persisted_with his studies and grew up to be a great composer.
In 1936 a children’s theater asked Sergei to write music that would teach children about different instruments.He was happy and wrote the piece in a week，calling it Peter and the Wolf.
Sergei’s Peter and the Wolf was enjoyed by children as well as adults.The first time Sergei played the piece on the piano，the children listening to it loved it so much that they made him play the ending three extra times.He was excited.
Today Sergei Prokofiev is remembered not only for his contributions (贡献) to classical music，but also for his sense of fun.

I love listening to music and there’s never been a better time to be a music fan.With so many ways to get music，we can listen to it any way we want，wherever we want.Although some fans still like to use CD players，the most popular way to listen to music nowadays is by either downloading (下载) or streaming (在线试听)．
As Internet connections got better，more MP3s were downloaded and shared.But the sound quality of these MP3s is not so good when compared to tapes or CDs.However，new generations (代) of music fans have grown used to this cheapened sound quality and don’t mind.
Streaming technology has made it even easier to listen to your favorite music.For a monthly price of about $10 (there are also free services with advertisements)，users can listen to an endless amount of music from smartphones，computers and television sets.
Unfortunately，streaming is not without its downsides.Because all of the music is provided online，a strong Internet connection is necessary.And although it may seem like the Internet is available everywhere，there may be situations where you don’t get connected.Agreements with music companies and artists also need to be reached before streaming services are allowed to host their music.
Whether you choose to download or stream music，the artist does not make much money.The low payment from downloading and streaming music has also led to the continuing increase in concert ticket prices.And we can only expect these prices to increase greatly in the future.
Much as I would like to have all my music for free，I realize that it will kill the industry I’ve enjoyed for most of my life.I can’t say for certain which is better—downloading or streaming—but I do know how I can do my little part to help musicians continue making great music.Rather than focus on (关注) one or the other，I’m going to continue doing what I’ve been doing since I first discovered music：listen to it any way I can.
语篇解读 本文是议论文。文章主要讨论了两种不同的听音乐的方式。
25．What are new groups of music fans’ attitudes towards MP3s?
A．They don’t care how they get them.
B．They refuse to get them online.
C．They show no interest in them.
D．They are satisfied with them.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段的new generations of music fans have grown used to this cheapened sound quality and don’t mind可知。
答案： D
26．One of the disadvantages of streaming lies in that________.
A．there is a possibility of disconnection
B．there isn’t much choice in the music
C．its music is of very poor quality
D．one has to pay for it
解析： 推理判断题。根据第四段介绍在线试听受到网络连接和艺人及其公司协议的影响可知，在线试听的不足之处在于可能会有突发状况导致不能聆听音乐。
答案： A
27．What will the author probably do in the future?
A．Stop downloading or streaming music.
B．Listen to music in different ways.
C．Help musicians make music.
D．Try to choose free music.
解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段的Rather than focus on one or the other...listen to it any way I can可知，作者在今后不会只是下载或在线试听音乐，也会通过其它方式来听他喜欢的音乐。
答案： B
28．The text is probably written to________.
A．describe the difficult situation of the music industry
B．explain the influence of the Internet on music
C．discuss two ways of listening to music
D．compare two different music types
解析： 写作目的题。文章主要讨论了当下最流行的两种不同的听音乐的方式，故C项符合题意。
答案： C
C
“I really like dancing，” says 11yearold Jonathan Rosario of New York City.“That’s what I want to be when I grow up—a dancer.”
Every Saturday，Jonathan and hundreds of other children from New York City public schools take classes at National Dance Institute (NDI)．The nonprofit (非营利的) organization in Upper Manhattan was founded in 1976 by dancing star Jacquesd’ Amboise，who grew up in a tough (充满犯罪与暴力的) neighborhood.It has been teaching school children how to dance through weekly classes for over 30 years.NDI also supports programs in New York City public schools，helping thousands of children to express themselves creatively.
On a recent visit to NDI，I watched as Jonathan and other students practiced for an upcoming performance.I also spoke with d’Amboise about the influence that dance has had on his life and why he started a program for children.
“Dance changed me，” he said，“and I’d like to see other young people—especially boys—have the arts in their life，using dance as a window.”
For d’Amboise，dancing is like competitive sports.Ice hockey (冰球) players，for example，“learn to compete as a single person and as a team，” he said.“They learn how to win or lose and accept either result.And they develop skills and unity (团结) by being on a team.” The same is true for dancers.
Jonathan says that Saturdays at NDI are all about energy and fun.But dancing also requires great effort.“Work hard，” he advises other young people，“and you’ll make it.”

答案： D
31．D’Amboise compared dancing with ice hockey to show that________.
A．both dancing and ice hockey are competitive
B．results come first for both dancers and players

答案： C
32．In Jonathan’s opinion，dancing is ________.
A．just plain fun
B．easier than it looks
C．a tiring activity nobody really likes

(Text 10)
Visitors to Britain often say that English food isn’t very good.But they do not really know what they are talking about because they haven’t had the chance to eat real English food.Most of the restaurants in large towns in Britain are owned by foreigners and serve foreign food.When visitors are invited to eat in an English home，their hosts often feel they must offer them some special or foreign food.
However，some people do know English food.They think that it can be really good.On the other hand，it is true to say that sometimes it is terrible.Part of the problem is that in most big towns and cities in England the British are not really interested in food.They don’t spend much time cooking really good meals.They prefer food that is simple and easy to cook，or ready prepared food that only needs heating before eating.You can find the best English food in the countryside，away from large towns.Life is slower and people are not in such a hurry in the countryside.However，most visitors choose to visit London.They come because they are interested in shopping and sightseeing.They don’t come for food，so how can they know the real English food?
第二部分：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)
阅读下列短文，从各题所给的4个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。
A
On a dark winter day in Russia in 1896，Sergei Prokofiev sat by a piano next to his mother.She was helping him compose (作曲) his first piece of music.Sergei was only five years old.
He had overheard his parents discussing a terrible famine (饥荒) in India.The picture Sergei had of those hungry people in his mind caused him to write a story，in the form of musical notes.Sergei could not read music，so he picked out a tune on the piano keys，and his mother recorded the notes.Sergei titled it “Indian Gallop”．
Sergei’s mother began giving him piano lessons for 20 minutes a day，and his ability grew quickly.She had a great love for music，too，and Sergei often lay awake in bed at night and listened to her play the piano.
Sergei’s parents found a famous music teacher for him.The teacher shouted at Sergei when he didn’t practice reading and playing music.Sergei later wrote，“I wanted to compose great musical plays，and instead I was given all sorts of boring tasks.” Yet he persisted_with his studies and grew up to be a great composer.
In 1936 a children’s theater asked Sergei to write music that would teach children about different instruments.He was happy and wrote the piece in a week，calling it Peter and the Wolf.
Sergei’s Peter and the Wolf was enjoyed by children as well as adults.The first time Sergei played the piece on the piano，the children listening to it loved it so much that they made him play the ending three extra times.He was excited.
Today Sergei Prokofiev is remembered not only for his contributions (贡献) to classical music，but also for his sense of fun.

C．was written to teach children about the piano

I love listening to music and there’s never been a better time to be a music fan.With so many ways to get music，we can listen to it any way we want，wherever we want.Although some fans still like to use CD players，the most popular way to listen to music nowadays is by either downloading (下载) or streaming (在线试听)．
As Internet connections got better，more MP3s were downloaded and shared.But the sound quality of these MP3s is not so good when compared to tapes or CDs.However，new generations (代) of music fans have grown used to this cheapened sound quality and don’t mind.
Streaming technology has made it even easier to listen to your favorite music.For a monthly price of about $10 (there are also free services with advertisements)，users can listen to an endless amount of music from smartphones，computers and television sets.
Unfortunately，streaming is not without its downsides.Because all of the music is provided online，a strong Internet connection is necessary.And although it may seem like the Internet is available everywhere，there may be situations where you don’t get connected.Agreements with music companies and artists also need to be reached before streaming services are allowed to host their music.
Whether you choose to download or stream music，the artist does not make much money.The low payment from downloading and streaming music has also led to the continuing increase in concert ticket prices.And we can only expect these prices to increase greatly in the future.
Much as I would like to have all my music for free，I realize that it will kill the industry I’ve enjoyed for most of my life.I can’t say for certain which is better—downloading or streaming—but I do know how I can do my little part to help musicians continue making great music.Rather than focus on (关注) one or the other，I’m going to continue doing what I’ve been doing since I first discovered music：listen to it any way I can.
语篇解读 本文是议论文。文章主要讨论了两种不同的听音乐的方式。
25．What are new groups of music fans’ attitudes towards MP3s?
A．They don’t care how they get them.
B．They refuse to get them online.
C．They show no interest in them.
D．They are satisfied with them.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段的new generations of music fans have grown used to this cheapened sound quality and don’t mind可知。
答案： D
26．One of the disadvantages of streaming lies in that________.
A．there is a possibility of disconnection
B．there isn’t much choice in the music
C．its music is of very poor quality
D．one has to pay for it
解析： 推理判断题。根据第四段介绍在线试听受到网络连接和艺人及其公司协议的影响可知，在线试听的不足之处在于可能会有突发状况导致不能聆听音乐。
答案： A
27．What will the author probably do in the future?
A．Stop downloading or streaming music.
B．Listen to music in different ways.
C．Help musicians make music.
D．Try to choose free music.
解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段的Rather than focus on one or the other...listen to it any way I can可知，作者在今后不会只是下载或在线试听音乐，也会通过其它方式来听他喜欢的音乐。
答案： B
28．The text is probably written to________.
A．describe the difficult situation of the music industry
B．explain the influence of the Internet on music
C．discuss two ways of listening to music
D．compare two different music types
解析： 写作目的题。文章主要讨论了当下最流行的两种不同的听音乐的方式，故C项符合题意。
答案： C
C
“I really like dancing，” says 11yearold Jonathan Rosario of New York City.“That’s what I want to be when I grow up—a dancer.”
Every Saturday，Jonathan and hundreds of other children from New York City public schools take classes at National Dance Institute (NDI)．The nonprofit (非营利的) organization in Upper Manhattan was founded in 1976 by dancing star Jacquesd’ Amboise，who grew up in a tough (充满犯罪与暴力的) neighborhood.It has been teaching school children how to dance through weekly classes for over 30 years.NDI also supports programs in New York City public schools，helping thousands of children to express themselves creatively.
On a recent visit to NDI，I watched as Jonathan and other students practiced for an upcoming performance.I also spoke with d’Amboise about the influence that dance has had on his life and why he started a program for children.
“Dance changed me，” he said，“and I’d like to see other young people—especially boys—have the arts in their life，using dance as a window.”
For d’Amboise，dancing is like competitive sports.Ice hockey (冰球) players，for example，“learn to compete as a single person and as a team，” he said.“They learn how to win or lose and accept either result.And they develop skills and unity (团结) by being on a team.” The same is true for dancers.
Jonathan says that Saturdays at NDI are all about energy and fun.But dancing also requires great effort.“Work hard，” he advises other young people，“and you’ll make it.”

C．many young people were changed through dancing
D．the arts were an important part of children’s education
解析： 推理判断题。根据第四段中的I’d like to see other young people...have the arts in their life，using dance as a windown可知，d’Amboise在舞蹈改变了他自己后认识到表演艺术对于其他孩子的重要性，因此才创建了NDI这个机构。
答案： D
31．D’Amboise compared dancing with ice hockey to show that________.
A．both dancing and ice hockey are competitive
B．results come first for both dancers and players
C．both skills and teamwork are important in dancing
D．victory and loss are common for both dancers and players
解析： 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的Ice hockey players...learn to compete as a single person and as a team，they develop skills and unity和The same is true for dancers可知，d’Amboise将舞蹈和冰球相比是为了说明舞蹈和冰球一样，不仅需要个人技能的发展也需要团队合作精神。
答案： C
32．In Jonathan’s opinion，dancing is ________.
A．just plain fun
B．easier than it looks
C．a tiring activity nobody really likes
D．something one can achieve through hard work
解析： 细节理解题。根据最后一段中Jonathan说的dancing also requires great effort和Work hard...and you’ll make it可知，他认为只要努力付出，人们就可以在舞蹈上有所成就。
