nsformintobutterfliesandflyawaytobetogetherforever.[句式分析]此句是主從復(fù)合句。tellingushowthecoupletransformintobutterfliesandflyawaytobetogetherforever是現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語。howthecoupletransformintobutterfliesandflyawaytobetogetherforever為賓語從句，作tell的賓語。[自主翻譯]最后，在最激昂的部分，樂曲轉(zhuǎn)而柔緩，以凄美的曲調(diào)收尾，它告訴我們，這對情侶化蝶而去，永世不再分離。5．ObviouslyIdon’tknowwhatit’strulyliketogrowupinruralAmerica，butthemastersofcountrymusic，likeJohnDenver，canmakeyoufeellikeyou’rethere.[句式分析]本句為主從復(fù)合句。whatit’strulyliketogrowupinruralAmerica為賓語從句。makesbdosth意為“讓某人做某事”。[自主翻譯]我顯然不知道在美國鄉(xiāng)村長大究竟是什么樣子，但是鄉(xiāng)村音樂的大師們，比如約翰·丹佛，能讓你覺得身臨其境。Ⅰ.閱讀理解A(2023·山東煙臺高二上期中)ArticleContest—TeensMakingaDifference!Nomatteryourageorwhatyourlifeis，youcanalwaysmakeadifference.TeenInkknowsthis，andsodoesNatalieSilverstein—authorofSimpleActs：TheBusyTeen’sGuidetoMakingaDifference!Forthiscontest，wewanttoknowwhatsimpleactsyou’vedonetomakeadifference!Pleaseclickhereforonlineregistration.Followallrulescarefullytopreventdisqualification.Rules：Youmustbeateen(aged13－19)withaTeenInkaccounttoenter.Submissions(提交)mustrelatetothetopic(TeensMakingaDifference)．Articlesmustbebetween250－350words.Deadline：December31thisyearGuidelinesandDetails：There’snosizelimittoanactofkindness—itdoesn’tmatterhowbigorsmallyouractofkindnessis，wewanttohearaboutit!Thereisnolimittothenumberofpiecesyoucansubmit.HowtoSubmit：Submitentriesthroughourwebsite.Otherformsofsubmissionwillnotbeaccepted.AllentriessubmittedtoTeenInkareautomatically(自動)consideredforthecontest.Mustincludethewords“ArticleContest”inyoursubmission’stags(標(biāo)簽)andtitle.Prizes：WinnerandhonorablementionswillhavetheirarticlespublishedinTeenInkmagazine.OverallwinnerwillreceiveacopyofNatalieSilverstein’sbook，SimpleActs：TheBusyTeen’sGuidetoMakingaDifferenceanda$25Amazongiftcard.語篇解讀這是一篇應(yīng)用文。文章講述了參加《青少年與眾不同！》文章競賽的須知、規(guī)則、報(bào)名截止期限等信息。1．Whereisthistextprobablytakenfrom?A．Aguidebook.B．Awebpage.C．Abookreview.D．Anewsreport.答案B解析文章出處題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句“Pleaseclickhereforonlineregistration.”可知，文章應(yīng)是來自一個(gè)網(wǎng)頁上的內(nèi)容。故選B。2．Whichofthefollowingwillresultindisqualification?A．Mailingyourentry.B．Writinga320-wordarticle.C．Submitting2entries.D．UploadingyourentryonNovember28.答案A解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“HowtoSubmit”部分中“Submitentriesthroughourwebsite.Otherformsofsubmissionwillnotbeaccepted.”可知，提交作品僅限于在網(wǎng)站提交，其他方式都不被接受。故選A。3．Whatistheprizeforeachhonorablementionwinner?A．They’llgetagiftcard.B．They’llbepresentedwithabook.C．Theirarticleswillappearinamagazine.D．TheirworkswillberecommendedbyNatalieSilverstein.答案C解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中“WinnerandhonorablementionswillhavetheirarticlespublishedinTeenInkmagazine.”可知，榮譽(yù)獎得主的作品將登載在《青少年墨水》雜志上。故選C。BMusicisoftenthoughtofas“easy”or“playtime”，butit’snotthatatall.Musicplaysaveryimportantpartinoureducation.Studentswholearnmusiclearnalotofmusichistoryatschool.Thisincludes“modes(調(diào)式)”，whichwereusedinsomespecialoccasionsduringthedevelopmentofmusic.Theyarestillusedtoday.Studentslearnaboutthehistoricaleventsthatweretakingplacewhenthemusictheyplaywaswritten.Theylearnwhatthemusicwasusedfor.Somuchofourcultureisinmusicandhasbeenforcenturies.Musicalsohelpswithscience.Studentsusesciencetohelpthemdiscoverwhatsoundsgoodtogetherandwhatdoesn’t.Studentsalsoneedsciencetounderstandsomethingcalledthe“overtoneseries”，whichisabouthowmusicisproducedbyvibration(顫動)andwhy.Studentslearnalotaboutlanguages.Manysongsarewritteninotherlanguages，includingancientones.Studentsmustlearntotranslatetheseworkstounderstandwhattheyaresingingabout.Somesongsarefamouspoemsorshortworkssettomusic.Studentslearnahugeamountofcoordination(協(xié)調(diào))throughmusic，sopartsofthebodycanworkbettertogether.Studentsmustusefinemotorskillsinordertoplayaninstrument.Singersandplayersmustlearnbreathcontrolandbeingoodshapetoplay.Studentslearnaboutart.Somefamouspieceswerewrittenaboutimportantworksofart，andstudentslearnabouttheartistsandstylesasthey’replayingthemusic.Musiceducationalsobringshigherthinkingtoourchildren.Itallowsthemtothinkaboutcomplexpatterns(HowcanImakemypartsoundbetter？Howdothismusicandthesedifferentpartsfittogether？)．Studentshavetoknowabsolutely(完全地)whateveryothermusiciandoesatalltimes.Inthatway，itdevelopsteamwork.Asonecansee，musicisveryimportanttoeducationbesidesbringingusfun.語篇解讀本文是一篇說明文。文章重點(diǎn)說明了音樂對各門學(xué)科學(xué)習(xí)的幫助，表明音樂教育的重要性。4．LearningmusicishelpfultothefollowingsubjectsEXCEPT.A．science B．languageC．politics D．history答案C解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第二段說明音樂在歷史學(xué)科上的幫助；第三段說明其在自然科學(xué)方面的幫助；第四段說明其在語言方面的幫助。文中沒有提到政治，故選C。5．Studentswholearnmusichavetotranslatesongs.A．becausetheyarelearningthelanguageB．becausetheymustunderstandwhattheyaresingingaboutC．becausethesongsareancientonesD．becausetheyarefamouspoems答案B解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第三句“學(xué)生們一定要把這些作品翻譯過來，因?yàn)樗麄冃枰斫馑麄兯膬?nèi)容”可知選B。6．WhichofthefollowingisNOTtrueaccordingtothepassage?A．Modesarestillusedinmodernmusic.B．Differentkindsofmusicshowdifferentcultures.C．It’seasierforathletestolearntoplayaninstrument.D．Agoodmusicianshouldknowtheimportanceofteamwork.答案C解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。文中沒有提到運(yùn)動員與學(xué)習(xí)樂器之間的關(guān)系，故C項(xiàng)是不正確的。7．Whatisthemainideaofthepassage?A．Theimportanceofmusic.B．Theimportanceofmusiceducation.C．Waystolearnmusicwell.D．Skillsthatmusicstudentsshouldhave.答案B解析主旨大意題。全文重點(diǎn)說明了音樂對各門學(xué)科學(xué)習(xí)的幫助，故B項(xiàng)“音樂教育的重要性”切題，故選B。CThemeaningofsilencevariesamongculturalgroups.Silencesmaybethoughtful，ortheymaybeemptywhenapersonhasnothingtosay.Asilenceinaconversationmayalsoshowstubbornness，unease，orworry.Silencemaybeviewedbysomeculturalgroupsasextremelyuncomfortable；thereforeattemptsmaybemadetofilleverygap(間隙)withconversation.Personsinotherculturalgroupsvaluesilenceandviewitasnecessaryforunderstandingaperson’sneeds.ManyNativeAmericansvaluesilenceandfeelitisabasicpartofcommunicatingamongpeople，justassometraditionalChineseandThaipersonsdo.Therefore，whenapersonfromoneoftheseculturesisspeakingandsuddenlystops，whatmaybeimplied(暗示)isthatthepersonwantsthelistenertoconsiderwhathasbeensaidbeforecontinuing.Inthesecultures，silenceisacallforreflection.Otherculturesmayusesilenceinotherways，particularlywhendealingwithconflictsamongpeopleorinrelationshipsofpeoplewithdifferentamountsofpower.Forexample，Russian，F(xiàn)rench，andSpanishpersonsmayusesilencetoshowagreementbetweenpartiesaboutthetopicunderdiscussion.However，Mexicansmayusesilencewheninstructionsaregivenbyapersoninauthorityratherthanberudetothatpersonbyarguingwithhimorher.Instillanotheruse，personsinAsianculturesmayviewsilenceasasignofrespect，particularlytoanelderorapersoninauthority.Nursesandothercare-giversneedtobeawareofthepossiblemeaningsofsilencewhentheycomeacrossthepersonalanxietytheirpatientsmaybeexperiencing.Nursesshouldrecognizetheirownpersonalandculturalconstructionofsilencesothatapatient’ssilenceisnotinterruptedtooearlyorallowedtogoonunnecessarily.Anursewhounderstandsthehealing(治愈)valueofsilencecanusethisunderstandingtoassistinthecareofpatientsfromtheirownandfromothercultures.eq\x(語篇解讀本文是一篇說明文，主要介紹了“沉默”在不同文化背景下的不同內(nèi)涵。)8．Whatdoestheauthorsayaboutsilenceinconversations?A．Itimpliesanger.B．Itpromotesfriendship.C．Itisculture-specific.D．Itiscontent-based.答案C解析推理判斷題。由第一段第一句及下文給出的“沉默”在不同文化中不同含義的例子可知，作者認(rèn)為不同文化對于沉默的解讀是有很大差異的，即它與特定的文化有關(guān)。因此答案為C。9．Whichofthefollowingpeoplemightregardsilenceasacallforcarefulthought?A．TheChinese. B．TheFrench.C．TheMexicans. D．TheRussians.答案A解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段可知，許多印第安人珍視沉默，認(rèn)為這是人與人之間交流的基本組成部分，就像一些傳統(tǒng)的中國人和泰國人一樣。因此，當(dāng)一個(gè)來自其中一種文化的人說話突然停下來時(shí)，這暗示說話者想要傾聽者在繼續(xù)之前思考一下所說過的話。所以中國人認(rèn)為談話時(shí)突然沉默是為了讓傾聽者思考。故選A項(xiàng)。10．Whatdoestheauthoradvisenursestodoaboutsilence?A．Letitcontinueasthepatientpleases.B．Breakitwhiletreatingpatients.C．Evaluateitsharmtopatients.D．Makeuseofitshealingeffects.答案D解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一段最后一句“Anursewhounderstandsthehealing(治愈)valueofsilencecanusethisunderstandingtoassistinthecareofpatients”可知，作者建議護(hù)士利用沉默來關(guān)愛病人。故選D。11．Whatmaybethebesttitleforthetext?A．SoundandSilenceB．WhatItMeanstoBeSilentC．SilencetoNativeAmericansD．SpeechIsSilver；SilenceIsGold答案B解析標(biāo)題歸納題。全文自始至終都是圍繞“沉默”而展開，論述其在不同文化中的含義及影響。因此答案為B。值得注意的是D項(xiàng)(雄辯是銀，沉默是金)，該選項(xiàng)迷惑性較大，但文章并未涉及前半句的內(nèi)容，故D項(xiàng)不適合作文章標(biāo)題。Ⅱ.七選五ImprovetheCultureofReadinginSchoolsAsaformofstudentsstudyingatschool，ImustadmitthatwehavealongwaytogotomakeMalaysiaareadingnation.Atschools，Ihavefoundthatmoststudentsonlyfocusonstudyingandpreparingforimportantexaminations.1Althoughtheministryofeducationhadintroducedtheliteraturecomponentatthesecondarylevel，thestandardofreadingleavesmuchtobedesired.Thus，Iproposethatschoolsarrangemoretimeforreadingbooks，especiallynon-academicbookssuchasnovelsandshortstorieswhichhaveliteraryvaluesandmerits.2Theyshouldbesuggestedaspartofaregularreadingcampaign.Thereadingculturemustbetrainedatayoungage.AdmittedlysomestudentsspeakandwritewellinEnglishlargelyduetotheirparents’encouragementwhoarehighlyeducated.Alargenumberofstudentswhocomefrompoorbackgroundsdonothavetheadvantageofreadingandimprovingtheirlanguageskills.3Merelyemphasizingreadingis
