A
I'm sure you know the song “Happy Birthday”．But do you know who wrote the song and for whom it was written?
The retired professor, Archibald A．Hill in Lucasville，USA could tell us the story.Ninetyseven years ago, two of Mr.Archibald Hill's aunts, Miss Patty Hill and Miss Mildred Hill were asked to write some songs for a book called “Song Stories for the Sunday Morning.” Miss Patty Hill and Miss Mildred Hill were both kindergarten teachers then.They loved children very much and wrote many beautiful songs for the book.One of them was the famous “Good Morning to You.” the song said, “Good morning to you, good morning to you, dear children, good morning to all.” This song was very popular at that time among kindergarten children.But not many grownups knew it.A few years later little Archibald was born.As his aunt, Miss Patty Hill sang the song“Happy Birthday” to the melody (曲调) of “Good Morning to You” to her little nephew (侄儿)．She sang the song like this：
Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday，dear Archie!
Happy birthday to you!
Miss Patty Hill and her sister had never expected that this song would become so popular, but it really did.People all over the world like the song because of its simplicity in tune (曲调简单) and friendliness in words.

B
One of the most popular American singers of the twentieth century was Elvis Presley.He made the Rock ’n’ Roll music popular around the world.He sold millions of records and made many successful films, and he helped change the direction of popular music in the 1960s.
Elvis Presley was born in a poor family in Tupelos in Mississippi in 1935.His parents were simple country people who often took him to church, where he learned to sing and he never forgot the kind of songs that he used to sing at church as a child.
When he was a teenager, Elvis moved from Tupelos to Memphis in Tennessee, where he attended high school, but he was not a good student.His only real interest was singing.He began to sing in the style that is called “country and western”．
In 1955 he recorded some songs for his mother's birthday.The people at the recording studio(录音棚) liked his singing and his music.There was something different about it.It was country and western music, but it also sounded a little like the music, which black people used to sing in the American South, music known as blues.
Shortly after that, Elvis met Tom Parker, who became his manager and arranged(安排)concerts for him across the United States and new recordings as well.Soon Elvis rose to fame all over the country.Later, Elvis went to Hollywood and began to appear in films like Love Me Tender and King Creole.
But Elvis found it hard to live with success, like many other entertainment personalities (娱乐圈内的人士)．He began to take drugs and his health began to suffer.When he died at an early age of 42 in 1977, his many millions of fans were shocked.“The King Is Dead！” the newspaper said.But today his memory and his music live on and he will always be remembered as the King of Rock ’n’ Roll.
40．Judging from the passage, we may conclude______.
A．Elvis forgot his church music at a later age
B．his church songs helped his development in his singing
C．Elvis didn't get any help from his parents in singing
D．his church songs didn't help him develop his own style
41．What was Elvis' style of singing like most probably?
A．Only country and western.
B．Only country and blues.
C．Both western and country.
D．Not only country and western but also a bit blues.
42．What was the main reason for his death?
A．A car accident. B．Killing by others.
C．Taking drugs. D．Heart attract.
43．What do the fans regard Elvis Presley as?
A．The King of Rock ’n’ Roll. B．The King of Blues.
C．The King of Rap. D．The King of Country Music.
第二节
根据短文内容，从短文后面的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations.They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.__44__
The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly.Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this leads to new kinds of sicknesses.__45__So they are called “diseases of civilization”．Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.
Scientists note that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco，probably none.__46__However，a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.
Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meals，which had much less fat than domestic(家里的) ones.They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits.They did not have milk or any other dairy products，and they made very little use of grains.__47__We eat six times more salt than our ancestors.We eat more sugar.We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.
__48__But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did，cutting the amount of fatty，salty and sweet food.
A．Stone Age people lived a simple life.
B．But today，we enjoy eating a lot of these.
C．In that case，they would live much healthier.
D．Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.
E．These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.
F．People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.[来源:www.shulihua.net]
G．Modern people suffer from “diseases of civilization”
Ⅳ.短文改错

注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；
2．只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。
Wise men don't always act as wise like we think.At times they maybe done something silly.Because we always think they are wellknown，so the stories about their foolish acts are still widely talked throughout the world in modern times.For example，Beethoven，the great composer of Austria was said to insisted on paying a waiter in a restaurant for a dinner he has not eaten or ever ordered.The British physicist Newton，while lived in London，cut two holes in the two doors of his flat，one big，the other small，so as for his two cats to pass through them.He only thought the bigger cat could not get through the smaller holes easily.

参考答案
Ⅰ.
1. 答案：D 提示：第一题空处的music是泛指，故前面不加冠词；第二题空处的music是特指“他们跳舞时用的伴奏音乐”。由此可知D项正确。
2. 答案：D 提示：passerby为一复合名词，其复数形式应在主体名词后加s；stop to do sth.“停下来干某事”，而stop doing sth“停止干某事”，由句意可知，此处应为：停下来干某事，故D项正确。
3. 答案：C 提示：句意为：“如果你在情人节收到一束玫瑰花，你知道这有什么隐含意思吗？”attach...to...意为“附加”。[来源:www.shulihua.net]
4. 答案：A 提示：sensitive “敏感的，灵敏的”；humorous “幽默的”；attractive “吸引人的”；confident “自信的”。由“莉莉总是认为我们在背后说她的坏话。”可知，此处应该是“她总是这样敏感”。
5. 答案：D 提示：towards“朝向”；forwards“向前方”；upwards“向上地”；afterwards“然后，后来”。句意为“会议持续了一个半小时后短暂休息了一会。”由句意可知D项正确。
6. 答案：B 提示：句意为：“我哥哥买了一架望远镜，通过它他可以研究夜空中的星星。”考查“介词＋which”引导的非限制性定语从句，此处应用介词through。
7. 答案：C 提示：句意为：“这位老人在这个山村学校从教30年了，我们都为他终身献身教育事业而感动。”guidance “指导”；performance “演出”；devotion “献身，投入，热爱”；invitation “邀请”。
8. 答案：C 提示：由答语可知，此处应为C项，即to be honest “说实话”。generally speaking“一般说来”；that is to say“也就是说”；I'm not sure“我不确定”。
9. 答案：B 提示：句意为：“那个穿着讲究的绅士假装是个百万富翁，而实际上，他不名一文。”unless “若非，如果不”；while “然而，可是”；since “由于，自从”；before “在……之前”。

Ⅱ.
答案：16．A 提示：下文中与此句对应的句子中一再出现type，kind等词，据此推知此处应为kind(类别)。
17．B 提示：此句意为“第一类，古典音乐指的是几百年前起源于欧洲的管弦乐”。deal with意为“处理，对付”；refer to意为“指的是，涉及”；do with意为“处理”；date from意为“追溯到”。
18．D 提示：此段是介绍古典音乐的。且上文中已出现了classical music，据此，此处应为classical(古典的)。
19．D 提示：上文中尽管提到written一词，但那是对composed作出解释；据常识应该知道贝多芬和巴赫是著名的作曲家，不是作者(writer，author)，也不是诗人。
20．A 提示：“用乐器演奏音乐”中的“演奏”一词应用play表达。
21．D 提示：此处与下文的by a variety of wind instruments such as the flute并列，且the violin为一种“乐器”，因此答案为D项instruments(乐器)。
22．B 提示：that替代被the限定的可数名词单数或不可数名词；one替代被不定冠词修饰的单数可数名词。此处空格前没有冠词，且前面的名词是不可数名词music，因此that与one均不合适。[来源:www.shulihua.net]
23．A 提示：下句：Every culture has its own special forms of traditional music，此句是解释传统音乐的文化根源、背景，而不是国家。
24．D 提示：依据常识，每种文化的传统音乐有自己的表现形式(form)，而不是“方式”或“方法”(ways，means)。
25．C 提示：此句中and连接的两个并列宾语的结构大致相同，句意为“每种文化都有自己独特的传统音乐形式，和演奏这些传统音乐独特的乐器。”因此答案为C项。special“专门的，特殊的”。
26．C 提示：上文中出现了“第一”“第二”，因此许多学生会习惯地选上“第三”(third)，但如用third，其前应有the。表示三者或三者以上的“另外一种”用another。
27．A 提示：根据常识可知，摇滚乐是一种节奏感很强、声音很大的音乐，排除B、D两项；loud用来形容乐曲音量“大”。
28．B 提示：A、B、C三项都有“打，击”的含义，据常识可知音乐中的“打，击”是一种反复的、连续的动作，由此推知选B项beat“(流行音乐或摇滚音乐的)强节奏”。
29．C 提示：据后面的electric guitars and electric pianos可知此处是指用电的或电动的乐器；electric意为“用电的，导电的，电动的”；electrical意为“有关电的”；electronic“电子的”。
30．D 提示：句意为：“摇滚音乐在大约三四十年前开始(出现)。”come“到来”；produce“生产”；invent“发明”；begin“开始”。由句意可知，D项正确。
31．D 提示：据后面的especially among young people可知此部分意为“摇滚音乐变得很受欢迎，很流行，特别是在年轻人中”。
32．C 提示：文中只介绍了音乐中典型的几种，下文中还提到其他种类，把jazz定为最后的一种(last，final)是不恰当的。
33．B 提示：此句意为“爵士乐很可能来自非洲”；come from...意为“来自……”。
34．A 提示：general意为“大致的，一般的”。根据选项中各词含义和下文中对其他种类的简略涉及可判断这种类型的分类是一般化的分类。
35．D 提示：当然还有“其他”类型的音乐。

参考范文：
Music and Life
As for me, life without music would not be exciting.I realize that this is not true for everybody.Many people get along quite well without going to the concert or listening to the record.
But music plays an important part in everyone's life, whether he realizes it or not.Now, we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning — the kind of music we hear in the concert hall.But if we look at some parts of music more closely, we discover them in our everyday life too — in the rhythm (旋律) of the sea, the melody(曲调) of a bird in the woods and so on.So music surely has meanings for everyone in some way or other.And, of course, it has special meanings for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music.
Once a great man said, “Through music a child enters a world of beauty, expresses himself from his heart, feels the joy of doing things alone, learns to take care of others, develops his mind and makes his body strong.”

Happy birthday to you!

One of the most popular American singers of the twentieth century was Elvis Presley.He made the Rock ’n’ Roll music popular around the world.He sold millions of records and made many successful films, and he helped change the direction of popular music in the 1960s.
Elvis Presley was born in a poor family in Tupelos in Mississippi in 1935.His parents were simple country people who often took him to church, where he learned to sing and he never forgot the kind of songs that he used to sing at church as a child.
When he was a teenager, Elvis moved from Tupelos to Memphis in Tennessee, where he attended high school, but he was not a good student.His only real interest was singing.He began to sing in the style that is called “country and western”．
In 1955 he recorded some songs for his mother's birthday.The people at the recording studio(录音棚) liked his singing and his music.There was something different about it.It was country and western music, but it also sounded a little like the music, which black people used to sing in the American South, music known as blues.
Shortly after that, Elvis met Tom Parker, who became his manager and arranged(安排)concerts for him across the United States and new recordings as well.Soon Elvis rose to fame all over the country.Later, Elvis went to Hollywood and began to appear in films like Love Me Tender and King Creole.
But Elvis found it hard to live with success, like many other entertainment personalities (娱乐圈内的人士)．He began to take drugs and his health began to suffer.When he died at an early age of 42 in 1977, his many millions of fans were shocked.“The King Is Dead！” the newspaper said.But today his memory and his music live on and he will always be remembered as the King of Rock ’n’ Roll.

第二节
根据短文内容，从短文后面的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations.They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.__44__
The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly.Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this leads to new kinds of sicknesses.__45__So they are called “diseases of civilization”．Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.
Scientists note that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco，probably none.__46__However，a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.
Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meals，which had much less fat than domestic(家里的) ones.They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits.They did not have milk or any other dairy products，and they made very little use of grains.__47__We eat six times more salt than our ancestors.We eat more sugar.We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.
__48__But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did，cutting the amount of fatty，salty and sweet food.
A．Stone Age people lived a simple life.
B．But today，we enjoy eating a lot of these.
C．In that case，they would live much healthier.
D．Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.
E．These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.
F．People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.[来源:www.shulihua.net]

Wise men don't always act as wise like we think.At times they maybe done something silly.Because we always think they are wellknown，so the stories about their foolish acts are still widely talked throughout the world in modern times.For example，Beethoven，the great composer of Austria was said to insisted on paying a waiter in a restaurant for a dinner he has not eaten or ever ordered.The British physicist Newton，while lived in London，cut two holes in the two doors of his flat，one big，the other small，so as for his two cats to pass through them.He only thought the bigger cat could not get through the smaller holes easily.

18．D 提示：此段是介绍古典音乐的。且上文中已出现了classical music，据此，此处应为classical(古典的)。

23．A 提示：下句：Every culture has its own special forms of traditional music，此句是解释传统音乐的文化根源、背景，而不是国家。

27．A 提示：根据常识可知，摇滚乐是一种节奏感很强、声音很大的音乐，排除B、D两项；loud用来形容乐曲音量“大”。
28．B 提示：A、B、C三项都有“打，击”的含义，据常识可知音乐中的“打，击”是一种反复的、连续的动作，由此推知选B项beat“(流行音乐或摇滚音乐的)强节奏”。

参考范文：
Music and Life
As for me, life without music would not be exciting.I realize that this is not true for everybody.Many people get along quite well without going to the concert or listening to the record.
But music plays an important part in everyone's life, whether he realizes it or not.Now, we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning — the kind of music we hear in the concert hall.But if we look at some parts of music more closely, we discover them in our everyday life too — in the rhythm (旋律) of the sea, the melody(曲调) of a bird in the woods and so on.So music surely has meanings for everyone in some way or other.And, of course, it has special meanings for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music.
Once a great man said, “Through music a child enters a world of beauty, expresses himself from his heart, feels the joy of doing things alone, learns to take care of others, develops his mind and makes his body strong.”
