（2021·四川达州·高一期末）Twenty-five young musicians from around the world have come to California to train and perform this month. They will take part in an international program called iPalpiti. The name comes from the Italian word for heartbeats. Eduard Schmieder is the program's conductor and musical director. Schmieder and his wife started the program in 1997 with help from the great violinist Yehudi Menuhin.
This year, the festival concentrates on music from the 1600s to the 1900s and the musicians come from 19 countries, including Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Israel and Italy, Schmieder notes some of the musicians are from countries that are at war with each other. And they are sitting next to each other, and they become friends. He says through their music and friendship, they are making the world more peaceful. Also, cello (大提琴) player Francisco Vila from Ecuador said, “Music is our common language, having no geographic boundaries.” Vila added that the musicians get to know more about each other as they perform great music. “It’s interesting to see where we intersect (相交) and how many things we have in common. And also the music world is quite small, so you’re only one person away from knowing everyone else.”
The musicians taking part in the program are of ages from their late teens to their 30s. Schmieder said they include winners of major music competitions. Peter Rainer is a violin player from Germany. He serves as concertmaster, the link between the musicians and conductor.
“The experience is a cultural as well as a musical exchange,” said Russian violinist Semyo Promoe, “and everyone has their own opinion of music, knowing how to play every composition. It’s very interesting to interact with everybody and play together.”

（2020·黑龙江·铁人中学高一阶段练习）Many of us listen to music while we work, thinking that it will help us to concentrate on the task at hand. And in fact, recent research has found that music can have beneficial effects on creativity. When it comes to other areas of performance, however, the impact of background music is more complicated.
The idea that listening to music when working is beneficial to output probably has its roots in the so-called “Mozart effect”. Put simply, this is the finding that spatial rotation performance(空间旋转能力) is increased immediately after listening to the music of Mozart, compared to no sound at all.
How sound affects performance has been the topic of research for over 40 years, and is observed through a phenomenon called the irrelevant sound effect. To study irrelevant sound effect, participants in the research are asked to complete a simple task which requires them to recall a series of numbers or letters in the exact order in which they saw them. The tricky thing is being able to do this while ignoring any background noise.
Two key characteristics of the irrelevant sound effect are required for its observation. First, the task must require the person to use their rehearsal abilities(复述能力), and second, the sound must contain acoustical variation(声学变化). Where the sound does not vary much acoustically, the performance of the task is much closer to that observed in quiet conditions.
The irrelevant sound effect itself comes from attempting to process two sources of ordered information at the same time—one from the task and one from the sound. Unfortunately, only the former is required to successfully perform the recall task, and the effort in ensuring that irrelevant order information from the sound is not processed actually hinders(阻碍) this ability.
A similar conflict is also seen when reading while in the presence of lyrical music. In this situation, the two sources of words—from the task and the sound—are in conflict. The cost is poorer performance of the task in the presence of music with lyrics.
What this all means is that whether having music playing in the background helps or hinders performance depends on the task and on the type of music, and only understanding this relationship will help people maximize their productivity levels.
12．“Mozart effect” is mentioned to ________.
A．explain how music can relax people
B．show music can improve performance
C．advise people to listen to Mozart music
D．stress Mozart music gains wide attention
13．It can be inferred that participants in the research ________.
A．have improved their rehearsal ability
B．perform better in the quiet conditions
C．ignore the background noise successfully
D．prefer the music with great sound variation
14．Paragraph 6 is written to ________.
A．support an idea B．make a contrast
C．introduce a topic D．describe a fact
15．What is the best title for the passage?
A．Music shapes your life
B．Music develops your creativity
C．Choose quiet music for your work
D．Does music make you concentrate?

Another disappointing day was passing, and he was driving his beat-up old car home. He was out all day looking for a job. It was getting dark and light snow was coming down, so he almost didn’t see the old lady standing on the side of the road. It was clear that she needed help. He pulled up in front of her obviously brand new and expensive car and got out.
While nobody had stopped to help for the last hour and there was a smile on his face, she was worried when he approached her. He didn’t look safe. He looked poor and hungry.
He could see she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He said, “I’m here to help you, ma’am. Why don’t you wait in your car to keep warm? My name is Bryan.”
A tire was flat. Bryan fetched tools from his own car to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt. As he was tightening her car’s nuts, she rolled down the window, said thanks and asked him how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She had already imagined all the awful things that could have happened without his help.
Bryan never thought twice about the money. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed. He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home.
Soon the lady saw a small restaurant. She went in to grab a bite to eat and warm up before she made the last leg of her trip home. The waitress came over with a sweet smile and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant(怀孕的). Although the waitress looked tired and walked painfully due to the pregnancy, she still served the lady.
Paragraph 1:
After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a one-hundred-dollar bill. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
That night when the waitress got home from work, she was thinking about the money and what the lady had written.

本文为一篇说明文，介绍了著名画家毕加索的个人信息及绘画生涯中的几个重要阶段。
36．
考查定语从句关系词。句意：人们普遍认为，巴勃罗·毕加索（生于1881年，卒于1973年）是20世纪西方最伟大的画家。分析句子可知，空处缺少关系代词引导非限制性定语从句，先行词Pablo Picasso作从句的主语，表示人，用who。故填who。
37．
考查冠词。句意：他出生在西班牙，10岁时就已经是一名优秀的画家。artist（画家）是可数名词单数，此处要用不定冠词限定，excellent音标中第一个章节是元音音素/e/。故填an。

42．
考查形容词比较级。句意：从1904年到1906年，毕加索用粉红色画的画要快乐得多。根据much可知，空处用形容词happy的比较级作定语修饰pictures。故填happier。
43．
考查非谓语动词。句意：后来，毕加索和另一位名叫乔治·布拉克的西班牙艺术家一起，发起了一场重要的新艺术运动——立体主义。空处作Spanish artist的定语，artist与name构成逻辑上的被动关系，用过去分词。故填：named。
44．
考查名词。句意同上。分析句子可知，空处作movement的定语，用形容词。故填important。
45．
考查非谓语动词。句意：人们一致认为，毕加索最伟大的立体派画作是《格尔尼卡》，画这幅画是为了表达他对20世纪30年代西班牙战争期间这座小镇所发生的事情的感受。根据句意可知，毕加索画Guernica的目的是为了表达他的感受，空处用不定式作目的状语。故填to show。
46．First of all, thank you for listening to my speech. My topic is: we can’t live without music.
Music is like the air we need to maintain our normal lives around us. You can’t imagine how terrible a world without music would be. Movies and TV shows only have dry conversations and scenes; mobile phones only vibrations; streets only noisy crowds; restaurants only depressed meals. What a terrible world it is!
As a student, I hope we all can enjoy the fun brought by music in our spare time. Instead of just listening to music, we can even make our own music. Let’s enjoy the fun of music!
Thanks again for your attention!

这是一篇记叙文，要求续写该故事。
【详解】
根据文章内容可知，布莱恩帮助了一位女士，但他不求回报，希望女士将爱传递下去，女士走后去餐馆吃饭，根据第一段的提示内容“那位女士用完餐后，她付了一百美元。”可以推测出本段是讲述女士用她的方式把爱传递给了孕妇服务员；根据第二段的提示内容“那天晚上，当女服务员下班回家时，她在想那笔钱和那位女士写的东西。”可知，本段应是讲述服务员回家后告诉家人所发生的的事，可以设想一下戏剧性的结局，比如女服务员的丈夫就是布莱恩。
