课时分层作业(十九)　[高考题型练习提能力]Ⅰ.阅读理解AOne of the most famous buildings in the United States is Carnegie Hall，the home of classical and popular music concerts in New York.Carnegie Hall is known not just for its beauty and history，but also for its amazing sound.Carnegie Hall is named after Andrew Carnegie，who paid for its construction.Construction of Carnegie Hall began in 1890 and the official opening night was on May 5，1891.The hall was owned by the Carnegie family until 1924 when it was sold to Robert E．Simon.The building became very old and in 1960，the new owner made plans to destroy it and build an office block.Isaac Stem led a group of people who fought to save Carnegie Hall and finally，the city of New York bought it for $5 million.It was then fixed up between 1983 and 1995.Advertisements and stories in newspapers about how Carnegie Hall needed help to recover its history led people to send in old concert programmes and information from all over the world.Over 12，000 concert programmes were received and with these it was possible to make a proper record of Carnegie Hall's concert history.Carnegie Hall is actually made up of several different halls，but the Main Hall，now called the Isaac Stem Auditorium，is the most famous.The hall itself can hold an audience of 2，804 in five levels of seating.Because the best and most famous musicians of all time have played at Carnegie Hall，it is the dream of most musicians who want to be great to play there.This has led to a very old joke which is now part of Carnegie Hall's history.Question：“How do I get to Carnegie Hall？” Answer：“Practise，practise，practise.”【语篇解读】　本文主要介绍了有号称“世界一流音响设备”的卡内基音乐厅，并讲述它的历史与辉煌。1．It can be inferred that people wanted to save Carnegie Hall mainly because        ．A．it made a lot of moneyB．it was

softball tryouts (选拔赛) were just around the corner.It was only the second day of our training，a Tuesday.The players were hitting balls as training.The field of training was poorly set up.However，two lines were formed in both the right and the left field as the players hit the ball from the line towards the center field.And then the only thing that I could remember when I woke up was that I was hit by the ball.And I had lost my front tooth.As one could imagine，I was scared.With the Music Year only four days away，it was vexatious．I felt so disappointed on the way home and planned to give up for I didn't know whether I could play the saxophone well without my front tooth.Then I met my lovely neighbor，Kathy.She was a kind girl.After she knew what I was worrying，she encouraged me to go on my way to the Music Year.And she said I needed to go to the dentist and she would go along with me.After going to the dentist and getting my tooth fixed，I went home and went to bed after taking the medicine.The following days，I practised the saxophone with other members.I could also do well as before，and I expected I would perform well in the Music Year.By the way，Kathy was the one I needed to say two words for her encouragement.【语篇解读】　因门牙掉了而打算放弃参加音乐年表演的作者在邻家女孩的鼓励下重拾信心。5．According to the passage，we know that         ．A．the author did well in all the school subjectsB．the author was good at

games can increase attention.But only some video games have these effects.Playing Candy Crush or Angry Birds won't provide any of these benefits.  3  Top­selling games such as Call of Duty tend to be marketed to men，and 15  percent of men describe themselves as “gamers” compared with 6 percent of women.But the latest  information  shows  that  40 percent of players are women.There are also more adult women players than boys younger than 18 who play.Violent games cause real­life violence.The American Psychological Association did find a connection between violent video games and short­term increases in aggression (好斗)．  4   Frustration (挫败) or competition，rather than violent pictures，might be leading to the feelings of aggression，these researchers say.They're bigger than movies.It was reported that Pac­Man had made about U．S.$ 1.2  billion—three times as much as Star Wars.True，but that doesn't include how much is spent on DVDs or TV channels that show movies.Plus，when Grand Theft

them.C．Now，let's put an end to some of them.D．But many scholars don't agree with these findings.E．So，movies are still more popular and come out ahead.F．They were too violent and taught children not to value life.G．Studies have found that “action games” improve hand­eye movement.【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。都说玩游戏可以使人变得更聪明，都说只有男性才玩游戏……其实不然。Ⅲ.语法填空Hershey Park is full of fantastic rides，shows and 1.
