Question

【題目】To me, life without music would not be exciting. I know that this is not true for everybody. Many people get along quite well without going to the concert, or listening to the tape. But music plays an important part in everyone’s life, whether he knows it or not. Try not to think, for example, what films or TV plays would be without music. I’m not sure about it.

Now, we can enjoy music more easily—the kind of music we hear in the concert hall. But if we look at some parts of music more closely, we find them in our everyday life too—the melody of a bird in the woods and so on. So music has meaning for everyone.

It is well said, “ Through music a child enters a world of beauty, express(表達(dá)) 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.”

【1】A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中I realize that this is not true for everybody. Many people get along quite well without going to the concert, and listening to the record.可知很多人沒有意識(shí)到音樂的重要性。使用選 A

【2】D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的句子：Try to imagine，for example，what films or TV plays would be like without music. Would the feelings，the moving plot，and the greatest interests，be so interesting or dramatic?可知如果電影和電視劇中沒有音樂的話，結(jié)果會(huì)很難想象，所以選D。

【3】C詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)文中We discover them in our everyday life too可知我們在日常生活中也能聽到這些音樂，如鳥的歌唱。所以“melody”=singing，故選C。
