One recent Sunday I stood in church, video camera in hand, and my 68-year-old father play the piano in his very first recital.

My father had longed to play music since childhood, but his family was poor and couldn’t lessons. He could have gone on regretting it, too many of us do. But he wasn’t stuck in the past. When he retired three years ago, he his church music director to take him as .

For a moment after my father sat down at the keyboard, he stared down at his fingers. Has he forgotten the ? I worried. But then came the beautiful melody (旋律). And I he had been doing what music teachers always stress: the notes and pretend the others aren’t there.

“I’m of him for starting something new at his age,” I said to my son Jeff.

試題分析:本文主要講了,從我讀二年級(jí)開(kāi)始,之后每年我都害怕一件事:鋼琴獨(dú)奏演唱會(huì)。每年我都問(wèn)父親我可不可以不演奏了,父親每次都搖頭,教我該如何建立自信,向著目標(biāo)努力。父親從小就渴望學(xué)鋼琴,但由于當(dāng)時(shí)家里很窮,父親的夢(mèng)想一直沒(méi)能實(shí)現(xiàn)。三年前,他退休后,開(kāi)始學(xué)鋼琴,不一會(huì)兒,他就旁若無(wú)人地彈起優(yōu)美的旋律。父親的第一次獨(dú)奏教會(huì)了我自信以及向著目標(biāo)努力。

【1】考查動(dòng)詞的辨析。A反思,B意味著,C解釋?zhuān)珼證明。由后面可知此處缺乏動(dòng)詞來(lái)表示獨(dú)奏和我不得不練習(xí)無(wú)聊的音樂(lè),并且在陌生人面前表演之間的關(guān)系,句意為獨(dú)奏意味著我不得不練習(xí)無(wú)聊的音樂(lè),并且在陌生人面前表演。故選B。

【2】考查名詞的辨析。A自信,B自控,C自我防衛(wèi),D自律。由文章可知我是不愿意在陌生人面前表演,由此可以推斷出我是缺乏自信,因此父親應(yīng)該是教我如何建立自信,故選A。

【3】考查動(dòng)詞的辨析。A保持,B送,C看,D感覺(jué)。由后文可以推斷出這是父親在進(jìn)行鋼琴表演,因此我是在觀看父親表演鋼琴,故選C。

【4】考查動(dòng)詞的辨析。A想念,B支付,負(fù)擔(dān),C挑選,D理解。由前面的當(dāng)時(shí)父親家里很窮,所以可以推斷出是支付不起上課的學(xué)費(fèi),故選B。

【5】考查連詞的辨析。A正如,就像,B曾經(jīng),C如果,D然而,由文章可知該句的意思是他本可以像其他人一樣繼續(xù)自己的生活,并且為這件事感到遺憾。為沒(méi)有做的事感到遺憾是很多人通常都會(huì)做的事,故選A。

【6】考查動(dòng)詞的辨析。A允許,B邀請(qǐng),C鼓舞,D勸說(shuō)。由前文可知父親沒(méi)有被過(guò)去的遺憾困住,他想要學(xué)習(xí)鋼琴以實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的目標(biāo),所以他應(yīng)該是勸說(shuō)教堂的音樂(lè)指揮者教他彈鋼琴。故選D。

【7】考查名詞的辨析。A一位老師,B一位老人,C一個(gè)學(xué)生,D一位歌者。由前文可知父親沒(méi)有被過(guò)去的遺憾困住,他想要學(xué)習(xí)鋼琴以實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的目標(biāo),所以他應(yīng)該是勸說(shuō)教堂的音樂(lè)指揮者教他彈鋼琴。因此他的身份就是一名學(xué)生。故選C。

【8】考查名詞的辨析。A詞,B視頻,C音調(diào),D課程,由于父親是在表演鋼琴,所以我是在懷疑父親是否忘記了音樂(lè)的音調(diào),故選C。

【9】考查動(dòng)詞的辨析。A預(yù)測(cè),B意識(shí)到,C想象,D堅(jiān)持。由前面的那句話可知美妙的旋律響起,這證明我之前的懷疑是錯(cuò)的,因此我才意識(shí)到他在做音樂(lè)老師經(jīng)常強(qiáng)調(diào)的事。故選B。

【10】考查動(dòng)詞詞組的辨析。A超過(guò),B出現(xiàn),C引起,導(dǎo)致,D集中注意力于。由前文父親盯著他的手指,我們可以推斷出父親是集中注意力于音調(diào),并且假裝旁若無(wú)人,故選D。

【11】考查形容詞的辨析。A羞恥的,B意識(shí),C疲勞的,D自豪的。由前文可知盡管父親這么老了,他還向著他的目標(biāo)努力,并且這么投入,可以推斷出我是為父親感到自豪,故選D。

【題目】When Jeff Sparkman draws his cartoon superheroes with colored pencils, he often has to ask other people to tell him what color his masked men turned out to be because he's color-blind. Now, a new smart phone application (app) can help him figure out what colors he's using and how the picture looks to most everyone else.

The DanKam app, available for iPhone and Android for $2.99, is an application that turns the vague colors that one percent of the population with color-blindness sees into the "true" colors as everyone else sees them. In America, an estimated 32 million color-blind Americans—95% are males—can soon have their life improved.

“DanKam takes the stream of data coming in through the phone's camera and changes the colors slightly so they fall within the range that people who are color-blind see,”developer Dan Kaminsky told CNET. He came up with the idea after watching the 2009 film Star Trek with a color-blind friend.

It was then that he got to know more about colorblindness like its varying types and degrees. A vast majority, for instance, have trouble seeing red or green due to a genetic defect(遺傳缺陷). Blue-yellow colorblindness, however, is rarer and develops later in life because of aging, illness or head injuries, etc. He started experimenting with one of the most common representations of points in the RGB color model. What the DanKam app attempts to do is to clean up the color space of the image or video signal so that colors can be visible to those suffering from viewing problems. “You can adjust the app to fit your needs. There is a range and not everyone who is color-blind sees things the same.” Says Kaminsky.

Sparkman, a copy editor at CNET, tried out the app and was pleased with the results. "It would be useful for dressing for a job interview," he said. But using it for his art is “the most practical application." It worked well on LED and other lights on electronic gadgets, which means Sparkman can now identify the power light on his computer display as green.

【1】According to the first two paragraphs, we can know that DanKam ___________.

A. is designed to help people with colorblindness

B. can turn vague colors into real ones

C. is a phone used to help drawing pictures

D. appeared in the movie Star Trek

【2】How does DanKam’s app work?

A. It puts LED and other lights on electronic gadgets.

B. It shows common representations of points in the RGB color model

C. It checks color-blind people’s types of degrees of colorblindness.

D. It changes the colors so that color-blind people can see them.

【3】It can be inferred from the passage that colorblindness __________.

A. cannot be cured by any methods

B. is not necessarily inborn disease

C. is more commonly seen in women

D. makes people unable to tell any colors

【4】The underlined word visible in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _________.

A. recognizable B. enjoyable

C. adjustable D. Portable

【5】Which of the following is NOT included in the things that DanKam helps Sparkman with?

A. Choosing clothes.

B. Playing computer games

C. Drawing his pictures.

D. Handling electronic gadgets.
