Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2020·泉州高三质检)Jamey Turner often performs to large crowds in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. You can find him playing an unusual musical instrument, the glass harp(竖琴), near Alexandria’s historic waterfront.
35
A glass harp is made up of differentsized drinking glasses, each containing water. Turner makes music by running his fingers over the tops of the glasses. By doing so, each glass makes a different musical sound.
Turner is 78 years old now. He became interested in playing the glass harp at the age of six, when he heard his father playing with a glass of water at the dinner table. He has been playing it for 50 years.
Today Turner puts together his instrument by placing 60 different glasses on a wooden soundboard. He holds the glasses in place with rubber bands, which keeps them from breaking. He then adds different amounts of water to each one to create different musical notes. Adding or taking away just a little water will change the sound. Adding water to a glass will make a lower sound. The smaller bowls of water produce a higher sound, while the larger ones produce a lower, deeper sound.
Turner always uses lowpriced glass because it sounds better than costly crystal(水晶) and he has more control over the sound. Before buying new glasses, he will test them in stores.
The glass harp was popular 300 years ago when composers like Wolfgang Mozart wrote music for the instrument. There have been about 400 pieces of music written just for the glass harp. But Turner plays all kinds of music, even popular music from China. Few people play the glass harp these days, but Turner says he sees videos of people experimenting with the instrument on the Internet. He hopes the next generation will continue making their music.
【解题导语】 杰米·特纳经常在弗吉尼亚州亚历山大人群密集的地方演奏玻璃竖琴:敲击不同大小的盛水的玻璃杯,发出动听的乐声。他不仅能演奏玻璃竖琴专门乐曲,还能用它演奏中国流行音乐。
1.What do we know about Turner?
A.He began playing the glass harp at six.
B.He often teaches glass harp lessons online.
C.He is a great master of the Chinese language.
D.He was inspired by his father to learn the glass harp.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“He became interested in playing the glass harp at the age of six, when he heard his father playing with a glass of water at the dinner table.”可知,在六岁时,杰米·特纳听到父亲在餐桌上用一玻璃杯水演奏音乐,开始对玻璃竖琴产生兴趣。据此可知,D项正确。
2.What does the author say about the glass harp?
35
A.Its inventor is Wolfgang Mozart.
B.It is made up of glasses of the same size.
C.It appears to be gaining in popularity today.
D.Its sounds are affected by the amount of water in the glasses.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第四段第三、四句“He then adds different amounts of water to each one to create different musical notes. Adding or taking away just a little water will change the sound.”可知,杯子中的水量不同,产生的音调也不同;添加或去掉少量水就会改变声音。据此可知,玻璃竖琴的声音受杯子中水量的影响,故D项正确。
3.Why does Turner prefer to use cheap glass?
A.To save money.
B.To produce better sounds.
C.To help recycle drinking glasses.
D.To increase difficulty in performing.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第五段第一句“Turner always uses lowpriced glass because it sounds better than costly crystal(水晶) and he has more control over the sound.”可知,特纳总是使用低价玻璃杯是因为其声音听起来比昂贵的水晶杯好听,故B项正确。
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A.A Musician Pleases Crowds by Playing the Glass Harp
B.Playing the Glass Harp: a New Trend
C.Jamey Turner’s Dream Coming True
D.Wonderful Music Has No Borders
A 解析:标题归纳题。根据第一段“Jamey Turner often performs to large crowds in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. You can find him playing an unusual musical instrument, the glass harp(竖琴), near Alexandria’s historic waterfront.”并结合全文其他内容可知,本文主要讲述了一位音乐家为人群演奏玻璃竖琴的故事。故A项最适合作本文标题。

(2020·商丘高三模拟)Kendrick Lamar hasn’t had much luck when it comes to winning a Grammy. But that’s OK:The US rapper has just won a Pulitzer Prize for his music.
In 2014, in 2016, and again in 2018, Lamar was nominated(提名) for an album of the year Grammy. Each time, he was beaten out, first by Taylor Swift, next by Daft
35
Punk, and most recently by Bruno Mars.
But the Pulitzer Prize committee was inspired enough by Lamar’s 2017 album, Damn., to award the Pulitzer Prize in music on April 16. It’s an amazing album that documents the real life of modern AfricanAmericans in South Los Angeles with wildly accomplished beats and rhythms.
Lamar’s win is considered to be historical. The Pulitzers have long displayed their preference towards high art rather than the pop culture of the masses. So it’s not just that no rapper has ever won a Pulitzer: no pop music maker has ever won one in the award’s history.
But Lamar is not just a singer—he’s clever at using language. Like the best writers, his music describes small moments that illustrate larger points. His songs are about his experience as a black man who grew up in California, struggled, got into trouble, and found his way out by working hard and making sense of the history and reality in the US.
“He’s an artist who challenges ideas,” said Ryan Coogler, director of the blockbuster(大片) Black Panther, for which Lamar created music. “One big theme in our film is this idea of ‘What does it mean to be African?’ Lamar in his music is very exactly and directly challenging that question.”
Good artists entertain us, great artists make us think, and exceptional artists help us empathize(产生共鸣).
There are a lot of good, great, even exceptional artists in rock, pop, country, and hiphop. But only Lamar has won a Pulitzer Prize.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。美国说唱歌手Kendrick Lamar以说唱歌手的身份获得了普利策奖。
5.What is Lamar’s album Damn. about?
A.AfricanAmericans’history and culture.
B.Hardships of the AfricanAmerican artists.
C.The ways the US government deal with problems.
D.The lives of modern black people in South Los Angeles.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“It’s an amazing album that documents the real life of modern AfricanAmericans in South Los Angeles with wildly accomplished beats and rhythms.”可知,Lamar的这张专辑主要讲述的是生活在洛杉矶南部的当代美籍非洲人的真实生活。故选D。
6.Why is Lamar’s Pulitzer Prize win significant?
35
A.He is the first filmmaker to win the prize.
B.It is considered a milestone for pop music.
C.He is the first black person to win the prize.
D.He has missed Grammy several times before.
B 解析:推理判断题。根据第四段的内容,尤其是“Lamar’s win is considered to be historical.”和“no pop music maker has ever won one in the award’s history”可推知,Lamar获得普利策奖具有重大意义。故选B。
7.What can we learn from Ryan Coogler’s words?
A.Lamar drew inspiration from his own experience.
B.Lamar has the courage to take on big challenges in life.
C.Black Panther is well known because of Lamar’s music.
D.Lamar’s music matches the theme of Black Panther well.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第六段中Ryan Coogler说的话“One big theme in our film is this idea of ‘What does it mean to be African?’ Lamar in his music is very exactly and directly challenging that question.”可知,Lamar的音乐与电影《Black Panther》主题相一致。故选D。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2020·佛山高三质检)A study of 500,000 songs released(发行) in the UK between 1985 and 2015 showed that pop music had decreased in happiness and increased in sadness.
In a report published in the journal Royal Society Open Science, researchers at the University of California examined hundreds of thousands of songs and classified them by their mood. “‘Happiness’ is going down, ‘sadness’ is going up, and at the same time, the songs are becoming more ‘danceable’ and more ‘partylike’,” coauthor Natalia L.Komarova told The Associated Press.
The study found songs in 2014 like Stay with Me by Sam Smith, Whispers by Passenger and Unmissable by Gorgon City have a “low happiness” trend. However, tracks from 1984 like Glory Days by Bruce Springsteen, Would I Lie to You? by
35
Eurythmics and Freedom by Wham! had a “high happiness” trend. “The public seems to prefer happier songs, even though more and more unhappy songs are being released each year,” the researchers wrote.
Apart from the emotional trends, researchers discovered that dances and pop were the most successful styles of music and that there was a “clear downward” trend, with the popularity of rock beginning in the early 2000s. “So it looks like, while the overall mood is becoming less happy, people seem to want to forget it all and dance,” Komarova wrote in an email.
It was also found that the “maleness” of songs—the frequency of male singers in popular music—had decreased during the last 30 years. “Successful songs are characterised by a larger percentage of female artists compared to all songs,” they wrote.
This discovery appears at a time when the conversation around sex equality in the music industry is at its height, with more male artists and songwriters.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了流行音乐表达的情绪的变化趋势。
1.The researchers examined lots of songs to ________.
A.find songs for dances and parties
B.choose songs for a journal
C.release more songs
D.know better about songs
D 解析:推理判断题。本文第二段介绍了加州大学的研究者们调查了成千上万的歌曲并把它们按情绪分类,紧接着得出歌曲分类的结果,可见他们调查歌曲的目的是想对歌曲有更多的了解,故选D。A、C两项曲解文意;B项无中生有。
2.Whose music style tends to bring you more happiness?
A.Natalia L.Komarova’s.
B.Sam Smith’s.
C.Gorgon City’s.
D.Bruce Springsteen’s.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“However, tracks from 1984 like Glory Days by Bruce Springsteen...had a ‘high happiness’ trend.”可知D项正确。Natalia L.Komarova为报道的合著者,而非歌手;Sam Smith、Gorgon City所演唱的歌曲有让人开心感降低的趋势,故排除。
3.What do we know about songs over the past three decades?
A.Rock became popular in the early 2000s.
35
B.Fewer unhappy songs came to light every year.
C.Male singers were better at performing pop music.
D.Female artists were less skilled in writing songs.
A 解析:细节理解题。根据第四段中的“with the popularity of rock beginning in the early 2000s”可知,摇滚乐在21世纪初开始流行,故A项正确。其余三个选项的内容均与文意不符。
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Pop Music Is Getting Sadder
B.Music Calls for Sex Equality
C.Pop Music Has a Long History
D.Music Industry Is Going Down
A 解析:标题归纳题。根据本文首段总述及后续段落的描述可知,全文重点介绍了流行音乐正变得越来越伤感,故选A项。B项仅是本文中提到的一个细节;C项不是本文的重点;D项扩大外延,属过度概括,故排除。

(2020·马鞍山高三模拟)Pangolins(穿山甲) are strangelooking creatures, covered with hard scales(鳞). They can roll up into a ball to protect themselves from enemies and have tongues that are longer than their bodies.
Pangolins have recently become the focus of Chinese people. A screenshot of a microblog post showing some people eating pangolins at a feast spread. A few days later, people were angered again by pictures showing people eating protected animals, including pangolins.
Yet this is only the tip of the iceberg. Many more pangolins have been hunted or killed. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN), more than 1 million of them have been killed or sold in the last 10 years. It also said that they are the most illegally traded mammals in the world. In September 2016, the IUCN added the pangolin to the world’s “endangered animals list”. They are now more endangered than pandas.
A growing trade of their scales and meat is the main reason for their decline in number. Many people in Asia and Africa consider pangolin meat is delicious. Some people even think pangolin scales have medical qualities. However, their scales are made of keratin(角蛋白), the same material human fingernails are made of.
Luckily, the situation is getting better. World Pangolin Day is on the third
35
Saturday of February each year. It’s a day to help people know more about pangolins. The government now stops anyone from buying and eating pangolins in China. Breaking this law is regarded as a crime, and the trade of pangolins across the world is also not allowed, according to the Convention on Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章阐述了穿山甲濒临灭绝的现状,以及为保护穿山甲而采取的举措。
5.Pangolins have caught people’s attention these years because ________.
A.they look strange
B.they appear in some movies
C.they are killed and eaten by people
D.they have something to do with pandas
C 解析:细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词“attention”和“these years”,我们把答案定位在第二段。该段开头说,穿山甲近来成为中国人关注的焦点,然后提到一张屏幕截图和一些图片里,穿山甲成为人们的盘中珍馐,这与C项的描述是一致的。
6.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Pangolins can roll up into a ball to attack enemies.
B.More than 1 million pangolins were killed or sold last year.
C.Pangolins were named the most endangered animal in 2016.
D.The pangolin is a kind of mammals.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段内容,尤其是“they are the most illegally traded mammals in the world”可知,穿山甲是一种哺乳动物,故选D。
7.The real aim of World Pangolin Day may be to ________.
A.attract people to the zoo to watch pangolins
B.lift people’s awareness of protecting pangolins
C.remind people of pangolins’ medical value
D.explain the law to people
B 解析:推理判断题。根据题干中的“World Pangolin Day”,我们把答案定位在最后一段。该段主要陈述了为保护穿山甲而采取的举措,而这个节日能让人们更多地了解穿山甲,从而提高人们保护穿山甲的意识,故选B。
8.What might be the author’s attitude towards the measures taken to protect pangolins?
A.Positive. B.Negative.
C.Disappointed. D.Unconcerned.
35
A 解析:观点态度题。根据最后一段内容可知,中国政府禁止任何人购买和食用穿山甲,世界各地也禁止买卖穿山甲,局面正在好转,由此可推知作者觉得这些措施是有效的,故选A。

3.D 解析:根据空后一句“However, that reason does not have to be concrete.”可知,D项“如果你有一个理由的话,说‘不’总是比较容易的”符合语境,故选D。
4.B 解析:空后三句讲述的是,人们通常不会接受“不”的,他们会找种种理由劝你改变主意,因此我们要坚持自己的决定,不要轻易屈服。由此可推知,我们要知道他人的劝说技巧。故选B。
