　　Ⅰ.閱讀理解

　　(2024·山西省太原五中高三月考)

　　Both of Jessica's parents were lawyers and expected her to follow suit. So she went to law school, got a job at a great firm in Washington, DC, and worked as a lawyer for a decade. But her heart was never in it. “I had a big salary but no personal satisfaction，” she says.

　　Jessica found pleasure in the same thing that had brought her joy since joining the church choir at the age of 12. “Singing always felt like communicating something real at a spiritual and emotional level，” says Jessica. Yet she never considered it a career option. “That seemed like something people did in fairy tales, and I would never let my parents down，” she says.

　　It was her mom's diagnosis of brain cancer in 2009 that made Jessica realize she had to write her own happy-ever-after. “Work was busy and my mother was ailing. So I was flying back and forth from Washington, DC to Houston to see her，” Jessica says. “I finally said，‘Enough！’ and quit.” While caring for her mom, Jessica made a plan. She would spend her savings and study music for a year, and then open a part-time law practice so she could pursue her passion. Before her mother passed away two years later, she encouraged Jessica to follow her dream. Her song Live This Life was inspired by her mom, and her dad came to watch her perform at clubs.

　　In 2024, Jessica moved to Nashville to try singing and songwriting. A decade of presenting cases in court gave her the confidence to sing for a crowd. “At 20, I would have been too shy to perform，” says Jessica.

　　“Doing music is so free，” Jessica says. “There's no pressure to be a star. Success, to me, isn't a dollar amount or a record deal; it's doing what I love.”

　　語(yǔ)篇解讀：本文講述了Jessica聽從當(dāng)律師的父母的話成為一名律師，雖然工資高可是她并不開心。她加入唱詩(shī)班后發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的興趣所在，特別是媽媽得了癌癥后也鼓勵(lì)她追求自己的夢(mèng)想。

　　1．Which of the following is TRUE?

　　A．Jessica didn't really like working as a lawyer.

　　B．Jessica didn't know what she truly loved for ten years.

　　C．Jessica wasn't satisfied with the pay she got as a lawyer.

　　D．Jessica was grateful for her parents' arrangement for her.

　　答案：A　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句“I had a big salary but no personal satisfaction”，可知Jessica雖然薪水很高，但是沒(méi)有滿足感。

　　2．What does the underlined word “ailing” in Paragraph 3 mean?

　　A．Sick.B．Crazy.

　　C．Worried.

　　D．Unhappy.

　　答案：A　詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第三段第一句“It was her mom's diagnosis of brain cancer in 2009”根據(jù)媽媽患了腦癌，可推出這里是“疾病”的意思。

　　3．What was Jessica's mother's attitude towards her singing?

　　A．Unknown.

　　B．Doubtful.

　　C．Supportive.

　　D．Negative.

　　答案：C　判斷推理題。根據(jù)第三段倒數(shù)第二句“Before her mother passed away two years later, she encouraged Jessica to follow her dream.”在媽媽去世前的兩年里，媽媽鼓勵(lì)她追求自己的夢(mèng)想。

　　4．By telling Jessica's story, the writer most probably wants to ________.

　　A．encourage us to pursue our dreams

　　B．show that singing can be a practical career

　　C．tell us the importance of choosing a right job

　　D．show that family members' support is important

　　答案：A　主旨大意題。本文講述了Jessica聽從當(dāng)律師的父母的話成為一名律師，雖然工資高可是她并不開心。她加入唱詩(shī)班后發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的興趣所在，特別是媽媽得了癌癥后也鼓勵(lì)她追求自己的夢(mèng)想。

　　If you're considering having your children learn how to play an instrument, you may want your children to start out with piano lessons. Learning the piano can help to provide many surprising benefits to children. For example, the following are several great benefits your children will enjoy while learning to play the piano.

　　One great benefit of taking piano lessons is developing better hand-eye coordination(協(xié)調(diào)). Having good skills in hand-eye coordination is an important skill to have in life, and these skills are especially useful when it comes to writing. Also taking piano lessons will help improve your children's concentration. When children learn to play the piano, it takes quite a bit of concentration, especially when they have to concentrate on playing with both hands. Also, it takes concentration to read the notes and translate the rhythm(節(jié)奏) at the same time too.

　　As your children learn to play the piano and how notes make up music, they'll further understand how wonderful music can be. This musical appreciation early in their life will lead to a lifetime of musical appreciation.

　　When children learn to play the piano, they develop more confidence in themselves. Piano lessons are a challenge to your children and as they learn to practice and improve their performance, they'll build up even more confidence in themselves.

　　Believe it or not, studies have shown that children taking piano lessons actually perform better in school. When they learn to play the piano, it helps them understand many other ideas that are behind subjects like math and science.

　　As you can see, taking piano lessons can greatly benefit your children. Therefore, consider the benefits and give piano lessons to your children.

　　5．Compared with those taking no piano lessons, a child who takes piano lessons ________.

　　A．has better performance at school

　　B．does better in math and science

　　C．is better at appreciating beauty

　　D．is better at other musical instruments

　　答案：A　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段第一句可知，與不學(xué)習(xí)彈鋼琴的孩子相比，學(xué)習(xí)彈鋼琴的孩子在學(xué)校的表現(xiàn)會(huì)更好。

　　6．What can we infer from the passage?

　　A．Learning to play the piano is a difficult task.

　　B．Playing the piano is good for children's eyes.

　　C．Taking piano lessons is a great way to help kids develop.

　　D．Music is a great way to help people to get great achievements.

　　答案：C　推理判斷題。本文主要論述了學(xué)習(xí)彈鋼琴對(duì)孩子的益處。結(jié)合第二至五段中所給出的具體論述可知，讓孩子學(xué)習(xí)彈鋼琴不僅可訓(xùn)練孩子們的手眼協(xié)調(diào)能力，進(jìn)而改善他們的寫作能力，還可以培養(yǎng)他們的自信、專注的注意力、對(duì)音樂(lè)的欣賞能力等。這些都說(shuō)明了讓孩子學(xué)習(xí)彈鋼琴能夠促進(jìn)孩子的發(fā)展。

　　7．How many benefits of children's learning to play the piano are mentioned in the passage?

　　A．Four.

　　B．Five.

　　C．Six.

　　D．Seven.

　　答案：B　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第二段論述了學(xué)習(xí)彈鋼琴的兩個(gè)好處：提高手眼協(xié)調(diào)能力和改善注意力；第三段論述了一個(gè)好處：提高音樂(lè)鑒賞能力；第四段論述了一個(gè)好處：增強(qiáng)自信；第五段論述了一個(gè)好處：改善在學(xué)校的表現(xiàn)。綜上可知，全文共論述了學(xué)習(xí)彈鋼琴的五個(gè)好處。

　　8．The purpose of the last paragraph is to ________.

　　A．call on people of all ages to take piano lessons

　　B．stress the great benefits of musical education

　　C．remind readers of the advantages of taking piano lessons

　　D．encourage parents to have their children take piano lessons

　　答案：D　主旨大意。上文中論述了學(xué)習(xí)彈鋼琴的好處后，最后一段第一句先進(jìn)行了總結(jié)，接著給出了“Therefore，consider the benefits and give piano lessons to your children.”這一號(hào)召性的結(jié)語(yǔ)。由此可推知，作者是在鼓勵(lì)家長(zhǎng)讓孩子上鋼琴課。
