　　C．giving; disappointing; boring

　　D．given; disappointing; bored

　　答案：D　句意：那位老教授的報告似乎很令人失望而且沒完沒了，他如此厭煩以至于都快睡著了。given by that old professor是過去分詞短語作后置定語修飾speech。句中是說報告讓人失望，所以用disappointing。后一句描述的是他的感受，因此用bored。

　　(2011·河南平許駐洛四市重點高中高三聯考)

　　Many studies have been conducted to discover the benefits of listening to and playing music. The growing field of “music treatment” is presenting increasing amounts of proof that point to the great powers of music.

　　Emotional (情緒)benefits

　　The right song can put anybody in a better mood. Most people turn to certain songs to improve their moods. The main reason behind this is that music can express our feelings better than any other medium. In addition, we have favourite songs for particular situations because we turn to the music which has the best effect on us.

　　Music and exercise

　　Have you ever noticed how out of breath you get when listening to an exciting song while doing exercises at the gym? It has been suggested that exciting music can actually increase muscle tension (肌肉緊張), while light music does the opposite.

　　It has also been proved that music can improve motor skills. An experiment conducted on a group of pupils proved that children learning basic motor skills such as throwing, catching and jumping while listening to music did better than those with no music.

　　Relief (減輕) of chronic (慢性的) pain

　　Music also has the ability to ease chronic pain. In fact according to a paper published in the Journal of Advanced Nursing, music can reduce chronic pain by 21%. The paper reports that 60 patients in an experiment were divided into two groups—one of the group listened to music, and the other did not. The results showed that people who listened to music for an hour each day for a week improved physically and psychologically while those who did not listen to music did not.

　　音樂帶給大家的不僅僅是聽覺的享受，還有許許多多的益處。

　　1．The best title of the passage is ________.

　　A．The Study of Music

　　B．The Benefits of Music

　　C．How Music Helps Patients

　　D．Music Helps to Improve Work Efficiency

　　答案：B　標題歸納題。文章開門見山地指出很多研究表明音樂有很多益處，再結合下文三個小標題的內容可判斷本文闡述的是音樂的益處。

　　2．Why do people turn to songs to feel better?

　　A．Because songs have magic.

　　B．Because listening to music is their hobby.

　　C．Because they can find comfort in songs.

　　D．Because some music has a good effect on them.

　　答案：D　細節理解題。根據第二段最后一句后半部分中的內容可判斷D項正確。

　　3．If we want to relax our muscles, we should choose ______.

　　A．rock and roll

　　B．some exciting songs

　　C．light music

　　D．classical songs

　　答案：C　推理判斷題。第三段的后半部分提到強勁的音樂能增加肌肉的緊張程度，而輕音樂則相反。由此可推斷，假如想讓肌肉放松，應該選擇“輕音樂”。

　　4．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

　　A．music can cure muscle pain slowly

　　B．21% of the patients recovered quickly with the help of music

　　C．all the patients listened to music daily

　　D．the 60 patients all have physical and psychological problems

　　答案：D　推理判斷題。既然聽音樂的試驗者的身體和精神狀況得到了改善，由此可推斷另外一組人的身體和精神也存在問題。

　　Ⅴ.短文改錯

　　假定英語課上老師要求同桌之間交換修改作文，請你修改你同桌寫的以下作文。文中共有10處語言錯誤，每句中最多有兩處。錯誤涉及一個單詞的增加、刪除或修改。

　　增加：在缺詞處加一個漏詞符號()，并在其下面寫出該加的詞。

　　刪除：把多余的詞用斜線()劃掉

　　修改：在錯的詞下畫一橫線，并在其下面寫出修改后的詞。

　　注意：1.每處錯誤及其修改均僅限一詞；

　　2．只允許修改10處，多者(從第11處起)不計分。

　　I want to work as a tour guide after my graduation from college. The first reason is that I can devote myself for work after years of hard learning. Be interested in my career, I will fix my mind on my job to show my talent and make a contribution to the

　　society, but I can realize the meaning of life. Secondly, I can make my dream of traveling around the world came true. While experiencing difference cultures, I will give my helping hands to who are in need of help along my way. Last, it was high time that I should shoulder the duties. I should do something for my parents and other family member because they had been giving so much love to them while I was growing up.
