A composer writes a work, but no one can hear it until it is performed. Professional singers and players have great responsibilities, for the composer is utterly dependent on them. A student of music needs as long as arduous （费劲的）a training to become a performer as a medical student needs to become a doctor. Most training is concerned with technique, for musicians have to have the muscular proficiency of an athlete or a ballet dancer.

How does it happen that children learn their mother tongue so well? When we compare them with adults learning a foreign language, we often find this interesting fact. A little child without knowledge or experience often succeeds in a complete mastery of the language. A grown-up person with fully developed mental powers, in most cases, may end up with a faulty and inexact command. What accounts for this difference? Despite other explanations, the real answer in my opinion lies partly in the child himself, partly in the behavior of the people around him. In the first place, the time of learning the mother tongue is the most favorable of all, namely, the first years of life. A child hears it spoken from morning till night and, what is more important, always in its genuine (纯正的) form, with the right pronunciation, right intonation, and right use of words and right structure. He drinks in all the words and expressions which come to him in a fresh, ever bubbling spring. There is no resistance: there is perfect assimilation (同化). Then the child has, as it were, private lessons all the year round, while an adult language student has each week a limited number of hours which he generally shaves with others. The child has another advantage: he hears the language in all possible situations, always accompanied by the right kind of gestures and facial expressions. Here there is nothing unnatural, as is often found in language lessons in schools, when one talks about ice and snow in June or scorching (炎热的) heat in January. And what a child hears is generally what immediately interests him. Again and again, when his attempts at speech are successful, his desires are understood and fulfilled. Finally, though a child’s “teachers” may not have been trained in language teaching, their relations with him are always close and personal. They take great pains to make their lessons easy. 1. Compared with adults learning a foreign language, children learn their native 第 3 页 bow to and fro with the right arm-two entirely different movements. Singers and instrumentalists have to be able to get every note perfectly in tune. Pianists are spared this particular anxiety, for the notes are already there, waiting for them, and it is the piano tuner’s responsibility to tune the instrument for them. But they have their own difficulties: the hammers that hit the strings have to be coaxed not to sound like percussion （撞击）and each overlapping tone has to sound clear. This problem of getting clear texture is one that confronts student conductors: they have to learn to know every note of the music and how it should sound, and they have to aim at controlling these sounds with fanatical （狂热的）but selfless authority. Technique is of no use unless it is combined with musical knowledge and understanding. Great artists are those who are so thoroughly at home in the language of music that they can enjoy performing works written in any century. 11. Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage? A. It is easier to study medicine than music. B. Painters and composers use totally different methods to reach the public. C. All musicians must know how to time their own instruments. D. Musicians must acquire technique and understanding to perform well. 12. According to the passage, performers could best meet their obligation to composers by doing which of the following? A. Taking courses in art appreciation. B. Knowing how the music was intended to be performed. C. Studying works written at different periods in history. D. Rearranging musical scores for their particular instrument. 13. Why does the author mention athletes and ballet dancers? A. To contrast the requirements of each field of study. B. To discourage music students from continuing their studies. C. To motivate students to work harder to achieve their goals. D. To show that music students must develop great physical coordination. 14. According to the passage, the advantage that pianists have over other instrumentalists is that they do NOT_____________. A. tune their own instruments. B. practice as often. C. use their muscles. D. aim for clarity of sound. 15. What’s the passage mostly likely to discuss in detail in the following paragraphs? A. How to grasp the technique of performing. B. How to acquire the understanding of music. C. How to educate first-class performers. D. How to write successful compositions. 第 4 页 第三部分：概括段落大意和补全句子(第16～25题。每题1分。共10分) 阅读下面短文，请完成短文后的2项测试任务：(1)从第16～20题后所给的6个选项中为第①～⑤段每段选择1个正确的小标题;(2)从第21～25题后所给的6个选项中选择5个正确选项。分别完成每个句子。 Local Newspapers in Britain ① Britain has a large circulation （发行量）of the national newspapers. The Daily Mirror and The Daily Express both sell about 4 million copies each day. On average, every family will buy one newspaper in the morning, and take two or three on Sundays. ② Local newspapers are just as popular as the national ones in Britain. Local papers have a weekly circulation of 13 million. Nearly every town and country area has its own paper, and almost every local paper is financially holding its own. Many local newspapers are earning good profits. ③ Local newspapers have their special characteristics. They mainly satisfy interest in local events---births, weddings, deaths, council meetings, and sports. Editors often rely on a small staff of people who know the district well. Clubs and churches in the neighborhood regularly supply these papers with much local news. Local news does not get out of date as quickly as national news. If there is no room for it in this week’s edition, a news item can be held over until the following week. ④ The editor of a local newspaper never forgets that the success of any newspaper depends on advertising. For this reason, he is keen to keep the good will of local businessmen. If the newspaper sells well with carefully chosen news items to attract local readers, the businessmen will be grateful to the paper for the opportunity of keeping their products in the public eye. ⑤ Local newspapers seldom comment on problems of national importance, and editors rarely take sides on political questions. But they can often provide service to the community in expressing public feeling on local issues. A newspaper can sometimes persuade the council to take action to improve transport, provide better shopping facilities, and preserve local monuments and places of interest. Task 1 16.
