分析 本文是学生熟悉的校园生活,描写了主人公对音乐由最初的排斥甚至不屑到热爱的心路历程.

解答 36-40 DDACB     41-45 ADCBD    46-50 AACBC      51-55 ADBBC 
36.D  考查动词辨析.结合句意,Gabriel 同情地看着那些音乐学生带着沉重的乐器箱在学校里艰难(struggle)行进.travel 意为"旅行,移动",march 意为"行军,前进",pace 意为"踱步",语气上不如 struggle 能体现出"可怜的感觉",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
37.D  考查动词短语辨析.结合文意,在练习时间出现(turn up)在学校.rise up 意为"升起,起义",come up 意为"走近,发生,被提出",drive up 意为"抬高,开车到…",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
38.A  考查连词辨析  结合文意,音乐系的学生们要在其他学生出现在学校之前(before)练习数个小时.There 指代 school,表示音乐系的学生们很早到校练习.after 意为"在…之后",until 意为"直到…",since 意为"自从…".均不符合文意.故正确答案为A.
39.C 考查动词辨析.结合上文,Gabriel 一点也不想卷入音乐学习中.以及后文提到"as he hated getting to school extra early",因为他讨厌过早到校.因此可以推测文意为他向自己发誓避免(avoid)音乐.betray 意为"背叛",accept 意为"接受",appreciate 意为"欣赏".均不符合文意. 故正确答案为C.
40.B  考查副词辨析  结合后文,Gabriel 在音乐课上随意地弹了钢琴,被老师发现其擅长音乐.与前文提到 Gabriel 讨厌音乐形成了转折关系,因此 however 意为"然而"符合文意.Therefore 意为"因此"表递进,thus 意为"因此"表递进,moreover 意为"此外"表递进.均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.
41.A  考查名词辨析. 结合文意可知,音乐课应该是学校课程的一部分(part).basis 意为"基础",由于后文已经说了 standard curriculum,因此 basis 导致句意重复,逻辑不通.nature 意为"自然",spirit 意为"精神",均不符合文意.故正确答案为A.
42.D 考查形容词辨析.结合文意可知,他随意地弹奏着钢琴,发现很容易(easy)就弹奏出了曲调.complicate 意为"使复杂化",safe 意为"安全的",confusing 意为"混乱的,使人困惑的",均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
43.C  考查动词辨析.结合文意,带着不安的情绪他意识到他实际上享受弹钢琴,与后文 Gabriel 努力隐藏他的快乐形成呼应.miss 意为"想念;错过",dislike 意为"不喜欢",deny 意为"否认".均不符合文意.故正确答案为C.
44. B 考查近义词辨析和上下文串联.Gabriel不想让音乐老师看到自己表露出来的很明显的喜悦之情,transparent指(谎言、借口)易看穿的;obvious明显的,显然的,故选B.
45.D  考查动词辨析.结合文意,他努力隐藏来自徘徊着(wander)倾听的音乐老师的快乐.run 意为"跑",jog 意为"慢跑",jump 意为"跳".均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
46.A 考查上下文串联.根据"and suggested that Gabriel go into the music store-room to see if any of the instruments"可知,老师让Gabriel挑选乐器,说明他弹得不够好,钢琴不太适合他,因此是因果关系.故选A.
47.A 考查近义词辨析和上下文串联.老师认为Gabriel有着很好辨音能力,并建议他去挑一件称心的乐器.
ear辨音力,灵敏的听力;taste鉴赏力,欣赏力,指对作品的欣赏能力.由于Gabriel没有经过专业的训练,不能说他有很好的音乐鉴赏能力,taste不符合语境.故选A.
48.C  考查动词辨析.结合文意,老师告诉Gabriel 有很好的辨音能力并且建议他去音乐商店看看有没有吸引(appealed to)他的乐器.occur to意为"突然想起",take to 意为"开始喜欢",为主动的"喜欢",hold to 意为"抓住".均不符合文意.故正确答案为C.
49.B  考查名词辨析.结合文意,他决定给大提琴一个机会(chance).change 意为"改变",mission 意为"任务",function 意为"功能".均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.
50.C  考查副词辨析.结合文意,开始练习时,他非常随意地(casually)对待它.但是他很快发现他热爱演奏这个乐器并且坚定的练习.由 but 可知前后句为对比关系,seriously 意为"认真地;严重地",proudly 意为"骄傲地",admitted 意为"公认的".均不符合文意.故正确答案为C.
51.A  考查动词辨析  结合文意,并且很坚定地(committed)练习大提琴以至于在几个月内演奏的相当的好.used 意为"习惯的;二手的",limited 意为"有限的",admitted 意为"公认的;被承认的".均不符合文意.故正确答案为A.
52.D  考查动词辨析.结合文意,这意味着(mean)他要到校很早.This 指代前文提到的 Gabriel 练习大提琴.stress意为"强调;使紧张",prove 意为"证明;检验",show 意为"展示".均不符合文意.故正确答案为D.
53.B  考查动词辨析.结合文意,拖着(drag)他沉重的乐器箱穿过校园.与文章第一段相呼应.push 意为"推",lift 意为"举起",rush 意为"赶;抢".均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.
54.B 考查动词辨析.结合文意,非音乐生怜悯的(pitying)看法.与文章第一段相呼应.admire 意为"钦佩;赞美",annoy 意为"骚扰;使烦恼",tease 意为"取笑;戏弄".均不符合文意.故正确答案为B.

点评 非等距离挖空的命题方式是完形填空的最大特色.短文首句不挖空,以便为考生理解全文留下足够信息,命题者根据考查目的进行挖空,造成信息链中断,这就要求考生依据上下文的文意捕捉到空白处的缺词.从近几年高考完形填空题看,纯语法知识几乎不考,主要考查考生灵活运用所学词汇的能力,尤其是以考查实词或信息词为主,着重考查考生对文章的内在逻辑和整体把握能力.因此,把握句间和段落之间的内在逻辑关系,通过上下文暗示,对篇章、段落或句意的整体把握;再则,干扰项的设置与语法结构无甚关系,重在文意干扰.因此,把握文意和具体语境,通过对词义的辨析,是解完形填空的最好手段.

3.Population Change      Why is the world's population growing?The answer is not what you might think.The reason for the explosion is not that people have been reproducing like rabbits,but that people have stopped dropping dead like flies.In 1900,people died at the average age of 30.By 2000 the average age was 65.But while increasing health was a typical feature of the 20th century,declining birth rate could be a defining one of the 21st.
      Statistics show that the average number of births per woman has fallen from 4.9 in the early 1960s to 2.5 nowadays.Furthermore,around 50% of the world's population live in regions where the figure is now below the replacement level(i.e.2.1 births per woman)and almost all developed nations are experiencing sub-repalanement birth rate.You might think that developing nations would make up the loss(especially since 80% of the world's people now live in such nations),but you'd be wrong,Declining birth rate is a major problem in many developing regions too,which might cause catastrophic global shortages of work force within a few decades.
      A great decline in young work force is likely to occur in China,for instance.What does it imply?First,China needs to undergo rapid economic development before a population decline hits the country.Sencond,if other factors such as technology remain constant,economic growth and material expectations will fall well below recent standards and this could invite trouble.
      Russia is another country with population problems that could break its economic promise.Since 1992 the number of people dying has been bigger than that of those being born by a massive 50%,Indeed official figures suggest the country has shrunk by 5% since 1993 and people in Russia live a shorter life now than those in 1961.Why is this occurring?Nobody is quite sure,but poor diet an above all long-time alcoholism have much to do with it.If current trends don't bend.Russia's population will be about the size of Yemen's by the year 2050.
      In the north of india,the population is booming due to high birth rates,but in the south,where most econmoic development is taking place,birth rate is falling rapidly.In a further twist,birth rate is highest in poorly educated rural arceas an lowest in highly educated urban areas.In total,25% of India's working-age population has no education.In 2030,a sixth of the country's potential work force could be totally uneducated.
      One solution is obviously to import foreign workers via immigration.As for the USA,it is almost unique among developed nations in having a population that is expected to grow by 20% from 2010-2030,Moreover,the USA has a track record of successfully accepting immigrants.As a result it's likely to see a rise in the size of its working-age population and to witness strong economic growth over the longer term.
