解析本文使用倒叙的形式述说了 Dorothy学习音乐的故事。一开始说小女儿举办音乐会,由女儿美丽的歌声想到自己年轻时候学习音乐的情况。Dorothy年轻时很有音乐天赋,先后在法国、意大利和美国学习音乐。不过由于偶遇 David并相爱,为了爱情而放弃了音乐的学习。不过让她可以感到欣慰的是女儿已成为歌唱家,完成了她的心愿。
1. C。由下文的“这一时刻她等了好多年了”来看,这里说的是女儿第一次演出。由于演唱会还没有开始,结果未知,因此可排除选项 A、B和D。
2. B。由下文知道,Dorothy Brown也曾学习过音乐,但由于认识 David并结婚而影响了自己在音乐方面的发展,现在正好让女儿来完成自己的心愿。由此可知,她“盼望这一时刻好多年了”。
3. A。由“今天小女儿 Lauren将举办演唱会”来看,此处说的是“她的声音真美”。
4. C。女儿的演出使她想到了和女儿一般大的时候的事情。下面是回忆自己以往学习音乐的情况。go back to the days…意为“回忆起……的日子”。
5. A。从下面的“当还是一个年轻姑娘时,Dorothy想成为一名歌唱演员”来看,Dorothy在和女儿差不多大的时候也曾学习过音乐。
6. D。当 Dorothy还是个小女孩时,她想成为一名歌唱演员。
7. B。由上下文可知“她曾在法国、意大利和美国学习过音乐”。
8. C。由上下文可知,此处是老师告诉她以后有能力成为一名出色的歌唱家。
9. A。前面说“你有能力成为一名出色的歌唱家”,现在话锋一转,“但是你必须愿意努力学习、刻苦勤奋很多年”。be prepared to do sth表示“有能力并且愿意做某事”。
10. C。这是老师继续说的话:在你一生中要把全部时间用于音乐,不能用在其他方面
11. B。由 Dorothy遇到了 David并与他结婚等来看,当时她的年龄不可能是 8岁、80岁或 88岁,当时 Dorothy为 18岁比较合理。
12. B。/13. A。听了老师的话,再加上当时她只有 18岁,“她确信音乐是充实她生活的全部内容”。fill one’s life为“填充生活,充实生活”。
14. D。有接近一年的时间,Dorothy什么也不想,这里说的是她一心扑在学习音乐上。
15. D。前面说她有一年的时间把心思全扑在学习音乐上,这里说的是“接着她遇到了在欧洲旅游的 David”,这动摇了她学习音乐的念头。meet with意为“遇到,偶然碰到”。
16. A。从下文 David要她做他的妻子及 Dorothy也想嫁给他等来看,这里说的是他们见面后不久就相爱了。fall in love (with sb / sth)意为“爱上某人或某物”。
17. C。从上文“他们相爱”可推测,此处说的是“David要她做他的妻子”。
18. D。Dorothy也想嫁给 David,“但是她也爱音乐”,她不知道怎么办,这就在嫁人与学习音乐方面产生了矛盾。
19. B。下文 David说学习音乐和结婚,“你二者不可能兼得”。possibly可以与 can’t连用,表示“不可能”。
20. B。从上下文特别是 Now Lauren became a singer instead of her可推测,Dorothy想成为歌唱家的愿望由女儿来完成了,故此处用 hope。will往往含有“遗嘱,遗愿”的意思,在此不太合乎情理。
