【解析】本文主要谈论怎样选择学习演奏一种乐器。许多人想学习如何演奏一种乐器，但他们被一个大问题拖延着：演奏什么乐器。这里有几个问题可以帮助你决定：什么乐器适合你？什么是更好的选择？在哪里练习？多少钱你买得起？还不确定怎么办呢？

【1】句意：什么适合你？根据下文Many instruments are of different uses, but some are more fit for certain music. Some instruments may help you enjoy the music you like, so consider this before you start.（许多乐器有不同的用途，但有些乐器更适合某些音乐。一些乐器可以帮助你欣赏你喜欢的音乐，所以在你开始播放之前考虑一下。）结合句意可知选E。

【2】句意：什么是更好的选择？根据下文If you want to play with other people, what kind of instrument would be better? Your first thought of playing the violin, for example, might disappear when too many people are competing with you！（如果你想和别人一起玩，用什么乐器比较好？举个例子，当有太多人在和你竞争时，你第一次演奏小提琴的念头可能会消失！）结合句意可知选F。

【3】句意：在哪里练习？根据下文Many people live in flats and practicing the drums, for example, will drive your neighbors crazy. Think about where and when you are going to practice, as well as the feelings of the people you live with or near.（例如，许多人住在公寓里，练习打鼓会使你的邻居发疯。想想你在什么地方，什么时候去练习，以及与你同住的人或附近的人的感受。）结合句意可知选B。

【4】句意：多少钱你买得起？根据下文This is quite true that many instruments can be bought at different prices. But this doesn't change the fact that many, such as the piano, are always pretty expensive. If you can't afford your chosen instrument，will you be able to borrow someone else's or hire one.（许多乐器可以以不同的价格买到，这是千真万确的。但这并不能改变这样一个事实：许多乐器，比如钢琴，总是很贵。如果你买不起你选择的乐器，你能借别人的还是租一个？。）结合句意可知选C。

【5】句意：还不确定吗？根据下文Talk to people you know who already play instruments. They might even let you try theirs. It's also a good idea to find an experienced music teacher who can give you some advice and push you in the right direction.（和已经玩过乐器的人交谈。他们甚至会让你试试他们的乐器。找一位经验丰富的音乐老师，给你一些建议，并指引你向正确的方向，这也是个好主意。）结合句意可知选A。
