本文讲述了音乐家赚钱的方式。如今英国的年轻人很少去音乐商店,现在许多年轻人会嘲笑从音乐商店购买CD的想法。一些年轻的英国乐队正在尝试一些有趣的赚钱方式。弗朗茨·斐迪南摇滚乐队用他们自己的品牌让人们对他们的玩具、包包、书籍甚至短裤感兴趣。英国音乐界的其他一些大腕也加入了这一行列。

1句意:如果你20多岁,它可能是一张CD

根据“it was a CD”句子结构完整,所以此处缺副词,结合所给单词probable,以le结尾,去ey,故答案为probably

2句意:十多年前,你走进一家音乐商店,买了它。

根据“and bought it”可知,此处也是一般过去时,go的过去式是went,故答案为went

3句意:这就是音乐家赚钱的方式。

根据“Then a part of the money went to the band or the singer”然后一部分钱给了乐队或歌手,所以此处是方式,故答案为how

4句意:现在许多年轻人会嘲笑从音乐商店购买CD的想法。

根据“the idea of ”可知此处缺-ing,介词+doing,结合所给单词,故答案为buying

5句意:当然这是违法的。

根据“They get music from the Internet without paying”他们从网上免费下载音乐,结合常识,可知这是违法的,故答案为against

6句意:最近的一项调查发现,每个青少年的手机上都有大约800首来自互联网的免费歌曲。

根据“recent survey ”是辅音音素开头的单数可数名词,所以此处用“a”,放句首,需大写。故答案为A

7句意:一些年轻的英国乐队正在尝试一些有趣的赚钱方式。

尝试有趣的方式的目的是为了赚钱,所以此处缺动词不定式作目的状语,结合所给单词,故答案为to make

8句意:但现在他们需要更有创造力。

分析句子“bands could make some money from T-shirts, CDs and pictures ___8___ they need to be more creative now.”可知此处缺连词,结合句意,这两句话之间是转折关系,表示现在和过去的赚钱方式不一样了。故答案为but

9句意:弗朗茨·斐迪南摇滚乐队用他们自己的品牌让人们对他们的玩具、包包、书籍甚至短裤感兴趣。

根据keep 后接形容词作宾语补足语,结合修饰“people”,所以此处用-ed,结合所给单词,故答案为interested

10句意:酷玩乐队为他们的新歌制作水瓶。

根据water bottle表示水瓶,结合“bottle”是可数名词,所以此处用复数,故答案为bottles

短文填空:

1. 通读短文知大意,看整体全面了解。

2. 复读短文抓信息,前后照应巧猜词。

3. 反复推敲多分析,慎重答题讲合理。
