【解析】本文介紹貝多芬作為一個偉大的作曲家之所以偉大是因為他在失聰之后創(chuàng)作出驚世之作。
⑴句意：貝多芬的臉很丑，脾氣很壞。good好的；better更好的；bad差的；壞的；worse更糟糕的。and前的ugly是原級，所以此處用形容詞的原形，所以答案是C。
⑵句意：但是人們喜歡請他到他們家里。A不喜歡請；B喜歡邀請；C不喜歡帶；D喜歡讓……。根據(jù)句意可知表示“喜歡邀請他”所以答案是B。
⑶句意：在一場大病之后，他突然發(fā)現(xiàn)自己聾了。look for尋找；find發(fā)現(xiàn)；find out查明；look at看。搭配：find+賓語+形容詞，發(fā)現(xiàn)某人怎么樣，所以答案是B。
⑷句意：那時候只有31歲。just只是；just now剛才；still仍然；even甚至。根據(jù)句意可知此處說他還很年輕，所以答案是A。
⑸句意：但是這并沒有阻止貝多芬在生命中繼續(xù)前進(jìn)。because因為；as因為；but但是；so所以，根據(jù)上下午可知此處表示轉(zhuǎn)折，所以答案是C。
⑹句意：但是這并沒有阻止貝多芬在生命中繼續(xù)前進(jìn)。stop sb from doing sth阻止某人做某事，所以答案是D。
⑺句意：他繼續(xù)寫很多音樂。go on doing sth繼續(xù)做某事（同一件事），所以答案是D。
⑻句意：他寫了長曲、短曲、愉快的曲子和悲傷的曲子。wonderful精彩的；sad傷心的；hard難的；strong強(qiáng)壯的。根據(jù)前文可知與happy對應(yīng)，所以答案是B。
⑼句意：他一生中創(chuàng)作了大約300首樂曲，令人們吃驚的是，他寫的一些最好的最美麗的曲子是在他失聰之后。短語：to one's surprise令某人吃驚的是，所以答案是D。
⑽before在……之前；until直到……；after在……之后；if如果。根據(jù)句意可知是在失聰之后寫出最美的曲子才讓人感到吃驚。所以答案是C。
