【解析】

相聲是中國(guó)的一種傳統(tǒng)藝術(shù)形式，它形成于晚清時(shí)期，相聲能給人們帶來(lái)笑聲，所以受到了很多人們的喜愛。短文中給我們具體介紹了這一藝術(shù)形式。

【1】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)單詞所在的語(yǔ)境 “It is a famous Chinese show in the form(形式) of a dialogue usually between two people.”“它是著名的中國(guó)節(jié)目，形式通常是兩人之間的……”，結(jié)合常識(shí)可知，相聲是兩人之間的對(duì)話，因此dialogue意為“對(duì)話”，故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段 “It came into being in Beijing in the late Qing Dynasty (the mid-19th century).”可知，相聲形成于晚清時(shí)期，大概在19世紀(jì)中期。選項(xiàng)中B選項(xiàng)1850符合文意，故選B。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段 “Modern crosstalk usually has four skills—speaking, imitating(模仿), teasing(逗樂(lè)) and singing.”可知，現(xiàn)代相聲的四項(xiàng)基本技能是說(shuō)、學(xué)、逗、唱。故選A。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文最后一段 “Nowadays, you can watch it in tea houses and theatres. Of course, you can also listen to it on radio while taking a walk or driving a car. And you can watch it on TV with your families.”可知，現(xiàn)在我們聽相聲可以在茶館、劇院、在開車的時(shí)候從廣播里收聽或者在家里看電視，A、B和C三項(xiàng)都對(duì)，故選D。

【5】推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第二段 “Some stories come from everyday life, popular ideas and hot news. Some come from history stories”可知，相聲素材來(lái)自日常生活、流行的一些觀念和熱點(diǎn)新聞，還有些來(lái)自歷史故事，B選項(xiàng)符合文意，故選B。根據(jù)第一段中 “and it also borrowed from other arts, such as Beijing Opera.”可知A不對(duì)；根據(jù)第一段的最后 “the crosstalk show just wants to make people laugh.”可知C不對(duì)；根據(jù)第一段 “It came into being in Beijing in the late Qing Dynasty (the mid-19th century).”可知，相聲是在19世紀(jì)中期形成的，距今大約160年的歷史，沒有300年，故D不對(duì)。

這篇短文給我們介紹了相聲的歷史以及發(fā)展過(guò)程。短文主題明確，內(nèi)容貼近學(xué)生們的日常生活，相聲這種藝術(shù)形式學(xué)生們都比較熟悉，因此在理解上會(huì)比較容易。題型是閱讀理解，考查了細(xì)節(jié)理解、詞義猜測(cè)和推理判斷。細(xì)節(jié)題以考查對(duì)文章事實(shí)信息的理解為主，答案�？梢灾苯釉谠恼业�。做題時(shí)，可依據(jù)題目所問(wèn)，或利用題目中的關(guān)鍵詞，在短文中搜索相關(guān)信息作答。如第2小題，題目問(wèn)的是“相聲是什么時(shí)候形成的”，以come into being為關(guān)鍵詞，注意文章中與數(shù)字、年代相關(guān)的信息即可找到答案。再如第5小題，這是一個(gè)判斷題，考查學(xué)生對(duì)文章多處事實(shí)信息的理解，做題時(shí)，應(yīng)閱讀逐個(gè)選項(xiàng)，將每個(gè)選項(xiàng)在原文中進(jìn)行定位、對(duì)比，用排除法作答。

【題目】 Do you know there is a connection between music and language? You may not believe it. But recent studies give us the answer: Music can improve certain language abilities in the brain. Now, let's look at two examples.

Recently, researcher Kris has done a research which shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person's hearing ability. In his study, he divided the people into two groups. The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the other group had no musical training. He asked these people to listen to a person talking in a noisy room. As a result, the musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly.

You may wonder why. The answer is that musicians can hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds. Think about violinists. When they play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others’ too. But they must listen closely to what they are playing, and pay no attention to the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to focus on certain sounds, even in a room with lots of nose.

A doctor at Harvard Medical School works with stroke（中風(fēng)）patients. These people cannot say their name, addresses or other information normally because of their illness. However, they can still sing. He was surprised to find that singing words helped his patients to speak. Why does this work? The doctor isn’t sure. Music seems to make different parts of the brain work, including the damaged（損壞的）parts. This might help patients to use that part of the brain again.

Music can improve concentration（注意力）, memory, listening skills and overall language abilities. It can even help sick people get better. Playing an instrument or singing can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp as we get older. Music is not only enjoyable but also good for us in many other ways.

【1】Musicians can hear better in a noisy room because they_________

A.can focus on certain soundsB.are cleverer than normal people

C.are trained to hear noisesD.have a gift in this

【2】The underlined word "sharp" probably means “_________"in the last paragraph.

A.quick to reactB.having a thin edge

C.strong or forcefulD.sudden and rapid

【3】What is the passage mainly about'?

A.Music can improve our hearing abilities.B.The relationship between music and language.

C.Music can keep our brain clear.D.Singing words can help sick people.

【題目】 The view you hold for yourself greatly affects the way you lead your life. It can decide whether you become the person you want to be and whether you achieve the things you value. How does this happen? How can a simple belief have the power to change your psychology(心理) and, as a result, your life?

Believing that your qualities are carved(刻) in stone — the fixed mindset — creates a great need to prove yourself over and over. Some of us are trained in this mindset from an early age. Even as a child, I was focused on being smart, but the fixed mindset was really stamped in by Mrs. Wilson, my sixth-grade teacher. She believed that people’s IQ scores told the whole story of who they were. We were seated around the room in IQ order, and only the highest-IQ students could be trusted to collect homework, or take a note to the principal. She was creating a mindset in which everyone in the class had one important goal-look smart, don’t look stupid.

I’ve seen so many people with this one important goal of proving themselves — in the classroom, in their careers, and in their relationships. Every situation calls for a confirmation of their IQ, personality, or character. Every situation is evaluated(評(píng)價(jià)): Will I succeed or fail? Will I look smart or stupid? Will I feel like a winner or a loser?

But doesn’t our society value IQ, personality, and character? Isn’t it normal to want these qualities? Yes, but ...

There’s another mindset, the growth mindset, which is based on the belief that your basic qualities are things you can develop through your efforts. Although people may differ in every which way — in their inborn talents, interests, or characters, everyone can change and grow through efforts and experience. Did you know that Darwin and Tolstoy were considered ordinary children? That the photographer Cindy Sherman, who has been on almost every list of the most important artists of the twentieth century, failed her first photography course? That Geraldine Page, one of our greatest actresses, was advised to give it up for lack of talent?

You can see how the belief that valuable qualities can be developed creates a passion(熱情) for learning. Why waste time proving how great you are, when you could be getting better? Why hide weaknesses instead of overcoming them? And why seek out the tried and true, instead of experiences that will better you? The passion for improving yourself and sticking to it, even when it’s not going well, is the feature(特征) of the growth mindset. This is the mindset that allows people to achieve success during some of the most challenging times in their lives.

【1】According to Paragraph 5, the example of Darwin and Tolstoy shows that _________

A.success has nothing to do with natural gifts.

B.it’s difficult to predict one’s future success.

C.achievements can be made through hard work.

D.the valuable qualities can encourage people to learn.

【2】The author strongly believes that we should _________

A.carry out an honest evaluation of our qualities.

B.see success as the only way to prove IQ or talent.

C.focus on self-development rather than self-proving.

D.believe good things will happen during difficult times.

【3】The main purpose of the passage is to _________

A.lead people to take the right mindset.

B.advise people to evaluate their mindset.

C.get people to know the influence of mindset.

D.explain the differences between two mindsets.
