【正文】 grams encourage students to work together to produce an excellent performance. Music crosses language, class and culture. Music allows students from different countries to connect. For example, at a school talent show, a new Japanese student played a piano duet (二重奏) with an American classmate. Two students from different cultures worked as a team with selfconfidence and mon purpose through music. The gift of music is priceless. We need to be sure to have necessary music classes for all students. The world is losing its music, and putting music into schools is the first step to get it back.（1）The two studies seem to show that ________. with great success attend music lessons classes play an important role in students39。 growth all students could have music classes at school who have music classes do better in all subjects（2）The example in Paragraph 4 mainly suggests that ________. makes crosscultural munication possible cultures have different styles of music has a good relationship with America and American students are good at playing the piano（3）What can we learn about education with music classes? allows schools to make more money. can cause a lot of academic problems. will affect the world cultural munication greatly. does good to students39。 academic success and spiritual health.（4）What is the best title for the text? Importance of Music Classes in School—A Bridge to Understanding on Music Education to Get Music Back【答案】 （1）B（2）A（3）D（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，研究表明，全國各地的公立學校正在削減音樂課，以節(jié)省開支。但作者認為學生的學業(yè)成績似乎取決于他們是否參加音樂教育；音樂課程也有助于增強學生的自豪感和自信心，音樂跨越語言、階級和文化。音樂使來自不同國家的學生相互聯(lián)系。作者提出需要確保所有學生都參加必要的音樂課。 （1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“Students39。 academic success seems to depend on their taking part in music education. ”學生的學業(yè)成績似乎取決于他們是否參加音樂教育。上音樂課對學生的學業(yè)有幫助，故選B。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“Two students from different cultures worked as a team with selfconfidence and mon purpose through music. ”兩個來自不同文化背景的學生作為一個團隊通過音樂自信、有共同目標在一起合作。一個是日本學生，一個美國的學生，借由音樂而合作、交流。故選A。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“Students39。 academic success seems to depend on their taking part in music education. ”學生的學業(yè)成績似乎取決于他們是否參加音樂教育；第三段中的”Music programs in public schools also help to add to a student39。s sense of pride and selfconfidence. ”公立學校的音樂課程也有助于增強學生的自豪感和自信心。兩處結合，可以推斷出音樂即可以有助于學生的學業(yè)成績，又可以有益于學生的心理健康，故選D。 （4）考查主旨大意。根據(jù)第一段中的“But without them, students39。 academic (學術的) growth and spiritual health could suffer. In fact, music classes are necessary for all students in schools.” 但是，沒有他們（音樂），學生的學業(yè)提高和精神健康可能會受到影響。事實上，音樂課是學校所有學生所必需的。作者認為音樂課是重要的，這是文章的主旨，故選A。 【點評】本題考點涉及推理判斷和主旨大意兩個題型的考查，是一篇教育類閱讀，考生需要根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關系，進行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀理解 Food experts say washing could spread the germs on your turkey in the kitchen sink or nearby food. But it39。s been a challenge trying to convince cooks to stop rinsing (沖洗)off raw poultry. Germs that can make people sick are mon in the guts of healthy poultry and are legally allowed to be on raw turkey and chicken. The assumption is that nobody eats their poultry raw, and that thorough cooking will kill the bacteria. The do — not — wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn39。t caught on because it goes against the mon belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman. Benjamin Chapman, a study author and food safety expert at North Carolina State University, said the instinct to wash raw poultry goes back at least decades when people relied more on visual clues to spot problems with poultry. Meanwhile, washing hands and surfaces are also important. But food preparation is a plicated act, and germs from poultry can be spread even if it39。s not washed, especially when birds are removed from packaging. The USDAfunded study stresses that point. Researchers sprayed raw chicken with a harmless strain of E. coli (大腸桿菌)and watched volunteer cooks at test kitchens. Among those who washed their raw chicken, about a quarter ended up spreading the bacteria to their lettuce. But even some of those who did not rinse the chicken got germs on the lettuce. And there are other opportunities for germs to survive on turkeys: melting and cooking. To ensure a bird is thoroughly cooked, they say to use a thermometer to check that the deepest and thickest parts of it have reached 165 degrees. Even after the meal is cooked, you aren39。t out of the danger zone. To keep turkeys and other leftovers safe, experts say they should be refrigerated after two hours.（1）People don39。t accept USDA39。s advice because____. advice is relatively new seems more trustworthy clean the turkey before cooking it can kill most germs and no one eats raw food（2）What can be concluded from Paragraph 4? packages carry germs. and surfaces are easy to get E. coli. from a turkey can be spread whether it is washed or not. methods should be applied to food to get rid of germs.（3）Which way may help to cook a turkey safely? off the turkey before it is heated. the turkey away from the lettuce and refrigerator. hands and packages before taking out the turkey. a thermometer to check the temperature of the turkey.（4）From which section of a magazine is the text probably taken? ....【答案】 （1）B（2）C（3）D（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，食品專家說清洗可能會在廚房水槽或附近的食物中傳播火雞身上的細菌，但美國農業(yè)部的研究強調無論是否被清洗，火雞身上的細菌都會傳播，同時指出用溫度計檢查火雞的溫度有助于安全地烹飪火雞。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“The do — not — wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn39。t caught on because it goes against the mon belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman.”查普曼說，美國農業(yè)部提出的“不清洗生禽”的建議相對較新，但可能還沒有流行起來，因為這違背了人們普遍認為的“清洗可以使東西干凈”的觀念，可知，人們不接受美國農業(yè)部的建議是因為清洗似乎更值得信賴，故選B。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“Among those who washed their raw chicken, about a quarter ended up spreading the bacteria to their lettuce. But even some of those who did not rinse the chicken got germs on the lettuce. And there are other opportunities for germs to survive on turkeys: melting and cooking.”在那些清洗生雞肉的人中，約四分之一的人最終將細菌傳播到生菜上，但即使是一些沒有清洗雞肉的人，生菜上也有細菌，火雞身上的細菌還有
