Unit 5　Rhythm 能力提升题组训练(A)‎ Ⅰ.阅读(2019广东中山一中高三联考)‎ When he was young,Louis Armstrong was taking what was called “Creole jazz”,which was also called dance music,and combining it with trumpeter(小号手) Buddy Bolden,to create what would eventually become today’s jazz.‎ Armstrong accomplished this with almost no formal training.He received little training before he was placed in the New Orleans Colored Waif’s Home at the age of 12,after a run-in(小争执) with the police.The punishment turned out to be a mixed blessing,for he also had the opportunity to play in a real band.‎ While at the Waif’s,Armstrong also got the chance to hear some of the city’s finest musicians.Cornetist Freddie Keppard performed in a nearby club.So did trumpeter and bandleader King Joe Oliver,who took the boy under his wing and taught him how to read music and work on his playing technique.‎ When Oliver left for Chicago,Armstrong chose to stay in New Orleans and work with some of the other top musicians of the day.In Chicago,King Joe Oliver offered him a place in his band in 1922.It ‎ became Armstrong’s biggest challenge yet—the band had no parts written for trumpet,so he was forced to listen to King Oliver and improvise(即兴创作).‎ Soon,Armstrong’s undeniable talent was getting noticed.Even classically trained musicians would come to hear the incredible sounds this young man created.‎ Lil Hardin,the band’s piano player and the future Mrs.Armstrong,explained that Oliver kept Armstrong in the second trumpet-chair so that Oliver would still be “King”.Hardin convinced him to leave the band.‎ Armstrong moved to New York City in 1924 to join Fletcher Henderson’s band and then flew solo.In 1925,Armstrong put together the Hot Five,expanding his popularity even more.Armstrong recorded his first composition,Cornet Chop Suey,one of the most copied jazz solos of all time.This monumental 1928 recording blends(混合) artistry,endurance and showmanship that has rarely,if ever,been matched in jazz.‎ ‎1.What does the underlined word “this” refer to in the second paragraph?‎ A.To play dance music. B.To work with Buddy Bolden.‎ C.To play a jazz instrument well. D.To create modern jazz music.‎ ‎2.Who taught Louis Armstrong how to play music in the early time?‎ A.Buddy Bolden. B.Lil Hardin.‎ C.King Joe Oliver. D.Cornetist Freddie Keppard.‎ ‎3.Why did Louis Armstrong leave King Oliver’s band?‎ A.Because he wanted to get married in New York. B.Because his talent could not develop completely.‎ C.Because he got a better opportunity in New York. D.Because the man forced him to leave the band.‎ ‎4.What’s the main idea of the passage?‎ A.It asks readers to know more about modern jazz. B.It introduces one of the greatest jazz musicians.‎ C.It introduces the development of jazz. D.It describes the importance of talent in playing jazz.‎ 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要是介绍了路易斯·阿姆斯特朗对音乐的追求情况。路易斯·阿姆斯特朗是爵士乐坛无人不知、无人不晓的人物,他从小就对音乐很感兴趣,后来他的才华慢慢显露,有了很高的成就。‎ 答案及剖析:‎ ‎1.D　猜测指代题。根据第一段中的When he was young,Louis Armstrong was taking what was called “Creole jazz”,which was also called dance music,and combining it with trumpeter(小号手) Buddy Bolden,to create what would eventually become today’s jazz.Armstrong accomplished this with almost no formal training.可知路易斯·阿姆斯特朗年轻的时候他就创造了舞蹈音乐,后来他和号手巴迪·‎ 博尔登一起创造了爵士乐,阿姆斯特朗几乎在没有任何正规训练的基础上就完成了爵士乐的创造,故this指代“创造现代爵士乐”。故选D。‎ ‎2.C　细节理解题。根据第三段中的So did trumpeter and bandleader King Joe Oliver,who took the boy under his wing and taught him how to read music and work on his playing technique.号手兼领队的King Joe Oliver将阿姆斯特朗收入门下,并教他如何读懂音乐以及一些音乐技巧。故选C。‎ ‎3.B　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的Oliver kept Armstrong in the second trumpet-chair so that Oliver would still be “King”.Hardin convinced him to leave the band.可知,Oliver 让阿姆斯特朗在第二号手的位置,那样的话阿姆斯特朗的才华得不到充分的发挥,因此Hardin劝说阿姆斯特朗离开乐队。故选B。‎ ‎4.B　主旨大意题。文章主要是介绍了路易斯·阿姆斯特朗对音乐的追求情况。路易斯·阿姆斯特朗是爵士乐坛无人不知、无人不晓的人物,他从小就对音乐很感兴趣,后来他慢慢才华显露,有了很高的成就。故选B。‎ Ⅱ.七选五(2020山东模考)‎ The Hotel Wake-up Call Gets Personal Here’s a wake-up call:The hotel front desk will do one better than ringing your phone in the morning.They’ll send an actual human being to your room.Don’t worry.They won’t come in and kiss you good morning.1.　　 ‎ Never mind that most travelers nowadays have smart phones with ‎ built-in alarm clocks.2.　　　 Here are some examples.At the Wolcott Hotel,if a wake-up call is unanswered,they will send an employee to your door.At Las Ventanas al Paraiso,an employee shows up at your room to wake you up with tea,coffee and breakfast bread.At the Mandarin Oriental,a person rather than an automated system will call to wake you up.3.　　　 ‎ Hotels have always taken the wake-up call seriously.4.　　　If you don’t get your call within five minutes of the requested time,you won’t have to pay for your room.Travelers,too,still want to have an option of a wake-up call.A study of 285 guests at Crown Plaza found that 53% considered a wake-up call very important. ‎ ‎5.　　　 In the late 1980s,hotels turned to automated systems.Then all you’d get was a ring and silence.In the ever-competitive race for loyal customers,however,many hotels are now getting creative with the wake-up call.Some hotels even have recordings of celebrity voices.And more hotels will go back to the old in-person system of wake up calls. ‎ A.But they might bring you coffee.‎ B.If you don’t answer,you’ll get a wake-up knock.‎ C.Crown Plaza,for instance,has a wake-up call guarantee.‎ D.But the wake-up call became less personal over the years.‎ E.The hotel gets 15 to 30 requests for wake-up calls each day.‎ F.The human wake-up call is a way to personalize a guest’s stay.‎ G.Some guests sleep through the call,while others turn their phone ringers off.‎ 答案:1-5　AFBCD Ⅲ.完形填空 The stage lights dimmed,and

Gallery in London isn’t able to tell the difference.The woman,whose name isn’t known,mistook a work of art by the German painter Gustav Metzger for a bag of rubbish,and threw it out with other bags.The plastic bag,which contained pieces of paper and cardboard,was later recovered outside the gallery,but the artist thought that it was too damaged to be put on show again.78-year-old Mr.Metzger explained that the exhibit,which he said was a copy of a similar work he had created in 1960,was meant to show that all art is temporary and “finite (有限的)”.‎ Embarrassed officials at the museum said that they had had to call a ‎ meeting with cleaners to explain which things should not be touched.They would not say whether Mr.Metzger would be paid any compensation for the incident.However,to make absolutely sure the same thing would not happen again,they decided to cover Mr.Metzger’s work every evening with a coloured cloth.In this way the cleaners arriving after the gallery had been closed to the general public would realize they should not touch it.‎ This is not the first time that museum cleaners have had trouble distinguishing exhibits from rubbish.In 2001,in another London gallery,a cleaner threw away a work by the well-known British artist Damien Hirst.It was an arrangement of empty beer bottles,coffee cups,and overflowing ashtrays,which were meant to indicate the chaos in the life of an artist.‎ However,cleaners don’t always throw things away—sometimes they clean them! This was the case with a dirty bath,which was on show in a gallery in Germany.Without asking what the bath was doing in the gallery,the cleaners simply scrubbed it clean.‎ ‎1.The officials of the museum covered Mr.Metzger’s work so that 　　　. ‎ A.the visitors couldn’t get close in the evening B.it could get recovered soon C.the cleaners wouldn’t make the same mistake D.they would return to normal ‎2.Which of the following is NOT true?‎ A.People have different opinions on modern art.‎ B.We are sure that Mr.Metzger has been paid much compensation.‎ C.A work of Damien Hirst was thrown away by a cleaner in 2001.‎ D.Some modern work is about the chaos of an artist’s life.‎ ‎3.The last paragraph is written to show that 　　　. ‎ A.cleaners often make exhibits as clean as possible B.cleaners can’t always differ exhibits from rubbish C.exhibits are usually difficult to clean D.exhibits are not always so beautiful ‎4.What’s the best title of the passage?‎ A.Cleaners Mistake Modern Art for Rubbish B.Modern Art Shouldn’t Be Cleaned C.What Makes a Great Work of Art D.Cleaners Don’t Always Throw Things Away 语篇解读:有些人喜欢现代艺术,而有些人不喜欢。本文介绍了在美术馆工作的清洁工错误地将现代艺术作品当成垃圾扔掉或误认为是很脏而擦干净的事。‎ 答案及剖析:‎ ‎1.C　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However,to make absolutely sure the same thing would not happen again,they decided to cover...with a ‎ coloured cloth.”可知,他们这样做的目的是避免清洁工再次犯同样的错误,即C项正确。‎ ‎2.B　细节理解题。根据第一段的第一句可知A项表述正确;根据第二段的第二句可知B项表述错误;根据第三段的第二句和最后一句可知C、D两项表述正确。故选B项。‎ ‎3.B　推理判断题。最后一段通过讲述清洁工误把现代艺术作品当成脏东西而擦干净的事来说明,清洁工并不总是能分清现代艺术作品与垃圾,即B项正确。‎ ‎4.A　标题归纳题。文章开头的前两句话点明了主题,然后全文都是围绕清洁工误把现代艺术作品当成垃圾展开,即A项正确。‎ B ‎(2019石家庄摸底)‎ If you ever visit an English village,make sure to look out for morris dancing.Undoubtedly as one of the strangest traditions of English culture,morris dancing is a form of folk dancing that dates back to the 15th century.If you ever get the opportunity,you really have to see it.‎ Men and women wearing old-fashioned,tattered (破烂的) clothing dance in the street of towns and villages across the country during the holiday periods.Women wear long,frilly (有褶边的) skirts and men wear short trousers with bells attached to them.They dance to traditional folk music which is often played on traditional musical instruments.‎ Some groups carry heavy black sticks with which they bash against ‎ each other while they dance.Other groups wave handkerchiefs in the air whilst they perform.The dances are usually performed near a pub so that when it’s over,the dancers and audience can sing some traditional folk songs over a pint of beer.The festivities will often continue long into the night,by which point most people are too drunk to think about performing again.‎ Morris dancing is a great English tradition but it’s facing a big crisis.As the years go by,fewer and fewer young people are joining morris dancing groups.The dancers are getting older and older and eventually,if nothing is done to change this trend,the tradition will die out within the next few decades.‎ If you’ve ever had the fortune to see morris dancing,you may understand why teenagers aren’t rushing to sign up.Putting it bluntly (直言地),it’s not exactly the coolest thing for an 18-year-old to be doing.Why dress up in bells and funny costumes when you could be going clubbing? Or playing sports? Or doing anything else?‎ However,it would be a great shame to lose such a fun and energetic part of England’s history and culture.It’s important to look after some traditions and customs especially when it’s something as harmless and happy as morris dancing.So here’s a toast to the next generation of would-be morris dancers! Let’s hope they don’t leave it behind.‎ ‎5.What is the article mainly about?‎ A.The popularity of morris dancing in the UK.‎ B.The origins of morris dancing in the UK.‎ C.Different attitudes toward morris dancing in the UK.‎ D.Traditions and development of morris dancing in the UK.‎ ‎6.What can we know about morris dancing?‎ A.Dancers usually wear long dresses with bells attached.‎ B.People sing traditional folk music while they are dancing.‎ C.Dancers perform with sticks or handkerchiefs in their hands.‎ D.People prefer to dance till nighttime near pubs and then stop to drink beers.‎ ‎7.What is the present situation of morris dancing?‎ A.There is a lack of professional dancers. B.It is losing appeal among young people.‎ C.It is accused of lacking fun and variety. D.Its traditions and customs have been forgotten.‎ 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一种传统的舞蹈以及这种舞蹈所面临的现状。‎ 答案及剖析:‎ ‎5.D　主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“morris dancing is a form of folk dancing that dates back to the 15th century” 可知,莫里斯舞是一种民间舞蹈,可以追溯到15世纪,并由此引出文章内容。下文对这种舞蹈进行了介绍,所以选D。‎ ‎6.C　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Some groups carry heavy black sticks with which they bash against each other while they dance.Other groups wave handkerchiefs in the air whilst they perform”可知,有些团体举着黑色的棍子,在跳舞的时候互相拍打,其他团体在表演的时候在空中挥动手帕,所以选C。‎ ‎7.B　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“As the years go by,fewer and fewer young people are joining morris dancing groups”可知,随着岁月的流逝,越来越少的年轻人加入莫里斯舞蹈团,所以选B。‎ Ⅱ.语法填空(2020山东模考)‎ On the morning of her grandson’s wedding,Peg McCormack received some bad news.The 91-year-old was in the hospital after a fall when she found out she would be unable to attend the 1.　　　　 (celebrate) in Madison,New Jersey. ‎ Unknown to McCormack,her grandson Brian 2.　　　　 his wife Lauren had made a heartfelt plan 3.　　　　 (include) her in the day’s activities.4.　　　　(follow) by a wedding photographer,the couple made a surprise visit 5.　　　　 the hospital before heading to the reception. ‎ ‎“She was so excited to watch 6.　　　　 (we) get married,” the bride said. “She was simply living for this wedding.So we brought the wedding to her.” ‎ ‎“When we walked into that room,she was 7.　　　　(obvious)‎ ‎ shocked,” the photographer said.“She just kept 8.　　　　(say)‘I can’t believe you’re here!’and thanking them for coming to see her.The way she held their hands,9.　　　　(touch) their faces and just looked at them,you could tell they had such a special bond.I don’t think she released Brian’s hand 10.　　　　 entire time that we were in the room.” ‎ ‎“It meant the world to bring the wedding to her,”the groom said.“It was such a small portion of the day to trade in for such a special moment.”‎ 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。91岁的老人在摔倒后住进了医院,无法参加孙子的婚礼。孙子和妻子把婚礼带到了医院,让老人无比感动。‎ 答案及剖析:‎ ‎1.celebration　定冠词the修饰名词。此处指庆祝活动,故用celebrate的名词形式celebration。‎ ‎2.and　her grandson Brian和his wife是两个人物,中间需要连词连接,故用and。‎ ‎3.including　本句中had made是谓语动词,include需要用非谓语动词,与plan是主动关系,所以用including。include sb.in an activity让某人参加活动。‎ ‎4.Followed　此处是过去分词短语作状语,与逻辑主语the couple是被动关系,所以用followed。‎ ‎5.to　固定短语make a visit to...去……拜访/参观。‎ ‎6.us　动词watch后需要用人称代词的宾格形式作宾语。故用we的宾格形式us。‎ ‎7.obviously　修饰形容词shocked需要用副词形式。‎ ‎8.saying　keep doing sth.不断地做某事。此处指奶奶不停地说“我不敢相信你们在这里!”,故用saying。‎ ‎9.touched　此处与held和looked并列,都是主语she的谓语。所以touch也要用过去式touched。‎ ‎10.the　the entire time...作句子状语,“整个……的时间”。此处指他们在病房期间,奶奶都没有松开布莱恩的手。‎
