【答案】21.A22.D23.A24.B

【解析】

21.段落大意理解题，文章开篇围绕“music”进行讨论，叙述了单词“music”来源于希腊文“muse”,由此可知B选项“音乐的起源”理解错误，此处并非谈论音乐的起源，根据下文可知人们并不知道谁发明了音乐，谁唱了第一首歌。

C选项“Somethingabouttheannouncer”文中并未提及，D选项“一些关于音乐的问题”为干扰项，文中疑问句“谁发明了音乐？

”,”谁唱了第一首歌？

”为作者强调音乐的发明无可考证。

故选A。

22.细节理解题，根据文中第二段“inthisprogramweshallstudythelanguageofmusic.”可知这个“musicprogram”的目的之一为“学习音乐的语言”，A选项说法正确，后句“Weshallbetryingtofindoutmoreabouthowmusicworks.”我们应该试着发现更多关于音乐怎样起到作用，B选项说法正确，“Weshalltrytofindouthowmusicsayswhatpeoplefeel.”可知C选项“去发现音乐怎样表达人们的感受”说法正确，D选项文中未提及。

根据题意，故选D。

23.细节理解题，根据文中第一段“weknowthatmusicplaysanimportantpartinalmosteveryone’slife.”可知音乐几乎对每个人的日常生活都很重要，B选项“听音乐对青少年来说是必须的”，文中并无此意思，只是说青少年喜欢音乐，以此佐证音乐的重要性，C选项未提及，D选项“音乐决定我们的未来”，文中并未下此定论，仅说明音乐的重要性。

故选A。

24.推理判断题，根据文中最后说只有了解音乐怎样起作用，怎样表达人们情感之后我们才能分别音乐的好坏。

末句“Ishallexplainwhytheyareallgoodmusic...”表明接下来会讨论一些好的音乐，B选项“niceandpopularmusic”为合理选项。

故选B。

B

【答案】25.D26.A27.D

【解析】

25.细节理解题，文章首段介绍英格兰气候的信息中“Butforasmallcountryithasasurprisingrangeofclimate”指出英格兰具有丰富的气候，A选项“寒冷潮湿的气候”不正确，B选项“宜人的气候”，文章只说英格兰南部夏季的气候宜人，C选项为干扰项，“asurprisingrangeofclimate”意为丰富多样的气候，设置“surprisingclimate”进行干扰，D选项“多样的气候”符合题意，故选D。

26.推理判断题，根据第二段“Flowersandvegetablesripen（成熟）asmuchasamonthearlierthanthoseelsewhere”可知Devon的花卉和蔬菜比其他地方的早熟一个月，因此农民能够获得更优的价格。

由此可推理出A选项“Devon的花卉和蔬菜提前一个月出现在市场上”正确。

故选A。

27.细节理解题，根据第一段“ExceptforthesummermonthsofJunetoSeptember,thisisprobablytrueofthenorthofEnglandandtheMidlands”，意为除了六月到九月，英格兰的北部和中部是寒冷潮湿的气候。

可知D选项正确。

故选D。

28.细节理解题。

根据第一段句子However,hecanplayverydifficultmusicalpiecesbymusicianssuchasChopinandBeethovenjustafewminutesafterhehearsthem.可知SamuelOsmond能把听到的乐曲弹奏出来是他的特殊之处，故选D。

29.细节理解题。

根据第二段句子Samuelcan’tunderstandwhyeveryoneissosurprised.和Isuddenlydecidedtostartplayingthepiano,withoutbeingabletoreadmusicandwithouthavinganylessons.可知Samuel不会读乐谱的情况下就会弹钢琴，这使大家感到惊讶。

故选C。

30.推理判断题。

根据Heisnowlearningapiecethatissodifficultthatmanyprofessionalpianistscan’tplayit.可知Samuel正在学习许多专业钢琴家也不会弹的曲子，因此推断他比许多专业钢琴家弹钢琴弹得还好。

31.标题判断题。

根据第一段句子Heneverstudiedthepiano.However,hecanplayverydifficultmusicalpiecesbymusicianssuchasChopinandBeethovenjustafewminutesafterhehearsthem.以及全文内容可知，本文围绕着Samuel没有学习弹钢琴，只是听到乐曲就能记下来这一特殊天赋展开论述，因此推断B项“一个音乐天才的故事”符合语境。
