In the articles that discuss the field of bio?musicology，the study of the biological basis for the creation and appreciation of music，researchers present various evidence to show that music?making is at once an original human “business”， and an art form with skillful performers throughout the animal kingdom. The new reports stress that humans hold no copyright on sound wisdom，and that a number of nonhuman animals produce what can rightly be called music，rather than random sound.Recent in?depth analyses of the songs sung by humpback whales show that， even when their organ would allow them to do otherwise，the animals converge on the same choices relating to sounds and beauty，and accept the same laws of song composition as those preferred by human musicians，and human ears，everywhere. For example，male humpback whales，who spend six months of each year doing little else but singing，use rhythms(节奏) similar to those found in human music and musical phrases of similar length—a few seconds.Whales are able to make sounds over a range of at least seven octaves(八度音阶)，yet they tend to move on through a song in beautiful musical intervals，rather than moving forwards madly.They mix the sounds like drums and pure tones in a ratio(比例) which agrees with that heard in much western music.They also use a favorite technique of human singers，the so?called A?B?A form， in which a theme is stated，then developed，and then returned to in slightly revised form. Perhaps most impressive，humpback songs contain tunes that rhyme.“This suggests 3 that whales use rhyme in the same way we do:as a technique in poem to help them remember complex material，” the researchers write. 语篇解读 本文属于科普说明文，全篇以Humpback Whales为例阐述了动物和人类一样具备 音乐创作能力。 5(The underlined words “converge on” in Paragraph 3 probably mean “ ”( A(tend towards B(refer to C(turn into D(put forward 答案 A 解析 词义猜测题。该词在文章第三段，联系前后文可知，深入分析Humpback Whales会发 现，它们都趋向于发出那种动听、悦耳、被大众喜爱的声音，故A正确。 6(What is the main idea of the article? A(Animals are able to compose and enjoy music like humans. B(Human beings borrow ideas in music from humpback whales. C(Humpback whales are skillful performers in the animal kingdom. D(Music?making is an ancient activity of both humans and animals. 答案 D 解析 主旨大意题。第二段引出全篇要说明的话题:创作音乐并非人类专利，动物世界也同 样存在，接下来文章围绕这一观点说明。 7(The main purpose of the passage is to . A(argue and discuss B(inform and explain C(compare and advertise D(examine and assess 答案 B 解析 写作手法题。根据全文可知，前两段提出阐述的话题，之后以Humpback Whales为例 进一步说明这一事实，故B正确。 C The news that China bans time?travel TV dramas and movies got a lot of attention on the Internet.Yet，time travel in China is a bit different from time travel in common sense.It is anything but science fiction and always goes backwards in time.There is minimum imagination involved—no ever?ending circles that mess up present and future，no advanced technology，no new social orders or new human forms from the twenty—whatever century，everything is a known historical fact when you travel through in China. It is not even called time travel;rather the Chinese people refer to it as time 4 crossover.Time crossover has been an extremely popular theme for online novels for years(in fact，it is an indispensable part of China’s online culture)，and didn’t get picked up by TV and the big screen until recent two years.Most of time?travel dramas and movies are adapted from popular online novels and like in other cases adaptations are never better than the original books. The main plot of time?travel novels or TV dramas can be very well summarized in one sentence:from nobody to somebody.Time travel in China is more about escaping from the reality than about realizing wild dreams. In China，there is no need of time machine either.People travel backwards in time via the possession of antiques presence at historical places of interest encounter of life?threatening accidents or simple a look into the mirror.Some time?travel novels even start with “I wanted to go back to history so much that one morning when I opened my eyes I was back.” Technology is not relevant at all. Though China is not short of histories to go back to，people have their own preferences and it is pretty much a gender thing.If the main character is male then he usually goes back to special times in history when he is able to help build up or tear up a dynasty.A typical example is A Step Into the Past(《寻秦记》)，the first time?travel TV drama in China，which tells the story of how a SWAT member helps to unite China and build up Qin Dynasty. On the other hand，female characters primarily go back to Qing Dynasty partly because Qing Dynasty has the most number of princes to fall in love with.YongZheng Emperor is the favorite.As can be seen in Startling by Each Step (《步步惊心》)， a Qing time crossover classic，a girl goes back to Qing Dynasty and falls in love with Yong Zheng Emperor and his brothers. 语篇解读 文章主要讲述了中国禁播有关“穿越”的电视剧和电影的新闻在博客和微博上引 起了极大的关注。作者认为中国的穿越剧是混乱了时间和社会秩序，和技术无关，主人翁是 有一些固定的模式的。 8(The writing purpose of this passage is to . A(analyze why the time?travel TV dramas are banned in China B(show the difference between time travel in China and in other cultures C(introduce the characteristics of the time?travel TV dramas in China D(advise people to watch the time?travel TV dramas in China 答案 C 5 解析 写作意图题。根据第一段第二、三句“Yet，time travel in China is a bit different from time travel in common sense.It is anything but science fiction and always goes backwards in time.”可知这篇文章主要是介绍中国穿越剧的特点:中国的穿越剧和普通意 义的时间穿越不一样，它不是科幻故事，而是回到过去，虚构一些过去发生的事。故C项正 确。 9(It can be inferred from the passage that . A(China now has banned any forms of productions about time travel B(the main character always follows a set pattern in the time?travel TV dramas in China C(adapted from online novels，time?travel TV and movie productions enjoy more praise D(all the time?travel productions are about heroes and their success 答案 B 解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段第二句“If the main character is male then he usually goes back to special times in history when he is able to help build up or tear up a dynasty.”和最后一段第一句“On the other hand，female characters primarily go back to Qing Dynasty partly because Qing Dynasty has the most number of princes to fall in love with.”可知在中国的穿越剧中主人翁是有一些固定的模式的，故B项正确。 10(The news mentioned in the very beginning is intended to . A(prove the author’s view B(give an example C(work as a topic sentence D(introduce the topic 答案 D 解析 写作手法题。根据文章第一段前两句“The news that China bans time?travel TV dramas and movies got a lot of attention on the Internet.Yet，time travel in China is a bit different from time travel in common sense.”可知文章提到中国禁止穿越剧电影和电视剧的消息是为了引出话题。故D项正确。 D Enrique Iglesias is a most successful singer!
