     Much as Robby tried, he lacked the sense of tone and basic rhythm (節(jié)奏). But he dutifully reviewed

play some day."
    But he seemed hopeless, with no born ability. A real bad advertisement for my teaching! I was so
happy when one day he stopped coming.
    Several weeks later my students were to have a recital (演奏會). To my surprise, Robby came, asking
to play in the recital.
     "But, it is for current pupils; you dropped."
     "My mom was sick. But I have been practicing. I've just got to play!"

I could save the recital if...
    The recital went on well.  Robby came up on stage, clothes wrinkled and his hair looked like he'd run
an eggbeater through it. "How could his mom...?"
     Robby pulled out the piano bench and began. It was Mozart's work! I was not prepared for what I
heard next. Like in a dream, I was then woken up by the wild applause-everybody was on their feet!
     "I've never heard you play like that, Robby! How'd you do it?"
    Through the microphone Robby explained: "Well, Miss Hondorf, remember I told you my mom was
sick? Actually she had cancer and died this morning. She was born deaf, and tonight was the first time
she ever heard me play. I wanted to make it special."

第三部分閱讀理解(共10小題;每小題2分,滿分20分)

A

No other band has had the same influence in the world as the Beatles. Over eight years and with more than a dozen albums (專輯),four young men from Liverpool, England — John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Star changed popular music and culture forever.

People in the UK became crazy about the Beatles in late 1963. The phenomenon (現(xiàn)象) was called “Beatlemania” by the British press. The term referred to the young women seen screaming at the band’s concerts. Beatlemania came to North America in early 1964, and the band’s popularity spread across much of the world.

Within five years, the Beatles’music changed greatly from their simple early hits like “She Loves You” and “I want to Hold Your Hand”.

The band wrote their own songs, explored new ways to create music and strived (奮斗)for high quality in every album they put out.

However, with their popularity came criticism (批評). The press criticized the band as symbols of 1960s youth culture, which celebrated freedom from traditional family roles.

In 1970, Paul McCartney announced he was leaving the Beatles. And the group quietly came to an end.

In the 70s, fans hoped for a reunion, but the group decided to follow their own careers with different degrees of success.

Fans lost hope with a tragedy; John Lennon was murdered in New York in 1980.

51. How long did the Beatles exist?

A. Five years.                           B. Six years.

C. Eight years.                         D. Thirteen years.

52. The underlined word “press” means _______.

A. young women of a country         

B. young fans of a singer or film star

C. a business that prints and sometimes also sells books           

D. reports in newspapers and on radio and television

53. For what reason were the Beatles criticized?

A. Because their own songs were not popular.

B. Because they influenced the youth culture.

C. Because of their own families.

D. Because of their roles in the band.

54. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. Beatles changed the face of music       B. John Lennon’s death

C. John Lennon and his band             D. The break-up of the Beatles
