About twenty of us were lucky enough to take part in a crowd-scene (群演) in a film-studio (影棚). Although our “act” would last only for a short time, we could see a lot of interesting things.
We all stood in the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees along a road. Very soon, bright lights and the big movie-camera were ready. The director (导演) shouted something to the cameraman and then spoke to the two famous actors nearby. It was hot in the studio, but we saw one of the actors put on a heavy and warm coat and start walking along the road. A big fan began blowing small white feathers (羽毛) down on him, and soon the actor and the trees were covered with “snow”. The workmen added two more fans, and a “strong wind” blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.
The next scene was different. The director filmed it in a quite unusual way. Pictures taken on an island in the Pacific appeared on a glass screen. An actor and an actress stood in front of the screen so that they looked as if they were at the water’s edge (水边) on an island. In this way, palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies appeared in the studio!
Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film “stars”!

36．What would happen in the “three minutes” mentioned in the last paragraph
A．A new scene would be filmed. B．More stars would act in the film.

Kunqu Opera(昆曲), also called Kunqiang or Kunju, is one of the oldest operas in China. It has a long history of over 600 years and it is called the Mother of Chinese Operas.
At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Gu Jian, an artist in Kunshan near Suzhou, worked together with other artists and they first created(创作) Kunshan qiang. Then in the Ming Dynasty, Wei Liangfu, a great opera artist, changed(改变) it and a new kind of opera, Kunqu Opera, came into being. After that, his student Liang Chenyu made more changes to Kunqu Opera and made the first Kunqu play in Chinese history—Huanshaji. Later, more and more artists started to write plays. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Kunqu Opera was quite popular in China. It was the No.1 opera until Beijing Opera took its place because Beijing Opera was easier to learn.
Kunqu Opera has lots of excellent plays from the old times. Many of them are still popular today, such as The Peony Pavilion by Tang Xianzu, The Kite by Li Yu, The Peach Blossom Fan by Kong Shangren and The Palace of Eternal Youth by Hong Sheng. The Peony Pavilion is the very best of all Kunqu Opera plays. It tells the love story between Liu Mengmei and Du Liniang arounda number of dreams.
In 2001, UNESCO listed Kunqu Opera as one of the Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity(人类口头和非物质遗产代表作). And because of the hard work by opera artists and the help from our country, Kunqu Opera is coming back to life.

参考答案：
1．A
【详解】句意：我不喜欢听音乐，但我喜欢电影《泰坦尼克号》里的音乐《我心永恒》。
考查冠词的用法。不定冠词a/an表示泛指，定冠词the表示特指，前一个music是泛指，但music是不可数名词，前面不能用a/an修饰，因此不填；后一个music是特指《泰坦尼克号》里的音乐，用定冠词the，故选A。
2．A
【详解】句意：作为一名女演员，巩俐以她的电影获奖而闻名。
考查介词及动词短语的辨析。as作为；like像。根据“...an actress”，可知，第一个空表示“作为一名女演员”，用介词as，排除B和D选项。be known as表示“以……而知名”，后加某种职业；be known for+表示“以……而闻名”。根据“awards for her films”，可知，是以她的电影获奖而闻名，故选A。
3．C
【详解】句意：直到米莉告诉我，我才知道昨天发生的事故。
考查从属连词辨析。when当……的时候；as因为，当……的时候；until直到；after在……之后。根据“I knew nothing about yesterday’s accident...Millie told me about it.”可知，此句构成“not…until…”结构，意为“直到……才”，until引导时间状语从句。故选C。
4．B

考查介词短语。because因为，后跟从句；because of因为，由于，后跟名词或动名词；as因为，后跟从句；since自从，后跟从句。losing their homes为名词性短语。故选B。

考查疑问句。How soon多久，对in+一段时间进行提问；How long多久，对时间段进行提问；How often多久一次，对频率时间进行提问；How far多远，对距离进行提问。通过答语，明确是频率时间，因此用how often进行提问。故选C。
6．A

考查不定代词的用法。something一些事情，常用于肯定句；nothing没有什么；anything任何事情，常用于否定句和疑问句；different不同的，形容词。形容词修饰不定代词时需要置于代词之后，所以排除B和D；根据“Sounds great!”可知，此处表示肯定含义，表示“打算为父亲的生日聚会做点事情”。故选A。
8．C
【详解】句意：我们老师们应该鼓励学生们在课堂上提问题。
考查动词不定式。Be allowed被允许；let让；encourage鼓励；allow允许。根据语境是鼓励学生，encourage sb. to do sth.鼓励某人做某事，故选C。
9．B
【详解】句意：河上的桥是用大石头做的。卡车可以顺利通过。

10．B
【详解】句意：——明天我们去海里航行怎么样？——我们最好不要去，据报道，明天有飓风。
考查情景交际。Yes, I’d love do是的，我想去；We’d better not我们最好不要去；Good idea好主意；All right好吧。根据“It’s reported that there will be a hurricane tomorrow”可知，明天天气不好，所以最好不要去，故选B。

考查现在分词作定语和词义辨析。wonderful极好的，形容词；wonderfully极好地，副词。前一个句子是系表结构，主语是“This piece of music”，系动词是“sounds”，后面要用形容词作表语，故排除B、C；因为前一个句子为简单句，第一个空格只能用“written”作“music”的后置定语，表示被动关系，故选D。
12．D

考查非谓语动词。keep sb. doing sth.“让某人一直做某事”为固定搭配，在此结构中，现在分词作宾语补足语。故选D。
13．A
【详解】句意：—— 你有周杰伦的CD吗？—— 对不起，已经卖完了。但我下周会多拿一些，因为很畅销。

14．C
【详解】句意：她在扬州英语经典阅读比赛上唱了一首歌《我相信我能飞》，我之前从来没有听过比这更好的嗓音了。
考查比较级。good好的；well好地，当形容词讲时，表示身体好；better更好；best最好。根据关键词than，可知这是比较级的标志性词汇，表两者之间作比较，所以应用good的比较级形式better，故选C。
