totryagain.”答案与解析【语篇解读】音乐能鼓舞人心,催人奋进。作者在失意时,正是因为听到了一首美好的乐曲,才再次尝试奋进。56.what考查宾语从句。本句中的what在宾语从句中作主语。57.

from考查介词。comefrom表示“来自……”。这种音乐的来源。58.songs考查名词复数。song为可数名词,前面没有限定词,故应用复数形式。59.watching考查非谓语动词。watch与主语I为主动关系,且是伴随stood这一动作而发生的,故用动词-i

ng形式作状语。60.it考查代词。本句中的it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的不定式结构toperform...。61.my考查人称代词。形容词性物主代词修饰名词作定语。62.who/whom/that考查定语从句。who/whom/that指代先行词在句中作know的宾语。

63.said考查动词时态。walked和put以及said三个动词是并列的结构,都使用过去时。64.lately考查副词。副词lately表示“近来”,与现在完成时连用。65.willing考查固定搭配。小女孩的音乐鼓励了作者,让他“愿意”再次尝试。第四部分写作(共两节,满分40
