9.B

10.D

11.A【分析】這是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了有號稱“世界一流音響設(shè)備”的卡內(nèi)基音樂廳，并講述它的歷史與輝煌。因此能在卡內(nèi)基音樂廳舉辦自己的音樂會，成為眾多音樂家的夢想。【8題詳解】推理判斷題。答案定位在最后一段BecausethebestandmostfamousmusiciansofalltimehaveplayedatCarnegieHall,itisthedreamofmostmusicianswhowanttobegreattoplaythere.（因為歷史上最優(yōu)秀、最著名的音樂家都曾在卡內(nèi)基音樂廳演奏過，所以大多數(shù)想成為偉大音樂家的人都夢想在那里演奏。）由此可知，它的歷史輝煌，因此當(dāng)它要被拆遷改建時，人們極力挽救，故選C。【9題詳解】細節(jié)理解題。答案定位在第四段Over12,000concertprogrammeswerereceivedandwiththeseitwaspossibletomakeaproperrecordofCarnegieHall’sconcerthistory.（收到了超過12,000個音樂會節(jié)目，有了這些節(jié)目，就有可能對卡內(nèi)基音樂廳的音樂會歷史作出適當(dāng)?shù)挠涗?。）故選B?！?0題詳解】細節(jié)理解題。答案定位在第三段Itwasthenfixedupbetween1983and1995.（然后在1983年至1995年間進行了修復(fù)。）所以修復(fù)時間持續(xù)了1995-1983=12，故選D?！?1題詳解】主旨大意題。通過閱讀文章，可知這篇文章主要講了有號稱“世界一流音響設(shè)備”的卡內(nèi)基音樂廳的歷史與輝煌，故選A?！军c睛】細節(jié)理解題的解題思路：細節(jié)理解題就是我們常見的wh-題，它們大多是根據(jù)文章中的具體信息如事實、例證、原因、過程、論述等進行提問的。抓住文段中的事實和細節(jié)是做好該題型的關(guān)鍵，也是做好其它類型問題的基礎(chǔ)。該題型幾乎都可以在文章中直接找到與答案有關(guān)的信息，或是其變體。在一篇短文里大部分篇幅都屬于這類圍繞主體展開的細節(jié)，做這類題一般采用尋讀法，即先讀題，然后帶著問題快速閱讀短文，找出與問題和選項有關(guān)的詞語或句子，再對相關(guān)部分進行分析對比，找出答案。例如小題3，答案定位在第三段Itwasthenfixedupbetween1983and1995.（然后在1983年至1995年間進行了修復(fù)。）所以修復(fù)時間持續(xù)了1995-1983=12，故選D。20.Duringthelastfifteenyearsofmymother'slifeshesufferedwithAlzheimer'sdisease(老年癡呆).Untilthenshehadbeenabright,cheerfulwomandeeplyinterestedandinvolvedintheworldaroundher.IwouldgohometovisitherinVirginiaandshewouldlookatmeinapuzzledwayandask,“Whoareyou?”
