4.B 细节理解题。根据首段第三、四句可知,这次散场后的清理工作与之前不同的是工人不仅清理走垃圾,而且还挪走了座椅和其他剧院的设备,为了剧院的转卖和拆迁。5.D 推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知,剧院老板选择这部电影是因为这部电影本身讲述的就是小镇上唯一的电影院准备关门停业的故事,恰好能反映出thePlazaTheater的现状。6.C 细节理解题。根据第四段末句中的“whichplanstobuildashoppingcomplexonthelandwherethetheaterislocated.”可以推断这个剧院将被拆除,取而代之的是一个购物综合体。7.B 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“mostofthe250seatswerefilledwithteary-eyedaudiencewantingtosaygood-byetotheoldbuilding.”可知,人们非常难过,不愿意看到老剧院被拆掉。【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。发表在《心理学前沿》杂志上一项研究对运动中的音乐进行了更深入的研究,特别是听音乐如何影响一个人的整体表现。文章介绍了研究开展的过程以及研究结果表明,音乐会让你精神振奋。它甚至可以帮助你锻炼得更努力,时间更长,同时研究人员发现,听节奏快的音乐会让人感觉不费力,同时对身体也有好处。8.A 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Forthesecondstatetheywereabletochoosewheretostandwhenthrowingtheballandperformedthesameactivitywiththevariousmusicchoices.”可知,在第二阶段的测试中,志愿者被允许选择位置和音乐。9.B 细节理解题。根据第三段可知,在投球测试中,男性选择的音乐更令人鼓舞。10.C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可推知,C选项“它有助于很容易获得更好的锻炼”与快节奏音乐的结果相匹配。11.D 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段中“Listeningtohigh-pacemusicwhileexercisingresultedinthehighestheartratecomparedwithnotlisteningtomusic.”以及画线词上文“Thismeansthattheexerciseseemedlikelesseffort,butitwasmorebeneficialintermsof”和后文“physicalfitness”可知,与不听音乐相比,运动时听节奏快的音乐时心率最高,这意味着运动看起来不那么费力,但就加强身体素质而言,快节奏音乐更有益,画线词意思是“加强”。Ⅴ.MyFavouriteFilm MyfavouritefilmisALittleRedFlowerdirectedbyHanYan,starringYiYangqianxiandLiuHaocun.Thefilmtellsawarmandrealisticstoryabouttwopatientswithcancer—WeiYihangandMaXiaoyuan.Maisoptimisticandeventuallydies.However,withherencouragement,Weigraduallyforgetsthefactthatheisacancerpatientandcompleteshisdream.Notonlydoesithavefamousstars,butitsmusicisespeciallyamazing.Moreover,itisaneducationalfilm,whichteachesmetobeenthusiasticandcherishlife.
