【解析】

本文使用倒敘的形式述說了 Dorothy學(xué)習(xí)音樂的故事。一開始說小女兒舉辦音樂會,由女兒美麗的歌聲想到自己年輕時候?qū)W習(xí)音樂的情況。Dorothy年輕時很有音樂天賦,先后在法國、意大利和美國學(xué)習(xí)音樂。不過由于偶遇 David并相愛,為了愛情而放棄了音樂的學(xué)習(xí)。不過讓她可以感到欣慰的是女兒已成為歌唱家,完成了她的心愿。

1. C。由下文的“這一時刻她等了好多年了”來看,這里說的是女兒第一次演出。由于演唱會還沒有開始,結(jié)果未知,因此可排除選項 A、B和D。

2. B。由下文知道,Dorothy Brown也曾學(xué)習(xí)過音樂,但由于認(rèn)識 David并結(jié)婚而影響了自己在音樂方面的發(fā)展,現(xiàn)在正好讓女兒來完成自己的心愿。由此可知,她“盼望這一時刻好多年了”。

3. A。由“今天小女兒 Lauren將舉辦演唱會”來看,此處說的是“她的聲音真美”。

4. C。女兒的演出使她想到了和女兒一般大的時候的事情。下面是回憶自己以往學(xué)習(xí)音樂的情況。go back to the days…意為“回憶起……的日子”。

5. A。從下面的“當(dāng)還是一個年輕姑娘時,Dorothy想成為一名歌唱演員”來看,Dorothy在和女兒差不多大的時候也曾學(xué)習(xí)過音樂。

6. D。當(dāng) Dorothy還是個小女孩時,她想成為一名歌唱演員。

7. B。由上下文可知“她曾在法國、意大利和美國學(xué)習(xí)過音樂”。

8. C。由上下文可知,此處是老師告訴她以后有能力成為一名出色的歌唱家。

9. A。前面說“你有能力成為一名出色的歌唱家”,現(xiàn)在話鋒一轉(zhuǎn),“但是你必須愿意努力學(xué)習(xí)、刻苦勤奮很多年”。be prepared to do sth表示“有能力并且愿意做某事”。

10. C。這是老師繼續(xù)說的話:在你一生中要把全部時間用于音樂,不能用在其他方面

11. B。由 Dorothy遇到了 David并與他結(jié)婚等來看,當(dāng)時她的年齡不可能是 8歲、80歲或 88歲,當(dāng)時 Dorothy為 18歲比較合理。

12. B。/13. A。聽了老師的話,再加上當(dāng)時她只有 18歲,“她確信音樂是充實她生活的全部內(nèi)容”。fill one’s life為“填充生活,充實生活”。

14. D。有接近一年的時間,Dorothy什么也不想,這里說的是她一心撲在學(xué)習(xí)音樂上。

15. D。前面說她有一年的時間把心思全撲在學(xué)習(xí)音樂上,這里說的是“接著她遇到了在歐洲旅游的 David”,這動搖了她學(xué)習(xí)音樂的念頭。meet with意為“遇到,偶然碰到”。

16. A。從下文 David要她做他的妻子及 Dorothy也想嫁給他等來看,這里說的是他們見面后不久就相愛了。fall in love (with sb / sth)意為“愛上某人或某物”。

17. C。從上文“他們相愛”可推測,此處說的是“David要她做他的妻子”。

18. D。Dorothy也想嫁給 David,“但是她也愛音樂”,她不知道怎么辦,這就在嫁人與學(xué)習(xí)音樂方面產(chǎn)生了矛盾。

19. B。下文 David說學(xué)習(xí)音樂和結(jié)婚,“你二者不可能兼得”。possibly可以與 can’t連用,表示“不可能”。

20. B。從上下文特別是 Now Lauren became a singer instead of her可推測,Dorothy想成為歌唱家的愿望由女兒來完成了,故此處用 hope。will往往含有“遺囑,遺愿”的意思,在此不太合乎情理。
