C.worklateatnightfortheirmusic
D.knowalotabouteatingandsleeping
1.A。
这是一道主旨题。
文章主要介绍了作曲家给人的神秘感和他们工作的方式。
B选项不对因为文中指出有时候好音乐来自灵感,C选项不对是因为文章引用作曲和睡觉的关系是作为例子说明作曲家的工作方式,D选项文中没有提到。
2.D。
这是一道推理题。
根据第一段最后一句“Thecomposer,inshort,isamanofmystery.”可以推断出作曲家从哪里开始,怎么发展,他怎么学习的这门手艺,都不为人知,所以才会神秘,可以推断出“coveredincompletedarkness”是不为人知的意思。
3.C。
这是一道推断题。
根据第二段“Oneofthefirstthingsthecommonmanwantstoknowaboutisthepartinspirationplaysinacomposer’swork.Hefindsitdifficulttobelievethatcomposersarenotmuchinterestedinthatquestion.”可知大众不能理解作曲作家并不关心灵感在作曲工作中的作用,可以推断出大众认为作曲家应该比较关注灵感。
4.A。
这是一道推断题。
根据最后一段可知作曲家对于工作就像人对于睡眠一样(是一种本能),也就是说他们对于作曲有一种天赋。
