By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare time he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova—not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.”
Mr. Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score(总谱) so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.
“It’s a demanding job. A lot of skills are needed for it. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr. Titterton explained.
Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.
But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand.” Mr. Titterton said. “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”
Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage.
“My husband is the worst page turner.” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’ Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”
41. What should Titterton be able to do to be a page turner?
A. Read music. B. Play the piano. C. Sing songs. D. Fix the instruments.
42 The underlined word “demanding” in paragraph 3 probably means ______.
A. boring B. tiring C. challenging D. creative
43. What does Titterton need to practise?
A. Counting the pages.
B. Recognizing the “nodding”.
C. Catching falling objects.
D. Performing in his own style.
44. Why is Ms Raspopova’s husband “the worst page turner”?
A. He has very poor eyesight.
B. He ignores the audience.
C. He has no interest in music.
D. He forgets to do his job.
45. What does Ms Raspopova think of Titterton’s work?
A. Satisfied. B. Disappointed. C. Doubtful. D. Hateful.
【答案】41. A 42. C 43. B 44. D 45. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述了为钢琴演奏者做翻页工作的Robert Titterton和他的工作情况。

细节理解题。根据第一段中“I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.(我不是一个受过训练的音乐家，但我学会了读谱，所以我可以帮助Maria表演)”可知，要成为一个翻页人，Titterton要会读谱。故选A。

词义猜测题。根据画线词后“A lot of skills are needed for it. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.(这需要很多技能。你必须确保你不会一次翻两页，当你必须回到正确的位置时，你必须确保你找到了音乐中的重复部分)”可知，翻页人的工作要求很高。由此推知，demanding意为“有挑战性的”。故选C。

It’s good to make mistakes, and here is why.
First of all, mistakes are a clear sign that we are trying new things. It’s always good to try new things because when we are trying new things, we are growing. If we never try anything new, how can we improve? How can we expand? The simple answer is “We can’t”. Around us, everything in our physical world is the result of someone trying something new.
Another good thing about mistakes is this: When we are making mistakes, we are learning. Consider this-Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work.
Finally, when we make a mistake, we are much closer to success. Why? Because when all is said and done, we will have tried some number of things before we succeeded. Every time we make a mistake, we eliminate one of those things and are one step closer.
But all this doesn’t mean that we should go through life without considering the result of a mistake. Quite the contrary, when we try something new, we have to be willing to set some reasonable limits. We shouldn’t do anything blindly. Because we all have limited resources—in the form of time and money, so we must realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time and arrange these resources appropriately so we can learn, make corrections, and try it again. Only by accepting and using our mistakes in this way can we make significant advances in our lives.
There is an old saying that goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough.” So go forth and make mistakes. And learn. And grow.
46. From the second paragraph, we can conclude that ______.
A. mistakes are unnecessary for development
B. mistakes let us see our own limits
C. it’s common for people to make mistakes
D. making mistakes is better than not trying
47. According to the passage, if we try new things, we can ______.
A. move forward B. never fail C. obtain nothing D. be closer to mistakes
48. The underlined word “eliminate” means ______.
A. make up for B. get rid of C. choose D. solve
49. According to the passage, one thing we should pay attention to about making mistakes is ______.
A. avoiding making the same mistakes
B. accepting the outcome willingly
C. making proper arrangements for our next try
D. hiding the results after each mistake
50. The article is mainly about ______.
A. how to deal with mistakes
B. what benefits making mistakes brings
C. how to achieve success
D. how to make use of our mistakes
【答案】46. D 47. A 48. B 49. C 50. B

阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
In my early 30s, I struggled to find a dream job. One of my friends reminded me that I’d always loved beauty, and suggested I apply for a licence, which would give me the freedom to set up my own business.
However, the only problem was that tuition fees were $6,000, which was out of my budget. I knew that my salary wouldn’t cover all the fees, even if I worked extra hours every day. I’d seen others set up crowdfunding papers to help them achieve their goals. I thought I’d do the same. Then, on a Friday night, I received a large amount of money in my bank account, which made me really surprised. There had been some mistakes. I assumed it was an illegal trick.
It turned out to be a donation. The name on it is one I instantly recognized: Chrissy Teigen, my favorite TV host. She had left a note: “I’ve seen that this has been your dream for such a long time. I’m so happy to lend you a hand.” I called my mom immediately. I was crying and not making much sense. I just managed to say that Chrissy Telgen had made my dream come true.
The amount might have been a drop in the ocean for her, but it was life-changing for me. Lots of other people donated after her. Soon I paid all the fees for the course. I couldn’t have been happier. I’ve now set up my own business, and I always think about Chrissy’s generosity. I did thank her, and I still follow each other on Twitter. Hopefully, I will be able to give her a beauty treatment someday.

【答案】Dear Chris,
I am sorry to hear about your communication problems with your parents, but I know how you feel since I’ve had similar problems before. Here are my suggestions and I hope things can get better soon.
First, let’s put ourselves in their shoes. Parents love us and often try to prevent us from making mistakes that seem obvious to them. Besides, when we share our problems with them, we often look for a listening ear and an open heart, not a solution. So, what you need to do is tell them about the difference and put trust in them.
I hope these suggestions will help. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Jin
