Janice is a pianist. She has a helper Frank, who sits beside her when she is on the stage as her page turner. Frank has been the official page turner for the past three years. His job is to sit beside Janice and turn the pages of the score, so Janice doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it herself.
“I’m just as nervous as Janice playing instruments on stage. A lot of skills are needed for the job. 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 tight spot, ” Frank explained.
Being a page turner requires lots 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. Janice has her own style of “nodding” to show a page turn which she needs to practise with Frank.
Frank was a piano student when Janice asked him to help her out on stage. “At first he was the worst page turner, ” she laughed. “He isn’t interested in the music, can’t feel every note, and I have to say ‘Turn, turn!’ Now Frank is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”
38. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us?
A. The beauty of the piano. B. The job of a page turner.
C. The importance of friendship. D. The value of the time.
39. What does Frank think of his job as a page turner?
A. It’s boring. B. It offers him lots of money.
C. It’s not easy. D. It can make him calm down.

C. Stopping being nervous. D. Performing in his own style.
41. Why did Frank use to be “the worst page turner”?

Janice is a pianist. She has a helper Frank, who sits beside her when she is on the stage as her page turner. Frank has been the official page turner for the past three years. His job is to sit beside Janice and turn the pages of the score, so Janice doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it herself.
“I’m just as nervous as Janice playing instruments on stage. A lot of skills are needed for the job. 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 tight spot, ” Frank explained.
Being a page turner requires lots 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. Janice has her own style of “nodding” to show a page turn which she needs to practise with Frank.
Frank was a piano student when Janice asked him to help her out on stage. “At first he was the worst page turner, ” she laughed. “He isn’t interested in the music, can’t feel every note, and I have to say ‘Turn, turn!’ Now Frank is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”
38. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us?
A. The beauty of the piano. B. The job of a page turner.
C. The importance of friendship. D. The value of the time.
39. What does Frank think of his job as a page turner?
A. It’s boring. B. It offers him lots of money.
C. It’s not easy. D. It can make him calm down.
40. What does Frank need to practise?
A. Counting the pages. B. Recognizing the “nodding”.
C. Stopping being nervous. D. Performing in his own style.
41. Why did Frank use to be “the worst page turner”?
A. He forgot to do his job. B. He had no interest in music.
C. He had poor eyesight. D. He paid no attention to his fans.
【答案】38. B 39. C 40. A 41. B
【解析】
