【2】a 考查冠词。headache具体指头疼的事情，a headache指一件令人头疼的事情，填a，表示泛指。

【3】dividing 考查非谓语动词。固定搭配consider doing sth“考虑做某事”；而固定搭配consider sb to be ….认为…是…；根据句意可知此处表示“考虑”，故填dividing。句意：你应该考虑把他们分成几个不同的小组。

【4】but考查连词。前后两句话之间是转折关系，故填but。句意：谁是你不很熟悉但是天天都可以看见的人。

【5】What 考查疑问词。本句是一个特殊疑问句，句中缺少宾语，填what。句意：我应该做什么呢？

【6】them 考查代词。根据句前面介词短语for the friends可以判断本句表示“你想要给他们买礼物”。固定搭配buy sb sth买东西给某人。

【7】on考查介词。固定搭配：on a diet”在节食”。本句是指我的朋友Mary在节食。

【8】healthy 考查形容词。形容词healthy放在系动词keep后面做表语。固定搭配：keep healthy保持健康。

【9】importantly 考查副词。本句中应该使用副词importantly做状语，修饰整个句子。

3、阅读理解

The arts, especially music, should be part of every school's lessons at every grade level. Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions. People develop all these skills when they learn music. Making music also lets children use their imagination. It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas.

Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do. In a music program, children can be part of a band instead of joining a gang (团伙). Parents can enjoy listening to their children's music instead of seeing them glued to a computer or TV screen. In a school band, students get to be part of a team. They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music.

Music builds self-confidence, too. It gives children a sense of achievement and success. Making music is something for them to be proud of, and it lets kids practice performing in front of an audience. Music gives children an opportunity for self-expression, and that helps develop their self-confidence.

Once again, music is important because it can make children better students, give them something positive to do, and build their character. That is why music should be offered in every single grade in every school.

A．improving their classroom skills and paying attention

答案：

【1】B

【2】C

【3】D

【4】A

解析试题分析: 本文是一篇论说文，介绍了音乐在学生的成长过程中不容忽视的作用，应该被列为学校里的一门必修课程。音乐不但能够提高学生们的注意力和服从指挥的能力，而且也能让学生发挥想象力，培养他们的创造能力。

【3】D主旨大意题。第三段首句提出Music builds self-confidence, too.“音乐也构建自信”，然后对此进行解释分析，由此判断此句为主题句，故答案选D。
