11、fun at all.”一句，引出对有音乐听觉障碍人群(amusic)的介绍，即表明 amusic 不能享受音乐带来的乐趣。far from 远非；远离，far from enjoyable即一点都感受不到乐趣。因此，正确答案为 A。2.C语意理解题。由“defective hearing”定位至第三段，它的含义需要分析上下文句意。该句子说明了音乐听觉障碍产生的原因是大脑的差异。该词组所在的部分与前句“The difference is complex”并列，“it”指前文的“difference”，强调大脑差异的复杂程度。紧接着后半句又提到音乐听觉障碍人士同样能听到非音乐类的声音。整体而言，

12、即意为大脑的差异很复杂，并且这种复杂并不属于一种“defective hearing”，因为音乐听觉障碍人士同样能理解非音乐类的声音。将各选项的含义带入原文，可知正确答案为 A“听觉问题”，即 amusics 并没有听觉问题，他们也能理解音乐以外的声音。3.A细节信息题。由题干信息定位至最后一段最后一句话。由“I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy.”可知 Margaret 希望在 17 岁就能得知自己属于amusic，而不是 70 岁。即她希望自己的问题更早得被诊断出来，正确答案为

13、A。4.B主旨大意题。本题考查考生对整篇文章主旨大意的理解与概括。文章首段引出了音乐听觉障碍人士(amusic)的定义。第二段详细介绍了音乐听觉障碍对 amusic 的生活造成的诸多不便。紧接着第三段揭示了 amusic 的产生原因大脑差异。最后一段介绍音乐听觉障3 碍这一症状的诊断能带来的益处。由此可见，本文主要讨论了一些人无法享受音乐的乐趣，选项 B 正确。W 重点单词 1.population n.人口 2.recognize v.认出，识别 3.identify v.鉴定，识别 4.isolation n.隔离，孤立 5.appreciate v.欣赏，感激 P 重点短语 1.at a
