25、不然,是一份要求高的工作。故選C項(xiàng)。3.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句可知,舞臺(tái)上的無聲交流是很關(guān)鍵的,每位鋼琴家都有屬于自己風(fēng)格的點(diǎn)頭示意的方式,翻樂譜的人必須學(xué)會(huì)察言觀色,才能與演奏者高度默契,而這需要雙方經(jīng)過大量的練習(xí)才能實(shí)現(xiàn)。故選B項(xiàng)。4.D推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段內(nèi)容可推斷,Raspopova的丈夫其實(shí)很喜歡音樂,但是他在舞臺(tái)上只顧欣賞每一個(gè)音符,忘記了自己的本職工作,所以妻子才不斷提醒他,并稱其“theworstpageturner”。故選D項(xiàng)?!窘忸}導(dǎo)語】本文是說明文。音樂對(duì)喚醒癡呆病人的記憶十分有用。5.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的“.playsmusicfromherpastforher.ThatsLouisArmstrong,shesays.Shethenrecallsexactdetailsfromherlife.”可知,這位老人的記憶是被她過去聽過的一首歌喚醒的。6.A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的formstrongmemories及“.helpformmemories.Evenmanyyearslater,hearingthemusiccanbringbackmemoriesoftheselong-pastevents.”可知,本段主要討論了音樂可以幫助人們形成深刻的記憶,多
