3.For five days,Edmonton's Downtown Park is transformed into one huge stage where artists are able to share their talents,and where people are able to celebrate and enjoy themselves.Since is beginning in 1980,the Edmonton Folk Music Festival has been commemorating(念)the ture feeling of what folk music is all about and that's the traditional togetherness(友愛)that is felt when people gather to share stories and feelings through song.
This year will be the sixth year when volunteer Riedel will be offering up her time to the festival."People coming off a busy spring and summer have a moment of relaxation,"Riedel said."It's really east to relax,and it's great seeing family and friends have fun together."These families and friends come from all different kinds of musical tastes.People who take pleasure in Blues are there,so are people who love Bluegrass.This festival does its best to develop everyone's musical interests.
With so many years of expenence.the festival has become a well-oiled machine,and does whatever it can to make attendees feel as possible.There are free water stations throughout the venue(舉辦地)for people to fill up their travel cups.When people buy food,reusable ashes are given a $2plate fee,but that is returned when the plate is brought back.
The festival has completely sold out of tickets,and in record time.But with big names such as Van Morrison and Jakob Dylan,it's easy to see how that was going to happen.There is no parking area during the festival,so using the Park & Ride system or Edmonton Transit is highly recommended.A bike lock-up area is provided and will be available Thursday until Sunday one hour before the gates open until 45minutes after the gates close.
The Edmonton Folk Music Festival begins on Wednesday,Aug.4with Van Morrison playing the special donation fund (基金)concert,and will finish up on Sunday,Aug.8.

分析 本文主要講述為了讓人們了解民間音樂的真正意義而舉辦的一個節(jié)日---the Edmonton Folk Music Festival.
解答 60B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.由本文的第一段信息"Since is beginning in 1980,the Edmonton Folk Music Festival has been commemorating(念)the ture feeling of what folk music is all about and that's the traditional togetherness(友愛)that is felt when people gather to share stories and feelings through song."可知B項正確.61A.推理判斷題.由第二段第一句話"This year will be the sixth year when volunteer Riedel will be offering up her time to the festival."可以推知Riedel至少做志愿者5年了,故A項正確.62B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章第三段可知the Edmonton Folk Music Festival組織的井井有條,并且有很多特點(diǎn),所以作者強(qiáng)烈推薦the Edmonton Folk Music Festival.故B項正確.63B.標(biāo)題判斷題.通讀全文可知文章是關(guān)于一個民間音樂節(jié),4個選項里只有B符合.
點(diǎn)評 這是一篇?dú)v史文化類閱讀文章.歷史文化類閱讀理解文章屬高考常選材料之一.這類文章常涉及歷史、文化、法制、宗教等方面的文學(xué)藝術(shù)、發(fā)明創(chuàng)造、文化遺產(chǎn)保護(hù)、宗教與文化、風(fēng)俗與習(xí)慣、道德與法制、中外文學(xué)名著節(jié)選、等等.這類材料的命題點(diǎn)往往落在主旨大意題、事實細(xì)節(jié)題上. 在做這類閱讀理解題時,我們應(yīng)注意以下幾個方面:1、采用先題后文:先讀題目,再帶著問題讀文章.這類閱讀理解文章相對來說事實細(xì)節(jié)題稍多一點(diǎn),如果帶著問題讀文章,有利于我們抓細(xì)節(jié). 2、先做細(xì)節(jié)題.因為做完了局部性的事實細(xì)節(jié)題后,自然會加深我們對文章的理解,這樣更有利于做主旨大意題. 3、重點(diǎn)敲定主旨題.主旨大意題提問的形式主要有兩大類:一類是Main idea型;一類是Topic或Title型.
