Question

Do you prefer music to people?

If I had to  a1. this question 10－15 years ago, I would have said “yes”. Just ask my mom how many t2. she would tell me to take my headphones off and be part of the conversation. Anyway, I p3. to be in my own world, listening to music.

Music could r4. my mood(心境). On good days it was energetic, strong­willed and carefree. On not such good days music would cry for me and scream(尖叫) for me. I d5. on it because it said things I couldn't open up and things sometimes I didn't even understand. If I found a song w6. I liked very much, I'd listen to it over and over again.

However, I prefer people to music now. T7. music is great and it still influences me, there is something music cannot do. When you listen to music, you can take a lot from it. But you can't give a8.. That is why I prefer people.

【解析】

本文分别介绍了音乐和朋友各自的好处，以作者本人为例，分享了其听音乐的心情等。

1.句意：如果我10到15年前要回答这个问题，我会说“是的”。

此处和其前had to构成固定搭配have to do sth.意为“不得不做某事”，所以填动词原形；根据句意和首字母a，可知是answer回答，是动词，故答案为answer。

2.句意：只要问问我妈妈她告诉我多少次，让我摘下耳机，参与谈话。

此处被其前how many修饰，应该用名词复数；根据句意和首字母t，可知是time次数，是名词，故答案为times。

3.句意：不管怎样，我更喜欢呆在自己的世界里，听音乐。

此处作谓语，根据前文用一般过去时，可知此处也用一般过去时；根据句意和首字母p，可知是prefer更喜欢，是动词，故答案为preferred。

4.句意：音乐可以反映我的心境。

此处作谓语，其前有情态动词could，可知此处填动词原形；根据句意和首字母r，可知是reflect反映，是动词，故答案为reflect。

5.句意：我之所以依赖它，是因为它说了一些我无法敞开心扉的话以及有时我甚至不明白的事。

此处作谓语，根据语境，可知用一般过去时；根据句意和首字母d，可知是depend依靠，是动词，故答案为depended。

6.句意：如果我找到一首我非常喜欢的歌，我会反复去听。

此处引导一个定语从句，作从句的宾语，其先行词为物song，应该用关系代词which，故答案为which。

7.句意：虽然音乐很伟大，它仍然影响着我，但有些事情音乐是做不到的。

此处引导一个让步状语从句，应该用though引导，意为“虽然”，故答案为Though。

8.句意：但是你无法给予任何事物。

此处作宾语，还是否定句，根据句意和首字母a，可知是anything任何事，是复合不定代词，故答案为anything。

9.句意：和人们在一起，你可以给他们欢乐和欢笑，倾听他们的烦恼，让他们觉得自己很重要，甚至可以和他们一起哭泣。

此处作宾语，应该用名词；根据句意和首字母l，可知是laughter欢笑，是名词，故答案为laughter。

10.句意：你可以提供一些东西，而不总是索取。

此处作谓语，其前有情态动词can，可知用动词原形；根据句意和首字母o，可知是offer提供，是动词，故答案为offer。
