But how did it all start? When could people first choose the music they wanted to listen to?The 1900s: The player radioIn the late 19th and early 20th centuries, pianos became very popular and rich families bought “player pianos”. A player piano played music that was programmed on paper rolls with holes in them and you could also play it like a “normal” piano. In the mid 1920s player pianos began to disappear mainly because the radio got more popular.The 1910s: The first phonographs (留声机)As early as 1877, there were phonographs to play music on and by the 1910s, many families had one. The music was on “records” made of aluminum foil (铝箔). People could listen to them only a few times before the foil broke. Later the music was on wax cylinders (蜡筒). These could hold longer recordings (two to four minutes), and people could play them more often.The 1920s: Gramophones and record playersGramophones were similar to the phonographs, but they used flat vinyl (乙烯基) disks and not cylinders to hold the music. The disks went round, and first a steel needle, then later a small diamond, “took” the music off the record. Some of the disks could play for more than 20 minutes per side. Today some music lovers who are crazy about disks still use vinyl records.The 1960s1970s: Cassettes and the WalkmanIn the 1960s, the first cassette recorders became popular. A big step towards modern technology was the invention of the first portable (便携式的) cassette player, the “Walkman”， by the Japanese company, Sony in 1979. For the first time, people could listen to their favourite music while they were travelling, doing sports, or going for walks.1What happened to the player piano in the mid 1920s?AOnly the rich could afford it.BIt began to be used as a “normal” piano.CIt was gradually replaced by the radio.DIt was improved and played music automatically.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第二段介绍的“In the mid 1920s player pianos began to disappear mainly because the radio got more popular.”可知，这一时期无线电逐渐取代了自动演奏钢琴。2What do we know about phonographs and gramophones?AThey used different records to hold the music.BThey are still popular among music lovers now.CGramophones were easier to carry than phonographs.DPhonographs held longer recordings than gramophones.解析：选A细节理解题。根据第三段和第四段可知，phonographs和gramophones都是留声机，但一个是通过蜡筒唱片播放音乐，而另一个则是用圆盘唱片播放音乐。3The text is mainly about _.Athe history of musicBthe popularity of musicCthe different types of musicDthe development of listening to music解析：选D主旨大意题。文章按时间顺序介绍了二十世纪几种音乐播放设备自动演奏钢琴、留声机和随身听。故本文是关于人类听音乐的发展历程。加餐练(二)第卷规范增分练.语法填空Two years ago, my son said he wanted to learn how to play the piano.

My husband and I really didnt want him to give up, _3_ we insisted that he should practice it every night. However, he didnt like that idea and often played the piano _4_ (unwilling).

When you were a baby, life is simple. Youre happy if you are giving enough food and milk and your parents take care you. Then you learn to walk and begin to discover the world around you. When I was a child, my life was great. I loved it when I started the school, and learned to read and write. But I wasnt happy while my parents didnt let me stay up lately or watch TV.
