【解析】

【导语】本文主要讲述乔治的妈妈认为学习乐器可以让他全面发展，他来到音乐商店，在尝试各种乐器

后，最终被小提琴的优美旋律吸引了。

【13题详解】

句意：这本来是要让他变得全面发展、有趣什么的，但他认为吃饼干可以让他变得全面。

simple简单的；interesting有趣的；honest诚实的；angry愤怒的。根据上文“Georgeneededtoplayan

instrument,oratleastthatwaswhathismomsaid.”并结合选项可知，演奏一种乐器应是可以让乔治变得全面

发展，有趣。故选B。

【14题详解】

句意：在商店的后面，他可以看到一些顾客在试用钢琴和吉他。

clearing清除；finding发现；testing测试；pointing指向。根据下文乔治尝试一些乐器可知，此处指一些顾

客在试用钢琴和吉他，testout”测试"，是固定词组。故选C。

【15题详解】

句意：他会让她后悔自己的决定。

explain解释；accept接受；trust相信；regret后悔。根据上文“Hemovedtowardsthedrums.Theywereloud

andwouldirritate（激怒）hismomforhavingsuggestedheshouldlearnmusic.”可知，鼓的声音很大，会激怒他

的母亲，因为她曾建议他学音乐，所以此处表示如果选择打鼓，这会让妈妈后悔自
