Answer 1

分析 这篇是Max与Emma的一场舞台剧的第一场景：
地点：Sunville中学的餐厅．
内容：Emma说Sosa老师说他们的乐队可以在才艺表演上表演．Max很高兴，说要放学后找Felipe一起来练习．可是Emma认为Felipe不适合参加乐队，他对数学更感兴趣．Max说数学和音乐是有联系的，学习音乐和玩键盘就像是学数学公式．最后，Emma也同意了Max的观点，同意Felipe参加乐队表演．

解答 28．B 判断推理题．根据"With Felipe on keyboard，we'll really have an edge over the other groups"中的over the other groups（超出其他组），可知edge的含义为"优势"本句表示"在Felipe键盘的帮助下，我们将有超出其他组的优势．temperature温度；advantage优点；conversation 对话；relationship关系．故选B．
29．B 细节理解题．根据其后Emma的解释说明："EMMA：Really？He seems more interested  in maths than anything else．"可知Emma认为Felipe不擅长音乐，更擅长数学．故选B．
30．D 细节理解题．根据题干中"where the scene happens"，可知问的是场景发生的地点．A选项为Emma的语气词；B选项为Max的表情描述；C选项为主要角色介绍；D选项为场景的地点．故选D．

点评 本题考查舞台剧一个场景的阅读理解．读懂前两行的介绍是关键．这个场景是以对话的形式呈现的，所以较简单．根据题干问题去找答案即可．
