It is something far less unhappy than you are called in by your leader to explain why you did this and that or why you did not do this or that.At some time or another, every one of us has to “face the music”, especially (尤其) as children. We can all remember fathers angry words “I want to talk to you”. And only because we did not listen to him. What a bad thing it was!In the middle or at the end of every term, we students have to “face the music”. The result of the exam will decide whether we will face the music or not. If.that means parents cold faces and contempt (輕視) of the teachers and classmates.“To face the music” is well known to every American, young or old. It is at least 100 years old. It really means that you have to do something, no matter (無論) how terrible the whole thing might be, because you know you have no choice.根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，選擇正確答案：1. “To face the music” means “to_ ”.A. do something that we dont like toB. go to the theatreC. go to the music showD. do something that we want to2. In the third paragraph, “If.”really means “If_ ”.A. we dont do a good job B. we get an“A” in the examC. the exam is easy D. the exam is difficult3.

The young Americans know what “to face the music” means.D. Only the old in the United States know the meaning of “to face the music”.難句注釋 I guess Ill have to face the music. 我想這下我得自食其果了。face the music 指由于自己的決定或行為而接受批評(píng)、承擔(dān)后果等。Total words:200Reading time:_Reading speed: _It is something far less unhappy than you are called in by your leader to explain why you did this and that or why you did not do this or that.它要比你被老板喊進(jìn)去解釋為什么這樣那樣做，或者為什么不這樣那樣做要難過得多。Passage B閱讀理解Julia lived in the countryside, but one year she decided to visit the capital city to do some shopping and to see the sights.
