三、(2025·陕西中考)任务型阅读:阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,完成下列各题。
Zhao Xiang is a seventh grader who loves music. He has a good voice and is in a singing club. Recently, he had a problem. His school would hold a singing competition. His class teacher, Mr Yao, talked to the class and they decided to sing a chorus masterpiece* at the competition.
For the performance, Mr Yao even invited his wife, a local musician, to guide the practice. Zhao Xiang thought it was a good chance for him to show his talent.
At the first practice, things did not go as what Zhao Xiang had expected—he was too good to join the others. The musician was not satisfied and Zhao Xiang felt bad. Mr Yao saw everything and he came up to Zhao Xiang and comforted him, “Please remember, Zhao Xiang, singing a chorus is NOT one person’s job. Everyone has to work together to achieve a good result.” Zhao Xiang realized that his voice would not help if he failed to work well with others.
Zhao Xiang changed his way of singing—he did not sing so loud as he used to, and his voice became more mixed with the others’. He even helped the musician to train those who had trouble in singing by showing them how to breathe, how to control voice and sing gracefully. The practice was hard, but everyone was happy with him—the class teacher, the musician, his classmates, and even his parents—about his development!
At last, the Big Day came. The whole class was on the stage. They tried their best and they made it! When the headmaster read out first prize, everyone jumped up and shouted with joy. They threw Zhao Xiang up into the air. Zhao Xiang felt great because he knew he was not just singing for himself but for the class as a team. He learned that teamwork is needed everywhere and that teamwork is about trust and helping one another. He was so proud because he had done something important for his class!
