答案　B

　　15．What did Gershwin do during his stay in Paris?

　　A．He created one of his best works.

　　B．He studied with Nadia Boulanger.

　　C．He argued with French critics.

　　D．He changed his music style.

　　解析　细节理解题。根据原文第四段中“It still remains one of his most famous works.”其中it指的就是An American in Paris，“one of his most famous works.”即A选项中的 one of his best works。

　　答案　A

　　16．What do we learn from the last paragraph?

　　A．Many of Gershwin's works were lost.

　　B．The death of Gershwin was widely reported.

　　C．A concert was held in memory of Gershwin.

　　D．Brain cancer research started after Gershwin's death.

　　解析　推理判断题。根据原文最后一段，“Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages.”即说明了B选项“The death of Gershwin was widely reported.”故B正确。其它选项均没有涉及。

　　答案　B

　　17．Which of the following best describes Gershwin?

　　A．Talented and productive.

　　B．Serious and boring.

　　C．Popular and unhappy.

　　D．Friendly and honest.

　　解析　主旨大意题。从全文看，这个人不可能用boring这样感情色彩负面的词来形容，故B错误；文中提到他popular，但没有说他unhappy，故C错误；friendly和honest在文中没有具体体现，没有根据，故D错误；A选项中talented有天分的，productive多产的，准确地描述了Gershwin作为一个作曲家所具备的素质。
