Every guitar is made of several different kinds of wood.Each piece is carefully chosen and then cut to fit the part of the guitar for which it is designed.The most important part of a guitar is the soundboard--the piece of wood with a large hole that lies under the strings(弦,线).Guitar makers are careful to make the soundboard just the right shape and thickness.Then they fix stripes(长条)of wood across the inside in a special pattern, which helps strengthen the soundboard and improves the tone of the guitar. Wood for the curvy (弯曲的) sides of the guitar must be soaked (浸湿) in water and bent over a hot iron pipe.When all the pieces of the guitar are ready, they are carefully stuck together with glue.Special woodworking tools are used to shape and smooth the neck of the guitar.The craftsperson must make sure that the neck is perfectly centered over the soundboard.

Finally guitar strings are attached and tightened to make just the right musical tones.Then it’s time to play a song.(273 words) 67.The best title for this passage may be _____.

Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of. 72 Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live. Older persons also form bad habits as long as they live, and sometimes become ruined by them. 73 Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and thoroughness. Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on. 74 Unfortunately older persons often form habits which ought to have been avoided. We ought to keep from all these bad habits. 75 A. It is very important for us to know why we should get used to good habits. B. Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed. C. These are all easily formed habits. D. Whether good or not habit are, they are easy to get rid of. E. There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help. F. It’s therefore very important for us to pay attention to the formation of habits. G. Meanwhile, try to form such habits as will prove good for ourselves and others. (责任编辑：admin) |
