1、 第二十九篇： Ill Be Bach Composer David Cope(第1題關(guān)鍵詞) is the inventor of a computer program that writes original works of classical music(第1題答案出處). It took Cope 30 years to develop the software. Now most people cant tell the difference區(qū)別 between music by the famous 著名的German composer作

2、曲家 J. S. Bach (1685--1750) and the Bach-like類似巴赫 compositions作品, from Copes computer. 作曲家大衛(wèi) 科普發(fā)明了一個(gè)計(jì)算機(jī)軟件，它能編寫出古典音樂的原創(chuàng)作品?？破栈?30 年才完成這個(gè)軟件?，F(xiàn)在，科普的計(jì)算機(jī)寫出的作品與德國著名作曲家 J . S．巴赫寫的作品很相似，很少有人能分辨出其中的不同。 　　It all started in 1980 in the United States, when Cope(第2題關(guān)鍵詞) was trying to write an opera(第2題答案出處).

3、He was having trouble thinking of new melodies, so he wrote a computer program 程序to create the melodies旋律. At first this music was not easy to listen to. What did Cope do? He began to rethink how human beings compose music. He realized that composers brains work like big databases. First, they take

4、in all the music that they have ever heard. Then they take out the music that they dislike. Finally, they make new music from what is left. According to Cope, only the great composers(第3題關(guān)鍵詞) are able to create the database accurately, remember it, and form new musical patterns 模式from it. (第3題答案出處)

5、 這一切始于 1980 年的美國，那時(shí)科普正在寫一部歌劇，但是他無法創(chuàng)作出新的旋律，于是他編寫了一個(gè)計(jì)算機(jī)軟件來幫他編曲。最開始的時(shí)候，軟件寫出的樂曲并不動(dòng)聽。科普是怎么做的呢？他開始重新考慮人們作曲的方式。他想到作曲家的大腦就像一個(gè)大數(shù)據(jù)庫，他們先是吸收他們聽過的所有音樂，然后去除他們不喜歡的，最后再根據(jù)留下的音樂來創(chuàng)作出新的旋律。科普認(rèn)為，只有偉大的作曲家才能建立好的數(shù)據(jù)庫，并且能熟記于心，從而創(chuàng)作出新的音樂。 　　Cope built a huge database of existing music. He began with hundreds of works by Bach

6、. The software analyzed the data: it broke it down into smaller pieces and looked for patterns. It then combined the pieces into new patterns. Before long, the program could compose short Bach-like works. They werent good, but it was a start. 科普根據(jù)現(xiàn)有的音樂建立了龐大的數(shù)據(jù)庫。最開始的時(shí)候，數(shù)據(jù)庫包含了幾百部巴赫的作品?？破盏能浖⑦@些數(shù)據(jù)進(jìn)行分析：

He continued to improve the software. Soon it could analyze more complex music. He also added many other composers, including his own work ,to the datab

The process required a lot of collaboration between the composer and Emmy. Cope listened

9、to the computers musical ideas and used the ones that he liked. With Emmy, the opera took only two weeks to finish. It was called Cradle Falling, and it was a great success! Cope received some of the best reviews of his career, but no one knew exactly how he had composed the work. 幾年后，科普的軟件“艾米”已經(jīng)能夠

10、幫助他創(chuàng)作歌劇了。創(chuàng)作過程需要作曲家和艾米共同配合?？破振雎牥讓懗龅囊魳菲?，從中選取他認(rèn)為好的。有了艾米的幫助，科普只用了兩個(gè)星期就完成了這部歌劇，叫作《搖籃墜落》 。演出獲得巨大成功，科普也得到了他有生以來最高的評(píng)價(jià)，但是沒有人知道他究竟是怎樣創(chuàng)作出這部歌劇的。 　　Since that first opera, Emmy has written thousands of compositions. Cope still gives Emmy feedback on what he likes and doesnt like of her music, but she is doi

11、ng most of the hard work of composing (第5題答案出處)these days! 從那以后，艾米已經(jīng)寫了上千部作品?？破宅F(xiàn)在依然會(huì)給艾米反饋，告訴她自己哪些音樂是他喜歡的，哪些是不喜歡的，但是現(xiàn)在大部分的工作是由艾米來完成的！ 練習(xí)： 　　1.

14、hs music helped him a lot 　　D) Emmy did much more work than a composer 答案與題解： 　　1．A第一段的第一句：David Cope發(fā)明了一個(gè)可以編寫出古典音樂的電腦軟件。 　　2．c從第二段的第一句可以看出，David編寫電腦軟件的目的是寫歌劇。A、B和D都屬于創(chuàng)作歌劇的一部分。 　　3．D第二段的后半部分講的是偉大的歌劇作者與一般的歌劇作者的不同之處是通過對(duì)數(shù)據(jù)進(jìn)行準(zhǔn)確的構(gòu)建、記憶而后創(chuàng)作出新的音樂形式。 　　4．B從第五段第一句可知Emmy是一計(jì)算機(jī)軟件。 ’ 　　5．D從本文第一句可知David是一

15、個(gè)作曲家，不是計(jì)算機(jī)程序員，所以排除A；B、C內(nèi)容沒有提及；從本文的第五段和第六段可知，Emmy大大提高了David的創(chuàng)作速度，最后一句，大部分困難的工作都由Emmy來做，所以作曲家只干一小部分工作?！? 提問 答案 1. The music composed by David Cope is about David Cope 創(chuàng)作的音樂是有關(guān)于 2. By developing a computer software, David Cope aimed 通過開發(fā)電腦軟件，David Cope的目標(biāo)是 3.
