【語篇解讀】Steve癡迷于聽音樂，隨時隨地都在聽音樂，對此他母親頗為擔心。

【1】wakes up to his favorite radio station在這里意思是＂醒來就去聽他喜歡的電臺＂，to表示一種方向或者結果。

【2】由上文的wakes up可知，是＂在吃早餐時＂。

【3】Steve是學生，因此選C項。

【4】Steve在數學課上聽音樂，而不是在教室里。

【5】 在數學課上聽音樂，老師當然是生氣了。

【6】 一周不能聽音樂對Steve來說是可怕的。這里表示Steve對音樂的癡迷，一刻也不能離開。

【7】always和frequently相比，前者更能表示母親對此行為的反對。

【8】她無法理解我怎么能夠聽著音樂來做家庭作業。

【9】with短語表伴隨。

【10】但是音樂能幫助(helps)我集中注意力。

【11】事實上，目前我彈奏得還不好。

【15】空格處和fast并列，故選D項。

【16】音樂讓人們忘記他們的問題，而無法去除這些問題，所以不能用remove。

【17】音樂給人帶來快樂。

【18】這里表示轉折，故用But。他的母親卻對此表示擔心。用however，則要用逗號隔開。

【19】這里用do表示強調。

【20】drive sb. crazy是習慣搭配，意思是＂使某人發瘋，使某人狂熱＂。
