【1题详解】
细节理解题。 “The lessons leaned during the six weeks are profound（深远的）”意思是：这六周期间我们学的课程是深远的。以及DATES部分的第一句The Songs of Hope 2013 ssion will run from June 17 to July 30.意思是：2013年希望歌曲竞选时间是从六月十七日到七月三十日。因此得知，这个夏令营将持续六个星期左右。故选D项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据”an overnight performing arts summer camp”可知夏令营可以提高孩子的表演能力；根据They arrive as strangers but soon become friends as they learn popular songs and dances from each other's cultures.句意是：他们到达时是陌生人，不久成为好朋友并且互相交流学习流行歌曲和舞蹈。从这里可知，孩子们在夏令营可以交到更多的外国朋友，了解更多的外国文化。C项意为”在美国旅游”，文中没有相关信息支持。故选C项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据DATES部分的最后一句”We are happy to arrange a special study room for late arrivals to make up for the missing lessons”.句意是：我们很高兴，因为到达的晚为了弥补错过的课程而安排了一个特殊的学习房间。可知，对于来得晚的学生他们会安排补课。故选D项。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据PARTICIPANT FEE部分可知，每个初次参加夏令营的学生的学费是2950美元。根据SPECIAL DISCOUNTS部分中的，there is a 20% fee discount for additional participants from your family if you have a brother or sister who is a Songs of Hope participant.可知，如果你的兄弟姐妹是希望之歌的参与者，那么来自你家人的额外参与者可以享受20%的费用折扣。如果你的兄弟姐妹是夏令营的成员，那么你家庭中的另外的参加者以享受20%的费用折扣。所以费用为2950+2950xo.8=5310。故选A项。

Every girl dreams and Li Xie is no exception. She has read dozens of books on how to be a ballerina. Lake is her favorite. She hopes one day her dream will come true. She has taken ballet lessons and all her teachers confirm she is a good student.
One day she saw an advertiment that a famous ballerina troupe(演出团) will be performing in her hometown. Her thoughts ran wild, “I must meet up with the leader of the troupe and show him my skills.” she murmured to herlf.
She dresd herlf in her ballerina costume and managed to avoid the guards and hid in the dressing room. To her luck，the leader entered and she timidly knocked at the door. She bravely approached him and handed him a bunch of red ros and in her excitement the thorns(刺) pricked her hand but she did not make any complaints about the pain. The leader obrved her action as she told him her dream. “Alright, you dance and I will give you my verdict(评审意见).” But half way through the dance he stopped her and said, “I’m sorry you’re not good enough!” On hearing this, Li Xie ran as fast as her legs could carry her and was ashamed. She gave up her dream.
