词义猜测题。根据第一段中的“ZhangKemintriedhishardesttoresistbecominga6\nprofessionalmusicianlikehisgrandfather...”以及第二段中的“Iwasrebellious.AlmosteveryoneinmyfamilyisamusicianandIwantedtobedifferent.”可以推出distract的意思是“转移注意力”。故选A。答案

推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Heisveryniceandfunny.WhenImademistakesduringaperformance，hewillsayit'shisfault...”可以推出KerryHolahan认为张克敏是一位友好的、容易相处的人。答案 B4．HowoldwasZhangKeminwhenhemovedtoToronto?A．About10.B．About36.C．About2.D．About12.解析 数字计算题。根据第二段中的“...Zhang，36，whohaslearnedpiano，violinandviolasincechildhood.”以及倒数第三段中的“ZhangandhisparentsmovedtoToronto，Canadain1990.”可知现在(2022年)张克敏36岁，那么1990年他大约是12岁。答案

段落大意题。文章第七段中提到张克敏现在做的工作与他祖父以前做的一样，并且具体介绍了他祖父所从事的工作情况。因此该段的大意应该是：张克敏现在是在做什么样的工作。答案 BB体裁：说明文 话题：社会生活
