Answer 1

分析 文章讲述了很多人都渴望成功，尤其是一些乐队．重点介绍了一个乐队和其他乐队的不同之处．

解答 1．honest  考查形容词．此处是一个固定短语，to be honest，意思是诚实的来说．
2．attach 考查动词．attach importance to 认为…重要，根据句意可知，说的是一种事实情况，故用一般现在时．
3．becoming 考查动名词．结合上句attach importance to 可知，to是介词，所以需用becoming形式．
4．appreciating 考查动名词．根据with everyone clapping 可知，with+名词+doing，所以此处 appreciating 和clapping并列．
5．form 考查动词．句意为，很多音乐家碰到一起并组成乐队，此处form和meet并列构成谓语．
6．earn  考查动词．结合前面的内容they play in the street or subway to passers-by so that 可知，他们在街道、地铁向行人演奏目的是赚钱．
7．played 考查动词．分析句子结构，The musicians是主语，所以句子缺少谓语，play jokes on 是固定短语，对…开玩笑．而且和as well as 后面的played music并列．
8．based 考查形容词．在这里be based on是固定短语，意思是建立在…基础上．
9．familiar考查形容词．句意为粉丝们建立俱乐部为了能多了解这些乐队，get familiar with表示对…熟悉，了解．
10．up 考查副词．此处考查固定短语，break up意思是解散，分解．句意为尽管乐队在1970年解散，在20世纪八十年代中期又复合了．
