When someone says, ―Well, I guess I‘ll have to go to face the music.‖ It doesn‘t

mean he is planning to go to a concert. It is 16 less pleasant, like 17__ in by your

boss to explain why you did this and did that, and why you did not do this 18 that.

Terrible music, indeed, but it has to 19 . At some time or 20 , every one of us has

had to ―face the music‖, especially as children. We can all remember father‘s 21 voice,

―I want to talk to you!‖ And only 22 we did not obey him. What an unpleasant

business it 23 !

The phrase ―to face the music‖ is known 24 every American, young and old. It is

at least 100 years old. Where did the 25 come from?

The first 26 comes from American novelist James Fennimore Cooper. He said, in

1851, 27 the expression was first 28 by actors while _ 29_ in the wings to go on

stage. After they got their clue (暗示) to go on, they often said, ―It‘s time to go to face

the music.‖ And this is 30 what they did face — the orchestra (管弦乐队) which was

just below the stage.

An actor might be frightened or 31 as he moved on to the stage in front of him. The

audience might be friendly, or perhaps unfriendly, especially 32 he forgot his lines.

But he had to go out. If he did not, there would be no play. So, ―to face the

music‖ 33 to mean: having to go 34 something, no matter how unpleasant

the 35 might be, because you knew you had no choice.

24.A. by B. for C. to D. of 2 25.A. question B. proverb C. information D. expression
