pass away 去世
1. died
句意:他在96岁的时候死了。
本空缺少谓语,故填动词。
根据原文最后一段:
Richard J. Richard, aged 96, passed away in Marco Island, Florida on Friday, November 26,2021.
理查德于2021年11月26日星期五在佛罗里达州马可岛去世,享年96岁。
可知96岁时理查德去世了,故本空应填动词“死亡(die)”,因为理查德去世这件事发生在过去,所以时态要用一般过去时,故本空动词用过去式,die(死亡)的过去式为died
故答案为died

2. attention/interest
句意:13岁的时候,两个小号手吸引了他的注意力/引起了他的兴趣。
空前为形容词性物主代词,故本空填名词。
根据原文第一段倒数第1-3行:
At the age of 13, Renald Richard went to see a band (乐队) perform (表演) at a church dance. He noticed two young trumpet players in the band. He thought they were cool. Then Renald started lessons on the trumpet.
13岁的时候,雷纳德·理查德去看一个乐队在教堂舞会上的表演。他注意到乐队里有两个年轻的小号手。他觉得它们很酷。然后雷纳德开始学习小号。
可知理查德学习小号是因为他觉得那两个年轻小号手很酷,即这两个小号手吸引了他的注意力,也可说是引起了他的兴趣。故本空填“注意力”:attention或者“兴趣”:interest
catch one's attention/interest 
吸引某人的注意/引起某人的兴趣
故答案为attention/interest

3. role
句意:他在雷·查尔斯的乐队中扮演着重要而角色。
空前为不定冠词an和形容词important(重要的),故本空填单数名词。
根据原文第三段第2-3行:
Soon Richard became Charles’band leader.
不久,理查德成了查尔斯的乐队队长。
可知理查德在乐队中地位很高,即他在乐队中扮演着重要的角色。本题考查固定搭配:
play an important role in 在……中扮演重要角色
故答案为role

4. based
句意:坎耶·维斯特根据他的《我有一个女人》改编的《掘金者》连续16周位居榜首。
根据第三段倒数第1-3行:
He was very excited when music artist Kanye West used “I Got a Woman” as the basis (基础) for his hit song “Gold Digger”, which was No. 1 in the world for 16 weeks on the Billboard charts, 2006-2007.
当音乐艺术家坎耶·维斯特将《我有一个女人》作为他的热门歌曲《掘金者》的基础时,他非常兴奋,这首歌在2006年至2007年的公告牌排行榜上连续16周位居世界第一。
可知《掘金者》是基于《我有一个女人》创作出来的。
base ... on ... /be based on 基于……
分析可知,句子谓语是remained(保持),故本空是非谓语动词做后置定语。因为《掘金者》与动词base之间是被动关系,所以此处用过去分词based,故答案为based

5. without
句意:理查德认为他无法想象没有音乐的生活。
根据倒数第二段第1-2行:
To be a musician, it's like fulfilling a part of your life that's not replaceable. 
成为一名音乐家,就像是完成了你生活中不可替代的一部分。
可知理查德认为音乐是他生活中非常重要的部分,所以他无法想象没有音乐的生活,故本空填介词"without(没有)",故答案为without
I can either listen to it on the radio or(要么...要么...) watch music videos on TV. 
Music plays an important role in(在……发挥重要的作用 my life. When I feel sad, music cheers me up(使兴奋). While I'm lonely, it can be with me through(度过) the hard time(艰难的日子). The other day I happened to(碰巧) hear "water" by Tan Dun. In the work, he makes over 50 sounds from water by controlling the speed of water flow(水流). That's really amazing.
