Earlier this year, she 【4】 (announce) her new album (专辑) Witness, together with a new idea for W music Perry calls her new style “purpose pop”, meaning a 【5】 (society) and political message. It seems that Perry has become tired 【6】 simply encouraging people. Now, she wants to educate them politically as well. The best example of Perry’s purposeful pop is 【7】 (probable) the song Chained to the Rhythm, in which Perry criticizes the 【8】 (behave) that people are unwilling to think more critically (批判的) about the world.
But when it comes to the concept (概念) of purposeful pop, it is, in fact, something a lot of pop stars have been doing for a while.

【解析】本文介绍了艺术家Katy Perry创作歌曲的有关理念。
【1】but 考查连词。not…but…固定短语“不是……而是……”。
【2】where 考查定语从句。先行词the songs在定语从句中作地点状语类似于in the songs,用关系副词where表示地点。
【3】discovering 考查非谓语动词。discovering和being our own master一道都是作介词about的宾语。
【4】announced 考查动词时态。Early this year这是一个过去的时间状语,本句用一般过去时,表示发生在过去的一个事实。
【5】social 考查形容词。social和后面的political构成并列形容词一起作名词message的定语。
【6】of 考查介词。become(be) tied of 固定短语,意思是“对……感到厌倦”。
【7】probably 考查副词。这里是副词修饰谓语动词is,表示“可能是”。
【8】behavior(u)r 考查名词。the behavior(u)r(行为) 作为criticized的宾语。that后面引导的是定语从句限定the behavior(u)r。
【9】argument 考查名词。argument “争论”的意思,此空前面的an 和后面的介词短语between white policemen and black citizens (公民) in the US都是作名词argument的定语。
【10】hoping 考查非谓语动词。这里的现在分词短语作谓语动词的伴随状语,起着补充说明作用。
