  At one time no one could travel on an English road faster than four miles an hour.That was the law until 1896.A man had to walk in front of a car which could not go faster than the man.At night the man had to carry a red lamp.

  Once Charles Rolls brought a car from France to England,But he wanted to drive faster than four miles an hour.In order to have no trouble with the police,he had a talk with some of the police officers,who ordered their policemen to look the other way when the car came along the road.This was a good plan in the country,but not so easy to follow in the busy streets of London.

  One night Rolls and some friends started from London on their journey to Cambridge.One of the men walked in front with the red lamp,but he walked as fast as he could.The police became very interested in walls and shop-fronts when they heard the car,and not one of them saw it.

  They reached a hill;but what a waste of time it was to drive down the hill at four miles an hour!Rolls was getting ready to jump into the car;but then he noticed a policeman who was not looking the other way.The slow car reached him.

  “Good evening,”said the policeman,looking at the car.

  “Good evening,”said Rolls,holding the lamp.

  “One of these horseless things,”said the policeman,looking at it with interest.

  “Yes,”said Rolls,and waited.

  “I've often wanted a ride in one;but of course policemen can't buy things like that.”He turned and looked hopefully in Rolls's face.

  “Jump in,”said Rolls.

  “Thanks,”said the policeman,and did so.“Now,”he said,sitting down,“you can let it go just as you like down this hill.There isn't another policeman on this road for a mile and a half.”

  Look out for the “Made in the USA” label (标签) on some best-selling music from Japan’s top pop artists. Japan’s chart-topping (流行榜) musicians, looking to make music with some of the top talent in the United State, or just looking for a bit of anonymity (匿名) overseas away from the press pack at home, are heading to studios in places like New York and Los Angeles to record music.

  Among the top 20 album (一套唱片) in Japan in May, 14 were made by Japanese artists and six of those were partially or completely recorded in the United States. The other six slots (位置) in the top 20 chart were filled by overseas artists. Japanese artists started coming in force to the United States to make music during the heady (轻率的) days of the late 1980s when the yen (日元) was strong and the novelty (新颖) factor was high. Yet despite the fact that the novelty factor has worn off and the economy has taken a nosedive, top artists are still heading stateside[在(向、来自)美国本土].

  Japan is the world’s second-biggest music market after the United States with yearly sales of around US $ 5 billion. Top Japanese artists have earning power near that of their counter parts in the United States and Europe. “What brings Japanese artists to New York a lot of times is the cachet (威望) of recording in America, and the energy you get when you come to New York to record,” said Steve Rosenthal, the owner of the Magic Shop recording studio. “The city where you make a record has a lot to do with what the record eventually sounds like and feels like, and there is a certain energy you get when you make a record in New York.” The first Japanese artists started coming around 10 years ago and now make up about 15 percent of the studio’s clientele (客户). Japanese artist Bonnie Pink recently cut an album at the studio and rockers (摇滚歌手), Super Car also paid a visit hoping to catch the vibe (氛围) that helped propel (推进) the Ramones to stardom (明星身份,明星界).

1.From the passage we learn that ________.

[  ]

A.most of the top album in Japan in May were recorded in the United States

B.the label “made in the USA” can be found on most of the top artists’ album

C.the United States is the biggest music market in the world

D.Japan is the biggest music market

2.What brings Japanese artists to the United States is ________.

[  ]

A.the more powerful American musicians

B.the better economic circumstances on the United States

C.the better reward

D.the energy one can get in the United States

3.The word “nosedive” (para. 2) most probably means ________.

[  ]

A.sensitivity
B.a disgusting quality
C.sudden rising
D.sharp descent

4.Which of the following statements is true?

[  ]

A.The Japanese musicians began to come to the United States around a decade ago.

B.Japanese musicians have become the main clients of the American studios.

C.Japanese musicians came to the United States with the economic support from the home.

D.On the top chart, there is no foreign album.

5.We can infer from the sentence “what bring Japanese artists to New York… is the cachet of recording in America” ( Para. 3 ) that ________.

[  ]

A.Japanese musicians come to New York just to get a label of “made in the USA”

B.a label of “made in the USA” means that the music is the best

C.in Japanese’s mind, the foreign music is better than the domestic

D.the American music is the best in the world
