Popular music is very popular with American students. Almost every student carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class, after class, and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers and play music loudly as they drive on the street. Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports, the weather, and the life of American people. Most of the radio programmes are music.

Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make CDs or tapes which radio stations in many places broadcast (广播) . Once the popular singer is heard all over the country, young people buy his or her tapes. Some of the money from these tapes comes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes, all the young people want to meet him or her. Now the singer has become a pop star.

There are other kinds of music that are popular among Americans. One is called folk music. It tells stories about the common life of Americans. Another is called western or country music. This was started by cowboys who would sing at night to the cows they were watching. Today, any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music.

1. _____ kinds of music are mentioned in this passage.

2.When pop singers ______, they are regarded as pop stars.

3.From the passage we know that country music is about the______.

4.Which of the following is true?

Dear Li Hua,

Glad to hear from you last Friday. From your letter, I’ve learned a lot about Tanggu, where great changes have taken place in the past few years. It must be more beautiful than it used to be. I’m expecting to visit it sometime in the near future.

Now, I’m eager to know something about your school life. I will be delighted if you can tell me something about it.

I am looking forward to your reply.
