Today we will explain a very old saying that has had a big influence on rockandroll music. That saying is “A rolling stone gathers no moss”．It has several meanings. One meaning is that a person who never settles down in one place will not be successful. Another is that someone who is always moving, with no roots in one place, avoids responsibilities.

This proverb was said to be first used in the 1500s. But in the 1960s, the expression “rolling stone” became famous in the world of rockandroll music. It became the name of a song, a rock group and a magazine.

Experts say it all started with a song by the American singer and guitarist Muddy Waters. He was one of the country's top blues musicians until his death in 1983. His music influenced singers like Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan. In 1950, Muddy Waters recorded a song called “Rolling Stone”．

A British rock group is said to have taken its name from Muddy Waters' song. The Rolling Stones performed for the first time in 1962.The group's members called themselves “the world's greatest rockandroll band”．

In 1965, Bob Dylan released his song “Like a Rolling Stone”．It is one of his best known and most influential works.

It is an angry song about a woman who was once rich and successful. But now she is on her own，“with no direction home, like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone”．

In 1967, a young man named Jann Wenner started a magazine and he named it “Rolling Stone”．The magazine reported on rock music and the popular culture that the music created. By 1971，“Rolling Stone” had become the leading rock music and counterculture publication. It is still popular today.

20．Which person can be described as a rolling stone according to the proverb?

A．A person who always changes his jobs.

B．A person who has a successful career.

C．A person who has no family.

D．A person who is out of work.

A．Elvis Presley B．Bob Dylan

C．Muddy Waters D．Jann Wenner

22．Who first used “rolling stone” as a name for music?

A．Jann Wenner. B．Bob Dylan.

C．Elvis Presley. D．Muddy Waters.

GUESS what’s making 9 million US teenagers scream at the top of their voices this summer? It's not the Hulk or Iron man hitting someone across a room, but the catchy beat of the music in Disney's latest TV movie Camp Rock, which came out in the US on June 20. The show attracted more than 8.9 million viewers.

So how does Camp Rock attract so many viewers? One reason is that it features the hugely popular boy band the Jonas Brothers, whom all the girls seem to adore.

But what's the story?

Connect Three is a rock group. One member, Shane Gray (Joe Jonas）needs to get rid of his bad boy rocker image, so he's sent by fellow band members Nate (Nick Jonas）and Jason (Kevin Jonas） to a music camp as a guest instructor（指导）. The idea is the camp will help him clean up his act.

There he meets Mitchie Torres (Demi Lovato）, a teenage girl with an extraordinary voice and a driving ambition（志向）to be a pop singer. However, she can only afford to be at the expensive camp by helping her mom work in the mess hall (食堂）between classes.

When Shane overhears Mitchie singing from behind closed doors, he sets out to find the girl with the beautiful voice.

One group of teenagers was really eager to watch the movie. The kids took their positions on the floor to countdown to show time. One of them, Leah Karrels, 16, even sang the movie's theme（主题歌）, We Rock. She explained that she's seen the trailer (预告片） so many times she knows the words by heart.

The girls cheered when the movie began, and for the next two hours the only time they got up was to run for chocolate ice cream cake from the freezer.

"I'm sure this is going to knock High School Musical off the shelves in stores. This is the next big thing," said Leah.

A．Camp Rock will come out on June, 20

B．The Jonas Brothers is a boy band loved by girls

A．This summer only “Camp Rock” attracted young people very much

C．The main actress is a pop singer in the movie

D．The passage doesn’t tell us the end of the story of the movie

58．It can be inferred from the passage that

B．Leah Karrels could sing the theme of the music

C．The girls loved the movie so much that they even hardly wanted to get up

D．Leah Karrels believes the movie will be sold on the shelves in stores
