　　If you asked me what the newest fad(时尚)is for teens today, I would have to say the iPod．This handheld electronic device can store and play thousands of songs．Everyone has one．After all, to most teens, music is more than a way to express themselves．It’s their“escape”．

　　On popular music radio stations, almost every song is about love, and many love songs are about break-ups(分手)．There are two ways people react to break-ups．They may be glad to break up with people that don’t appreciate them：“Get out!Leave, right now, it’s the end of you and me．I can’t wait for you to be gone,”goes a popular song by a singer named Jo Jo．Or they may beg their ex-boy/girlfriends to come back：“Baby, when you left, I lost a part of me…Please come back, we belong together,”goes an equally popular song by Mariah Carey, a huge star．

　　But not all songs are about break-ups; some songs about true love are also popular．DJ Sammy’s“Baby you’re all that I want/when you’re lying here in my arms/I’m finding it hard to believe/we’re in heaven．”(Will they be singing“Get Out, Leave”or“We Belong Together”tomorrow?)

　　Other songs are about growing up．“Did I grow up according to plan?And do you think I’m wasting my time doing things I want to do?But it hurts when you disapprove all along,”goes a song by Simple Plan, addressed to a dad who tried to plan out his son’s life．

　　However, the best songs are the ones about important issues in the world．A couple of years ago, the longest-reigning number one song of the year, a favourite of mine as well, was a song promoting(提倡)non-violence in a tumultuous world．But another song tops my list：“I don’t want another pretty face…I want you and your beautiful soul．”Other songs make me want to scream at the radio, especially when they top the ratings charts：“Don’t you wish your girlfriend was hot like me?”However, all songs, whether about falling in love or out of it, truly reflect the mood of a generation．

(1)

　　When Johnny Cash sings, people listen．His big, deep voice rumbles out of radios and jukeboxes across North America．His records sell by the million．Country-music fans everywhere know his big hits．They love songs like “Hey Porter”, “Ring of Fire”, and “Folsom Prison Blue”．

　　Johnny Cash sings about a hundred concerts a year．People like what they hear and what they see, too．Rugged and big-shouldered, the singer stands six-two without his black boots on．He-s a two-hundred-pound package of muscle and talent．And that scar(疤痕)on his cheek is a bullet(子弹)hole, of course!

　　In the minds of most people, Johnny Cash is“Mr．Tough(violent)Guy”．He’s an ex-drug addict(上瘾者)who was once put in prison．His grandmother was an Indian．To keep from starving, he once had to live on wild rabbits killed from forty feet away with a knife．Some people say he even killed a man．

　　In fact, most of the Johnny Cash story is just that－a story．True, years ago he had a “drug habit” for a short time．He “popped” pills．But he never used heroin or other “hard” drugs．Sometimes he’d go wild and get locked up for a few hours．But he never served a prison sentence．There’s no Indian blood in his veins．He’s been a killer only in song．As for the “bullet hole”, it’s an old scar left by a doctor who opened a cyst(囊肿)．

　　People who know Johnny Cash well say he’s a “gentle guy”, a “generous guy”－anything but a “tough guy”．How did the stories get started? Some of them, like the story about the “Indian grandmother”, made up by Johnny Cash long ago to add excitement to his career．Others, like the “bullet hole”, simply got started．Now there’s little the singer can do to change people’s minds．“They just want to believe it, ” he says．

　　The country of Chile is struggling to recover from one of the most powerful earthquakes in history．The quake struck the South American nation early Saturday morning．It registered 8．8 on the Richter scale．Ex-perts say the earthquake in Chile is among the five most powerful earthquakes ever recorded．

　　The epicenter of the earthquake is about 70 miles north of the city of Concepci6n．The area has been rocked by dozens of aftershocks since the big quake hit on Saturday morning．

　　On Sunday, Chilean President Michelle Bachelet updated reports on the toll the earthquake has taken．“It’s an enormous catastrophe,” she said．Countless buildings and roadways have been destroyed or badly damaged．Rescuers continued to work around the clock to find survivors who may be trapped under the rub-ble of fallen buildings．Government officials estimate more than 2 million people have lost their homes．

　　Bachelet assured people that food and medical aid were on the way．Ten thousand members of the Chil-ean military have been dispatched to help in the relief and recovery efforts．Many of the country’s major gro-cery stores have started giving away basic food and supplies to people in the affected areas．Secretary-Gener-al of the United Nations spoke to President Bachelet by telephone．He assured her that the United Nations“stands ready to assist the Chilean government’s rescue and recovery efforts ”．

　　The earthquake in Chile comes less than two months after the 7．0 magnitude earthquake that Haiti suf-fered in January．Although the earthquake in Chile was more powerful than the one in Haiti，the damage is unlikely to be as severe．Earthquakes are more common in Chile，and many buildings and homes there are constructed to withstand tremors better．Also，the area of Chile most affected by this earthquake is not asheavily populated as Port-au-Prince, where the epicenter of the Haitian quake was located．Furthermore, Chile is one of South America’s richest, best-organized countries．Its government has more supplies and people available to effectively respond to national emergencies．

　　The energy released by the quake caused shock waves to roll across the Pacific Ocean in the form of tsu-namis(海啸)that have the potential to do great damage to coastal areas．Some of these waves struck the Chilean coast，causing major damage to seaside towns．Coastal communities in Russia，Japan，and the Unit-ed States were concerned，too，but there were no reports of severe damage from the waves that eventually reached the countries’shores．

(1)

Who is leading the earthquake relief efforts in Chile?

[　　]

A．

The Chilean government and military．

B．

Geologists and other scientists．

C．

The United Nations peacekeeping forces．

D．

Secretary-General of the United Nations．

(2)

The damage from Chile’s earthquake is not expected to be as severe as the damage from Haiti’s quake．Which could not be the reason for it?

[　　]

A．

Chile is one of the richest，best-organized countries in South America．

B．

Chile has constructed many buildings for the people．

C．

Chile knows how to respond to a national emergency．

D．

The epicenter area of the Chile earthquake is less heavily populated than that of the Haiti’s quake．

(3)

One result of the earthquake in Chile was ________．

[　　]

A．

severe storms in Russia and Japan

B．

massive waves in the pacific Ocean

C．

a lack of food supplies in coastal communities

D．

a social confusion across the globe

(4)

What’s the best title for this news report?

[　　]

A．

Major Earthquake Hits Chile

B．

The Most Powerful Earthquake in History

C．

D．
