高中英语Module4MusicBorninAmerica单元加餐练含解析外研版选修7
单元加餐练Ⅰ.阅读理解Music is an international language. The songs that are sung or played by instruments are beautiful to all people everywhere.Popular music in America is what every student likes.Students carry small radios with earphones and listen tomusic before class, after class, and at lunch. Students withcars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as theydrive on the streets.Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports, the weather, politics, and activities of the American people. Most of the radio broadcast is music.Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or a tape which radio stations use in every state. Once the popular singer is heard throughout 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 national star.There are other kinds of music that are important to 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.Serious music for the concert halls is called classical music. Music for instruments is called orchestra music (管弦乐), such as the symphonies (交响乐) of Beethoven. There is opera (歌剧) for singers. There is ballet (芭蕾舞剧) for dancers like the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai in China.语篇解读：本文主要介绍了不同种类的音乐。

Since I discovered it two years ago, I've used music to get through boring work or to focus creatively. I've found that it can make even the dullest jobs enjoyable and help clear mental blocks to creativity.I first noticed the good effects of music while playing video games. It was a few days before Christmas and I was playing online video games. My parents had just given me a new MP3, so I decided to listen to music through the headphones while I played. After a few minutes I noticed a great change in my style of play. I was playing more naturally. The music relaxed me, and, to a certain extent, distracted me from the game, allowing my subconscious (潜意识的) talent to come through. The music also helped me block out the outside world. With those headphones on I was like a machine, moving from one task to the next without unnecessary thoughts or actions.Music can also have a great effect on mood. If I'm in a bad mood at work, I'll listen to some of Bob Marley's and get down to business. It always takes my mind off what I'm doing and makes me a happier person. The same is true for classic rock. One summer, I did a boring job collecting bottle openers by hand. Without a radio playing classic rock in the background, I would have hated life.Listening to music with relaxing rhythms and a positive message helps you forget your work and have happy thoughts. But the results you see will depend heavily onyour personal tastes. Experiment with the types of music you listen to during certain tasks. By trial and error you'll finally discover your best choice. I'm always looking for new concentration aids, so I'd love to know what type of music works best for me.1．The author first discovered the effects of music ________.A. from his parentsB. by chanceC. at workD. when he was a child答案与解析：B 根据第二段“...I was playing online video games...After a few minutes I noticed a great change in my style of play.”可知，作者是在玩游戏时听音乐偶然发现音乐的巨大作用的。

From her colorful clothes and wigs (假发) to her stage shows, it's not hard to see the similarities, but the 34yearold US singer says that she is different. “She's made her own lane for herself and I respect that, but I have my own lane, too, and we never cross paths — ever！” Minaj told Nightline. Minaj has achieved fame quickly with her rap. On April 21 she appeared in Time's list of the 100 most influential people alongside Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio and UK singer Adele. Minaj is known for her energetic rapping style. She uses metaphors (暗喻) and wordplay so well in her work that The New York Times described her as a great rapper with a gift for funny accents and unexpected turns of phrase. Raised in New York City, the young Minaj wanted to become an actress. But her acting career failed to take off. Dealing with a lack of money, in addition to her parents' fighting, Minaj turned to music as a way to escape — she rapped on the streets and posted her songs on the Internet. She was discovered by Wayne in 2009 and her real fame came from her first album Pink Friday. It topped the US Billboard charts soon after its release in late 2010.
