五.聽短文回答問題
今天我們要聽的文章談到兩種美國流行歌曲,一種是起源于非洲宗教樂曲和民謠, 由美國黑人音樂家發(fā)揚(yáng)光大的爵士音樂, 一種是以紐約戲劇中心 "百老匯"為大本營的美國歌舞劇.
現(xiàn)在請(qǐng)你注意聽. 并且注意我們剛才學(xué)過的詞匯在文章里的用法.
When people talk about American popular music, they don't just mean country music or rock music. There are two other types of popular music with national and international appeal that are basically American. One is Jazz. The other is a musical form associated with New York City theaters. Jazz originated from African religious and folk music. The themes and melodies of jazz music have historical origins. They came from songs sung by black Americans in church or at work. There have been different kinds of jazz music, the blues, ragtime, swing boogie-woogie and others. In playing jazz music, the performers blend rhythms and melodies with their skills of improvisation. Modern jazz music has developed into a complex musical style enjoyed more by musicians and older jazz lovers than by the general public. American theater has developed another American musical style. It is associated with a street in New York City, Broadway. Broadway musicals are dramatic productions in which the story is told partly by dialogue and partly through songs. The lyrics of these songs give background information about the story and express the feelings of the characters in the story. Many Broadway musicals have been made into movies that have been shown all over the world. "Oklahoma", "Sound of Music", "My Fair Lady", and "West Side Story" are some good examples. Songs from these musicals and others have translations in various languages that are sung around the world. Many of them have become popular with people who have not even seen the musicals for which they were written.
現(xiàn)在請(qǐng)你回答三個(gè)問題. 每回答一個(gè)問題就請(qǐng)你聽老師給你念正確答案.
第一個(gè)問題是:
M: What are two types of American popular music with international appeal?
F: They are Jazz and Broadway musicals.
第二個(gè)問題是:
M: What are the origins of American Jazz?
F: The origins of American Jazz are the religious and folk music of American blacks.
第三個(gè)問題是:
M: How is the story told in American musicals?
F: It is told partly by dialogue and partly through songs.
