  If you asked me what the newest fad(時(shí)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.”O(jiān)ther 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.

閱讀下列材料,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

  “Christmas won't be Christmas without any presents, ” grumbled Jo, lying on the rug.

  “It's so dreadful to be poor! ” sighed Meg, looking down at her old dress.

  “I don't think it's fair for some girls to have plenty of pretty things, and other girls nothing at all, ” added little Amy, with an injured sniff.

  “We've got father and mother and each other, ” said Beth, contentedly.

  The four young faces on which the firelight shone brightened at the cheerful words, but darkened again as Jo said sadly:“We haven't got father, and shall not have him for a long time.” She didn't say “perhaps never”, but each silently added it, thinking of father far away, where the fighting was.

  Nobody spoke for a minute; then Meg said in an altered tone:“You know the reason mother proposed not having any presents this Christmas was because it is going to be a hard winter for everyone; and she thinks we ought not to spend money for pleasure when our men are suffering so in the army.We can't do much, but we can make our little sacrifices, and ought to do it gladly.But I am afraid I don't”; and Meg shook her head, and she thought regretfully of all the pretty things she wanted.

  “But I don't think the little we should spend would do any good.We've each got a dollar, and the army wouldn't be much helped by our giving that.I agree not to expect anything from mother or you, but I do want to buy UNDINE AND SINTRAM for myself; I've wanted it so long, ” said Jo, who was a bookworm.

  “I planned to spend mine on new music, ” said Beth, with a little sigh.

  “I shall get a nice box of Faber's drawing pencils; I really need them, ” said Amy, decidedly.

  “Mother didn't say anything about our money, and she won't wish us to give up everything.Let's each buy what we want, and have a little fun; I'm sure we work hard enough to earn it, ” cried Jo, examining the heels of her shoes in a gentlemanly manner.

  “I know I do-teaching those tiresome children nearly all day when I am longing to enjoy myself at home, ” began Meg, in the complaining tone again.

  “You don't have half such a hard time as I do, ” said Jo.“How would you like to be shut up for hours with a nervous, fussy old lady, who is never satisfied, and worries you till you're ready to fly out of the window or cry? ”

  “It's naughty to fret; but I do think washing dishes and keeping things tidy is the worst work in the world.It makes me cross; nd my hands get so stiff, I can't practice well at all”; and Beth looked at her rough hands with a sigh that anyone could hear.

  “I don't believe any of you suffer as I do.” cried Amy, “for you don't have to go to school with impertinent girls, who plague you if you don't know your lessons, and laugh at your dresses, and label your father if he isn't rich.”

  “If you mean libel, I'd say so, and not talk about labels, as if papa was a pickle-bottle, ” advised Jo, laughing.

  “I know what I mean, and you needn't be satirical about it.It's proper to use good words, and improve your vocabulary, ” returned Amy, with dignity.

  “Don't peck at one another, children.Don't you wish we had the money papa lost when we were little, Jo? Dear me! How happy and good we'd be, if we had no worries! ” said Meg, who could remember better times.

  “You once said you thought we were a deal happier than the King children, for they were fighting and fretting all the time, in spite of their money.”

  “So I did.I think we are; for, though we do have to work, we make fun for ourselves, and are a pretty jolly set, as Jo would say.” Jo immediately sat up, put her hands in her pockets, and began to whistle.

  “Don't, Jo; it's so boyish! ”

  “That's why I do it.”

  “I detest rude, unladylike girls! ”

  “I hate affected, niminy-piminy chits! ”

  “Birds in their little nests agree” sang Beth, the peacemaker, with such a funny face that both sharp voices softened to a laugh, and the `pecking' ended for that time.

(1)

According to the passage, who is the most pessimistic and who the most optimistic?

[  ]

A.

Jo; Amy

B.

Meg; Beth

C.

Meg; Amy

D.

Amy; Beth

1.John Harvey:

In fact if you go out to a restaurant, it’s very difficult to find the “British” cooking, but you can find almost anything else:French, Italian, Chinese, Indian and so on.London is full of foreign restaurants.I love trying “new dishes.” I think you can understand a lot about another culture from its food.

2.Jo Baker:

I like foreign food, but not all.I particularly do not like Indian food, although I quite enjoy a mild curry I make myself.I like most European dishes, but Spanish food is quite low down on my list.However, I think you have to travel a long way to beat good old English cooking.What can be nicer than the aroma of a piece of beef roasted in the oven, surrounded by crisp roast potatoes and served with piping hot Yorkshire puddings, vegetables and gravy? From my point of view, I think foreign food is all right when you are abroad.You see, that’s just part of the enjoyment of travelling to another country.Foreign food is also fine for an odd night out to restaurant, but for every day please give me good old English food.

3.Gabby Macadam:

On the whole I enjoy foreign food, but having said that I can think of dozens of foreign dishes which I simply can’t stand.You see, they have fish in some way or other and I never eat fish in any form.I have found that many foreign dishes are served with a kind of sauce.I think it is the accompanying sauce that hides all sorts of problems.I am not so sure that I would be as fond of them as I am if they were served without the sauce.

4.Len Dangerfield:

When we English people travel abroad, we always make a great fuss about studying the menu but always end up with steak.You see, when I’m abroad I always miss our home cooking.I mean, I’m used to English food.Sometimes I do go to restaurant to taste some exotic dishes, but most of the time I still prefer to have English food.You know, it’s always difficult to get used to food in other countries.

5.Peter Hawke:

I like foreign food.I particularly like Indian food.Well, I’m married to an Indian girl.She is a good cook.I’m so lucky to have her cook for me every day.I think Indian food as well as other foreign foods is generally tastier and spicier than English food.Traditional English dishes, like roast beef and Yorkshire pudding and fish and chips, are quite well-known abroad.But I must say as a nation we are not particularly good at catering.s far as I’m concerned, I think we should learn to cook more interesting dishes and make our food tastier and more varied.

A.Cooking varies from country to country even though the basic gradients may be very much the same.

B.I can’t stand those foreign dishes which contain fish in some way or other, and I’m not so sure that I’m fond of many foreign dishes which are served with a kind sauce.
