24、Rock and roll music developed in the United States in the early nineteen-fifties. It was based on the music called rhythm and blues that was performed by African American musicians.
Early rock and roll singers developed their own kinds of music. Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, the Beach Boys, and Bob Dylan were the most popular rock and roll musicians in the early 1960’s. All were American. Then, in 1964, a new rock and roll group from England invaded America: the Beatles.
Some people say the Beatles’ music shook America like an earthquake. The Beatles changed rock and roll forever. Their early songs were influenced by American rock and roll musicians, including Chuck Berry. But the Beatles looked different and sounded different from any musical group before them.
The Beatles released their first album in the United States in 1964, when all of the top five records in America were by the Beatles. In 1967, they released an album called “Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.” It was one of the first “concept” albums. That is, all the songs were linked by a common story or idea.
The popularity of the Beatles led the way for more rock and roll bands from England to become popular in America. The Rolling Stones was the most important of these bands. The Rolling Stones is one of the few groups from the 1960’s that is still performing and recording today. In 1965, the group recorded one of its most famous songs, “Satisfaction”.
The musical instrument most linked to rock and roll is the guitar. Experts say Jimi Hendrix was one of the most influential guitar players in rock and roll during the late 1960’s. His “Purple Haze” was liked by many people.
By the 1970’s, rock and roll music became known as rock music. It expanded into many new forms. For example, there was country rock, hard rock, acid rock, and heavy metal rock. Punk rock, jazz rock, and glitter rock.
In the middle 1970’s, experts say rock music regained some of the energy of early rock and roll. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band became popular with their album “Born to Run”. Springsteen’s music was like the lively rock and roll music of the early nineteen-sixties. Many of his songs were about social issues. He sang about the effects of unemployment and the war in Vietnam.
【1】The main topic of this passage is _______.
A.the history of American music

【3】Whose songs were mainly about social problems like unemployment and war?

C.Jimi Hendrix’s. D.Springsteen’s.
【4】From the passage, we can know that _______.
A.one of the Rolling Stones’ albums was called “concept”
B.rock and roll music had many different forms at the beginning
C.rock and roll music probably came from African American music
D.the Beatles and the Rolling Stones became popular at the same time
25、What comes to mind when you think of kung fu? If your mind is filled with images of Shaolin Temple(寺庙), Bruce Lee, or Kung Fu Panda, you wouldn't be wrong. But for Laurence J. Brahm, an American documentary filmmaker, the first thing that springs to mind is the concept of non-violence(非暴力).
As Brahm explained, if you break down the character “wu”, it consists of two characters: one is “ge”, meaning dagger-axe(戈); the other is “zhi”, meaning to stop. So, the meaning of martial arts(武术) in Chinese is not the art of fighting, a concept that many people take for granted. On the contrary, he said, kung fu is the art of stopping fighting.
Brahm’s relationship with kung fu dates back to the 1970s when he was a karate student in Hawaii. “My master always told me that if you want to fully understand karate, you have to go to Shaolin in China. That’s where the origin is,” Brahm said. In 1981, he managed to visit the Shaolin Temple, situated at the foot of the Songshan Mountain in Central China, for the very first time. He left the mountain, a little disappointed at not finding the martial-arts spirit he expected. But his passion for kung fu and his desire to find out more were stronger than ever before.
Over the years he trained in many different styles, such as tai chi, Wing Chun, Jeet Kune Do to understand all of them. “Martial arts can help us connect our body, connect our neural system, connect our blood flow, and also help connect us into our environment to increase our awareness. Martial arts is moving meditation,” Brahm said, his eyes bright and intense.
But to him, kung fu’s charm and values are far more than that. “Kung fu, in my eves, is a mirror of Chinese culture.” Brahm said “The traditional values of kung fu, actually, are in the minds of all Chinese people.”
【1】What does Paragraph 2 really want to tell us?
A.The character “ge” means “to stop”.
B.Kung fu is the “art of non-violence”.
C.The character “wu” consists of two characters.
D.Martial arts in Chinese means the “art of fighting”.
【2】How did Brahm manage to get the idea of kung fu’s values?
A.He visited the Shaolin Temple in 1981.
B.He trained in many different styles over the years.
C.His master told him about it when he was in Hawaii.
D.He joined his knowledge and his experience together.
【3】According to the passage, which word can best describe Brahm?
A.Strong-minded
B.Active
C.Confident
D.Friendly
【4】The underlined word “meditation” in the passage means ________.
A.the thing you can see in the mirror
B.the action of communicating with other people
C.the practice of keeping calm and training one’s mind
D.the plan of what you are going to do
【5】The best tile for the passage should be ________.
A.How to Be a Kung Fu Master
B.Learning Kung Fu in China
C.The Search for Heart of Kung
D.Shaolin Temple and Kung Fu
26、 More and more people believe that technologies are great for learning. Today, such teaching tools(工具) as iPads are used in a lot of courses(学科), including language, history and science.
Many teachers are supporters of using iPads in language learning. They say that students now have much more time for discussion in the classroom. The teachers also say that iPads allow students to learn at their own pace. Some students might listen to a conversation only once and understand it, so they can save time for doing other things. Other students, however, might need to listen to the same conversation again and again to understand it.
The students who are using the new tool in some courses are also happy. They believe that using iPads is a more enjoyable way to learn, such as listening to stories and watching movies. The class has become much more interesting and creative.
There are other advantages for students. By using iPads, they can concentrate on the material and learn more. Teaching notes are stored(分类) in their iPads and are easy to find. Some students spend more time studying now.
Many adults complain that technologies such as iPads are bad for students. They worry that students might use iPads to download teaching notes and use them to cheat during exams. Some believe that iPads may separate(分隔) students from each other.
However, technologies are already a part of most students’ day-to-day lives. As for cheating, teachers can ask students to hand in their iPads when they take exams. Education needs to make changes with the times as technology is playing an important part. We should look forward to a wonderful future when iPads and other technologies can add a lot to the classroom.
【1】In the second paragraph, the underlined phrase “at their own pace” probably means ________.
A.according to their own B.without their teachers’ help
C.about whatever they like D.in their parents’ hope

A.New Technology Changes Learning B.No Teachers for Learning
