20、its current form, country music is a combination of two separate musical traditions: the styles of the Southeastern states and the music of the Southwest, especially Texas. Both styles influenced and were influenced by the blues and by black rural dance music. The first country artists to be widely

21、known achieved popularity in the late 1920s. The music of these performers was heard throughout the south during the 1920s and 30s on radio programs. By the 1950s, country music had become a significant force in pop music. Regular appearances on the radio show made stars of many performers. The sing

22、er-songwriter Hank Williams wrote four million-seller songs in 1950, seven in 1951, and four more in 1953.

26、rtising can be thought of “as the means of making known in order to buy or sell goods or services”. Advertising aims to increase peoples awareness and arouse interest. It tries to inform and to persuade. The media are all used to spread the message, and the press offers a fairly cheap method. Magazi

27、nes are used to reach special sections of the market. The cinema and commercial radio are useful for local markets. Television, although more expensive, can be very effective. Posters are fairly cheap and more permanent in their power of attraction. Other ways of increasing consumer interest are thr

28、ough exhibitions and trade fairs as well as direct mail advertising. We might ask whether the cost of advertising is paid for by the manufacturer or by the consumer. Since advertising forms part of the cost of production, which has to be covered by the selling price, it is clear that it is the custo

29、mer who pays for advertising. However, if large scale advertising leads to increased demand, production costs are reduced, and the customer pays less. It is difficult to measure exactly the influence of advertising on sales. When the market is growing, advertising helps to increase demand. When the

30、market is shrinking, advertising may prevent a bigger fall in scales than would occur without its support. What is clear is that businesses would not pay large sums for advertising if they were not convinced of its value to them.(1). Advertising is often used to ( ) A. convince customers B. promote

31、production C. rise interest D. push the sales (2). According to the passage, trade fairs (Paragraph 1) may ( ) .

32、stomer B. the producer C. the increased sales D. the decreased costs (4).

What the last sentence of this passage actually tells us is that (

33、 ). A. businessmen usually do not pay more for advertising than they have to B. businessmen know well that advertising could bring them more profits C. advertising couldnt convince people of the value of the goods advertising usually costs D. businessmen large amounts of money 3. Few Americans remai

34、n in one position or one place for a lifetime. We move from town to city to suburb, from high school to college in a different state, from a job in one region to a better job elsewhere, from the home where we raise our children to the home where we plan to live in retirement.

35、orever making new friends, who become part of our new life at that time. For many of us summer is a special time for forming new friendships. Today millions of Americans vacation abroad, and they go not only to see new sights but also with the hope of meeting new people. No one really expects a vaca

36、tion trip to produce a close friend, but the beginning of a friendship is possible The word “ friend ” can be applied to a wide range of relationships to someone one has known for a few weeks in a new place, to a fellow worker, to a childhood playmate, to a man or woman, to a trusted confidant ( 知已
