Music is different from songs. Songs express feelings with lyrics, but music with tones (音调). Unlike songs, music tones in themselves have no specific meanings. Different people may get different things from the same musical performance. Though some music works are difficult to understand, people need music in their daily life because it brings fun to them. Different people like different music: some love classical music, and others take pleasure in pop music. Most young people like pop music.

Pop music began in the USA and became popular around the world during the 1950s and 60s. The best-known early kind of pop music was “rock and roll”. Pop music has taken the place of native music in many parts of the world. It has caused the number of people for “jazz” music to become much smaller than in the 1950s and earlier and it has now begun to become the most popular. Much pop music is without artistic value (价值), but the works of some pop singers such as the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the groups like Pink Floyd and Crosby are excellent. And there is still great interest in it today. Pop music concerts and festivals are held all over the world.

Ⅳ. 任务型阅读（10分）

It seems that today more and more girls like to dress like boys. Maybe they are following the example of Li Yuchun, the winner of the Super Girls contest in 2005.

Kitty Deng is a 13-year-old from Shanxi. She has a boyish style. “I am like a boy and I am comfortable being this way,” says Kitty. “I think everybody should have a style according to his or her personality.”

Liu Bing, from Liaoning, is also a tomboy (假小子). “I don’t wear skirts because I don’t look pretty in skirts,” says the 13-year-old kid. “I get my hair cut short because long hair makes me feel very hot in summer,” she says. In fact, Liu has another reason. The style makes it easier to play together with boys. Why not play with girls? “Because some girls are just mean (小气的), ” she answers.

Wei Yan, 14, lives in Shanghai. She dresses like a boy, too. In her class, not many girls dress like boys. But many girls think that being a boy is easier. “Boys have more chances than we do,” says Wei Yan. “For example, at our school only boys can be flag escorts (护旗手). Why can’t girls have a try?”
