阅读理解 Wearing a big hat and playing a guitar, a country music singer is using his rising and falling voice to tell the audience about his love, hope and loss. Few people could avoid getting caught up in his feelings.This is the appeal（魅力）of country music, which speaks to the basic emotions of human life. Throughout the 20th century, it has grown into one of the most original and lasting American musical forms. Country music's roots are in the songs of the American South, brought over by early immigrants(移民) from England. Those songs expressed the hardships of rural life and deep religious beliefs. In the 1920s, country music came into being as its first recordings were made. Early stars like Jimmy Rodger, known as The Father of Country Music, and the Carter Family established its strong traditions － good song-writing, singing and playing.Much of this music was written for and brought to the American public through the cowboy films of the 1930s and 1940s. It was widely popular then and many singers turned up on stage wearing Western fringe and cowboy hats. In the 1950s, the country music recording industry was set up in Nashville and moved away from its rough roots. But singers like John Denver, with his hit track Take Me Home, Country Roads, insisted on the originality and emotions of real country music.Younger artists in the 1990s turned to older country styles and mixed t3vhem with elements of rock 'n' roll. Steve Earle, with his song The Devil's Right Hand, is typical of this so-called another country music.Country music continues to speak to Americans of all ages and backgrounds. And it gives the nation an identity（独特性）.Unlike pop music, country music was American, and only American.

DBABB解析1.大意归纳题。根据短文第一段可知:乡村音乐歌手戴着一顶大帽子,弹着吉他,用他那抑扬顿挫的歌声为听众歌唱着他的爱情、希望和失落。由此可知“在田间劳动时对唱”不是其演唱风格。2.细节理解题。根据短文第二段第一句可知:乡村音乐的根源是早期英格兰移民带来的南美歌曲，不是由英格兰移民创造的（A项错误）；由第三段 “Early stars like Jimmy Rodger, known as The Father of Country Music…,可知C项错误；D项从最后一段第一句可以排除。3.词义猜测题。短文第一段谈到乡村音乐歌手的演唱风格, 第二段第一句紧接着指出:这正是乡村音乐的魅力。由此可以推出getting caught up in所在的句子的意思为：没有人不会被他的情绪所产生兴趣或打动。故
