     American country music, also known as country westem music, has a very long history. It comes from
the folk songs of immigrants (移民) from the Great Britain.
     Country music uses simple music and words to express everyday feelings such as loneliness, love, and
sadness. That is to say, country music describes life. It talks about friends and enemies, trucks and roads,
farms and crops. People in many parts of the world like country music because everyone can understand
what the music is about.
     It is believed that country westem music became popular first among cowboys in the American west
countryside. Cowboys had to take care of cows day and night. When they were alone with the cows, they
often sang beautiful and peaceful songs to calm the animals and to get over their own fear. They were not
well-educated and thus they sang about their daily life in very, simple words. They played guitars, violins,
and other instruments.
     In the American South, many people added instruments from their homes, like bottles and spoons. When
cowboys visited their friends and families on holidays like Thanksgiving, they usually sang and played country
western music.
     In recent years, many musicians have made country westem music a little different from the one in the
past. These changes make the songs sound even better. Today singers such as Carth Brooks, Reba McEntire,
Emmylou Harris, Lyle Lovett, Eddie Rabbitt, LeAnn Rimes, Randy Travis, and a group called Alabama are
singing and playing in different styles. They have brought country western music more and more fans from
all over the world.

历史文化类阅读

考点名称：历史文化类阅读

  • 历史文化类阅读：
    本类题型常用的方式是夹叙夹议。叙述的目的是为了议，所以要把握其议才是主要方面。
    阅读这类文章，先弄清其引入的话题，再弄清里面人物对其不同的看法，然后理解作者本身对话题的观点看法或思考。

  • 初中英语阅读理解的解题技巧：
    一、要注意养成良好的阅读心理，阅读时要去掉杂念，心绪要安定，精神要专一，要形成一种惬意的顺向心理。
    切不可一遇到几个生词难句，就心烦意乱，失去自控能力。心理学家告诉我们，任何恐慌，过分紧张的情绪都会形成一种消极因素妨碍大脑的正常思维功能。
    因此，遇到困难一定要从容不迫，心无旁骛。这样才能对所读的文章印象清晰，理解深刻。

    二、要提高视读的速度，考阅读理解，从另一个方面来说，考的是考试速度。因此做阅读理解时，要注意培养自己快速阅读的习惯。
    切不可在个别难懂的词句上磨蹭，只要全篇理解了，个别难懂的词句可以根据上下文和构词法去猜测，去推断。

    三、对文章的评价分析，一定要坚持“词不离句，句不离篇”，要理解文章作者的原意，而不能按你自己的意愿去想当然。
    切记：一想当然，就会出错。
