Have you ever heard of the group Westlife? Maybe you have, but I’m sure many of you don’t know very much about it.
Westlife is an Irish boy band group, which was made up of 6 boys in the beginning and called IOU. The group quickly became popular with young people thanks to their song Swear It Again, which was at the top of the UK charts (排行榜) in April 1999.
Chinese fans got their first chance to see Westlife on March 6th, 2006 in Beijing. Although the four-member group has been singing pop for seven years, the young boys have all since grown up and their songs are still very popular. When they performed in Beijing, Westlife released (發(fā)行) their new album Face to Face in China. Face to Face has been at the top of the British charts for a long time. The album’s most popular song You Raise Me Up mixes traditional Irish music with pop music.
Although hip-hop is quite popular among the young, Westlife has no plans to change. They said, “Hip-hop is for the young, but pop can be enjoyed by moms who are busy cooking meals and raising the kids.
小題1:Westlife is from _________.
A．AmericaB．ChinaC．IrelandD．Germany
小題2:The number of people in the group __________ between 1999 and 2006.
A．went from 6 to 4B．went from 4 to 6C．went from 5 to 4D．didn’t change
小題3:What happened on March 6th, 2006?
A．Chinese fans fell in love with Westlife.
B．Chinese fans were first introduced to Westlife.
C．Chinese fans first heard Westlife’s songs.
D．Chinese fans could see Westlife in Beijing.
小題4: Which of the following is Not true about Westlife’s new album Face to Face?
A．Swear It Again is one of the songs in the album.
B．You Raise Me Up mixes traditional Irish music with pop music.
C．The new album came out in 2006.
D．Face to Face was popular in Britain.
小題5:What style of music does Westlife make?
A．Hip-hop musicB．Pop musicC．Rock musicD．Classical music

小題1:C
小題1:A
小題1:D
小題1:A
小題1:B

本文講的是西城男孩及他們的音樂成就，并且談到了中國的歌迷在2006年看他們在北京舉辦的演唱會的情況。
1.  C 從Westlife is an Irish boy band group可知他們是一個愛爾蘭（Irish）音樂組合，故選C。
2.  A 細節(jié)題。我們可以從which was made up of 6 boys in the beginning知道開始有6個男孩子，從下文2006 in Beijing. Although the four-member group可知變成了4個成員，故選A。
3.  D 此題答案來自第二段，Chinese fans got their first chance to see Westlife on March 6th, 2006 in Beijing可知中國歌迷得到第一個與西城見面的機會，故D正確。
4.  A 此題地考查對西城男孩面對面這張專輯的分析。Swear It Again出現(xiàn)在1999年，而此專輯是在北京2006年才發(fā)行的，故A明顯錯誤。
5.  B 細節(jié)題的考查。從the album’s most popular song You Raise Me Up mixes traditional Irish music with pop music可知西城的音樂以流行樂為主，后面講到hip-hop但他們都不會改變風(fēng)格。而C,D并沒有提到。選B。
