Explosive sound and energy
ROCK music didn’t exist 60 years ago. 1 Someone didn’t just wake up and invent rock.So, how did it happen? What is rock?Although impossible to strictly define, it’s generally recognized that rock music was born in 1950s America. 2 At this time, early “rockers”were mixing the country music of white America with the rhythm and blues sound loved by the black US citizens.The result was rock‘n’ roll.The record most commonly considered as the beginning of the rock ‘n’ roll period is Bill Haley & The Comets’1954 recording of “Rock Around the Clock”. 3 Elvis’s 1950s recordings established the basic language of rock ‘n’ roll; his explosive stage presence set standards for the music’s visual image, while his voice was powerful and interesting.
4 Despite the different directions and sound of rock bands over the last 50 years, there is something common to all the greats:a charming lead vocalist, a talented guitarist full of energy and creativity, a bassist with cool indifference and a drummer.
For most of its life, rock has been split into different parts, creating new styles every few years-giving birth to a never-ending number of sub-genres. 5 Rock is a generic term, but it’s exciting that it can now mean so many different things.
A.Rock is my favorite and I’ll be a popular singer.
B.Now, it’s one of the world’s most popular genres.But musical styles don’t spring up overnight.
C.Rock had a specific sound and image for only a few of its early years.As time went by, the genre began to place equal emphasis on skills and pushing the boundaries of the music.
D.In fact, in the West, musically speaking, the years 1953~1955 are known as the rock ‘n’ roll years.
E.As a result, “rock”has been used to describe everything from bands playing catchy rhythms to groups based on tuneless, noisy guitars.
F.Rock music will be held in our school if we send an invitation to the band.
G.But it was Elvis Presley, known as “The King of Rock and Roll”, who really popularized the new sound throughout America and the Western world.
In so many ways, cyberspace mirrors the real world. 1 Others buy and sell products. Still others look for friendship, or even love. Unlike the real world, however, your knowledge about a person is limited to words on a computer screen. Identity(身份) and appearance mean very little in cyberspace. 2 So even the shyest person can become a chat-room star. Usually, this “faceless” communication doesn't create problems. Identity doesn't really matter when you're in a chat room discussing politics or hobbies and it makes the Internet a great place for exciting conversation. Where else can so many people come together to chat about their interests?? 3 ? They're looking for serious love relationships. Is cyberspace a good place to find love? That answer depends on whom you ask. Some of these relationships actually succeed. Others fail miserably.
Supporters of online relationships claim that the Internet allows couples to get to know each other. Personal appearance doesn't get in the way. But critics of online relationships arguer that no one can truly know another person in cyberspace. Why?? 4 ? Internet users can carefully make their words fit whatever image they want to give. In a sense, they're not really themselves. All of this may be fine if the relationship stays in cyberspace.? 5 ?With so many unknowns, it's easy to let one's imagination “fill in the blanks”. This leads to disappointment when couples meet in person. So, before looking for love in cyberspace, remember the advice of Internet pioneer Clifford Stoll: “Life in the real world is far richer than anything you'll find on a computer screen.”
A. When we talk with others on the line, we can express ourselves freely.
B. But some Internet users want more than just someone to chat with.
C. People ask for information, play games, and share hobby tips.
D. Generally speaking, online friends and love are worth seeking for.
E. Because the Internet gives users a lot of control over how others view them.
F. Rather, a person's thoughts—or at least the thoughts they type—are what really count.
G. But not knowing a person is a big problem in a love relationship.

Telephone tips
If the phone rings and someone speaks in English, don't be afraid to answer it! The fear of talking on the phone in a second language will disappear if you practice often.Here are a few tips for helping you improve your ability to answer a call in English.
1.________
Listening to someone speaking in a second language over the telephone can be very challenging because you cannot see the person you are trying to hear.However, it may be even more difficult for the person you are talking with to understand you.You may not realize that your pronunciation isn't clear because your teacher and fellow students know and understand you.Pay special attention to your weak areas of your pronunciation when you are on the phone.
2.________
Don't pretend to understand everything you hear over the telephone.Even native speakers ask each other to repeat and confirm information from time to time.This is especially important if you are taking a message for someone else.Learn the appropriate expressions that English speakers use when they don't hear something properly.Don't be afraid to remind the person to slow down more than once.Keep your telephone in an area that is away from other noise distractions such as a radio or television.
3.________.
Ask another student to practice talking on the phone with you.You might choose one night a week and take turns phoning each other at a certain time.Try to talk for at least fifteen minutes.You can talk socially, or role play different scenarios in a business environment.The most important thing about practicing telephone English is that you are not able to see each other's mouths.
4.________.
There are many ways to get free telephone English practice.After business hours, you can call and listen to recorded messages.Write down what you hear the first time, and then call back and check if your notes are accurate.Make sure you have a pen handy so that you can repeat the information and check your comprehension.
5.________.
The way that you speak to your best friend on the phone is very different from the way you should speak to someone in a business setting.Many speakers make the mistake of being too direct on the telephone.It is possible that the person on the other line will think that you are being rude on purpose if you don't use formal language in certain situations.Sometimes just one word such as could or may is necessary in order to sound polite.Take the time to learn how to answer the phone and say goodbye in a polite manner, as well as all the various ways one can start and end a conversation casually.
Listening to someone on the telephone is like listening to a taped recording in class.The only difference is that you have to talk back! Follow the tips above and remember that practice makes perfect!
