Charlie Parker is one of America’s greatest jazz musicians. He influenced the direction of jazz music during his short lifetime. He developed a new style of jazz called bebop. Performers of bebop left the traditional musical melody and played a song freely, with the music and rhythm that was felt at the time. So, the same song could be played in a different way each time it was performed. Charlie Parker was born in 1920 and had his first saxophone in 1933. Charlie developed as a musician by playing with different groups in public eating and drinking places called nightclubs. Meanwhile, Charlie developed serious problems that were to affect him the rest of his life. He became dependent on alcohol and the illegal drug, heroin. In 1939, Charlie went to New York City, where he began to develop his own style of jazz. Charlie Parker’s name first appeared in the press reports about music in 1940. During the next five years, he joined different bands. He apparently did not feel at ease playing with a big band, so he returned to New York City in 1947. The following four years are considered his most successful. He formed his own small bands and played with other groups. He visited Europe three times, where he recorded about half of the albums he ever made. His last public appearance was on March 5th, 1955, at Birdland. It was not a success. He died seven days later of a heart attack.
22. What is the passage mainly about?
23. Which of the following is true about Charlie’s music style?
24. Which of the following is considered one of Charlie’s most successful years?
25. Where did he record about half of the albums he ever made?
选项
A、The development of jazz music.
B、The musician named Charlie Parker.
C、The new style of jazz called bebop.
D、The death of Charlie Parker.
答案
B
解析
开头两句是主题句,点明文章的中心人物是美国音乐家Charlie Parker。通篇都在讲他的生平和对美国爵士乐的影响,故主题概括为B。短文第1句往往揭示主旨,帮助解题,要格外注意。万一漏听第1句,则全文多次重复的主题词也可以帮助揭示主题。文中不断地提到Charlie,句子的主语多是he,his…,也可推知本文是人物传记。
