Throughout the years, music has been a common thread that unites generations and had provided social commentary, individual expression, and a soundtrack for life. Music has evolved and changed as time has moved forward, and become, in some cases more of an art, and in other cases, less than one.
Today music has nearly universal appeal—though there are more styles and types of music than ever before, there are also wider gaps in ever between groups who listen to certain types of music. This said, however there are still millions of Americans who consider themselves to have "global musical tastes" meaning that they listen to numerous genres of music on a regular basis instead of focusing their time and attention on only rap, country, or rock and roll.
In Utah, as in most other parts of the country, there are many people who listen to a broad range of music: from Oldies to Emo and from Blues to Hip Hop. These varying tastes in music are reflected by the concerts in Utah during any given year.
Utah’s concerts range from the biggest names in Hip Hop and Country music to Rock and Roll acts that you might have thought had been dissolved in the 80’s. There seems to be just as much excitement for a Cyndi Lauper or Pretenders reunion tour as for a tour from Snoop Dogg or The Foo Fighters. The sheer dynamism of Utah concert goers—in age and musical taste makes Utah a "must stop" for most any musical act.
Utah’s concert scene consists of many small venues such as bars and private clubs that host touring acts year round, as well as a few large venues, both indoor and outdoor that host only the larger acts and are only open during certain times of the year—as dictated by sports team schedules and weather.
The varying degrees of concert venues in Utah makes for an additional plus for great musical acts to stop in Utah. There are obviously some acts, while very well received in bars and small venues, that just would not be able to fill a 20,000 seat amphitheater. Thus, the various small venues are perfect for lesser known or up-and-coming rock and country acts that are not quite able to fill the bigger venues.
All things considered, Utah has a lot going for it in terms of creating a solid environment for musical acts as well as fans of music from a myriad of genres. As the state continues to grow and become a more mainstream culture, concerts in Utah will continue to be growing attractions.
Which of the following could be the most appropriate title of the text?
选项
A、Americans’ Global Musical Taste.
B、Diverse Tastes for Music in Utah.
C、Various Concert Venues in Utah.
D、Mainstream Culture of America.
答案
B
解析
本文开头两段先提及美国人对音乐的喜好,从第四段开始详细描述犹他州吸引了各种不同的音乐会,最后一段总结音乐会成为犹他州主流文化的原因,由此看来,全文的主题应该是“犹他州的各种音乐会”,B项与此内容最相近。为本题答案。本文只有开头两段简略地介绍了美国人对音乐的品味,而这两段都是为了引出犹他州的情况,可见,文章的主题并不是关于整个美国的,由此就可以将选项中含有“美国”字眼的A项和D项排除;C项“犹他州的各种演出场地”是第五段、第六段的主要内容,不能当作全文的主题。
