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.
The author tends to agree that the Americans _____.
选项
A、are restrained to rap, country and rock and roll
B、are restrained to the same genre of music
C、have developed global musical tastes
D、have developed their local music
答案
C
解析
本题与美国人喜欢的音乐类型有关,第二段末及第三段提及相关内容。第二段第二句提到有许多美国人认为是自己“听遍全世界的音乐”(global musical tastes),即经常会听不同类型的音乐;第三段第一句中的a broad range of music再次表明美国人听音乐的兴趣很广泛,因此本题应选C项,该项复现了原文原词。
