It tells real-life stories and sounds the way people really talk. As life becomes more complicated (复杂的), it is good to hear music about common people. Country music, sometimes called country-western, comes from two kinds of music. One is the traditional music of the people in the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern United States. The other is traditional cowboy music from the west. The singers usually play the guitars, and in the 1920s they started using electric guitars. At first, city people said country music was low class. It was popular mostly in the South. But during World War II, thousands of Southerners went to the Northeast and Midwest to work in factories. They took music with them. Soldiers from the rest of the country went to army camps (军营) in the South. They learned country music. Slowly it became popular all over the country. Today country music is also popular everywhere in the United States and Canada in small towns and in New York City, among black and white, and among educated and uneducated people. About 1,200 radio stations broadcast (播出) country music twenty-four hours a day. English stars sing it in British English, and people in other countries sing it in their own languages. The music that started with cowboys and poor Southerners is now popular all over the world. 38. It can be learned from the passage that country music comes from _. A. the Southeast and Midwest B. factories and army camps in the SouthC. the Appalachian Mountains and the West D. real-life stories in small towns 39.

Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. City people didnt like country music at first.B. Country music is sung by stars all in English.C.

Now comes the terrifying news that cats look up to their owners as role models and copy their behaviour.Next time you reach for your fridge, think twice. If your cat is watching, she will probably overeat as well.In a new study from the University of Messina, it turns out that indoor cats who live closely to their owners “mirror” the lives of their caregivers. They sleep at the same time, eat at the same time, and can even become more or less social depending on the behaviour of their owners.“Cats are clever animals with a long memory,” Jane Brunt, director of the Catalyst Council, told Discovery News. “They watch and learn from us, noting the patterns of our actions, knowing where their food is kept and what time to expect to be fed, how to open the cupboard door that's been improperly closed, and where their feeding and toileting areas are.” Because cats copy our habits, if you spend a lot of time raiding(搜刮)the fridge, your cat will return to its food bowl for that midnight snack, too. According to the study, this explains why “human and cat overweight rates often seem to match” There's no word if drinking green tea and making sure you go to yoga will benefit (使受益) your cat, but based on the study, it sounds like sticking to a healthy eating and sleeping habit is best for both of you.There's a lot we can learn from our cats in return. “When they sit softly breathing , eyes halfclosed, the sense of peace and calm that comes over us is like a private less on in inner meditation(冥想),”Brunt said. They're probably pretty good at remaining calm.So, according to science, though we think that cats are not close to us all these years, it turns out they are in fact learning from us and looking up to us. Scary, huh?42. According to the passage, which of the following is Wrong?A. Cats can copy humans' behaviours.B. Cats are smart and have a long memory.C. Green tea and yoga can benefit cats.D. Humans can learn from cats in some way. 43. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
