What do you think of 80s pop music? Do the names George Michael, Madonna and Michael Jackson sound familiar? Well, these are just some of the names that were well-known in the music scene of the 80s and early 90s.The 80s pop music scene was an important step to the popularity (普及) of present-day music.A new wave in the music scene was introduced, which made such music styles as punk rock, rap music and the MTV popular.Although it was an end to the old 60s and 70s styles, it was also the beginning of something big.The popularity of music videos meant that artists now replaced their guitar-based music with visual displays.A new wave of artists came on the scene and the entire industry developed quickly.
The most famous 80s pop music video is Michael Jackson's Thriller.Introduced in 1982, few people can forget the video not only because of its never-before-seen images, but also because of the popularity it received.Think too of how 80s pop music changed the lives of people who grew up in the 80s.Ask a young man today to tell you the names of the “New Kids on the Block” and he will start talking about the neighbor kids who just moved in.These are not the answers you might have heard in the 80s.Though today's young men do not recognize how cool 80s pop music was, most people will always remember it for what it was and these are happy memories they will always love.
Some of the 80s pop music legends (传奇人物) include Madonna, U2, AeroSmith and of course the King of Pop Michael Jackson.Let's not forget Prince, Tina Turner, Phil Collins and Motown's Lionel Ritchie.Some of these musicians played music that has stood the test of time.Undoubtedly, the 80s pop music scene will live on for many more years to come.

?Ⅳ.阅读理解
Jenny Lind was born in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1820, the daughter of a teacher of languages.She is said to have been able to repeat a song that she had heard only once at the age of three.At ten years of age she sang children's parts on the Stockholm stage.After turning 12 years of age, her upper notes (高音) lost their sweetness, and for four years she did not do much singing.Her love for music continued and these years were spent on the study of instrumental music and composition.
At the end of this period her voice got its power and purity (纯净) again and for a year and a half she was the star of the Stockholm Opera.Next, she gave a series of concerts and went to Paris for further study, but the French teacher did not appreciate her powers and Jenny returned to her native city.
When she was twenty-three years old, Jenny went to Dresden and when Queen Victoria visited that city the following year, she sang at the festivals held in the Queen's honor.This opened the way to astonishing success in other German cities.In 1847 she went to London and was warmly received.There she sang for the first time in concert.
Jenny Lind traveled to Paris to study with Manuel Garcia, a famous Spanish vocal (声乐)coach, who finally agreed to train her.Her husband, Otto Goldschmidt, was a famous German pianist who trained with Mendelssohn; they married in Boston while on tour in the US.
After her marriage, she appeared on the stage from time to time, usually at concerts given for charities.She was deeply interested in charities and we can easily add to her title (头衔) of singer that of philanthropist.Her later years were spent in London where she died in 1887.Her life and songs are a sweet memory.
