六、阅读理解
How to sing like a superstar is a question people have been asking for ages. We naturally admire(羡慕) the stars we want to sound like when we're young and just experimenting(尝试) with singing. But as we get older, we find that we have our own voice. ,
In my opinion, you can only be a superstar if you find your own voice. If you want to sound great and attract(吸引) people, just get comfortable with your own voice. Do you think Bob Dylan has a great voice Of course not, but people love his voice and his songs. One of the main reasons is that he's very comfortable with himself and his own voice. So remember this when you're asking yourself how to sing like a superstar.
I hate hearing many singers trying to imitate others! But it still happens all the time and yes, some of them do become famous by trying to sound like others. I just don't feel like I'm listening to real art when I hear these so-called stars trying to imitate someone else with their voice.
Now one thing I like to do is to sing other people's songs in my own voice. Yes, you can practise a great song by an artist you love while you're driving down the road, but practise it in your own voice instead of his or her voice. Turn down the volume a little and hear your own natural voice singing the song and giving it a new flavour(特色) !
That's exciting and you're being true to yourself. We're supposed to be artists and that means expressing ourselves in a unique (独特的)way. So if you're asking how to sing like a superstar, remember to just use your own voice.
( ) 1. What can we infer from the text
A. The writer is a famous singer.
B. Young people are likely to imitate the stars they love.
C. People love songs sung in a unique way.
D. It's not real art to sing other people's songs.
( ) 2. The underlined word "imitate" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to
A. invent B. copy C. help D. like
( )3. What is the author's attitude(态度) towards singers' imitating other singers
A. Against. B. Not sure. C. Hopeful. D. Certain.
