阅读下面短文，从各题A、B、C、D中选出能回答问题的最佳答案。
American country music is also known as western country music. It has a very long history. It comes from the folk songs of immigrants (移民) from Britain.
Country music uses simple music and words to express everyday feelings such as loneliness, love, and sadness. That is to say, country music describes life. It talks about friends and enemies, trucks and roads, farms and crops. People in many parts of the world like country music, because everyone can understand what the music is about.
Western country music became popular first among cowboys (牛仔) in the American western countryside. Cowboys had to take care of cows day and night. When they were alone with the cows, they often sang beautiful and peaceful songs to calm the animals and to overcome their own fear. They were not well-educated and so they sang about their daily life in very simple words. They played guitars, violins, and other instruments. In the south of America, many people added instruments from their homes, like bottles and spoons. When cowboys visited their friends and families on holidays like Thanksgiving, they usually sang and played western country music.
In recent years, many musicians have made western country music a little different from the one in the past. These changes make the songs sound even better. Today singers such as Carth Brooks, Reba McEmtire, Emmylou Harris, Lyle Lovett, Eddie Rabbitt, LeAnn Rimes, Randy Travis and a group called Alabama are singing and playing in different styles. They have brought western country music more and more fans from all over the world.

六、阅读表达（共10小题，满分20分）
阅读下面两篇短文，根据要求完成下面各小题。
A篇
86.43 percent of Chinese college students enjoy bullet-screen comments (弹幕评论) when watching videos, as they like the interaction (互动) with others. 75.13 percent of them believe that these comments can bring them happiness.
China Youth Daily has done a survey on “Generation Z bullet-screen comment culture”. 11,976 college students across the country took part in it. Generation Z often refers to people who were born between 1996-2010.
The survey results showed that 61.34 percent of the students often choose to open the function (功能) of bullet-screen comments when watching videos. However, 38.66 percent choose not to; the main reason is that these comments may cover the pictures and make the experience bad.
Huang Xiaobei is one of the college students. She first saw bullet-screen comments when she was watching a movie called Tiny Times. “I couldn’t close the comments, so I had to watch them,” Huang said. However, after this experience, Huang Xiaobei has changed from “hating the comments, being bored of them” to “thinking it to be very interesting.”
According to the survey, 67.27 percent of the students regard bullet-screen comments as a way to express their views; 63.05 percent of them believe that the comments serve as a good supplement (补充) to the video, and 53.19 percent of them believe that bullet-screen comments help them find like-minded people all over the world.
So far, bullet-screen comments have become a way of interactive communication widely accepted by people and progressed from a simple tool to a special culture.

Eyes always on us
Video cameras are everywhere: schools, theatres and stores. But in recent years, they have entered our homes. Many parents set up cameras at home to watch their children’s online classes and homework. Are cameras really helpful What do students think about it
Li Ming Earlier last year, I liked to lie in bed and watch videos instead of studying. This affected my studies and made my grades worse. So my parents set up a camera to keep an eye on me. It worked. With the camera watching, I had to do my homework first and make plans for studying at home. When I was alone at home, the camera made me feel safe because I knew that my parents were watching on the other side. My grades improved after a year.
Zhang Hua When I was in Grade 8, my parents set up a camera in my room. I really didn’t like it because I felt like there were always eyes watching me. I felt so uncomfortable that I couldn’t sleep well at night. Knowing there was a camera around, when my friends came to my home, they would speak quietly and carefully. We couldn’t have pillow fights. I was sad. So I asked my parents to take the camera away. They agreed it as long as I promised to behave well. I feel happy and free now.
