The Garbage-Men plays at local events around Sarasota. Typically, the teens will set up on the street and perform popular songs, including classic Beatles tunes and crowd favorite “Wipe Out” by The Surfaris. In between sets, they talk about recycling and give advice on how to help the environment. While they perform, Jack’s little brother Trent, 11, gives out flyers (宣传单) about recycling and helps sell the band’s CDs and other musical products.
The band donates (捐赠) the money from sales to Heifer International. The organization gives farm animals, seeds and farm training to people in poor countries to help end poverty (贫穷) and hunger. “It’s a good charity (慈善), ” Jack says, “By donating one animal, you help the whole community.”
The band tries to play a show every week. They’ve also played on a Tampa, Florida radio station and America’s Got Talent. The teens hope to take their shows on the road by touring in other states. “Music is a really good way to get a good message across to people,” Jack says.

1 Countries like France, Brazil and even Japan have their own hip-hop culture. But where did this strange speaking-singing style come from Many centuries ago, in West Africa, traditional storytellers played musical instruments while they were telling stories. When this tradition traveled from West Africa to the USA, it developed into different musical styles. For example, blues and jazz. 2 And in the 1970s, there were many poor areas in New York. There wasn’t any money for music lessons in schools, so kids made their own music. Teenagers Afrika and DJ here played their records outside in the streets. Everybody joined in. MCs had rapping(说唱) competitions. Every week, there were talented new dancers, new DJs and new MCs. Hip-hop culture was born.
3 It was 1980. I was at a party in New York. There was a young DJ at the party. He was playing records. While he was putting a record on, a kid picked up a microphone(话筒) and began rapping. Some other kids were break-dancing to the music. It was loud and boring, and I hated it. I preferred jazz.
4 Today’s successful American artists like Missy and her friend Tim heard it on the radio when they were growing up.
The last time I heard hip-hop, I was in West Africa. 5 I was going to interview a traditional storyteller when I met a young hip-hop artist. He told me there are hundreds of rap groups in Africa today. We live on a hip-hop planet.
A. I remember the first time I heard hip-hop.
B. You can find hip-hop everywhere you go.
C. I was writing a book about African Americans.
D. Many Americans gave music lessons to poor children.
E. These styles all started in poor African-American areas.
F. During the 1980s, hip-hop became popular all over the USA.
G. Some people don’t like hip-hop because of its spoken words.
【答案】1. B 2. E 3. A 4. F 5. C
【解析】本文讲述的是嘻哈文化的历史、作者的嘻哈音乐经历等等。

2. 上文讲“当‘说唱’方式的传统从西非传到美国时,发展成了不同有音乐款式,比如说布鲁斯和爵士乐”,下文讲“而且在20世纪70年代,纽约有许多贫穷的地区”,可推测这里讲述的是嘻哈文化传播的途径及方式,结合选项可知用“These styles all started in poor African-American areas.”表示“这些艺术形式都起源于非洲与美国人的贫困地区”。故选E。
3. 下文讲“那是在1980年,我在纽约的一个晚会上”,可推出这里讲述第一次嘻哈经历,结合选项可知用“I remember the first time heard hip-hop.”表示“我还记得我第一次听到嘻哈的事”。故选A。
4. 下文讲“像Missy和她的朋友Tim等今天成功的美国艺术家在成长过程中都在电台听过嘻哈”,可推出这里讲述的是嘻哈的流行度,结合选项可知用“During the 1980s,hip-hop became popular all over the USA.”表示“在20世纪80年代,嘻哈在全美国流行”。故选F。
5. 上文讲“我最后一次听嘻哈音乐时,我在西非”,下文讲“我要去采访一会传统的讲故事的人”,可推出此处表述自己正在做的某事。结合选项可知用“I was writing a book about African Americans.”表示“我正在写一本有关非裔美国人的书”。故选C。

1 Countries like France, Brazil and even Japan have their own hip-hop culture. But where did this strange speaking-singing style come from Many centuries ago, in West Africa, traditional storytellers played musical instruments while they were telling stories. When this tradition traveled from West Africa to the USA, it developed into different musical styles. For example, blues and jazz. 2 And in the 1970s, there were many poor areas in New York. There wasn’t any money for music lessons in schools, so kids made their own music. Teenagers Afrika and DJ here played their records outside in the streets. Everybody joined in. MCs had rapping(说唱) competitions. Every week, there were talented new dancers, new DJs and new MCs. Hip-hop culture was born.
3 It was 1980. I was at a party in New York. There was a young DJ at the party. He was playing records. While he was putting a record on, a kid picked up a microphone(话筒) and began rapping. Some other kids were break-dancing to the music. It was loud and boring, and I hated it. I preferred jazz.
4 Today’s successful American artists like Missy and her friend Tim heard it on the radio when they were growing up.
The last time I heard hip-hop, I was in West Africa. 5 I was going to interview a traditional storyteller when I met a young hip-hop artist. He told me there are hundreds of rap groups in Africa today. We live on a hip-hop planet.
A. I remember the first time I heard hip-hop.
B. You can find hip-hop everywhere you go.
C. I was writing a book about African Americans.
D. Many Americans gave music lessons to poor children.
E. These styles all started in poor African-American areas.
F. During the 1980s, hip-hop became popular all over the USA.
G. Some people don’t like hip-hop because of its spoken words.
