He grew many kinds of tomatoes in his garden. The President taught his cook a way for a cream of tomato soup. This beautiful pink soup was served at the President’s party.

Country music is one of the most popular kinds of music in the United States today because it is about simple but strong human feelings and events--love, sadness, good times, and bad times. It tells real-life stories and sounds the way people really talk. As life becomes more complicated(复杂), it is good to hear music about ordinary 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 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 the factories. They took their 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 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.
32. It can be learned from the passage that country music comes from _______.
A. the Northeast and Midwest
B. factories and army camps in the South
C. real-life stories in small towns
D. the Appalachian Mountains and the West
33. Before World War II country music was popular mainly in __________.
A. the South B. the North
C. the Midwest D. the Northeast
34. During World War II many Southerners went to the Northeast and the Mid-west because__________.
A. they wanted to take music with them
B. they wanted to work in the factories there
C. they wanted to make other people like country music
D. they wanted to make country music popular
35. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage
A. Country music is about human feelings and events.
B. Country music is sung by stars all in English.
C. Country music is popular among city people today.
D. City people didn’t like country music at first.
