In the 1960s, it took pop and rock groups one or two days to record other their songs. Nowadays, it can take months and
months. Many rock groups begin by recording only one instrument, for example, the voice. Then they record other instruments
– electric piano, synthesiser, guitars, drums and so on.
Next, they might use a computer to add special effects. Finally, they ‘mix’ all the instruments until they get the sound that they
want. This means that a CD or cassette will always sound very different from a live concert.
Music engineers have developed a new eomputer programme that will change the future of music. A computer can analyse a
singer's voice. Then if you give the computer the lyrics and music of a song, the computer can 'sing' it in that voice. This
means that a singer only needs to record one song and the computer can then sing other songs in the singer's own voice.
Singers can sing new songs many years after they have died.
Most of us listen to music for pleasure, but for the record companies, music is a product, the same as soap powder. When a
record company finds a new group (or 'band'), they first try to develop the band's 'profile'. They will try to create an 'image' for
the band that they think will attract young people. Instead of allowing the band’s full artistic freedom, they will often tell the
band what they should wear, what they should say and how they should sing and play.
In recent year, many rock groups have started their own record companies because they say that the big companies are too
commercial.
37. Today, to record songs, it takes ____.
A. longer than it used to do B. shorter than it used to do
C. only one or two days D. the same amount of time as the 1960s
38. Today’s record procedure results in ____.
A. different sounds of recorded songs and Iivc-performed songs
B. the mixture between CDs and live concert
C. some special effects on songs
D. differences in voices and instruments played
39. Which of the following is NOT true about the new computer programme?
A. It is predicted to change the music future.
B. It can imitate singers' voices.
C. It can sing only one recorded song of the singer.
D. The singer does not necessarily present to really sing.
127. The word "it" in the passage refers to ____.
A. music B. a lyric C. a singer D. a song
128. Record companies don't always ____.
A. suggest the outfits of the band B. tell the band what to say
C. give the band freedom to do things D. decide the songs the band will play
129. The word "that” in the passage refers to ____.
A. soap powder B. an image C. the band D. a eompany

A. famous B. popular C. useful D. money-oriented

VI. Read the text about Adele and answer the questions that follow.
Adele has been one of the world's most well-known singers and songwriters in recent years. Born in North London in 1988,
Adele started singing at a young age and she was mostly influenced by the Spice Girls. At the age of 16, Adele composed her
first hit song, "Hometown Glory".
When she was a student at the British School for Performing Arts and Technology, she recorded three songs for a class project.
All these songs later were posted on MySpace.com and became very popular. As a result, she was offered a record deal from
XL Recordings after her graduation. Her first album "19" debuted at number one on the British charts in 2008.
In March 2008, she did a short tour in America and soon her international career began. In 2011, her second album, "21", came
out. The music on this album was different from the soul music of "19". It was influenced by American country music, which
Adele was listening to during her tour.
In 2012, she wrote and recorded "Skyfall" for the James Bond film of the same name. The song sold more than two million
copies worldwide and for it Adele won the Academy Award for Best Original Song.
Since 2012, Adele has won many more awards. She has many fans including other famous singers because they admire her
unique voice and her passion for music.
