insisted on a strong work ethic and perfection. Fortunately, both children excelled well in these areas. Recognising
their special talents, Leopold devoted much of his time to their education in music as well as other subjects.

demonstrating outstanding ability on harpsichord and the violin. He would soon go on to play the piano, organ and
viola.

Many countries are now growing palm oil trees to gain energy. The rush to energy derived from plants will lead to
deforestation, push small farmers off the land and lead to serious food shortages and increased poverty unless it is
carefully managed. Rich countries want to see crops grown for fuels to help stabilize the price of oil, open up new
markets. But the United Nations urges governments to beware their impacts. The report, which predicts winners and
losers, will be studied carefully bio-fuel industry which wants to provide 25% of the world‟s energy within 20 years. 17
countries have committed themselves to growing the crops on a large scale. It has been said that 10% of all fuel
must come from bio-fuels by 2020. The crops have the potential to stabilize the price of oil, but forests are being cut
to grow plantations of palm oil trees. These crops will take the best land, which will increase global food prices.
Growing bio-fuel crops can be harmful to farmers who do not own their own land, and to the poor who buy food.
Using bio-fuels results in some reductions in emissions but we cannot fight climate change by large scale
deforestation. Investments need to be planned carefully to avoid generating new environmental and social problems.
Question 27. The passage is about .

C. winners and losers D. deforestation

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, synthesizer, 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 computer programme that will change the future of music. A computer can
analyze 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.
27.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
28. Today‟s record procedure results in_______.
A. different sounds of recorded songs and Iive-performed songs
B. the mixture between CDs and live concert
C. some special effects on songs
D. differences in voices and instruments played
29. 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.
