Question

The latest Chinese "god song" (an Internet term to describe pop songs that spread virally (病毒性地) through Internet) is still stirring fierce debate between those who view it as a milestone for Chinese pop music going global and those who regard it as bad for China's im?age.

Last week,Little Apple,written and performed by the Chopsticks Brothers,won the AMA International Song Award andthe duo performed the song at the 2014 American Music Awards in Los Angeles. Another Chinese pop singer,Zhang Jie,won the International Artist Award.

But while fans of these singers are thinking highly of the awards and the perform?ance by the Chopsticks Brothers at the AMA celebration as significant,there are others who are less excited. They have questioned the value of the awards and what effect it will have on Chinese culture's "going abroad", claiming it may leave foreign audiences with a poor impression of Chinese pop music,and even Chinese culture.

The Little Apple phenomenon,both home and abroad,can be more easily un?derstood and judged if we look at it from a business perspective rather than a cultur?al perspective. The professional promoters behind the duo have developed a clear strategy to promote the duo and their work,not just this particular song. Little Apple was originally released to promote the duos film Old Boys：The Way of the Dragon.

From the very beginning a viral marketing strategy was used to promote the song,which immediately went viral on the Internet due to its repetitive rhythm,easy-to-remember lyrics,simple and funny dance and,most importantly,grass roots nature. The video accumulated more than 1 billion hits on China's major video website.

Although the song was generally dismissed by music professionals who criti?cized it as musical "junk food",Little Apple's popularity nationally paved the way for promoting the duo internationally.

Answer 1

本文是篇夾敘夾議文，主要講述了不同的人對中國的神曲"小蘋果"的不同看法。

1. C觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。

opposed反對的;negative消極的;objective 客觀的;critical批判的。結(jié)合全文內(nèi)容可知作者只是客觀地陳述了不同人對《小蘋果》的不同看法。故選C項(xiàng)。

2. B詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第二段第一句"Last week,I^^A/) /^, written and performed by the Chopsticks Brothers,won the AMA International Song Award and the duo performed the song at the--"可知the duo指上文的the Chopsticks Brothers₀

3. A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第一句"…the Chopsticks Brothers,won the AMA International Song Award..."可排除B項(xiàng)；C項(xiàng)all people的說法太絕對；根據(jù)第四段的Apple was originally released to promote the duo's film —”可知，《小蘋果》最初是為了宣傳筷子兄弟的電影才發(fā)行的，排除D項(xiàng)。
