Popular music in America is what every student likes. Students carry small radios with earphones
and listen to music before class, after class and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers and
play the music loudly as they drive in the street.
Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news
about sports, the weather and the life of American people. Most of the radio programs are music.
Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape and radio stations use
them in many places. Once the popular singer is heard all over the country, young people will buy
his or her tape. Some of the money from these tapes comes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes,
all the young people want to meet him or her. Now the singer has become a national star. There are
other kinds of music that are important to Americans. One is called folk music. It tells stories about
the common (普通的) life of Americans. Another is called western or country music. It is about
country life and the love between a country boy and his girl friend. They are very popular among
