课时跟踪检测(四) [对应学生用书P138] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A What do you think of 80s pop music? Do the names George Michael，Madonna and Michael Jackson sound familiar? Well，these are just some of the names that were well­known in the music scene of the 80s and early 90s.The 80s pop music scene was an important step to the popularity (普及) of present­day music．A new wave in the music scene was introduced，which made such music styles as punk rock，rap music and the MTV popular.Although it was an end to the old 60s and 70s styles，it was also the beginning of something big.The popularity of music videos meant that artists now replaced their guitar­based music with visual displays.A new wave of artists came on the scene and the entire industry developed quickly. The most famous 80s pop music video is Michael Jackson's Thriller.Introduced in 1982，few people can forget the video not only because of its never­before­seen images，but also because of the popularity it received．Think too of how 80s pop music changed the lives of people who grew up in the 80s.Ask a young man today to tell you the names of the “New Kids on the Block” and he will start talking about the neighbor kids who just moved in.These are not the answers you might have heard in the 80s.Though today's young men do not recognize how cool 80s pop music was，most people will always remember it for what it was and these are happy memories they will always love. Some of the 80s pop music legends (传奇人物) include Madonna，U2，AeroSmith and of course the King of Pop Michael Jackson.Let's not forget Prince，Tina Turner，Phil Collins and Motown's Lionel Ritchie.Some of these musicians played music that has stood the test of time.Undoubtedly，the 80s pop music scene will live on for many more years to come.
