Part I Getting ready

B.

A: Are you ready for the trip to the museum in "The Big Apple"? I can hardly wait.

B: "The Big Apple"? What are you talking about?

A: "The Big Apple" is the nickname for New York City. You are going to New York with us, aren't you?

B: Yes, I'm going. I'm especially looking forward to seeing the Museum of Modern Art. There's a special show of 20th century American painters there. But, tell me, where did the nickname "The Big Apple" come from?

A: The jazz musicians of the 1920's are responsible for the name. When they played a concert in a city, they called that city an apple. Of course New York was the biggest city in the country and best place for a jazz concert. So the musicians called it "The Big Apple".

B: Amazing! New York is such a fascinating place and it even has an interesting nickname, one that it's had for more than 50 years.

C.

Most scholars believe that The Black Crook in 1866 marked the beginning of the musical comedy, integrating music, dance and comedy, with an emphasis on beautiful women and spectacular scenery. But it was during World War One and after, that the musical developed as a uniquely American idiom. Song-and-dance man George M. Cohan exploited Americans’ sense of patriotism, moving away from European influences. In the 1920s, songwriters who included Jerome Kern, George and Ira Gershwin, Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, brought the musical to maturity with their meticulous crafting of music and lyrics to create the American popular song.

The modern musical was born in 1943 with Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma, which revolutionized the way dance, music and dialogue was used to develop the plot and characters. Other songwriters of the 1940s, 50s and 60s, including Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, Harold Arlen and Leonard Bernstein, capitalized on that winning formula to write so many hit musicals, that that era is now referred to as “Broadway’s golden age.” Since then, American musicals have been translated and produced on stages all over the world. The music has become a mainstay among vocalists and jazz musicians, making clear the expression that the music of Broadway is truly “America’s classic music.”

Part II Times Square

A.

"Times Square is New York." Those are the words of the head of the Times Square Alliance, a coalition of area businesses. The millions of visitors to Times Square each year would probably agree. The area has one of the most recognizable names in the world. But, Times Square is not really a square. It is the name for the area around where Broadway crosses Forty-Second Street in Manhattan. The Times Square area stretches more than ten blocks north to south. The borders to the east and west are uneven. Some people call the shape of the area a bow tie. Times Square gets its name from the New York Times newspaper. In 1904, the newspaper began to build its headquarters in what was then called Long Acre Square. The city's underground train system built a stop under the Times Tower. The city renamed the area Times Square. On December 21st, 1904, the newsp …… 此处隐藏：11584字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
