21、American country music is also known as (被视为) country Western music. It has a very long history. It comes from the folk songs of immigrants(移民) from Britain.
Country music uses simple music and words to express everyday feelings such as loneliness, love, and sadness. That is to say, country music describes life. It talks about friends and enemies, trucks and roads, farms and crops…People in many parts of the world like country music, because everyone can understand what the music is about.
Country Western music became popular first among cowboys(牛仔) in the American West countryside. Cowboys had to take care of cows day and night. When they were alone with the cows, they often sang beautiful and peaceful songs to calm__the__animals and to overcome their own fear. They were not welleducated(接受良好教育的), so they sang about their daily life in very simple words. They played the guitar, the violin, and other instruments. In the south of America, many people added instruments from their homes, like bottles and spoons. When cowboys visited their friends and families on holidays like Thanksgiving, they usually sang and played country Western music.
In recent years, many musicians have made country Western music a little different from that in the past.These changes make the songs sound even better.Today singers such as Garth Brooks, Reba McEntire, Emmylou Harris, Lyle Lovett,Eddie Rabbitt, LeAnn Rimes, Randy Travis and a group called Alabama are singing and playing in different styles.They have brought country Western music more and more fans from all over the world.

23、Rabbit Shiny and tortoise(乌龟) Smily were neighbours. One day they were reading a story about their great grandfathers: Shiny's and Smily's great grandfathers decided to have a race. While Shiny's great grandfather went to sleep during the race, Smily's great grandfather won the race by slowly walking towards the finish line.
Smily said, "If your great grandfather didn't go to sleep, my great granddad might never win. So his win was not a real win."
The next day there was a notice in the jungle (丛林) newspaper. It said that there would be a race and the winner would win many prizes. The race started from the bear's house. From there, the runners had to cross the river. But most of the animals could not both run fast and swim fast. So they didn't know what to do. Shiny and Smily made a plan.
Shiny ran, while smily was sitting on his back. He and other animals, like the deer, reached the river side at the same time. But they saw the swift water and stood there because they were worried.

Shiny got down from Smily's back and Smily climbed on Shiny's back again. Shiny ran fast. They reached the finish line first.
