.阅读理解
(2016·河北冀州中学期中)
Louis Armstrong had two famous nicknames (绰号). Some people called him Bagamo. They said his mouth looked like a large bag. Musicians often called him Pops, as a sign of respect for
his influence (影响) on the world of music.
Born in 1901 in New Orleans, he grew up poor, but lived among great musicians. Jazz was invented in the city a few years before his birth. Armstrong often said, “Jazz and I grew up together.”
Armstrong showed a great talent (天赋) for music when he was taught to play the cornet at a boy's home. In his late teens, Armstrong began to live the life of a musician. He played in parades, clubs, and on the steamboats that travelled on the Missisippi River. At that time, New Orleans was famous for the new music of jazz and was home to many great musicians. Armstrong learned from the older musicians and soon became respected as their equal.
In 1922 he went to Chicago. There, the tale of Louis Armstrong began. From then until the end of his life, Armstrong was celebrated and loved wherever he went. Armstrong had no equal when it came to playing the American popular song.
His cornet playing had a deep humanity and warmth that caused many listeners to say, “Listening to Pops just makes you feel good all over.” He was the father of the jazz style (风格) and also one of the bestknown and most admired people in the world. His death, on July 6,1971, was headline news around the world.

2．The third paragraph is developed ________.
A．by space
B．by examples
C．by time
D．by comparison
答案：C 文章结构题。根据本段中提到的“...when he was taught to play the cornet at a boy's home”，“In his late teens”，“At that time”“soon”等时间状语可知本段是按照“时间”的先后顺序来写的。
3．Which statement about Armstrong is TRUE?
A．His tale began in New Orleans.
B．He was born before jazz was invented.
C．His music was popular with his listeners
D．He learned popular music at a boy's home.
答案：C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中提到的听众对他的评价可推测他的音乐非常受人欢迎。
4．Which would be the best title of the text?
A．The Invention of the Jazz Music
B．The Father of the Jazz Style
C．The Making of a Musician
D．The Spread of Popular Music
答案：B 主旨大意题。本文的写作对象是“Louis Armstrong”这个人物，侧重的是他的音乐才华，而他又是爵士乐之父，所以此项最能概括文章大意。
