Ⅲ.阅读理解
Forget Britney Spears, who is the new pop princess that makes thousands of American teenage girls scream with excitement at her concerts and rush to the store to buy her latest CD?
The answer is Miley Cyrus. After starring in popular TV shows and hit movies, the 16yearold released her fifth album, The Time of Our Lives, on August 28.Its lead single, Party in the U.S.A., is wildly popular.
Cyrus has built her success largely on a role she has played. On TV and the silver screen, Miley Cyrus is Miley Stewart.She is popular at school during the day and at night, she is a famous pop singer named Hannah Montana.
Her soaring popularity goes to her head. So Stewart's father takes her home from Los Angeles to Tennessee, a southern US state, for a dose of reality(体验生活). The journey kicks_off an adventure filled with fun, laughter and romance.
While there, she has to cope with her city girl's unfamiliarity with country life and gradually learn what family is all about.
“Hannah Montana, at heart, is every Disney princess show you've ever seen,” writes Michael O'Sullivan, a reporter with the Washington Post.“Only with a limo(房车)instead of a pumpkinturnedcoach(南瓜马车), a microphone stand instead of a magic wand(魔法棒)and a prince who wears a cowboy hat.”
But the journey of looking for one's inner self goes beyond the big screen. Actress Miley Cyrus has a celebrity father, Billy Ray Cyrus, a famous country singer.The teenager doesn't want people to think she has taken a shortcut to success.“It's about how I find out who I am. I get to know that you need to be able to take time to realize who you are,” she said.“I don't want to be some celebrity's daughter, just be me.”

D.Thousands of American teenagers rush to the store to buy Miley's latest CD.
32.Why did his father take her to the country?
A.Because she got dizzy with success.
B.Because she wanted to play in the movies.
C.Because she wanted to make adventure.
D.Because her father liked country life.
