[07:20.48]THE SOUNDS OF THE WORLD
[07:24.34]There is a world of music out there!
[07:29.38]What we hear on the radio or see on TV
[07:35.44]is only a small part of all the wonderful music that is waiting for us.
[07:43.39]Most of us probably like pop music and have our favourite performers,
[07:50.83]stars or bands,but many of us also want to discover new sounds and rhythms.
[07:59.58]Here is a brief look at some of the exciting musical styles from around the world.
[08:07.24]Blues music has a long history.
[08:11.96]The blues is a way for people to show who they are and what is in their heart
[08:19.33]People have been playing the blues for many years,
[08:24.66]but the music has kept many of its characteristics.
[08:29.91]The blues comes from African songs
[08:34.27]that people used to sing when they worked and during festivals.
[08:40.05]The African songs met American music when African slaves were brought to the US.
[08:47.91]The blues has been part of African-American culture since then,
[08:53.97]and it is still an important part of American culture.
[08:59.43]Other musical styles,like jazz and rock music,have all come from blues music.
[09:07.47]Today's American culture contains many different musical styles.
[09:14.03]People still listen to blues and rock,but they also listen to hip-hop and rap.
[09:21.40]Hip-hop and rap have much in common with blues and rock,
[09:26.96]but they also have their own characteristics.
[09:31.53]Hip-hop music often combines parts of other styles
[09:36.99]to create music that will help people hear new things in old music.
[09:43.24]Perhaps the most impor tant characteristic of rap music
[09:48.51]is the way the artists sing.
[09:52.35]In rap music,
[09:55.41]the singer or "rapper" will speak or"rap" the words along with the beat.
[10:03.35]Another important style in today's world of music is Latin music.
[10:10.22]Latin music--music that uses taditional styles from Latin America
[10:17.17]has spread all over the world.
[10:21.24]In the US,where there are many Spanish-speaking people,
[10:26.99]Latin music is a big part of the culture.
[10:31.82]It has always been popular in Spanish-speaking countries
[10:37.26]and today stars like Santana and Ricky Martin are known throughout the world.
[10:44.70]There are of course many other interesting styles of music.
[10:50.06]There is a wide variety of new music to be discovered in every corner of the world,
[10:57.79]so the next time you look for a tape or a CD,
[11:03.43]don't just look for Chinese or American music
[11:08.79]open your ears to the sounds of the world!
[11:13.75]INTEGRATING SKILLS
[11:21.01]Reading and writing
[11:24.46]POP VERSUS ROCK
[11:28.22]Rock and pop music are becoming more and more similar,
[11:33.47]but there are still some important differences.
[11:38.15]Most pop singers make music their career.
[11:42.90]They use music to become rich and famous,
[11:47.45]and they sing songs that will be liked by everybody.
[11:52.20]Rock singers,on the other hand,make music their life.
[11:58.16]They play music to satisfy their inner desire.
[12:03.12]They do not think how much money they can make from a song;
