The defini

41、tion provided by the International Folk Music Council states that folk music is the music of ordinary people, Line which is passed on from person to person by being listened to rather than learned from (5) the printed page. Other factors that help shape a folk song include: continuity (many performa

42、nces over a number of years); variation (changes in words and melodies either through artistic interpretation or failure of memory); and selection (the acceptance of a song by the community in which it evolves). When songs have been subjected to these processes their origin is usually impossible (10

43、) to trace. For instance, if a farm laborer were to make up a song and sing it to a-couple of friends who like it and memorize it, possibly when the friends come to sing it themselves one of them might forget some of the words and make up new ones to fill the gap, while“ the other, perhaps more arti

44、stic, might add a few decorative touches to tile tune and improve a couple of lines of text. if this happened a few times there would be many (15) different versions, the songs original composer would be forgotten, and the song would become common property. This constant reshaping and re-creation is

45、 tile essence of folk music. Consequently, modem popular songs and other published music, even though widely sung by people who are not professional musicians, are not considered folk music. The music and words have been set by a printed or recorded source, limiting scope for (20) further artistic c

46、reation. These songs origins cannot be disguised and therefore they belong primarily to the composer and not to a community. The ideal situation for the creation of folk music is an isolated rural community. In such a setting folk songs and dances have a special purpose at every stage in a persons l

47、ife, from childhood to death. Epic tales of heroic deeds, seasonal songs relating to (25) calendar events, and occupational songs are also likely to be sung. 66 What does the passage mainly discuss? （ A） Themes commonly found in folk music （ B） Elements that define folk music （ C） Influences of folk

49、 be out-of-date. （ D） There is disagreement about its meaning. 68 The word “it“ in line 8 refers to （ A） community （ B） song （ C） acceptance （ D） memory 69 Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a characteristic of the typical folk song? （ A） It is constantly changing over time. （ B） it is passed on to other people by being performed. （ C） it contains complex musical structures. （ D） It appeals to many people. 70 T
