On radio stations across the world,a Beatles' song is being played every second of every day. The group broke up in 1970,but their music is still popular today. In fact,1966 was the group's most successful year,as the band released(发行)three new double albums,which sold over 20 million copies. Not bad for a band that split up in 1970!The original group was made up of John Lennon,Paul McCartney,George Harrison and Pete Best,who began playing together in 1959.Three years later,in May 1962,the band signed a contract with the Parlophone Record Company. Before this,they were rejected(拒绝)by four record companies!The Beatles' first single,“Love Me Do”,was released in October 1962.Two months before this,Ringo Starr replaced Pete Best as the drummer. The band's catchy tunes and simple love lyrics made them popular immediately. In 1963,the band became the first to have three No.1 singles and two No.1 albums in a row.By the end of 1963,the Beatles had been the most popular group in Europe. They sold millions of records,and their fans copied their hairstyles and clothes. Their records were not available(可得到的)in America until December 1963,when their fifth single was released there. Within a month it was a US No.1.Their American record company quickly released their first four singles,and the Beatles set another record—the first group ever to hold the top five places in the American record chart at the same time.During the next two years Europe and America went crazy for the Beatles. The group played hundreds of sell-out concerts all over the world. In August 1965,they set another record by playing to the largest ever concert audience—55,600 people. When they played their last public performance a year later,they had recorded a further eight No.1 singles in the US. From 1966 until 1970,the Beatles released six more albums and all of them went to No.1 in the charts. In 1970,the band splitup.Sadly,John Lennon,was shot dead outside his apartment building in New York in December 1980.The remaining three Beatles occasionally(偶尔)released new records. Nothing they do,however,can compare with the extraordinary work of the Beatles.1.How often is a Beatles' song played on radio stations across the world?A.Every second of every day.B.One second of every day.C.Every other second.D.A second a day.2.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.The original group is made up of 4 people.B.The four people John Lennon,Paul McCartney,George Harrison and Pete Best began playing together in 1959.C.The band signed a contract with the Parlophone Record Company in 1962.D.They have signed contracts with 4 record companies before with Parlophone Record Company.3.What made the Beatles popular immediately?A.Their first single “Love Me Do”.B.The changing of Pete Best to Ringo Starr as the drummer.C.The band's catchy tunes and simple love lyrics.D.The singles and albums.4.When did the Beatles play their last public performance?A.1965. B.1966. C.1967. D.1958.参考答案一、1.C 句意:过于重视那个消息是不明智的。
