Part III Listening Comprehension长对话1听力原文11.W: Did you hear that Anna needs to stay in bed for 4 weeks?M: Yeah. She injured her spine in a fall and a doctor told her to lie flat on her back for a month so it can mend.Q: What can we learn from the conversation?12.M: A famous Russian ballet is coming to town next week end. But I can’t finda ticket anywhere.W: Don’t be upset. My sister just happened to have one and she can’t go since she has got some sort of conflict in her schedule.Q: What does the woman mean?13.W: Hello, my bathroom drain is blocked and I’m giving a party tonight. Do you think you could come and fix it for me?M: Sorry, ma’am. I’m pretty busy right now. But I can put you on my list.Q: What does the man mean?14.W: We’re taking up a collection to buy a gift for Jemma. She’ll have been with the company 25 years next week.M: Well, count me in. But I’m a bit short on cash now. When do you need it?Q: What is the man going to do?15.W: Tony’s mother has invited me to dinner. Do you think I should tell her in advance that I’m a vegetarian?M: Of course. I think she’d appreciate it. Imaging how you both feel if she fixed the turkey dinner or something.Q: What does the man suggest the woman do?16.M: Just look at this newspaper, nothing but robbery, suicide and murder. Do you still believe people are basically good?W: Of course. But many papers lack interest in reporting something positive like peace, love and generosity.Q: What are the speakers talking about?17.M: I can’t believe so many people want to sign up for the Korea Development Conference.We will have to limit the registration.W: Yeah, otherwise we won’t have room for the more.Q: What are the speakers going to do?18.W: Hi, I’m calling about the ad for the one bedroom apartment.M: Perfect timing! The person who was supposed to rent it just backed town to take a room on campus.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?Conversation OneW: Well, it’s the South Theater Company. They want to know if we’d be interested in sponsoring a tour they want to make to East Asia.M: East Asia? uhh… and how much are they hoping to get from us?W: Well, the letter mentions 20,000 pounds, but I don’t know if they might settle for us.M: Do they say what they would cover? Have they anything specific in mind? W: No, I think they are just asking all the firms in tongue for as much money as they think they’ll give.M: And we are worth 20, 000 pounds, right?W: It seems so.M: Very flattering. But I am not awfully happy with the idea. What we get out of it?W: Oh, good publicity I suppose. So what I suggest is not that we just give them a sum of money, but that we offer to pay for something specific like travel or something, and that in return, we ask for our name to be printed prominently in the program, and that they give us free advertising space in it.M: But the travel bill would be enormous, and we could never manage that. W: I know. But why don’t we offer to pay for the printing of the programs ourselves on condition that on the front cover there's something like This program is presented with the compliments of Norland Electronics, and free advertising of course.M: Good idea. Well, let’s get back to them and ask what the program they want will cost. Then we can see if we are interested or not.Questions 19-21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. What do we learn about the South Theater Company?20. What benefit does the woman say their firm can get by sponsoring the Theater Company?21. What does the woman suggest they do instead of paying the South Theater Company’s travel expenses?Conversation TwoW: Rock stars now face a new hazard --- voice abuse. After last week's announcement that Phil Collins might give up touring because live concerts are ruining his voice, doctors are counseling stars about the dos and don'ts of voice care. Here in the studio today, we have Mr. Paul Phillips, an expert from the High Field Hospital. Paul, what advice would you give to singers facing voice problems?M: If pop singers have got voice problems, they really need to be more selective about where they work. They shouldn't work in smoky atmospheres. They also need to think about resting their voices after a show. Something else they needto be careful about is medicines. Aspirin, for example, singers should avoid aspirin. It thins the blood. And if a singer coughs, this can result in the bruising of the vocal cords.W: And is it true that some singers use drugs before concerts to boost their voices when they have voice problems?M: Yes, this does happen on occasion. They are easily-available on the continent and they are useful if a singer has problems with his vocal cords and has to sing that night. But if they are taken regularly, they cause a thinning of the voice muscle. Most pop singers suffer from three things: lack of training, overuse and abuse of the voice, especially when they are young. They have difficult lives. When they go on tour, they do a vast number of concerts, singing in smoky places.W: So, what would you advise the singers to do?M: Warm you voice up before a show and warm it down after.Questions 22-25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.22. What does last week's announcement say about rock star, Phil Collins?23. What does Paul Philips say about aspirin?24. What does Paul Philips say about young pop singers?25. What are the speakers mainly talking about?Passage 1Would you trust a robot to park your car? The question will confront New Yorkers in February as the city's first robotic parking opens in Chinatown.The technology has been successfully applied overseas, but the only other public robotic garage in the United States has been troublesome, dropping vehicles and trapping cars because of technical problems.Nonetheless, the developers of the Chinatown garage are confident with the technology and are counting on it to squeeze 67 cars in an apartment-building basement that would otherwise fit only 24, accomplished by removing a maneuver space normally required.A human-shaped robot won't be stepping into your car to drive it. Rather, the garage itself does the parking. The driver stops the car on a flat platform and gets out. The platform is lowered into the garage, and it is then transported to a vacant parking space by a computer-controlled device similar to an elevator that also runs sideways.There is no human supervision, but an attendant will be on hand to accept cash and explain the system to newly users. Parking rates will be attracted about $400 monthly or $25 per day, according to Ari Milstein, the director of planning for Automation Parking Systems, which is the U.S. subsidiary of a German company. This company has built automated garages in several countries overseas and in the United States for residents of a Washington, D.C. apartment building.Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What do we learn about the robot parking in the U.S. so far?27. What advantage does robotic parking have according to the developers?28. What does the attendant do in the automated garage?29. What does the company say about the parking rate?Passage 2A recent study shows that meat consumption is one of the main ways that human can damage the environment, second only to the use of motor vehicles. So how can eating meat have a negative effect on the environment? For a start, all animals, such as cows, pigs and sheep, always gas limed methane, which is the second most common green house gas after carbon dioxide. Many environmental experts now believe that methane is more responsible for global warming than carbon dioxide. It is estimated that 25% of all methane that released into the atmosphere coming from farm animals. Another way in which meat production affects the environment is through the use of water and land. 2,500 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound of beef. While 20 gallons of water are need to produce one pound of wheat. One acre of farmlanduse to for raising cows can produce 250 pounds of beef. One acre of farmland use to for crop production can produce 1,500 pounds of tomatoes. Many people now say the benefits of switching to vegetarian diet which excludes meat and fish. Not just for health reasons, but also because it plays a vital role in protecting the environment. However, some nutritionists advise against switching to a totally strict vegetarian diet. They believe such a diet which includes no products from animal sources can be deficient in many of the necessary vitamins and minerals our bodies need. Today many people have come to realize that help the environment and for the human race to survive, more of us will need to become vegetarian.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you've just heard.30. What does the recent study show?31. What do some nutritionists say about the strict vegetarian diet?32. What does the speaker think more people need to do?Passage 3Alcoholism is a serious disease. Nearly nine million Americans alone suffer from the illness. Many scientists disagree about what the differences are between the alcohol addict and social drinker. The difference occurs when someone needs to drink. And this need gets in the way of his health or behavior. Alcohol causes a loss of judgment and alertness. After a long period, alcoholism can deteriorate the liver, the brain and other parts of the body. The illness is dangerous, because it is involved in half of all automobile accidents. Another problem is that the victim often denies being an alcohol addict and won’t get help. Solutions do exist. Many hospitals and centers help patients cope. Without the assistance, the victim can destroy his life. He would detach himself from the routines of life. He may lose his employment, home or loved ones.All the causes of the sickness are not discovered yet. There is no standard for a person with alcoholism. Victims range in age, race, sex and background. Some groups of people are more vulnerable to the illness. People from broken homesand North American Indians are two examples. People from broken homes often lack stable lives. Indians likewise had the traditional life taken from them by white settlers who often encourage them to consume alcohol to prevent them from fighting back. The problem has now been passed on. Alcoholism is clearly present in society today. People have started to get help and information. With proper assistance, victims can put their lives together one day.Question 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q33. What is the problem of the victims about alcoholism according to the speaker?Q34. Why did white settlers introduce alcohol to Indians?Q35. What does the speaker seem to believe about those affected by alcoholism?Part III Listening Comprehension复合式听写题目Self-image is the picture you have of yourself, the sort of person you believe you are. Included in your self-image are the categories in which you place yourself, the roles you play and other similar descriptors you use to identify yourself. If you tell an acquaintance you are a grandfather who recently lost his wife and who does volunteer work on weekends, several elements of your self-image are bought to light — the roles of grandparent, widower and conscientious citizen. But self-image is more than how you picture yourself; it also involves how others see you. Three types of feedback from others are indicative of how they see us: conformation, rejection, and disconfirmation. Conformation occurs when others treat you in a manner consistent with who you believe you are.You believe you have leadership abilities and your boss put you in charge of a new work team. On the other hand, rejection occurs when others treat you in a manner that is inconsistent with yourself definition. Pierre Salinger was appointed senator from California but subsequently lost his first election. He thought he was a good public official, but the voters obviously thoughtotherwise— Their vote was inconsistent with his self-concept. The third type of feedback is disconfirmation, which occurs when others fail to respond to your notion of self by responding neutrally. A student writes what he thinks is an excellent composition, but the teacher writes no encouraging remarks. Rather than relying on how others classify you, consider how you identify yourself. The way in which you identify yourself is the best refection of yourself-image. 2019年6月大学英语六级真题Part III Listening Comprehension (35 minutes)Section ADirections:In this section you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations.

2019年6月大学英语六级考试真题及参考答案(第1套)Part I Writing (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the importance of motivation and methods in learning.You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.【参考范文】As an old saying goes, knowledge can change one’s life. In order to acquire knowledge, we have to study hard. However, it can not be ignored that effective learning needs both motivation and scientific methods.It’s not difficult for us to come up with several possible reasons accounting for this perspective. In the first place, learning is a kind of serious and hard work. Therefore, not everyone is able to keep going without certain internal motivations. Besides, scientific methods play a significant role in improving learning efficiency. Many of us believe that the longer you study, the better grades you will get. But a lot of experiences of our classmates prove that this view is not entirely correct. In details, studying for a long time is exhausting and it is very likely to decrease study efficiency, which is critical to academic performance.From what has been mentioned above, we can easily draw a conclusion that the importance of motivation and methods in learning is self-evident. And it is necessary for us to develop good learning methods.【参考范文译文】俗话说,知识能改变命运。

The photo went viral and the boy became an Internet sensation, attracting reporters to his farm in a remote rural area of Afghanistan."I wear this plastic bag shirt for Messi. I would like to meet him. I love him so much," little Murtaza says.Lionel Messi is a professional footballer who plays for the Spanish team Barcelona and the Argentina national team. Last month, he was awarded a fifth FIFA Ballon d'Or that goes to the world's best male player.Murtaza plays soccer near his house and does not have a proper field, football jersey or sports shoes. But he dreams of becoming a famous player like Messi, his father says."We want to go to Spain so that Murtaza would be able to meet his idol Messi face to face, since he is a huge fan of him. Even when he wakes up he says 'I love Messi,' " Mohammad Arif Ahmadi says.Murtaza's wish may yet be fulfilled. His new celebrity status has prompted Afghan football officials to contact's Messi's charitable organization to see if a meeting can be arranged.Official sport was rarely played under the Taliban Islamist rule, and the football stadium in Afghanistan's capital, Kabul, was used for executions, stonings and mutilations.Although it is now free from the Taliban, Afghanistan is still riddled with violence.part 2Amid a global outpouring of grief and sympathy for France, are reminder the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee,that America is also a target.Armed New York City police officers with the special operation division Strategic Response Group stand guard in Times Square in New York, as security was tightened following the deadly attacks in Paris, Nov. 14, 2015.Armed New York City police officers with the special operation division Strategic Response Group stand guard in Times Square in New York, as security was tightened following the deadly attacks in Paris, Nov. 14, 2015.“We cannot allow ISIS to have this sanctuary in Syria and Iraq from which to plan and direct attacks against us,” Schiff added.White House officials are seeking to reassure the American public.“There is not a specific, credible threat to the homeland at this time, but we are going to be very vigilant,” sai d President Barack Obama’s deputy national security adviser, Ben Rhodes, also on This Week.Of particular concern: the Paris attacks demonstrated that terrorists can plan, coordinate and execute bloody plots with little or no Internet chatter or other communication that may tip off intelligence agencies. If Islamic State caught France by surprise,could it do the same to the United States?“The reality is: even the best intelligence will not stop a determined enemy that adapts to our defenses, and ISIS has adapted,” said Schiff.Refugee dilemmaReports that one of the Paris attackers may have been a Syrian asylum seeker will bring increased scrutiny of the Obama administration’s pledge to accept 10,000 refugees from Syria.For months, Republican presidential contenders have blasted the administration’s campaign against IS as woefully inadequate. Now, they are disputing White House assurances that Syrians granted U.S. asylum will be subjected to thorough screening and vetting.“You have a thousand people come in, and 999 are just poor people fleeing oppression and violence. But one of them is an ISIS fighter. If that is the case, then you have a problem, and there is no way to vet that out,” said Republican Senator Marco Rubio. “You cannot pick up the phone and call Syria.”At Saturday’s debate among Democratic presidential hopefuls, Hillary Clinton pointedly disagreed with Obama’s assertion last week that the Islamic State group has been contained.White House officials say the president was referring to the territory controlled by IS in Iraq and Syria, not the terrorist threat posed by the group.。

(AP Photo/Rich Pedroncelli)As Americans discuss the issue ofincome inequalityin an election year, a new study says rich people will live up to15 years longer than poor ones.A rich 40-year-old man in the United States can expectto live until about 87. A poor 40-year-old man might onlylive until 73.The difference in length of life as it relates to income is part of a new study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.The Health Inequality Project studied about 1.4 billionincome taxrecords from a 15-year period ending in 2019. While people might haveguessedthat wealth allows for a longer life, the study reviewed more data than any similar studiesin the past.Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders is running for the Democratic Party nomination. He often talks of thegapbetween rich and poor in the United States. Rich people have better access health care than poor people, and that can increase their lifespan.Sanders launched his campaign almost a year ago. In his speech, he said, “the issue of wealth and income inequality is the great moral issue of our time, it is the great economic issue of our time and it is the great political issue of our time.”Angus Deaton wrote acolumnabout the study on the medical association’s website. He says a study like the Health Inequality Project is important because it will help people understand whether “tax and distribution policies could be effective tools of public health and potentially extend life expectancy.”The study backed up theassumptionthat wealthy peoplelive longer than poor people. But it also revealed something new.The researchers say it is not only bad to be poor. They say it is worse to be poor in certain parts of the United States than others.Poor people in depressed cities like Detroit, Michigan; Toledo, Ohio; and Gary, Indiana are worse off than poor people in places like San Francisco, California and New York City.Recently, the governor of Michigan declared a state of emergency in the city of Flint. The water supply for its100,000 residents became contaminated with lead.Drinking water contaminated with lead is harmful to people’s health, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (or NAACP) is an organization that fights against discrimination. It says more would have been done “if nearly 40 percent of Flint residents were not living below thepoverty line.”The opposite is also true. The researchers say poorpeople who live near rich people may be healthier becausethey see better examples of how to live. They also may be healthier because wealthier places usually have better public health services.At the same time, poor people will struggle even more in depressed cities.The authors of the study say they are aware of some ofthe problems with their report. For example, the study measures life expectancy starting at age 40. That does notfully consider causes of death that affect younger people and children.They also say there is not a good way to understand someof thecoincidentalbenefits of having a higher income.Deaton writes the wealthiest people in the United States gain an extra 10-15 years to enjoy their “richlyfundedlives.”And there is no way to put a value on 10-15 years of good living.Words in This Storyincome tax– n. a tax paid on the money that a person or business earnsguess– v. to form an opinion or give an answer about something when you do not know much or anything about ittrail– n. a route that someone follows to go somewhere or achieve somethinggap– n. a space between two people or thingsinequality – n. an unfair situation in which some people have more rights or better chances than other peoplecolumn– n. an opinion piece that often appears in a newspaper or magazineassumption– n. something that is believed to be true or probably true but that is not known to be truecoincidence– n. a situation in which events happen at the same time in a way that is not planned or expectedfund- v. to provide money for (something)。

2019年6月大学英语六级考试真题及参考答案(第1套)Part I Writing (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the importance of motivation and methods in learning. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.【参考范文】As an old saying goes, knowledge can change one’s life. In order to acquire knowledge, we have to study hard. However, it can not be ignored that effective learning needs both motivation and scientific methods.It’s not difficult for us to come up with sev eral possible reasons accounting for this perspective. In the first place, learning is a kind of serious and hard work. Therefore, not everyone is able to keep going without certain internal motivations. Besides, scientific methods play a significant role in improving learning efficiency. Many of us believe that the longer you study, the better grades you will get. But a lot of experiences of our classmates prove that this view is not entirely correct. In details, studying for a long time is exhausting and it is very likely to decrease study efficiency, which is critical to academic performance.From what has been mentioned above, we can easily draw a conclusion that the importance of motivation and methods in learning is self-evident. And it is necessary for us to develop good learning methods.【参考范文译文】俗话说,知识能改变命运。

They woke up more frequently or awake approximately20minutes longer per night and have shorter period of uninterrupted sleep. Theseresults how true even taking into account that many of the women in the studywere breast-feeding their babies. Infants, on the other hand, didn’t appear tohave worse sleep whether they slept in the same or different room from theirmothers. The researchers acknowledge that since the families they studied wereall middle classes Israelis. It is possible that the results will be differentindifferent cultures. Lead author TTTT wrote in an email thatthe researchteam also didn’t measure father sleep. So it is possible that patterns couldalso be causing the sleepdisruptions for mums. Right now, to reduce the riskof suddeninfant death in the room, the AmericanAcademy of PDrecommends the mothers not sleep in the same bed with their babies, butsleepin the same room. The Israeli study suggests thatdoingso, may be best for the baby, but may take at all on mum.9What is the long health viewabout the mother sleeping withnew-born babies?10 What do Israeli researchers’ findings show?11What does the American Academy’s PD recommendmothers do? Passage2Passage2The US has already lost more than a third of thenativelanguages that existed before European colonization and the remaining192 are classed by the UNESCO as ranging between unsafe and extinct."We need more funding and more efforttoreturn these languages to everyday use," says Fred Nowosky of theNational museum of the American Indians, "we are makingprogress, but money needs to be spent on revitalizing languages, not justdocumenting them." Some reported languages mainly in California andOklahoma where thousands of Indianswere forced to relocate in the 19th centuryhave fewer than 10native speakers. Part of the issue is that tribalgroupsthemselves don't always believe their languages are endangered until they aredown to the last handful of speakers."But progress is being made throughemerging schools, becauseif you teach children when they are young, it willstay withthem as adults and that is the future." says Fred Nowosky. Suchschools have become a model in Hawaii, but the islanders' native language arestill classed by the UNESCO as critically endangered because only 1000 peoplespeak it. The decline inthe American African languages has historical roots. In themid 19th century, the US government adopted a policyof Americanizing Indian children by removing them from their homes andcultures. Within a few generations, most have forgotten their native tongues.Another challenge to language survival is television. Ithas brought English into homes, and pushed out traditional storytelling andfamily time together, accelerating the extinction of native languages.Questions 12-15 are based on the passage you just heard.12. What can we learn from the report?13. For what purpose does Fred Nowosky appeal from thefunding?14. What is the historical cause of the decline oftheAmerican Indian Languages?15.

Now, a new study began with 1,000 children in New Zealandtracked how low self-control canpredict poor health, money troubles and even acriminal recordin their adult years. Researchers has been studying thegroup of children for decades now. Some of the early observations have to dowith the level of self-control the youngsters displayed parents, teachers, eventhe kids themselves, scored the youngsters on measures like "acting beforethinking" and "persistence in reaching goals." The children ofthe study are now adults in their thirties. Terrie Moffitt of Duke Universityand her research colleague found that kids withself-control issues tended togrow up to become adults with a far more troubling set of issues to deal with."The childrenwho had the lowest self-control when they were age three to10, later on had the most health problems in their thirties," Moffittsaid, "and they had the worst financial situation.They were more likelyto have a criminal record and to be raising a child as a single parent on avery low income.""Even the children who had above-averageself-control as pre-schoolers, could have benefited from more self-controltraining. They could have improved their financial situation and their physicaland mental health situation 30 years later."So,children with minor self-control problemswere likely as adults to have minorhealth problems, and so on.Moffitt said it's still unclear why somechildren havebetter self-control than others, though other researchers havefound that it's mostly a learned behavior, withrelatively little geneticinfluence. But good self-control canrun in families because children with goodself-control aremore likely to grow up to be healthy and prosperous parents."Whereas some of the low-self-control study members are more likely to besingle parents with a very low incomeand the parent is in poor health andlikely to be a heavy substance abuser," said Moffitt. "So that's nota goodatmosphere for a child. So it looks as though self-control is somethingthat in one generation can disadvantage the next generation."But the good news, according to Moffitt, is thatself-controlcan be taught by parents, and through schoolcurricula that have been shown tobe effective. But the goodnews is the Moffitt says that self-controlcan be taught bythe parents and through school curricula that have provedtobe effective. Terry Moffitt’s paper on the link on self-control and adultstatus is later is published proceeding theacademy of sciences.23. What is the new study about?24. What does the study seem to show?25.

His front-runner status has led him to brag that he is unstoppable."I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue (in New York City) and shoot somebody and I would not lose any voters," he said over the weekend while campaigning.One reason for his popularity is Trump's tough stance on illegal immigrants.“With the economy what it is in this country, we can’t afford to give our jobs away to people that are here and not willing to go through the process of coming legally," Trump supporter Donna Nichols said.Despite his braggadocio, Trump acknowledged that a winin Iowa is important. "It's crunch time, folks. I wanna win Iowa, I wanna really win it."Texas Senator Ted Cruz lags behind Trump by more than 10 percent but hopes he can make a difference in Iowa."If we stand as 'We the people,' that we will bring back, we will restore that last, best hope for mankind -- that shining city on a hill that is the United States of America," Cruz told supporters.Matching Clinton's supportOn the Democratic side, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders appears to be gaining support that is matching Clinton's in some places. He enjoys a lot of support among young voterswho are tired of politics as usual."They want this country to move in a new direction; they want to be part of a political revolution," Sanders said.He has criticized the growing income inequality in the United States and the influence of money on politics."He is not funded by big companies. He is funded by private donors. I mean, Hillary Clinton is a Democrat but she is also, like, playing the game. She is funded by all these companies, so I am not for that as much," Sanders supporter student Bailey Baack said.Reports from New York say that city's former mayor, Michael Bloomberg, may join the presidential race if Sanders becomes a threat to Clinton.The billionaire, listed as one of the world's richest people, said he would fund his own campaign and run as an independent.。

Ivory Coast’s All-female Band Breaks Social Barriers
ABIDJAN, IVORY COAST—
For nine young female musicians in Ivory Coast, breaking into the male-dominated music industry wasn’t easy. But
their group, Bella Mondo, is now a household name in Abidjan and is booking shows abroad.
The nine women of Bella Mondo win over yet another audience. The group is one of just a handful of all-women ensembles in Ivory Coast.
It all started in 2007. Prisca Allou was a music student.
A music producer came to see her. He said he wanted to make
an all-female orchestra to fulfill a promise to his late mother.
Allou got on board and was charged with recruiting other members.
“It wasn’t easy at first. Some parents were against it. You know, in Africa, the place of women is often seen as
being either in an office, or at home. That was the
s tereotypical image,” said Prisca Allou, the band's bass guitar player.
Allou spread the word and took out ads in local papers. Most of the girls she found were not professional players.
“I just played some tamtam. I learned to play drums when I joine d Bella Mondo,” said Karis, the group's drummer.
The girls spent the next four years learning to play their instruments. Many gave up along the way, but eight of them soldiered on with Allou, and Bella Mondo was born.
The band plays original songs and covers. Their music spans a wide range of styles: funk, reggae, pop music.
They released their first album in 2019...and have performed in Paris, Dakar, Cotonou and, of course, here at home in Abidjan. You can see them nearly every Thursday at this bar, the same venue that gave the band its start years ago.
“Oh yes, I was surprised at first. A woman singing, you see that everyday, but an entire band, playing all the instruments and everything? It was extraordinary. I was dumbstruck. Bella Mondo is a great band,” said music enthusiast Kader Annema.
The women are now working on their second album.。
