Ⅴ.阅读理解
Just three years since Lady Gaga had her first US number one single，the pop star has claimed the top spot in Forbes magazine’s annual Celebrity 100 list.
The popular star moved up four positions from last year and has knocked TV chat show host Oprah Winfrey of the top spot.
But how has the singer become such a global phenomenon in such a short space of time？Two experts in music，fashion and social networking give their opinions.
George Ergatoudis—Head of Music Radio 1
“The key thing is Lady Gaga realised by using all the current social networking sites，and connecting that with her fashion，she has become an all-round star.Everytime she goes out the door she looks different.She’s getting photographed，she’s aware of that and she’s using it by updating her look literally on a daily basis.
Another key thing，was that quite early on，her record label was showing how gifted she is as a musician.The music she makes，the songs she writes and the production she has are all brilliant contemporary pop music.She literally is turning into a global superstar.”
Calum Brannan—Co-Founder of social Networking support company Crowd Control HQ
“Social media is a reflection(反映)of what we love，so people are becoming very good at sharing exactly what they love and the brands and musicians they love.
The fact she has 10 million Twitter followers and 30 million Facebook fans is a massive reflection on Lady Gaga and the influence she has.Once out there，Twitter and Facebook help keep that person’s profile(个人形象) alive.Her fans are always talking about her and sharing everything she does even when she’s not on stage or in concert.
I think even if she wasn’t on Facebook and Twitter，her fans and followers would put her there anyway.But the most important thing is，she is on there and she’s using them.”
【解题导语】 作为一名国际流行巨星，美国女歌手Lady Gaga在Twitter上有一千万粉丝，在Facebook上有三千万粉丝，她在全世界的影响力还在与日俱增。究竟她为何会有如此强大的影响力呢？请听两位音乐、时尚及社交网络专家的解读。
1．What can be the best title for the text?
A．What Is Lady Gaga’s Life like?
B．What has Lady Gaga Achieved?
C．Why Is Lady Gaga So Popular?
D．Why Is Lady Gaga Using Facebook?
解析：选C。标题归纳题。本文主要引用两位专家的话，分析了Lady Gaga为什么会在全球具有如此强大的影响力的原因，重点并非她的个人生活、事业成就以及成功道路，所以C为正确选项。
2．Both George Ergatoudis and Calum Brannan owe Lady Gaga’s success to________.
A．hard work B．social media
C．her faithful fans D．her music talents
解析：选B。推理判断题。综合两位专家的话，可以看出他们都强调了社交网络对Lady Gaga的成功所起的作用。他们并未提及Lady Gaga的勤奋努力；虽然Calum Brannan提到粉丝的作用，但George Ergatoudis并未提到；George Ergatoudis提到了Lady Gaga的音乐才能，但Calum Brannan没有提到，所以不可选D项。
3．The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph probably refers to________.
A．photos B．videos
C．fans and followers
D．Facebook and Twitter
解析：选D。词义推测题。根据最后一段，Calum Brannan说“即使Lady Gaga不使用Facebook和Twitter，她的粉丝也会发布关于她的消息”，后面他接着说“重要的是，她使用它们”，由此判断这里的them是指Facebook和Twitter。
4．What can be inferred from the text?
A．Lady Gaga has had only one US number one single.
B．Lady Gaga keeps a close contact with her fans.
C．Lady Gaga’s influence is limited to America.
D．Lady Gaga ranked 10th in last year’s Forbes Celebrity 100 list.
解析：选B。推理判断题。根据最后两段，可知Lady Gaga经常更新自己的Facebook和Twitter，由此判断她和粉丝有密切的联系。
