My father died 32 years ago, and I wonder how he would feel seeing his daughter politically centered, a diet coke addict, sometimes chewing Wrigley’s juicy fruit gum, and living in the United States.He didn’t live long enough to see this and the spread of American culture in the last decades.He would probably be convinced that American pop culture was flooding Brazil. I think it is difficult to prevent American cultural hegemony(霸权).Many years ago, there was an attempt to reduce the number of American films.In Brazil.The government passed a law that all cinemas should put on about a higher percentage of Brazilian movies.However, we didn’t have enough good films, or even enough films to show, so this measure fell soon after.American music is ,of course, present in Brazil.Everybody knows about Madonna, Michael Jackson, and other icons of American music; but Brazilian music has never lost its first place in the Brazilians’ preferences. I think we don’t need to be afraid of cultural free trade.People tend to be selective, and not everything that is imported is necessarily bad.Our native Brazilians also stand up against the dominance of imported culture in their lives while they wear watches and shorts and use tape recorders.We can’t avoid the process, but we could learn to be more critical and as selective as possible. 56.According to the passage, the author’s father . A.was greatly influenced by American pop culture B.forbade his children to watch American films C.purchased nothing other than Brazilian goods D.didn’t have positive attitudes to American pop culture 57.In paragraph 2, the author intends to tells us that . A.it was a pity for her father not to see the spread of American pop culture B.her father would be surprised to see the influence of American pop culture C.American pop culture has a great influence on Brazilians D.She herself was greatly influenced by American pop culture 58.The Brazilian government made an attempt to . A.control the influence of American pop culture. B.prohibit American pop music from being played. C.forbid Brazilians to watch American films.
