III. Read the following passages and choose the best answer to the questions. (10pts)
THE BEATLES
In the 1960s, The Beatles were probably the most famous pop group in the whole world. Since
then, there have been a great many groups that have achieved enormous fame, so it is perhaps difficult
now to imagine how sensational The Beatles were at that time. They were four boys from the north
of England and none of them had any training in music. They started by performing and recording
songs by black Americans and they had some success with these songs. Then they started writing their
own songs and that was when they became really popular. The Beatles changed pop music. They were
the first pop group to achieve great success from songs they had written themselves. After that it
became common for groups and singers to write their own songs. The Beatles did not have a long
career. Their first hit record was in 1963 and they split up in 1970. They stopped doing live
performances in 1966 because it had become too dangerous for them – their fans were so excited that
they surrounded them and tried to take their clothes as souvenirs! However, today some of their songs
remain as famous as they were when they first came out. Throughout the world many people can sing
part of a Beatles song if you ask them.
