A
Many people think country music and western music are nearly the same. In fact, they are two different kinds of music in America.
They come from different parts of America. Country music comes from the southeast of America. But western music comes from the southwest of America.
Another difference is the ways of playing them. Country music has a simple (简单的) way of playing. It uses fewer instruments like guitars and harmonicas (口琴). But western music needs more and bigger instruments like trumpets, trombones (长号) and so on.
Country music is folk (民间的) music. It’s the music that travels in the country. Men and women often play it. However, there is much dancing in western music and men often play it.
However, country music and western music often share similar topics (相似的主题) for songs. They have these songs with the topics like love, money, crime and so on. These songs often tell the life of the poor in America.

One year ago Bertha and Grace became close friends at a college in Dartmouth.
One day, Bertha said that her aunt Margaret had invited her to spend the summer holiday with her. And they would have picnics and parties as well. But Grace told Bertha that she planned to stay in Clarkman’s bookstore until the new term began.
Grace had to do something to feed herself because her parents died many years ago. Bertha watched her friend’s pale (苍白的) face. Just then she got a good idea. The next day when Grace came back, Bertha showed her an invitation letter from her aunt Margaret.
“Grace, would you like to spend your holiday with us? I will help you find a part-time job in our town.” Grace cried after reading it.
“Grace, please spend the holiday with me, or Margaret will be disappointed (失望的). I want you to be happy,” Bertha said.
The holiday quickly passed by, and finally one letter from Margaret came to Bertha.
“Bertha, Grace is the sweetest girl in the world, and I am very grateful to you for sending her here.”
