Ⅰ.阅读理解

• 1．There have certainly been records that have been hugely popular and some of those have had a message.Can there be many songs that really did change the world？Did they really change the hearts and minds of ordinary people？
     There is one，Goettingen，which did，but it's hardly known now.
     Even though France and Germany are neighbors，there was bad feeling between them 50 years ago as a result of World War Ⅱ.Into this area of hatred and anger stepped a singer with a gentle voice.
     Barbara was her stage name.She took it from her Russian grandmother.She was born in Paris in 1930.She was Jewish and so a target （目标） for the Nazis.But，twenty years after the end of the Second World War，she travelled to the German city Goettingen.She fell in love with the city and its people and recorded the song Goettingen，first in French and then in German.
     It moved her German audience at the jye.aiatre.The song became a hit.A street was named after her.The city gave its Medal of Honor to her.The song's popularity made an important contribution to repairing FranceGermany relations.
     One of the people in the audience was a student by the name of Gerhard Schroeder.He later became Chancellor of Germany.He said："I was a college student when she came to sing.It went to our hearts，the start of a wonderful friendship between our countries."
     Listening to the song today，it's easy to understand its attraction then.It is still a beautiful song of love，although it is a bit sad in parts.Barbara had much to be sad about.She was extremely frightened by the war.
     In Germany，she was loved for the love she had given to the people.In France，she was a star.Streets were named after her there，too.A stamp had her face on it.When she died in 1997，250 thousand people went to the funeral （葬礼）.
     Lionel Jospin，who served as Prime Minister of France from 1997 to 2002，once said："Barbara was a woman who knew suffering and understood the suffering of others."
