Country music is one of the most popular kinds of music in the United states today because it is about simple but strong human feeling and events---love, sadness, good times, and bad times. It tells real—life stories and sound the way people really talk.
Country music, sometimes is called country-western, comes by two kinds of music. One is traditional music from the eastern United States. The other is traditional cowboy music from the west. The singers usual play guitars. At first it is popular mostly in the South. And during World War II, thousands of Southerners went to the Northeast and Midwest to work in the factories. They took their music with them. Soldiers which were from the rest of the country went to army camps in the South learned country music. Thus they became popular all over country.

【答案】①feeling→feelings ； ②sound→sounds； ③sometimes后面的is 去掉 ； ④comes后面的by→from ； ⑤usual→usually ； ⑥is →was ； ⑦And →But ； ⑧which→who/that； ⑨they→it ； ⑩over后加the
【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了乡村音乐。
①考查名词。feeling是“知觉”，feelings是“感情”。根据后面的解释“it is about simple but strong human feelings and events---love, sadness, good times, and bad times.” 它是关于简单但强烈的人类情感和事件——爱，悲伤，美好时光和坏时光。由句意可知在本句中表达的是“情感（feelings）”而非“知觉，感觉”故把feeling改为feelings
②考查主谓一致。句意：它讲述现实生活中的故事，表达人们的谈话方式。分析句子It tells real—life stories and sound the way people really talk可知，It 是sound的逻辑主语，谓语动词要用单数，故把sound改成sounds。
③考查非谓语动词。句意：乡村音乐有时被称为country-western，它来源于两种音乐。分析句子Country music, sometimes is called country-western, comes from two kinds of music.可知Country music的谓语动词是comes。而,sometimes is called country-western是它的定语，如果有is,可改为which sometimes is called country-western，二者为被动关系。因此改为非谓语为sometimes called country-western，所以要去掉is。
④c考查介词。句意:…来自两种音乐.分析句意可知为“来自（come from）”,come by为“从旁走过,得到,获得”.因此要把by改为from..
⑤考查副词。usual在句子中作状语，修饰play，修饰动词的要用副词，而usual 为形容词，故usual改为usually。
⑥考查时态。句意：起初它在南部很流行。由此可知最初表示这件事发生在过去 ，因此谓语动词要用过去时，因此要把is改为was。
⑦考查连词。句意：起初它在南部很流行。但是第二次世界大战期间，成千上万的南方人到东北部和中西部去工厂干活。根据句意可知前后两句是转折关系，而非并列关系。因此要把And 改为But。
⑧考查定语从句。分析句子Soldiers which were from the rest of the country went to army camps in the South learned country musi可知，soldiers被一个定语从句修饰，soldiers（士兵），指人，在定语从句中作主语，要用who/that。故把which改为who或that.
⑨考查代词。根据上文所说的是country music乡村音乐，这是不可数名词，不能用they,要用it，因此they改为it。
⑩考查固定搭配。句意：因此乡村音乐在全国各地都很受欢迎。all over the country 为固定搭配，“遍及全国”，因此要在all over 后加the。
