The audience starts to scream and young people all over Britain turn on their TVs. Yes, it’s Top of the pops!
Top of the pops is an amazing 45-year-old programme. Pop stars from all over the world appear on this successful TV prograrmme. After about 2340 shows, it’s still the most popular pop music show in Britain．So what’s the secret?
“We get lots of bands to perform live in the studio,” says producer Chris Cowey. “That just doesn’t happen on other shows”
Chris starts the preparations for the programme over a week before it goes out．His first job is to decide which bands to have on the show. When the chart of the top twenty songs is produced on Sunday, Chris can start to book the bands
Monday starts with Chris meeting his sound, lighting and camera workers. They listen to each song and plan the show.
Tuesday is paperwork day. There are bookings to make sure of, letters to answer and lots of phone calls to make. The show is on Thursday. Bands arrive at the studio from 10 o’clock in the morning and start practicing. Tonight’s presenter, Jo Whiley, practises too
First the bands go to make up. Judy and Issy are the make-up artists. “We see the stars with no make-up on, looking terrible,” says Issy. Then the bands go to the costume department where Marianne dresses the stars.
Back in the studio things are happening. The audience is practising their dance moves! It takes over two hours to record the whole programme, then Chris edits it all night long. The final version is exactly 29 minutes long

Sunday is more like Monday than it used to be. Places of business that used to keep daytime “business hours” are now open late into the night. And on the Internet, the hour of the day and the day of the week have become irrelevant （不相關的）. A half century ago in the United States, most people experienced strong and precise dividing lines between days of rest and days of work, school time and summer time. Today the boundaries still exist, but they seem not clear.
The law in almost all states used to require stores to close on Sunday; in most, it no longer does. It used to keep the schools open in all seasons except summer; in most, it still does. And whether the work week should strengthen its legal limits, or whether it should become more “flexible,” is often debated. How should we, as a society, organize our time? Should we go even further in relaxing the boundaries of time until we live in a world in which every minute is much like every other?
These are not easy questions even to ask. Part of the difficulty is that we rarely recognize the “law of time” even when we meet it face to face. We know as children that we have to attend school a certain number of hours, a certain number of days, a certain number of years—but unless we meet the truant officer （學監）, we may well think that we should go to school due to social custom and parents’ demand rather than to the law. As adults we are familiar with “extra pay for overtime working,” but less familiar with the fact that what constitutes （構成）“overtime” is a matter of legal definition. When we turn the clock forward to start daylight-saving time, have we ever thought to ourselves: “Here is the law in action”? As we shall see, there is a lot of law that has great influence on how we organize and use time: compulsory education law, overtime law, and daylight-saving law — as well as law about Sunday closing, holidays, being late to work, time zones, and so on. Once we begin to look for it, we will have no trouble finding a law of time to examine and assess.
【小題1】By saying “Sunday is more like Monday than it used to be”, the writer means that_____ .
| A．work time is equal to rest time |
| B．many people have a day off on Monday |
| C．it is hard for people to decide when to rest |
| D．the line between work time and rest time is unclear |
| A．fail to make full use of their time | B．enjoy working overtime for extra pay |
| C．are unaware of the law of time | D．welcome flexible working hours |
| A．need to acquire knowledge | B．have to obey their parents |
| C．need to find companions | D．have to observe the law |
| A．Our life is governed by the law of time. |
| B．How to organize time is not worth debating. |
| C．New ways of using time change our society. |
| D．Our time schedule is decided by social customs. |

Downing Street sources have indicated that the British tennis player，Andy Murray，will be Recommended for a knighthood(爵士頭銜)for ending Britain’s 77-year wait for a Wimbledon men’s champion title．David Cameron，the British prime minister，who was in the royal box on Sunday at Wimbledon．told reporters that he couldn’t think of anyone who deserves one more．
More news on the knighthood is surely to come．but Murray’s achievement has a twist in that he is Scottish．not English．
Also in the royal box show on Sunday was Scotland’s first minister, Alex Salmond, waving the white-and-blue Scottish flag．in the row directly behind Cameron after the victory．No Scotsman had won the singles at Wimbledon since Harold Mahony in 1896．Salmond was later asked on BBC Radio whether Murray’s achievement had been a victory for Britain． “Absolutely，and for tennis fans everywhere，"Salmond said．“Let everyone enjoy the victory．But you will allow us just the little private thing．Let us wave our national flag．’’
The Scottish government，headed by Salmond，has announced that Scotland will hold a referendum(全民票)on independence from Britain in September 2014．Murray，who lives in the London area but was born and raised in the Scottish town of Dunblane，has not said publicly which way he would vote on the issue，and his Wimbledon Championship will only mix interest in his views．
But this was，make no mistake，a national moment．Murray’s semifinal victory over Jerzy Janowicz drew a peak television audience of 13.24 million viewers．the biggest of the year in Britain．The final then topped that with a peak audience of 17.3 million，the biggest audience for a Wimbledon final since at least 1990, according to the BBC．
Only one name will go on the trophy(獎杯)，but tennis at the highest level has now become a team event．Murray，who once had frequent fits of anger during matches，has transformed himself into a much more focused force with the help of an extensive support group．Murray’s rise to champion has clearly something to do with his decision to hire the former number one tennis champion Ivan Lendl as his coach just before the2012 season．“He’s been very patient with me; I'm just happy I managed to do it for him．”
Onward Team Murray goes toward a defense of the United States Open title，beginning next month，and then eventually to defending at Wimbledon next year with the British drought(干旱) well and truly over．
1.The underlined word “twist” in the second paragraph refers to Murray’s_____.
A．achievement B．knighthood
C．champion title D．nationality
2.Which of the following is TRUE?
A．Murray is the first British to have won the singles at Wimbledon．
B．Murray’s victory over Jerzy Janowicz drew the biggest audience of the year．
C．Murray has won the championship of the United States Open before．
D．Murray was born a strong，talented and cool-headed tennis player．
3.What does the author mean by saying“the British drought well and truly over”?
A．Murray is concerned about the drought that struck Britain．
B．Drought in Britain will be over next year when Wimbledon is held．
C．British government’s rule over Scotland will come to an end soon．
D．The British people’s desire for a Wimbledon victory is fully satisfied．
4.What does the writer intend to tell us?
A．The whole Great Britain is enjoying Murray’s victory．
B．Scotland is going to gain independence from Britain
C．The secret lies behind Murray’s Wimbledon victory．
D．Murray was torn between the choices in the referendum．
