问题     In previous generations, young people were under their parents’ control; now the teenage children of the West’s richest generation were ready for something to get excited about. The Beatles simply put a spark to a fuse(导火索)that was waiting to be lit.
    Everything changed, and what changed for the Beatles was their lives and their working habits in the midst of the hysterical(歇斯底里的)following the band attracted. Because of the demand of the fans to see them perform, they played bigger and bigger venues(meeting places), especially in America.
    But John, Paul, George and Ringo became increasingly unhappy that, because of the screaming of their fans, neither the band nor the audience could hear the music. Creatively frustrated and tired of the pressures of life under siege(围攻)from their fans, they retired from playing concerts in 1966 and decided to concentrate on recording.
    It was from this point that the brilliance of the Beatles really began to reveal itself: they would record over their career some 200 songs. Never before nor since has any recording and writing group even developed and yet remained the same in the way the Beatles did
    Their songs never lost their universal appeal thanks to the warmth and timelessness of their melodies and lyrics.
    John and Paul were powerful singers with distinctive styles. It became apparent that, despite the fact that the songwriting credits were always equally attributed to them, Paul and John wrote and sang their own songs. George also contributed two or three of his own compositions to each of the Beatles eleven albums. Even Ringo wrote and sang the occasional song.
It is implied in the third paragraph that______.
选项 A、the Beatles had no appetite for fame
B、the audience were unhappy about the sound effect
C、pop musicians get easily tired as they are under great pressures of life
D、the screaming of the fans prevented the Beatles from performing happily and creatively
答案D
解析 这也是一道推理题。阅读第三段，我们知道披头士乐队越来越不开心，因为歌迷的尖叫声使得乐队和观众无法聆听音乐。乐队的创作受到影响，而且他们也厌烦了在歌迷包围下的生活压力。由此可知，选项D“歌迷们的尖叫声使得披头士乐队无法开心和富有创造力地演出”符合文章的意思。
