Great American Song Contest
Contest Rules & Entry:
This annual event is designed for amateur and semi­pro(半职业) songwriters only. Songwriters who earn over $10,000 annually from song publishing royalties(版税) do not have qualifications.
Amateur and semi­pro songwriters from all nations of the world are invited to participate in the Great American Song Contest. Song lyrics(歌词) may be in any language. Please include an English translation.
All participants will be sent an entry confirmation and a judging schedule when their songs are received and processed.
This year’s deadline is March 5. Online submissions must be received by this date. Mailed submissions must be postmarked(盖邮戳) by this date.
An entry fee of $30 is required for each entered song. After the first two entries, the entry fee drops to $25 for each additional song.
If the same song is entered in multiple categories, each requires a separate entry fee.
Prizes & Benefits:
Grand Prize Winner receives $1,000 in cash; each First Prize Winner receives $500 in cash. In addition, all winners receive a free membership to TAXI Independent A&R Company—$300 value!
Unlike those highly competitive “big cash prize” contests, which receive 20,000 to 30,000 entries each year but reward only a few, the Great American Song Contest offers a clear benefit to everyone who enters. Songwriters can get their songs heard and get feedback from knowledgeable music­industry professionals. That’s because the Great American Song Contest offers this opportunity and unique guarantee: All participating songwriters receive written opinions on their songs from experienced music­industry professionals!

【解题导语】 本文是一则广告。文章主要介绍Great American Song Contest的规则、参赛费用和奖励。
1.B 解析:细节理解题。根据第一段“This annual event is designed for amateur and semi­pro(半职业) songwriters only. Songwriters who earn over $10,000 annually from song publishing royalties(版税) do not have qualifications.”可知 ,只有业余和半职业歌曲作者可以参赛,即并非所有歌曲作者都能参赛。故正确答案为B。
2.C 解析:细节理解题。根据Contest Rules & Entry部分倒数第二段“An entry fee of $30 is required for each entered song. After the first two entries, the entry fee drops to $25 for each additional song.”可知,三首参赛歌曲需付(30×2+25=)85美元。故正确答案为C。
3.D 解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句中的“All participating songwriters receive written opinions on their songs from experienced music­industry professionals!”可知,每个参赛者的歌曲都可以得到有经验的音乐界专业人士的书面评价。故正确答案为D。
