“The Times They Are A­Changin'” (1963)It was released as the title track of his third album of the same name, which launched him as a major voice in the new folk scene and marked the beginning of the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s.Critic Michael Gray called it “the archetypical protest song.”“Ballad in Plain D” (1964)Dylan details his fractious relationship with Suze Rotolo in this long track from his fourth album, Another Side of Bob Dylan.Dylan scholar Clinton Heylin called it “an exercise of painful autobiography.”“Like a Rolling Stone” (1965)Chosen by Rolling Stone as number one on its list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, it was from the Highway 61 Revisited album and transformed Dylan's image from a folk singer to a rock star.He wrote it after returning from an exhausting tour of England.He was thinking about quitting the music business, but he worked out his frustrations about the public's demanding expectations of him through this song.“All Along the Watchtower” (1968)After a near­fatal motorcycle accident in 1966, Dylan went into seclusion for almost a year.He emerged with one of his greatest artistic achievements with this track from the John Wesley Harding album.Many critics have seen this song as a summing­up of Dylan's life and career.“Gotta Serve Somebody” (1979)In the late 1970s, Dylan underwent a conversion to born­again Christianity, taking five months off touring to attend Bible school.This yearning plea for meaning expressed his new religion.It was part of his Slow Train Coming rock­gospel album.“Things Have Changed” (2000)Written for the film Wonder Boys, this strange portrait of an aging star shuffling through show business won Dylan a Golden Globe and an Oscar.语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文。让我们通过这些传奇音乐来寻觅鲍勃·迪伦的人生故事。

(2018·成都摸底测试)“Hungary？”I looked at my school headmaster in confusion.“I

never mentioned wanting to go to Hungary.” And with that, my adventure started.My name is Jonathan Diamond and I just finished an amazing school exchange year in Hungary.Going on an exchange had always been my dream.When my high school offered an all­year 1

2program, I jumped at the opportunity.It would pay for almost everything and all I had to do was buy a plane ticket.I knew where I wanted to go: Spain, the country of dancers wearing flowing red dresses.So when I heard that I was going to Hungary, I was pretty shocked.But I decided to make the best of it, since it was, after all, a once­in­a­lifetime opportunity.Before I knew it, I was on the airplane, leaving for Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport, Hungary.I had difficult times when I almost gave up.Hungarian is the hardest language on the planet. Cultural differences occasionally embarrassed both my peers and me.I had to give up eating carrots, my beautiful favorite, for Hungarians think carrots are rubbish in their country.The change in the landscape was amazing, looking nothing like skyscrapers, bullet trains, cars, and people in tiny houses that I had been accustomed to.Gradually, I fell in love with the relaxing lifestyle, the warm­hearted people, and getting home at 2：30 p．m.at the latest from school.And I was sad to leave on my very last day.Having the host family who took me as one of their own members was the best thing I've ever experienced.From my little sisters, I learned how to embrace life to its fullest.From my brothers I learned that it's OK for a boy to run around the house.From my host parents I learned to stay positive, to smile and that when you pick the right people and take their hands, suddenly, you become friends.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文，讲述作者作为一个交换生在国外学习的经历和感受。
