Read the passage and answer the questions.

Have you ever heard a song that makes you want to dance immediately? That is probably salsa. Salsa is one of the most exciting types of Latin music, and it began in the Caribbean, especially in Cuba and Puerto Rico, before Cuban and Puerto Rican communities helped it grow popular in New York City during the 1960s and 1970s.

The name "salsa" means "sauce" in Spanish, and many people say this is perfect because the music itself is a mix of different flavors. It combines African rhythms, Spanish guitar traditions, and Cuban dance styles, which is why it sounds so rich and lively. Over the years, cities such as Havana, San Juan, Miami, and Panama City each created their own version of salsa, adding local instruments and rhythms.

What really makes salsa special is its powerful beat, usually played with instruments like the conga, the trumpet, and the piano. This strong rhythm is one reason salsa is so popular for dancing. Salsa dancing looks difficult at first, but the basic steps are not too hard to learn, and many dance schools around the world now offer beginner classes. Dancers move their hips and feet quickly while following the music, and they can dance alone, with a partner, or even in large groups at social events called "salsa nights."

Besides dancing, salsa music also plays an important role in Latin culture. Musicians often use their songs to tell stories about love, family, or daily life, so the lyrics can be just as meaningful as the rhythm. Famous salsa singers, such as Celia Cruz and Rubén Blades, became international stars because their music touched people from completely different cultures.

Although most salsa songs are in Spanish, people who do not understand the words can still enjoy the music fully. This is because salsa communicates through emotion and rhythm rather than language alone, and that might be exactly why it continues to attract new fans across the world every year.

Why do many people think "sauce" is a good name for salsa?

  • It is only played in some Caribbean countries.
  • It brings together several different musical traditions.
  • It was first created by people in New York.
  • It involves moving the hips and feet very quickly.

What does the writer say about salsa dancing in paragraph 3?

  • Almost dancers prefer performing with a chosen partner.
  • Beginners need several years of practice to look attractive.
  • Salsa dancing is easier to learn than people might first think.
  • Students mainly learn its basic steps in large Spanish schools.

According to the passage, many salsa musicians write songs to _____.

  • show off their skills with different local instruments
  • become famous international stars in different cultures
  • teach new dancers how to follow the fast music
  • share stories about their everyday lives and relationships

According to the writer, salsa continues to be popular worldwide because _____.

  • its universal themes are easy for everyone to relate to
  • its emotional expression and rhythm need no translation to be felt
  • its famous artists are recognized in many different countries
  • its fans prefer the strong rhythm of the trumpet

What is the main idea of the passage?

  • Salsa is a popular dance invented in New York.
  • Latin music relies mainly on traditional Spanish instruments.
  • Salsa is an exciting and culturally important music style.
  • Famous salsa musicians usually write songs about their daily lives.
