VOA常速英语听力2012年09月合辑(文本):Egyptian-Singer-Tackles-Real-Metaphorical-Walls CAIRO — The Fair Play international music awards honor young musicians for their work exposing corruption and oppression around the world.

There is a freshness to the 29-year-old singer, who also is an actor and a mime - a contrast to the pop trends common among her contemporaries. And then there is the accordion.
