A Night Out

Michelle walked out the theater humming(哼唱) a tune.She’d just seen a wonderful musical at the beautiful Paramount Theater.1.she closed her eyes, she could still see the beautiful costumes and stage sets.It was now after 11 p.m., and she really didn’t like being out late by 2..Since no one else had wanted to go to the show, she 3.go alone.She headed down the dark Seattle Street toward her car.No car.The parking space was empty.‘That’s odd,’ she thought.‘Am I on the wrong street?’ She checked the street signs.No, she was on Pine Street.And she was sure that this was 4.she’d left her car.But her car was nowhere to be seen.She began to feel nervous.Someone had stolen her car! What was she going to do?
Should she call the police or call someone to give her a ride? She decided to call someone.She took out her cell phone only 5.(find) that her battery was dead! Now what? Maybe she could take a cab.She only had $1 in cash 6.she checked every corner of her wallet.And to her horror, her credit card was missing! Then she remembered.She’d ordered something on the Internet and left the card by her computer.She headed back toward the theater and the lights on Pike Street.Then she saw something familiar.Her car! She realized she 7. (park) on Pike Street not Pine Street! Once again 8. (sing) a song from the show, she got into her car and headed home.

In Shanghai's Grand Theater, a fashionable, mainly young audience applauds enthusiastically as Guo Yong takes center stage.He holds a large bushy tree branch with leaves.Blowing on one of the leaves, he produces a sound like the singing of birds as he plays a traditional Buyi folk song.Some other musicians are also playing the traditional instruments from various ethnic groups in China.

It's the first time such music has ever been performed in the Grand Theater.But all this is the efforts of Zhu Zheqin, a Cantonese?born singer, who has made it her mission to help preserve China's traditional ethnic music.

In 2009, after being appointed a United Nations Development Program ambassador, Zhu traveled through some of China's remotest regions in an attempt to document the traditional music of various minority groups.In the course of the four?month trip, she recorded more than a thousand songs.But she noticed that many of the best musicians were old, and some of the music was at risk of dying out.

“I was shocked by the beauty of what I heard—it was so good,” she says.“But it needed support.I hope to let people see the beauty of these things in the contemporary times.”

So Zhu decided to introduce some of the musicians to a wider audience.By doing this, she hopes to rekindle(点燃) the interest of the younger generation.“Young people don't like this music much; they prefer pop music and love songs.They think these songs are something their grandma sings.This kind of repackaging gives young people a new door into their heritage.”

Zhu believes China needs to look again at its own roots.“China today is basically all Western art; in our conservatories (音乐学院) Western classical music is the top,” she says.“For China to really contribute to the world, we need to go on our own path.So what can represent China today?” The answer, she suggests, is to move from “made in China” to “created in China”.

3.What is Zhu Zheqin's idea about Chinese traditional music?

C. China has contributed a lot to the Western art.

D. Only the things created in China can be symbols of China.

By far the most common difficulty in study is simple failure to get down to regular concentrated work.This difficulty is much greater for those who do not work to a plan and have no regular routine of study.Many students muddle along,doing a bit of this subject or that,as the mood takes them,or letting their set work pile up until the last possible moment.

Few students work to a set timetable.They say that if they did work out a timetable for themselves they would not keep to it,or would have to change it frequently,since they can never predict from one day to the next what their activities will be.

No doubt some students take much more kindly to a regular routine than others.There are many who shy away from a self-controlled weekly timetable,and dislike being tied down to a fixed program of work.Many able students state that they work in cycles.When they become interested in a topic they work on it attentively for three or four days at a time.On other days they avoid work completely.It has to be admitted that we do not fully understand the motivation to work.Most people over 25 years of age have become used to a work routine,and the majority of really productive workers set aside regular hours for the more important areas of their work.The “tough-minded” school of workers doesn’t fully accept the idea that good work can only be done naturally,under the influence of inspiration.

Those who believe that they need only work and study as the fit takes them have a mistaken belief either in their own talent or in the value of “freedom”.Freedom from control and discipline leads to unhappiness rather than to “self-expression” or “personality development”.Our society insists on regular habits,timekeeping and punctuality (being on time),and whether we like it or not,if we mean to make our way in society,we have to meet its demands.

1.The most widespread problem in applying oneself to study is __________ .

A. changing from one subject to another

B. the failure to keep to a set timetable of work

C. the unwillingness to work out a systematic plan

D. working on a subject only when one feels like it

2.Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Many students are not interested in using a self-controlled timetable.

B. Many students don’t like being told to study to a fixed timetable.

C. Most people over 25 years of age don’t work to a set timetable.

D. Tough-minded people agree that good work is done naturally.

3.The underlined part “as the fit takes them” means __________.

A. when they have the energy

B. when they are in the mood

C. when they feel fit

D. when they find conditions suitable

4.A suitable title for the passage might be __________.

A. Attitudes to Study

B. A Study Plan

C. The Difficulties of Studying

D. Study and Self-discipline

Research shows that the summer before college can be a dangerous time for teenagers,as they are between home and high school on the one side,and a more challenging and independent existence as a college student on the other.

Take drinking for example.Research has reported that teenagers tend to increase their alcohol use during the summer before college and in their first term.Such drinking can lead to tragedy: it's estimated that more than 1,100 college students at 18 to 24 years of age die each year from alcohol-related injuries,including car crashes,and almost 600,000 are injured under the influence of alcohol.

In addition to drinking,future freshmen may also have gaps in their knowledge about other aspects of university life.A study has found that students are “generally aware” of the fact that they have to place them into college courses and their school's curricular requirements.In addition,many students hold misunderstandings such as “Getting into college is the hardest part”,and “I can take whatever classes I want when I get to college”.In fact,students’courses may be determined by their level of preparation.

It is found that college-bound high-school graduates are faced with a number of potentially frightening tasks during the summer.For example,colleges typically require students to take placement tests(分班考试)and fill out a lot of paperwork,including housing and medical forms,over the summer.Completing these tasks may be especially frightening for low-income and first-generation college-bound students whose families may be short of experience with the college-going process.

In addition,it's only in the summer after high-school graduation when students face the reality of paying the first college bill,which often includes unexpected costs like required health insurance.For college-intending students,successfully controlling the post-high-school summer thus requires a level of finance that may be unrelated to their ability to succeed in the classroom.As a result,students who have already broken through many barriers to college admission may fail to enter college.

Paring college-bound students with “fellow advisers”---students already in college who have been trained to support and coach their learners through the summer---improves the rate at which the learners show up at college.Even more wonderful,a low-cost campaign of text messages---in which researchers sent recent high-school graduates and their parents a series of eight to ten text-message reminders of key tasks to complete over the summer---is just as effective in increasing the rate of students who successfully make the change to college.

A little “summer pushing” could be a key step in getting students all the way across the finish line.
