B1阅读理解

It's time to remind myself what I love about life here in California,the USA. to remember what I desperately miss when I go home. Real radio In the USA there are so many radio stations that those iPod tuner things don't work at all. There is,simply,no dead air. It took me a while to discover the USA's many public radio stations,which don't broadcast any advertisements. KCRW is my favourite station,for its blend of indie (独立的) music and current affairs. But I also listen to KJAZZ and KPCC. But before you feel jealous―it's all online. My favourites; American Life,Snap Judgement and Henry Rollins' live show every Satur?day night. Take a listen online for free. News? Well,there's not a lot of news from South Africa,and when it is,it's bad and full of fear,so I ignore it. But I care about any place I live in,and that includes the USA. And on public radio,the USA is covered in depth,from the perspective of individual stories rather than statistics.

The festivals

I'm jealously watching tweets (推文) and Facebook boasts and reviews from SXSW―seems like half the people I used to work with in South Africa are there* meeting Grumpy Cat and watching bands they've always wanted to see live. It's great to know that these thousands of festivals are so close,and that one day,if the film school schedule ever allows me to leave campus for more than a few days,I can go to one or two of them. I have already exchanged my much loved Ford Mustang for a bigger,less sexy car―a car spacious enough to sleep in―so that next year I can be there,not just dream of it.

The famous people 

When I go back to South Africa,I'm often asked if I've spotted any famous people. It's awkward for me. I feel the same way about it as I feel when an Ameri?can asks me if there are lions in the streets. No,not lions. I have met some famous people. I chatted to RJ Mitte from Breaking Bad outside a club in West Holly?wood. Many of my professors are famous directors. The problem is that,once you meet these famous people,they're just people. This feels disappointing at first,like you're missing a Jesus moment of some sort. But if you think about it,it's in?spiring. What it means is that 1,little me (right now,also "just a person") could be a famous just-a-person person one day,and get to make all the films I just dream of now.
