Big Brothers Big Sisters is based on the simplicity and power of friendship. It is a program which provides friendship and fun by matching vulnerable young people(ages 7-17) with a volunteer adult who can be both a role model and a supportive friend.
Volunteer tutors come from all walks of life—married, single, with or without children. Big Brothers and Big Sisters are not replacement parents or social workers. They are tutors: someone to trust, to have fun with, to talk and go to when needed.
A Big Sister and Little Sister will generally spend between one and four hours together three or four times each month for at least twelve months. They enjoy simple activities such as a picnic at a park, cooking, playing sport or going to a football match. These activities improve the friendship and help the young person develop positive self-respect, confidence and life direction.
Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations exist throughout the world. It is the large and most well-known provider of tutor services internationally and has been operating for 25 years.
Emily and Sarah have been matched since 2008. Emily is a 10-year-old girl who has experienced some difficulties being accepted by her schoolmates at school. “I was pretty sure there was something wrong with me.”
Emily’s mum came across Big Brothers Big Sisters and thought it would be of benefit to Emily by “providing different feedback(反馈) about herself other than just relying on schoolmates to measure her self-worth.
Sarah wanted to get involved in a volunteer program. “I googled it and found out how to be a part of it. I thought it would be fun for me to get involved in making time to do something because sometimes it is all work and no play.”
Big Brothers Big Sisters has been of great benefit and enjoyment to both Emily and Sarah. They love and look forward to their time together and the partnership has certainly helped Emily be more comfortable in being the wonderful, happy and unique girl she is!

【小题1】_________________________________
There were the older jazz musicians who hung around our house when I was young．I saw how much they practiced, how serious they were about their art．I knew then I had to work just as hard if I wanted to succeed．Of course, my father inspired me a lot, and many teachers took the time to nurture my talent and the talents of other students in our school．
【小题2】_____________________________
Yes．We’ve done such a poor job with music education because, as a society, we haven’t maintained the kind of education that a true artist and musician needs．Young people haven’t been able to equate romance and talent with music．For instance, most of the people who make it in the music industry today have to look good．How they sound is secondary．Sarah Vaughan, Bessie Smith, Ella Fitzgerald — those big, romantic queens of jazz music wouldn’t make it in today’s music industry, and that’s a shame．We need to teach young people about the alternatives．
【小题3】______________________________
Around the world people make music that, if you listen carefully to it, sounds a little like the cadence of their language．I’d call it folk music．When I’m away from home, I make a point of listening to regional folk music, not what’s on the radio．
【小题4】_______________________________
The same music is on the radio all over the world, and the American sound is overwhelming．Even the pop music that’s produced and created in foreign countries has that American beat, which underscore funk．As a musician, I’m not interested in hearing recycled versions of the same genre over and over．Any music that doesn’t have a development section just isn’t interesting to me．
【小题5】_________________________________
The music press has so much to introduce these days, and jazz is just a small fraction of it．Because some people are intimidated by jazz, they don’t cover it unless it’s a big name．New jazz musicians don’t get much of break．A lot of editors don’t say anything about jazz these days unless it’s Marsalis．That’s a shame．What VH1 is doing with their Save the Music campaign is phenomenal．They’re getting all these instruments out to needy kids．It’s the kind of thing all networks should be doing．
