    I read an interesting article recently about how music played an important role in helping two elders in a nursing home find each other.They were listening to a waltz on the radio and began dancing with each other!
    Music is around us all the time-it's on the radio，television，and in movies and commercials （商業(yè)廣告）.Music can soothe you and make you happy or sad.I hear music in grocery stores，in lifts and just about everywhere I go.
    I grew up with music.My mom used to do housework listening to the FM radio when it was all classical music.My dad liked the dance bands that included Sammy Kaye，Guy Lombardo，Glenn Miller and Jan Garber.Many of these bands broadcast live on the radio from dance halls in Chicago.My great grandfather，Joseph Bapst，played in a brass band in the 1870s and '80s.My great uncle，George Keller，played the trumpet（小號） in the band，as did my dad and mother.My great aunt taught piano and had a degree in music.So I really didn't have a choice when it came to music and a career.For me，it was music!
    My love was marches（進行曲） and band music.American March King John Philip Sousa said that a good march could make a man with a wooden leg get up and march!
    In 1948，the Cities Service Band of America went on radio and played a half-hour live band concert every Monday night at 8：30 on NBC.Conductor Paul Lavalle led a band made up of the best musicians in the New York City area.In 1949，I asked my dad to get a television set.He said，"We don't need one."
    Well，at the end of the 1949 season，the Cities Service Band announced that beginning in September，they were going to appear on television every Monday night.My dad bought a TV the next week!Music has been a great and wonderful part of my life-and it still is.

  • 1．Sidney Keys，14-year-old，has started a youth-led book club program，with the support and help of his mom，to help empower both himself and many other boys with mental or physical problems through literature.
       Keys' idea to create Books N Bros was born from his own setbacks and struggles. "I used to have a really bad stutter and perform badly in school and I would get laughed at for it，" Sidney Keys，the founder of the book club Books N Bros said. "Reading was kind of my escape from my stutter because in my head I was able to imagine things and play out all the events clearly." He said， "I wanted to start up Books N Bros so that I could talk to other people，especially boys，about books I love in a relaxing way because it's like a brotherhood."
       The reading club that he started at just 10 years old now has over 250"bros"aged 7 to 13 from the U.S.and Canada，most of whom are changing actively and positively.Marvel's Hero Project，which reveals the remarkable，positive change young men make in their communities across the country and turns them into superheroes，selected Keys to be featured in the Disney series.
       "I always wanted to read books that had characters that looked like me，but now I see a comic book with me in it，" Keys said delightedly. "It's really awesome，especially when I hear my friends and teachers call me my superhero name at school."
       As for the future of Books N Bros，Keys and his mom hope to expand the programs reach throughout the country. "Getting Books N Bros in schools across America，we don't want transportation to be an issue for getting that physical brotherhood and bond.It just benefits so many people，and it keeps me going，" Keys explained.

  • 3．At 1，345 meters above sea level，Ben Nevis is definitely not the world's most difficult mountain to climb.But things get considerably tricky if instead of hiking shoes you put on a pair of 5-inch high heels，especially if you're a guy.One English teenager recently proved that it was not impossible.
       Ben Conway，a 19-year-old art student from London，recently took up the challenge as a way to stand out in an application for a scholarship for the School of Communication Arts in Brixton.He started his unusual high-heel climb at 8 a.m.，on June 27，and was joined by Callum MacKenzie Allen，a friend from his art foundation year，who videotaped the whole thing for a two-minute video that served as his application project.The whole climb took five hours and wasn't the smoothest experience.
       Halfway up Ben Navis，one of his shoes broke，so he had to tape the shoes to his feet to make sure they stayed on.The weather didn't make it easy for him either，as he claimed that it rained pretty much the whole time，and he had to go against 40 to 50 miles an hour winds.Due to these difficult conditions，Ben and his friend had to turn back after reaching 900 meters up the mountain.
       Apart from providing a unique art school application project，the high-heel climb also allowed the 19-year-old to raise some money for worthy causes，like Sal's Shoes，which provides footwear for barefoot children around the world.
       "Raising money for charity brings happiness to people's lives and if I can do something ridiculous and bring someone happiness，then that's what it's all about"，Ben said.

    （1）What can replace the underlined word "tricky" in Paragraph 1？

    A．Pleasant.
    B．Boring.
    C．Tough.
    D．Smooth.
    （2）Why did Allen videotape the high-heel climb for Ben？

    A．To prove nothing is impossible.
    B．To record a special experience.
    C．To promote their friendship.
    D．To assist in Ben's application.
    （3）What does Paragraph 3 focus on？

    A．The difficulties in the climb.
    B．The climbing route.
    C．The terrible weather.
    D．The unexpected incident.
    （4）What can best describe Ben's story？

    A．Puzzling.
    B．Inspiring.
    C．Exciting.
    D．Frightening.
