When something goes wrong with an instrument, Charles West and Larry Jernigan do the repairs. Both men approach their work with a passion (激情). For them, its important that students have a joyful experience with music.The two have worked together for almost 20 years. This year alone, theyve fixed about 450 instruments. Both men are musicians and music lovers, so learning to do repairs came naturally.“I have been a musician all my life，” says West. “I played in an orchestra here in the city. I majored in music in college. I played in an army band.”Jernigans musical interests are varied. “I was formerly trained in the piano and guitar. The alto sax and the flute, I picked up while working here.”In addition to fixing instruments, the two also go to schools to instruct teachers and students on how to make minor repairs on their own.West believes if children start early and stay involved with music, it enriches other areas of their lives. “I see that in other kids. I see it in myself. I have seen it hundreds of times and it works，” he says. “They learn teamwork. They learn patience and respect.”But West has concerns about the future of music in the electronic age.“This instant age has taken away from the sitdown, the patience. And to learn to play an instrument, it takes patience, it takes diligence and it takes time.”Being able to enjoy music on the job is one of the benefits of the job. Both men agree their best rewards are the students performances.语篇解读：两个音乐爱好者的工作是为学生修理乐器，他们乐此不疲，享受着工作的乐趣。1Whats the job of West and Jernigan at school?ATeaching music.BWriting music.CMaking musical instruments.DRepairing musical instruments.解析：选D细节理解题。根据第一段的第二句和第三句的内容可知两人的工作是修理乐器。2They love the job because they can _Aearn more moneyBlearn repair skillsCenjoy music Dwatch performances解析：选C细节理解题。第二段后半部分提到两人都是音乐爱好者，再结合最后一段的第一句可知他们喜欢这个工作是因为可以享受音乐。3Which of the following is true of the two men?AThey have fixed 450 instruments in the past 20 years.BThey can play and repair musical instruments.CJernigan used to play in an army band.DWest was trained to play the piano.解析：选B细节理解题。由第一段可知两人的工作是修理乐器，再结合第三段和第四段两人所说的话可知他们也能演奏。故B项正确。4According to West, what can people learn from music?ATeamwork and patience.BThe value of time.CThe truth of society.

That all depends on who you ask. There are several wellrespected college ranking experts out there, but their number one picks vary wildly, from West Point to Harvard University. If anyone is using the rankings as the only way to decide, that is wrong for the rankings. Here is what you need to know to use each of them well when considering college choices.The methods vary wildly. US. News & World Report ranks colleges nationally and by region and type, so large national universities, like Harvard and Princeton, dont appear on the same lists as smaller liberal arts colleges. The colleges themselves provide information including reputation surveys, admissions data, SAT and ACT scores, acceptance rates, faculty salaries, financial resources, class size, and studentfaculty ratios. Failure to fill out a survey completely (or having the survey completed by different people from year to year) can result in a change in rank. Rankings are generally stable over time.Forbes, which started ranking colleges in 2008, does not divide schools by size or region. Instead, 650 schools are ranked for Forbes based on student evaluations on RateMyProfessor.com, the number of graduates listed in Whos Who in America, salary information for graduated from Payscale.com, average student loan debt and default rates, and fouryear graduation rates, among other things.The Princeton Review offers up 62 different Top 20 lists instead of ranking schools in order from best to worst. The data comes from surveying 122，000 students at 376 colleges, The Princeton Review said in a statement, and their lists offer rankings on everything from class size, political activity to social life.Know what you want in a college.Before putting much weight into a schools rank, its important for students to decide what theyre really looking for in a college and they shouldnt wait until the last minute to start their search. They have to do the hard homework of understanding the cost, location, activities. listening to peoples advice about where students from that high school have gotten into.Consider the classes and degrees offered by each college do they fit your interests? What is the campus like do you want a city setting or a classic, treelined courtyard? If you can, visit several schools and talk to students what teaching style do the instructors have, how are the classrooms set up? And, last but not least, take a look at tuition, room, board, and fees, as well as typical financial aid packages which schools are affordable for your family?Top universities in any ranking list are probably the most competitive. It goes without saying that only a small number of students can get into the top 10. Students need to be realistic about their qualifications, and understand that, even if they are qualified, they still might not get in. The top 10 could be drawn from the top five percent of high school students or even less. Theres simply no place to accept every applicant.Title: How to use college (1)_wiselyIntroductionUniversities are ranked wildly (2)_on top lists.Methods of ranking collegesU.S. News & World Report by region and type with information provided by each college(3)_.

They say that, a hundred years from now, we will have used up most of the earths resources. We will have polluted our seas badly, and be unable to eat fish from them. We will have made the air so dirty that we will need to wear masks. The worlds population will have doubled, and we will have used all the countryside for housing; there will be no farmland left.Other people believe that Man adapts very easily. They have a different idea of the future. How, in their views, will people be living in a hundred years time?One architect believes that Man will move off the land. He suggests that the city of the future will be a huge, pyramidshaped building, which will be floating on the surface of the sea.As for oil, people will no longer need it: we will be heating our homes with power from the sun. And we will not be short of minerals, because there are plenty under our oceans. What will be in the shops in the year 3000? What will people be wearing? How will people be traveling? Scientists who make predictions about the future suggest that, by the year 3000, shops will no longer exist. Computers will have replaced them; and people will order goods from home.People will be wearing very light, thin clothes. By that time, scientists will have invented a fabric that keeps us cool in hot weather and warm in cold weather.As for travel, the experts say that most people will be using public transport. Electric cars will be traveling through the streets day and night. Anybody will be able to stop one and use it.TitleWhat Will Life Be (1)_in the Future？IntroductionThere are two opinions about the life in the future.The pessimistic opinionsThe earths resources will be (2)_out of.

As a result, they are turning to clotheslines as part of the “whatIcan do environmentalism.”On the other side are people who are against drying clothes outside, arguing that clotheslines are unpleasant to look at. They have persuaded Home Owners Associations (HOAs) access the US. to ban outdoor clotheslines, because clothesline drying also tends to lower home value in the neighborhood. This had led to a RighttoDry Movement that is calling for laws to be passed to protect peoples right to use clotheslines.So far, only three states have laws to protect clothesline. RighttoDry supporters argue that there should be more.Matt Reck, 37, is the kind of ecoconscious person who feeds his trees with bathwater and reuses water drops from his air conditioners to water plants. His family also uses a clothesline. But on July 9, 2007, the HOA in Wake Forest, North Carolina, told him that a dissatisfied neighbor had telephoned them about his clothesline. The Recks paid no attention to the warning and still dried their clothes on a line in the yard. “Many people say they are environmentally friendly but they dont take matters in their own hands，” says Reck. The local HOA has decided not to take any action, unless more neighbors come to them.North Carolina lawmakers are saying that banning clotheslines is not the right thing to do. But HOAs and housing businesses believe that clothesline drying reminds people of poor neighborhoods. They worry that if buyers think their future neighbors cant even afford dryers, housing prices will fall.Environmentalists say such worries are not necessary, and in view of global warming, that idea needs to change. As they say, “The clothesline is beautiful. Hanging clothes outside should be encouraged. We all have to do at least something to slow down the process of global warming.”Title：1._ in clothesline dryingTwo sidesDetailsSupport itAgainst itShould be encouragedShould 2._3._a.4._ to look at bin view of 5._a.reminding people of 6._ b. housing prices will 7._Actionsa.8._ waste waterb. to drying clothes in a linea. persuading HOAs to ban itb9._ clotheslines by calling the HOA upResultsa. laws 10._ in three statesbsupported by environmentalists答案：1.Opposite opinions2.be banned3.Reasons4.wonderful/pleasant5.global warming6.poor neighborhood7.fall8.reusing9.complaining10.have been passed111
