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, it's important that students have a joyful experience with music. The two have worked together for almost 20 years. This year alone, they've 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.” Jernigan's 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 sit-down, 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. 語(yǔ)篇解讀：兩個(gè)音樂(lè)愛好者的工作是為學(xué)生修理樂(lè)器，他們樂(lè)此不疲，享受著工作的樂(lè)趣。 1．What's the job of West and Jernigan at school?

That all depends on who you ask. There are several well-respected 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. U．S. News & World Report ranks colleges nationally and by region and type, so large national universities, like Harvard and Princeton, don't 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 student-faculty 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 Who's Who in America, salary information for graduated from Payscale.com, average student loan debt and default rates, and four-year 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 school's rank, it's important for students to decide what they're really looking for in a college — and they shouldn't wait until the last minute to start their search. They have to do the hard homework of understanding the cost, location, activities... listening to people's 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, tree-lined 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. There's simply no place to accept every applicant.

They say that, a hundred years from now, we will have used up most of the earth's 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 world's 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, pyramid-shaped 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.

The pessimistic opinions ●The earth's resources will be (2)______out of. ●Seas will be polluted badly and no fish to eat. ●People will have to wear masks because of bad air (3)______. ●As a result of increasing population, the countryside will be used for housing with no farmland (4)______.

On one side stand those who see clothes dryers as a waste of energy and a major polluter of the environment. As a result, they are turning to clotheslines as part of the “what-I-can 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 U．S. to ban outdoor clotheslines, because clothesline drying also tends to lower home value in the neighborhood. This had led to a Right-to-Dry Movement that is calling for laws to be passed to protect people's right to use clotheslines. So far, only three states have laws to protect clothesline. Right-to-Dry supporters argue that there should be more. Matt Reck, 37, is the kind of eco-conscious 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 don't 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 can't 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 drying Two sides Details Support it Against it Should be encouraged Should 2.________ 3.________ a.4.__________ to look at b．in view of 5.____________ a.reminding people of 6.________ b. housing prices will 7.________ Actions a.8.______ waste water b. to drying clothes in a line a. persuading HOAs to ban it b．9.________ clotheslines by calling the HOA up Results a. laws 10.________ in three states b．supported by environmentalists 答案：1.Opposite opinions　2.be banned　3.Reasons　4.wonderful/pleasant　5.global warming　6.poor neighborhood　7.fall　8.reusing　9.complaining　10.have been passed 111
