| I love music, but we hear too much of it in today's society. I mean, have you tried 1 an insurance company lately? If you are kept 2 , you'll be forced to 3 some country or easy-listening type drivel (废话). Call your doctor's office, and the same thing 4 . How many times do you want to hear Eine Kleine Nacht's 5 in the daytime or "Winter" from Vivadi's Four Seasons in the spring? 6 , I've always thought that Handel's music was 7 and Vivadi's music was dull next to Handel's. I don't know how all this force-fed music got 8 . I suppose it was the background music in elevators. A few years ago, the governor of Georgia got the 9 that classical music was good for a 10 brain development. He actually got the legislature to appropriate (拨专款) enough money to give every new mother a 11 music tape to take home with her. And you know 12 was probably on it? Eine Kleine Nacht's music and "Winter". I'll bet that those 13 have done more to make babies 14 classical music than all the music appreciation 15 ever taught. And how about when you make a business call from you 16 and are forced to hear music while you have to wait to be 17 ? You can't put the call on speakerphone, because the 18 would disturb the people around you, 19 you're just left there holding the phone. You can't 20 , because the music is blasting in your ear. I love music-but enough is enough. | ||||

| Cities with high levels of homeownership-in the range of 75%, like Detroit and St. Lous -had on average considerably lower levels of economic activity and much lower wages and incomes. Far too many people in financial problems are trapped in homes they can't sell, unable to move on to new centers of opportunity. The cities and regions with the lowest levels of homeownership-in the range of 55% to 60% like Los Angeles and New York-had healthier economies and higher incomes. They also had higher levels of happiness and well-being. I was shocked to read these interesting points that Richard Florida made in his recent article. Let me try to understand. The people in Detroit and St. Louis are less happy than the people in New York, and Los Angeles. And, the reason is because of home ownership rates? First, to compare them to New York City (the economic capital of the world), Los Angeles (the entertainment capital of the world) seems unfair. Most people in almost any other city in the world might be less happy! Next, let's try a different way of determining whether renters are happier than homeowners. Why don't we ask them? Fannie Mae's National Housing Survey 2010 reported: 75% of current renters believe owning a home makes more sense. 67% plan to buy a home at some point in the future. When they asked current renters for the major reason to buy a house, these were their answers (they could pick several answers): 78% said it was a good place to raise children. 75% said because they would feel safe. 70% said because you have control your own space. If you believe renters are happier, you would also have to believe the majority enjoy living in a less safe environment, which wouldn't be a good place to raise children and would be a place where they have less control of their space. |
| 1.Which of the following is a fact? |
| A. People in Los Angeles earn high incomes because of its low homeownership rate. B. New York's low homeownership rate increases people's happiness levels. C. Detroit's high level of homeownership causes its economic problems. D. St. Louis has a higher level of homeownership than Los Angeles. |
| 2. In his article, Richard Florida tried to express that ________. |
| A. people in Los Angeles are happier than those in St. Louis B. Renting a house is better than owning a house C. Detroit's economy is healthier than New York's economy D. New York and Los Angeles are happiest cities |
| 3.The writer believes that New York Cities and Los Angeles________. |
| A. pay employee highest wages in America B. benefit from low levels of homeownership C. are leading cities across the globe D. are best American cities to live in |
| 4. From Fannie Mae's survey report, we can know that________. |
| A. paying rent makes more sense B. most homeowners plan to sell their houses C. most renters prefer to become homeowners D. parents need to buy a house for their children |
| 5.According to the passage, current renters' reasons to buy a house are the follows except _______. |
| A. to have a good place to raise children B. to live in a safer environment C. to make money D. to have control of their own space |

| The Beijing government has set out to recruit thousands of university graduates to work as junior officials in rural areas to both improve rural administration and ease the city's employment problems. The government plans to recruit 3,000 university graduates this year, 1,000 more than last year, to work as assistants to village heads or Party secretaries in suburban areas. People interested in jobs in Beijing's rural villages and townships can submit applications to the Beijing Municipal Personnel Bureau or online at www. Bjbys.com from February 1 through March 15. "We hope university graduates will seize this opportunity to use their knowledge in rural villages and to start their careers," Sun Zhenyu, deputy director of Beijing Personnel Bureau, told Xinhua News Agency. The government has promised successful candidates a monthly salary of 2,000 yuan( $ 250) in the first year, 2,500 yuan ($ 320) the second year and 3,000 yuan ($ 385) the third year, provided their performance is up to the required standards, Sun said. Wang Lina, who graduated from Beijing Union University last year, was one of the first graduates to find work in the city's countryside. After majoring in industrial and commercial administration, Wang served as the assistant to the village head of Ertiaojie Village in suburban Beijings Pinggu District. For one project, Wang contacted people at the Beijing Academy of Agricultural Sciences and arranged for the local farmers to receive training in strawberry planting. Her efforts paid off. The village had a plentiful harvest of organic strawberries earlier this year. Nationwide, about 150,000 university graduates found employment in rural areas last year, according to figures provided by the Ministry of Education. The ministry predicts that 4. 95 million students will graduate from universities across the country this year, 820,000 more than last year. About 1.4 million of them are unlikely to find jobs when they graduate. In Beijing, a record 200,000 people are expected to graduate from university this year. Less than half of them are expected to be offered jobs, according to the personnel bureau. |

| It had been some time since Jack had seen the old man. College, career, and life itself got in the way. In fact, Jack moved clear across the country in pursuit of his dreams. There, in the rush of his busy life, Jack had little time to think about the past and often no time to spend with his wife and son. He was working on his future, and nothing could stop him. Over the phone, his mother told him, "Mr. Belser died last night. The funeral is Wednesday." Memories flashed through his mind like an old newsreel as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days. "Jack, did you hear me?" "Oh, sorry, Mom. Yes, I heard you. It's been so long since I thought of him. I'm sorry, but I honestly thought he died years ago," Jack said. "Well, he didn't forget you. Every time I saw him he'd ask how you were doing. He'd reminisce(回 忆) about the many days you spent over 'his side of the fence' as he put it," Mom told him. "I loved that old house he lived in," Jack said. "You know, Jack, after your father died, Mr. Belser stepped in to make sure you had a man's influence in your life," she said. "He's the one who taught me carpentry. I wouldn't be in this business if it weren't for him. He spent a lot of time teaching me things he thought were important… Mom, I'll be there for the funeral," Jack said. Busy as he was, he kept his word. Jack caught the next flight to his hometown. Mr. Belser's funeral was small and uneventful. He had no children of his own, and most of his relatives had passed away. The night before he had to return home, Jack and his Mom stopped by to see the old house next door one more time, which was exactly as he remembered. Every step held memories. Every picture, every piece of furniture… Jack stopped suddenly. "What's wrong, Jack?" his Mom asked. "The box is gone," he said. "What box?" Mom asked. "There was a small gold box that he kept locked on top of his desk. I must have asked him a thousand times what was inside. All he'd ever tell me was 'the thing I value most'," Jack said. It was gone. Everything about the house was exactly how Jack remembered it, except for the box, He figured someone from the Belser family had taken it. "Now, I'll never know what was so valuable to him," Jack said sadly. Returning to his office the next day, he found a package on his desk. The return address caught his attention. "Mr. Harold Belser" it read. Jack tore open the package. There inside was the gold box and an envelope. Jack's hands shook as he read the note inside. "Upon my death, please forward this box and its contents to Jack Bennett. It's the thing I valued most in my life. " A small key was taped to the letter. His heart racing, and tears filling his eyes, Jack carefully unlocked the box. There inside he found a beautiful gold pocket watch. Running his fingers slowly over the fine cover, he opened it. Inside he found these words carved: "Jack, Thanks for your time! Harold Belser. " " Oh, My God! This is the thing he valued most…Jack held the watch for a few minutes, then called his assistant and cleared his appointments for the next two days. "Why?" his assistant asked. "I need some time to spend with my son," he said. |
