There are many reasons why I encourage people to travel, and I know that the experience will make one a better person.

I remember when I was traveling that I began to know the world better. The world is not just about me, my small town and home. Although you will meet different people from all over the world, you will realize that people are similar in their dreams, hopes, and feelings. Enjoy exploring the different cultures, and you will also find that people are different in some of the things they do and how they live. Once you understand their ways, it need not be strange or scary. Often we read stories about other cultures in books. Only when we visit their areas, do we find that those stories are something wrong.

One thing you may find out is that there are problems all over the world. We can not just get money to send to those areas and hope that will work them out. The world should get involved (干预）and help wherever there are problems. People everywhere should be given a chance. It is so easy to ignore (忽视）this if one does not travel and explore. One can look around and see that so many people have many challenges worse than ours. One can realize that sometimes our biggest problems are not that big after all.

On your journey you will meet lots of new friends. Talking to strangers and finding about their lives in a great way to spend your time. You will certainly be more confident after having to cope with problems and make many decisions along the way. When you travel, you have to be on your own in some situation. You will surprise yourself by how well you can do that. All your special experiences could make an interesting book to read. It would be filled with all your adventures and special memories.

Traveling around and seeing so much happening in the world around us is a wonderful experience. If we could all just travel a little more and share our experiences, we would all be better people and the world would be a better place. 76. From Paragraph 2, we can learn that ______.

A teacher says music education in school has kind of turned into amusement.Classroom lessons focus heavily on pop while understanding the classical(古典的) art form and its history should be paid attention to.

A professor in music and music education at the University of NSW, Robert Walker .argues that all students should study the works of Western classical composers such as Haydn and Tchaikovsky.

Professor Walker says students are missing out on an important part of the culture heritage(遗产)because they fail to study classical music ,as the little music that children learn at school is mainly pop.The lack(缺乏)of music teaching is serious,especially in government schools where there are not enough specialist(专业的) music teachers.

A national review in 2005 made 15 suggestions ,but Professor Walker said it still failed to deal with the lack of classical music taught in schools.

“I’m not against pop music, but it’s very simple and not difficult either to play or to sing,” Professor Walker says.”But classical music is challenging and although it is part of America’s culture heritage ,most children learn it only through Hollywood films.”

“At least children ought to know what’s happening in Western culture .It’s part of culture heritage,”he says.”Asian students know more about Western classical music than most children in the West.”

Professor Walker has taught music and music teachers in Britain , Canada and Australia and is a former chief(首席的) examiner for the International Baccalaureate and a former chairman of the research committee of the International Society for Music Education.Professor Walker says no school curriculum(课程) in Australia lists a piece of music that children should study,such as the Mendelssohn’s.

“This lack of standard texts means that some children can be brought up totally

on Western classical music,others on Elvis Presley,or on any music the teacher wants to teach .The situation should be changed as soon as possible,”he says. 81. What’s the problem in music education in Professor Walker’s opinion?

A. Children know nothing about their culture heritage. B. Classical music …… 此处隐藏：9377字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
