Evelyn Glennie was the first lady of solo percussion in Scotland. In an interview, she recalled how she became a percussion soloist (打擊樂器獨奏演員) in spite of her disability.
“Early on I decided not to allow the1of others to stop me from becoming a musician. I grew up on a farm in northeast Scotland and began2piano lessons when I was eight. The older I got, the more my passion (酷愛) for music grew. But I also began to gradually lose my3.Doctors concluded that the nerve damage was the4and by age twelve, I was completely deaf. But my love for music never
5me.”
“My6was to become a percussion soloist, even though there were none at that time. To perform, I7to ‘hear’ music differently from others. I play in my stocking feet and can8the pitch of a note (音調(diào)高低) by the vibrations (振動) I feel through my body and through my9.My entire sound world exists by making use of almost every10that I have.”
“I was11to be assessed as a musician, not as a deaf musician, and I applied to the famous Royal Academy of Music in London. No other deaf student had12this before and some teachers13my admission. Based on my performance, I was
14admitted and went on to15with the academy’s highest honours.”
“After that, I established myself as the first fulltime solo percussionist. I
16and arranged a lot of musical compositions since17had been written specially for solo percussionists.”
“I have been a soloist for over ten years.18the doctor thought I was totally deaf, it didn’t19that my passion couldn’t be realized. I would encourage people not to allow themselves to be20by others. Follow your passion; follow your heart. They will lead you to the place you want to go.”

Water and its importance to human life were the centre of the world’s attention last week. March 22 was World Water Day and 1the theme “Water for Life”.
There are more than one billion people in the world who live without2drinking water. The United Nations 3to cut this number in half by 2015.
Solving such a big problem seems like a(n)4challenge. But everyone, 5teenagers, can do something to help. A teenage girl in the US has set an example to the6of her age around the world.
Rene Haggerty, 13, was awarded the 2004 Gloria Barron Prize for her work— 7discarded(廢棄的) batteries(電池)which pollute water.
In 2003, Haggerty went on a field trip to the Great Lakes Science Centre in Ohio. There she saw an exhibit about how 8in old batteries harm the water of Lake Erie.
Haggerty learnt that9the batteries was an easy solution. “I think everybody can do it, because everyone 10batteries, and it can make a big difference.” With these words, she began to 11awareness in her area.
She12her county government and school board. She got permission to start a recycling programme in schools 13the public library, hospital, and churches. With the help from her family, friends and local waste-management14, she gathered containers, arranged transportation, and made a(n)15video.
Over the past two years, she collected four tons of batteries and drew the attention of officials, who were in charge of a battery recycling programme but had made 16progress.
When asked 17she feels like a hero, Haggerty is quite18. “Not really. Well, maybe for the fish I saved!”
Every year the Gloria Barron Prize is19to young Americans aged 8 to 18 who have shown leadership and courage in 20the public and the planet. Each year ten winners receive US $ 2,000 each, to help with their education costs or their public service work.

The waiter came hurrying up. Before I came downstairs I had prepared6 carefully for what I must7. I had looked three times in my dictionary to make sure8 “breakfast” really meant “breakfast”. I had tried to get the right9 and I had stood in the front of a mirror and twisted my mouth until it ached.
The waiter asked me 10I could not understand, but I spoke only my one prepared word “breakfast”. He looked at me in a11way, so I repeated it, still he did not understand.

The Price of a Dream
I grew up poor, living with my wonderful mother.We had little money but plenty of love and attention. I was1and energetic.I understood that no matter how poor a person was, he could still 2a dream.
My dream was to be a sportsman.3I was sixteen, I had started playing baseball. I could throw a ninety-mile-per-hour fastball and hit anything that moved on the football field. I was also4. My high-school coach was Ollie Jarvis, who not only believed in me, but taught me5to believe in myself.He6me the difference between having a dream and realizing the dream.One particular7with Coach Jarvis changed my life forever.
It was the summer between my junior and senior years, and a friend recommended (推薦) me for a summer job.This meant a chance for money in my pocket—money for a new bike and new clothes, and the8of savings for a house for my mother.Then I realized I would have to9summer baseball to deal with the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing.
When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as10as I expected him to be. “You have your whole life to work,” he said. “Your playing days are limited.You can’t11to waste them.” I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to think of the12that would explain13him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his 14in me.
“How much are you going to make at this job, son?” he asked. “Three twenty-five an hour,” I replied.
“Well,” he asked, “is $3.25 an hour the15of a dream?”
That simple question made it16to me the difference between17something right now and following a dream.I18myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was19by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play baseball, and was 20a $20,000 contract.In 2000, I bought my mother the house of my dream!

On receiving my learner driver license a couple of months ago, I started driving lessons straight away. In New Zealand, the 1driving age is 15.
However it wasn't 2 two days ago that Dad finally allowed me to drive on the motorway. Our 3 was Orewa, a seaside town about 60 kilometers away from my home in Auckland. That morning I 4 sure I had enough to drink and went to the toilet (廁所) about three times 5 we left. I thought I was totally 6 for the journey, but nothing could have prepared me for my family's 7. "Relax! Don't hold the steering wheel(方向盤) so 8. The car is going zigzag (彎彎曲曲的)," called a nervous voice from the 9. "Speed up. 70km/h isn't fast enough. You are holding up the traffic," another voice ordered from the seat next to mine.
How 10 ! My parents were really starting to get on my nerves. To satisfy them I sped up and within a second, an angry voice began to yell again. "Stop! 11! Are you crazy? ” Everything did not go fine until I pulled off the motorway and drove into the city, 12 the speed limit was only 50km/h.
My family seemed relieved (放心的) and 13 telling me what to do. They all looked out of the windows and enjoyed the scenery . 14, that silence didn't last very long. My mum suddenly cried out, "Look at those birds above us. 15 they lovely?"
How did she expect me to look up in the 16? As the driver I had to 17 . Who knows what would have happened if I had taken my eyes off the 18? Four hours later we drove home. This time the journey was much 19 than before as everyone else 20 fast asleep. So, I just took my time and enjoyed the drive.

The earliest men did not have much time for art; they faced many dangers, and hunting for food took1almost all their time . But after many thousands of years,2perhaps a million years or more, they became very good hunters, and3gave them a little free time which they could use for other things. A few of them began to paint on the walls of the caves4they lived. Many early artists painted animals5they were the most important things in their lives. Animals supplied6to keep them living, and skins to keep them7.
Like painters today, the8artists possibly painted for many9, Perhaps they wanted to give their cave a little brightness and color; perhaps they had a few special ideas which they could express most easily in a10and perhaps they11wanted to spend a little time in a pleasant way. Many of them12magic(巫術(shù))，and they often drew animals which they caught. They13that by drawing these things, they would make them really14.
In many parts of the world , people have15cave paintings. The earliest paintings16we know about are in Europe. Because of the17weather, the earliest men in Europe used the caves for18; in many warmer parts of the world, this was not necessary. We know a lot about the19of the Eurpopean paintings, and we believe that the earliest20were painted about thirty thousand years ago.

About a week ago, my 4yearold cousin and I were playing basketball at our local park. The1was warm, and many other children were outside2. As we played, I noticed a small group of boys3a smaller, skinnier, and possibly younger boy. They were calling him names and4pushed him to the ground and5dirt in his face. When I saw that, I grabbed my6by the hand and walked over to the7.
I stepped8them and the younger boy, and asked them9what this boy had done deserved10they were doing to him. They all11silently for a moment, and then the most amazing thing 12：one of the boys who hadn't said anything since I13stepped around the younger boy and helped him off the14and then apologized. He offered to let him play with them，15the boy quietly said “thank you” and refused, and then left there.
As I looked around, I16that there were dozens of other people at the park—some of them were17with children of their own—but no one else had stopped to help this boy. I felt18that the one of the boys was brave enough to stand up against his friends to help someone19， but I felt sad that no one else had even taken a second20. I couldn't help but think that those parents at the park would want someone to help their child in that situation, and yet they did nothing but stood by.
