He was childlike. But in 1993, a thirteen year old boy accused (控告) him of child molestation (骚扰)．The case was settled out of court. Later, another accusation led to a criminal trial. But four years ago this month a jury cleared him of all charges.

Music is often thought of as “easy” or “play time”， but it's not that at all.Music plays a very important part in our education.
Students who learn music learn a lot of music history at school.This includes “modes (调式)”， which were used in churches during the development of music.They are still used today.Students learn about the historical events that were taking place when the music they play was written.They learn what the music was used for.So much of our culture is in music and has been for centuries.
Music also helps with science.Students use science to help them discover what sounds good together and what doesn't.Students also need science to understand something called the “overtone series”， which is about how music is produced by vibration (颤动) and why.
Students learn a lot about languages.Many songs are written in other languages, including ancient ones.Students must learn to translate these works to understand what they are singing about.Some songs are famous poems or short works set to music.
Students learn a huge amount of coordination (协调)through music, so parts of the body can work better together.Students must use fine motor skills in order to play an instrument.Singers and players must learn breath control and be in good shape to play.
Students learn about art.Some famous pieces were written about important works of art, and students learn about the artists and styles as they're playing the music.
Music education also brings higher thinking to our children.It allows them to think about complex patterns (How can I make my part sound better？How do this music and these different parts fit together？)．Students have to know absolutely what every other musician does at all times.In that way, it develops teamwork.
As one can see, music is very important to education besides bringing us fun.

We got Joey from an animal rescue center. As long as I saw his big sad eye looking at me from behind the bars of his cage, I knew he was for us. His favourite activity was going out for a walk. When he sees me getting the dog lead, he rushes outside, wags his tail and jumping with joy. She is always full of energy and enjoys running after rabbits. The really usual thing about him is that, although he was ill treated before and in a result, he had a horrible scar near one of his eyes, he never loses his temper.

A
The arts, especially music, should be part of every school's lessons at every grade level.Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience.They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions.People develop all these skills when they learn music.Making music also lets children use their imagination.It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas.
Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do.In a music program, children can be part of a band instead of joining a gang (团伙)．Parents can enjoy listening to their children's music instead of seeing them glued_to_a computer or TV screen.In a school band, students get to be part of a team.They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music.

“If music is the medicine of the soul, let it play on，” said a famous person. I think he said so probably because he had got some help from music. Music has some strange functions. Medical scientists have found that a person who feels stressed can actually listen to a certain kind of music and become relaxed.
Researchers said that since stress comes as a result of some events in life such as starting a new family, starting a new business and starting a new job, one can actually listen to good music and feel good because good music touches humans in a positive way. Music helps you forget these events that make you worried and remember the important events that once happened in your life.
Depression (抑郁症) is a disease caused by stress, smoking, social problems, etc. Depression is also caused by difficulties such as failure in business. Depression may bring us weakness, headaches and loss of concentration. Good music makes one remember happy moments or days. If you play music about love, it makes you feel like falling in love again though you may have had several upset experiences. And such good feelings make you healthy.
Anxiety is another health problem that can be controlled by music. Anxiety is side effects of some major health problems such as liver cancer and breast cancer. Good music makes you feel relaxed and relieves the pain caused by these diseases and you will feel better. Good music also makes you sleep better, and you need to know that sleep puts your body in a healthy condition. Good sleep takes away the effects of stress, depression and anxiety from a person.

Most people want to know how things are made.They honestly admit, however, that they hardly know a thing when it comes to understanding how a piece of music is made.Where a composer begins, how he manages to keep going — in fact, how and where he leans his trade — all are covered_in_complete_darkness.The composer, in short, is a man of mystery (神秘)．
One of the first things the common man wants to know about is the part inspiration(灵感) which plays in a composer's works.He finds it difficult to believe that composers are not much interested in that question.Writing music is as natural for the composer as eating or sleeping for all.Music is something that the composer happens to have been born for.
The composer, therefore, does not say to himself: “Do I feel inspired？” He says to himself: “Do I feel like working today？” And if he feels like working, he does.It is more or less like saying to himself: “Do I feel sleepy？” if you feel sleepy, you go to sleep.If you don't feel sleepy, you stay up.If the composer doesn't feel like working, he doesn't work.It's as simple as that.
语篇解读：本篇文章指出作曲家作曲应该是在有灵感时才可以创作，这就像吃饭、睡觉一样，是一个自然的过程。

C．should like to talk about inspiration

Woody Guthrie is best known as an American folk (民间的) musician, whose musical works include hundreds of political, traditional, children's songs, and ballads.He was born in America in 1912.Like many people, he left for California hunting for work when he grew up.There many people could find work only on farms gathering fruit or crops.These workers often lived in camps with poor conditions.Woody visited these farm workers.He played his guitar and sang songs he wrote that described the conditions at the camps he was visiting.
Later, he left California for New York City in 1940.There he met Alan Lomax, an expert on America's traditional music, who collected and recorded traditional American folk music.When he heard Woody sing, Lomax knew he had found a true singer of American folk music.Alan Lomax recorded many of Woody's songs.The songs told stories of people who had lost their land and received a lot of praise from musicians.In his most famous song, This Land is Your Land, he believed America should be a place that belongs to rich and poor people alike.
One day, while Woody and his wife were away, a fire started in their house.Their daughter Cathy Ann was severely burned.She died the next day.Woody was deeply hurt by her death.He remembered how his sister had died the same way.He was never the same after Cathy Ann died.He had trouble earning money and began drinking alcohol (酒)．And he had sudden attacks of uncontrollable shaking.When he was forty years old, doctors said that he had Hunting ton's chorea (亨丁顿舞蹈症), the same disease that had killed his mother.During his later years, in spite of his illness, Woody was regarded as a figurehead (名义领袖) in the folk movement, providing inspiration to a generation of new folk musicians.
Finally, he entered a hospital because he could no longer care for himself.He remained in the hospital until he died in 1967.

Ⅴ.阅读理解
The first ancient Olympic Games for which we still have written records were held in 776 BC. Coroebus won the only event at the Olympics. This made him the very first Olympic champion in history. Then they grew and continued to be played every four years. In 393 AD, the Roman emperor Theodosius Ⅰ， a Christian, announced to end the Games because of their pagan (异教的) influences.
About 1,500 years later, a young Frenchman named Pierre de Coubertin began their revival (恢复)．In 1892 Coubertin first brought forward his idea to revive the Olympic Games but failed.
Two years later, Coubertin organized a meeting with 79 delegates (代表) who represented nine countries. At this meeting he got what he wanted. All the delegates at the conference voted for the Olympic Games. They also decided to have Coubertin set up an international committee to organize the Games. This committee became the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Demetrious Vikelas from Greece was selected to be its first president. Athens was chosen for the revival of the Olympic Games and the planning was begun.
The very first modern Olympic Games opened in the first week of April, 1896. Since the Greek government had been unable to afford a stadium, a rich Greek architect，Georgios Averoff，donated one million drachmas (over $100,000) to repair the Panathenaic Stadium, originally built in 330 BC.
Since the Games were not well publicized internationally, contestants (选手) were not nationally chosen but rather came individually and at their own expense. Some contestants were tourists who happened to be in the area during the Games.

2．Who offered money to help the first modern Olympic Games
A．Demetrious Vikelas. B．Coroebus.
C．Pierre de Coubertin. D．Georgios Averoff.
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据第四段第二句可知，由于当时希腊政府财力不足，是富有的建筑师Georgios Averoff资助了第一届现代奥运会。
3．At the first modern Olympic Games, ________.
A．winners were given money as prize
B．IOC invited contestants to tour Greece
C．there were no strict rules for being a contestant
D．many countries chose some athletes to compete

4．Which of the following statements is TRUE
A．In 393 AD, the Games was canceled because of the religious reason.
B．Coubertin was voted to be the first president of the IOC.
