Last year, I traveled to Dalian by train alone. I knew it would be a long train trip, so I bought two magazines. I thought they could help me pass the boring time on the train.

While I was reading, the man beside me said hello to me politely. I didn’t greet him because my mother had told me not to talk with strangers on the train. After ten minutes, the man asked me where I was going. I thought it was impolite to say nothing, so I answered him. Then he started talking with me. He told me that he could get a lot information about a person by looking into his or her eyes. Being interested in what he said, I asked him to say something about me.

I was surprised when I heard his guesses about me. Most of what he said was right. I do have a younger brother and he really brings my parents many problems. He also told me that my parents were probably in poor health. How amazing! His guesses were pretty right. Seeing my surprising expression, the man was very happy and proud. Before leaving each other, I asked him his name. He told me that he was Peter.

After the eight-day trip I returned home. I told my brother about Peter. Hearing what I had described, my brother laughed. “How stupid you are! How could a stranger know so much about you? Peter just played a joke on you. He is one of my friends, and he has seen you on a photo of our family,” he said.

1. It is a special language
2. So music education is necessary for all students
3. He introduced jazz style into his music.
4. In fact, music education is much more necessary than people usually think

E. Music provides a kind of ability to know the world in a different way

How important is music? Many people usually think that listening to music is nice but not very important. It is often only thought to be entertainment, but not the first choice for education. This opinion is wrong.        36      .

Music tells us who we are. Music reflects the musicians’ thoughts and ideas, and the social environment they came from. For example, just as Mozart’s music represents a lifestyle, rock music also represents a lifestyle. George Gershwin’s music is another example.        37      .

       38      . Science explains how the sun rises and sets. Music explores emotional(情绪) meanings. Such as sadness and happiness. People need every possible way to learn about our world.

Music shows people’s thoughts.        39      . We can “talk” to each other and exchange our thoughts in this amazing way. Through the language we express our feelings, discoveries, ideas and hopes. All of these can be shared with others. When we do not let our children receive a good music education, we take them away from the meanings that music expresses. Our children are short of a wonderful part in their

lives.      40   .
