Passage 1
A man came home from work late,tired,finding his five year old son waiting for him at the door. “Daddy,how much money do you make an hour?” “If you must know,I make $20 an hour.” “Oh.” the little boy replied,with his head down.He thought for a moment,looked up and said,“Daddy,could you lend me $10?” The father was furious,“If you asked for the money to buy a toy or some other rubbish,then go straight to your room and think about why you are being so selfish!” The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.After about an hour or so,the father calmed down,and started to think,“Maybe he really needs to buy something and he didnt really ask for money very often.” So he went to the little boys room. “Sorry! Maybe I was too hard on you just now.” said the man,“Heres $10.” “Oh,thank you,Daddy!” he said happily.Then,the boy took out some coins.When the father found that the boy already had money,he got angry again. “Why do you want more money since you already have some?” the father shouted angrily. “Because I didnt have enough,but now I do.” the little boy replied,“Daddy,I have $20 now.Can I buy an hour of your time?

Passage 2
When students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance,the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list.Music is nice,people seem to say,but not important.Too often it is viewed as mere entertainment,but certainly not an education priority(優(yōu)先).This view is shortsighted.In fact,music education is beneficial and important for all students. Music tells us who we are.Because music is an expression of the beings who create it,it reflects their thinking and values,as well as the social environment it came influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions.Music expresses our character and values.It gives us identity as a society. Music provides a kind of perception(感知)that cannot be acquired any other way.Science can explain how the sun rises and sets.The arts explore the emotive(情感的)meaning of the same phenomenon.We need every possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: No one way can get it all. The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate as mathematical and scientific symbols.They are ways we human beings “talk” to each other.They are the language of civilization through which we express our fears,our curiosities,our hungers,our discoveries,our hopes.The arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others.When we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music,we take away from them the meanings that music expresses. Science and technology do not tell us what it means to be human.The arts do.Music is an important way we express human suffering,celebration,the meaning and value of peace and love. So music education is far more necessary than people seem to realize.
