Make some noise on May 7 for Music Monday.People in the U.S. and Canada will be celebrating the day by singing and playing musical instruments together.
Music Monday is the first day of National Wanna Play Music Week,which runs from May 7 to 13.The National Association of Music Merchants(NAMM) organizes the weeklong celebration every year.This marks the seventh year the organization is teaming up with Canada’s Coalition for Music Education(CME),the group that started Music Monday.
“It’s a day to fill the skies with music and bring young people together in song,” CME Executive Director Holly Nimmons said.
The CME started Music Monday in 2005.It is held every year on the first Monday of May.It was created to help people realize the importance of music education programs in schools and in communities.The day also celebrates the benefits of playing music for people of all ages.
NAMM researches the effects of music on children.They found that playing music has positive effects on thinking skills and on confidence.It also teaches selfdiscipline(自律) and helps kids bond with their peers(同龄人).“Learning musical skills can also help in your studies of other subjects,such as math,reading and language,” Lora Bodmer,who works at NAMM,said.
Their studies show that music can also help people form friendships and connect with different groups.Nimmons says anyone can join in on the day,not just those who are musically gifted.“I think that we all have the music in us,and it’s a matter of confidence,” she said.“Sing with other people or beat drums,just enjoy the music.”
Participants can turn on the radio to join the fun.Each year a song is assigned to Music Monday.This year the song is “Tomorrow Is Coming” by Luke Doucet.The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation(CBC) will be playing the tune at 1 p.m. Eastern Time.People across North America will play or sing the song at the exact same time.The performance is meant to connect people through melody(旋律).More than 700,000 students took part in the concert last year.
Schools,afterschool programs,organizations,groups and individuals throughout the U.S. and Canada can all participate in Music Monday.Students who would like to share in the celebration should let their teachers or organization leaders know.But NAMM also encourages people to pick up any instrument and play anytime on the day.

French novelist Jules Verne (1828~1905) is often called the father of science fictions.Although he was not a great traveller himself,his characters journeyed to the moon (in From Earth to Moon),Under the sea (in Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea),into a volcano (in A Journey to the Centre of the Earth),around the world (in Around the World in Eighty Days) and to many other places.
Jules Verne was born in the French city of Nantes in 1828.When he was a boy he ran away from home to work on a ship.However,his father soon found him and brought him home.After that he decided that any future travel he did would be in books.In 1847,his father sent Jules to Paris to study to be a lawyer.Even though he was busy writing,Verne passed his exams in 1849 with high marks.
When Jules told his father he did not want to be a lawyer,his father was very angry.He stopped sending his son any money,so Jules had to earn a living by his writing.Over the next few years he wrote many stories and plays which brought him only a little money.Then,in 1856,he met Honorine de Viane,a rich,young widow with two children.The couple married the next year and their only child Michel was born in 1862.
After his marriage,Verne worked as a businessman in Paris.However,he was not very successful at his job and spent most of his time writing books and doing research for the next one.In 1863,he published his novel Five Weeks in a Balloon and in the following year he published A Journey to the Centre of the Earth which brought him fame.His books became so popular and earned him so much money that he was able to leave his job and work full time on his writing.
In his lifetime,Jules Verne wrote more than 50 books and he became a rich man.Many of this imaginative novels have been turned into films.

D.he would stop writing about future travels |
Which book can be considered as a turning point in Jules Verne’s life?
A.Five Weeks in a Balloon. |
B.A Journey to the Centre of the Earth. |
C.From Earth to Moon. |
D.Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. |
What can we infer from the passage?
A.Jules Verne was appreciated by film makers. |

How many times have you got upset because someone wasn’t doing his job,because your child isn’t behaving?How many times have you been irritated (恼怒的) when you’ve planned something carefully and things didn’t go as you’d hoped?
This kind of anger and irritation happens to all of us—it’s part of the human experiences.
One thing that irritates me is when people talk during a movie,or cut me off in traffic.Actually,I have a lot of these little annoyances—don’t we all?And it isn’t always easy to find peace when you’ve become upset or irritated.
Let me tell you a little secret to finding peace of mind:see_the_glass_as_already_broken.
See,the cause of our stress,anger and irritation is that things don’t go the way we like,the way we expect them to.Think of how many times this has been true for you.And so the solution is simple:expect things to go wrong,expect things to be different than we hoped or planned,expect the unexpected to happen.And accept it.
One quick example:on our recent trip to Japan,I told my kids to expect things to go wrong—they always do on a trip.I told them,“See it as part of the adventure.”
And this worked like a charm.When we inevitably (不可避免地) took the wrong train on a foreignlanguage subway system,or when it rained on the day we went to Disney Sea,or when we took three trains and walked 10 blocks only to find the National Children’s Castle closed on Mondays...they said,“It’s part of the adventure!” And it was all OK—we didn’t get too bothered.
So when the nice glass you bought inevitably falls and breaks some day,you might get upset.But things will be different,if you see the glass as already broken,from the day you get it.You know it’ll break some day,so from the beginning,see it as already broken.Be a timetraveler,or someone with timetraveling vision,and see the future of this glass,from this moment until it inevitably breaks.And when it breaks,you won’t be upset or sad—because it was already broken,from the day you got it.And you’ll realize that every moment you have with it is precious.

Going green seems to be a fad(时尚)for a lot of people these days.Whether that is good or bad,we can’t really say,but for the two of us,going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.
On April 22,2011,we decided to go green every single day for an entire year.This meant doing 365 different green things,and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond the easy things.Rather than recycle and reduce our energy,we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.
With the idea of going green every single day for a year,Our Green Year started.My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment.We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.
Over the course of Our Green Year,we completely changed our lifestyles.We now shop at organic(有机的) stores.We consume less meat,choosing green food.We have greatly reduced our buying we don’t need.We have given away half of what we owned through websites.Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice,with no chemical cleaners.We make our own butter,enjoying the smell of homemade fresh bread.In our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.
Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year.We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others.We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet. (2013·辽宁,B)
