23、rned a masters degree, reports CBS News reporter Katie Couric. Music had changed his life. He wanted to do the same for the children of Haiti.Joseph built a school in Port-au-Prince nearly 20 years ago. He was on the third floor when suddenly “It was like boom boom boom and everything just opened,”

24、Joseph said. “And the next thing I knew I was on the ground.”Blind since birth, Joseph tried to feel his way out, but was pinned（夹）beneath heavy concrete（混凝土）. He remained trapped for 18 hours. He prays that his new wife, seven months pregnant（怀孕的）, will be found.He is now being treated at Miamis Ja

25、ckson Memorial Hospital for two injured legs and an arm.Joseph wonders if hell ever play the violin again. He can feel sensation（知觉）in his fingertips. He said, “If you were to give me a violin and if I didnt have to fold the fingers, I would be able to play.”Josephs daughter Victoria spent three ter

26、rifying days unsure of her fathers fate. For her, having him home is the sweetest music.“Can you imagine your dad not being able to play the violin?” Couric asked.“No, I cant,” Victoria Joseph said. “But I will love him all the same if he cant.”Romel doesnt know how many of his 300 students died in

27、the quake.

31、 studentsC. Haiti earthquake: a story of a music teacherD. How did some Haiti earthquake victims surviveBMany children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance. Parents often give their children an amount of money that they may spend as they wish. The purpose is to let the children l

32、earn from experience at an early age when financial mistakes are not very costly. A child may receive an allowance each week or each month. The amount is not so important. But parents should make clear what the child is expected to pay for with the money.At first, young children may spend all of the

33、ir allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget. Parents should not offer more money until the next allowance is to be given. Older children may be responsible enough to budget larger costs like those for clothing. The

34、 object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and saving. Many people who have written on the subject say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life. Paying children to do extra work around the home,

35、however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works. Allowances give children a chance to experience three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving it to organizations. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can s

36、ave it. Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice: you have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their allowance can also open the door to future saving and investing. Many banks offer free savings accounts for young people with small am

37、ounts of money.56. The functions of allowances given to children are the following EXCEPT _.

Allowance helps teach children early about money. D. Parents should allow children to spend money as they wish.

39、 59. How many advantages of saving has the passage mentioned? A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 560. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Children are advised to buy anything they wish to with the allowance. B. Parents should offer children more money if they spend all of their allowance soon

40、 after they get it. C. It can be useful to pay children to do extra work around the home. D. It is unnecessary for the children to save part of the allowance.CIm glad to find this comment which has some sort of support in this quest（寻求）I have to eat raw（未煮熟的）foods.
