How important is music？When they are asked this question，students and parents usually answer that music is nice，but not very important.It is often considered only as entertainment，but not the first choice for education.This opinion is shortsighted.In fact，music education is necessary and important for all students.
Music tells us who we are.Music reflects the creators' thinking and values，as well as the social environment it came from.For example，just as Mozart's music represents a lifestyle，rock music represents a lifestyle，too.The jazz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions.
Music provides a kind of ability to know the world in a different way.Science explains how the sun rises and sets.Music explores the emotive meanings.We need every possible way to discover and response to our world because there is no one way can get it all.
Music is a form of thought，as powerful as science.It is a way we human beings "talk" to each other.Through the language we express our feelings，our discoveries，our ideas，our imagination and our hopes so that they can be shared with others.When we do not let our children receive good music education，we take away from them the meanings that music expresses.Science does not tell us what it means to be a human.Music does.
So music education is much more necessary than people generally realize.

1．Passage A
Many of us have read stories or seen films about space-creatures.They come to Earth in spaceships that look like flying saucer（飛碟）.These space-creatures do not look like human beings at all，but they are usually very intelligent（聰明）.In one film，they were tiny little men with large heads.When they landed on Earth，they knew exactly what to do.They went straight to the President's palace and made him their prisoner！
