阅读下面短文，补全表格中所缺的信息。

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 fun, but not the first choice for education. This opinion is shortsighted(短视的). In fact, music education is necessary and important for all students.

Music tells us who we are. Music shows people’s thinking and values, as well as the social environment it came from. just as Mozart music is a lifestyle, rock music is also a lifestyle.

Music provides a kind of ability to know the world in a different way. Science explains how the sun rises and sets. Music studies the emotive(情感的) meanings. We need every possible way to discover and respond(回应) to our world because 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 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 human. Music does.

So music education is much more necessary than people generally realize.

Music tells us who we are. Music reflects(反映) the creators' thinking and values, as well as the social environment it came from. For example, just as Mozart 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.

When we talk about how teenagers are getting worse and worse now, most young people don’t agree. Teenagers always say they are growing up. They can have part-time jobs. They can drive cars. And they can even get married when they’re a little bit older.

Their parents say, “Our children are very good. They like pop music, but they play it in their own rooms. They help in the house. You know they feel bored sometimes because there’s nothing interesting in the neighborhood, no clubs and no sports. They have nothing to do.

A teacher says that he believes most young people are very kind. He thinks that it’s not bad for young people to like loud music because it can give them lots of energy and make them feel excited .Also, a lot of young people work very hard at school, and they can get good jobs later.

Lewis, a sixteen-year-old boy said, “I have passed all my examinations, but I can’t get a part-time job because older people always think I’m lazy.”

In my opinion, a lot of teenagers are very kind. They belong to community work groups. They help old people, and they also volunteer in local hospitals or primary schools to help look after the sick people and younger students.

Table manners are how to behave when you eat a meal. They include how to handle knives, forks and spoons and how to eat in a polite manner. To behave well abroad, you should know some table manners.

EATING MANNERS

Japan: It is perfect to slurp(出声地吃喝) when you eat noodles. Unlike making big noises, slurping slightly is not rude. Japanese also say it tastes better if you slurp.

Russia: Your wrists should be placed on the edge of the table while eating, fork in the left hand, and knife in the right. It is not good manners to rest them on your lap. Keep your elbows off the table. Leave some food on your plate to show that the host has given you enough to eat.

France: Never discuss money or religion over dinner. What is different from the manners in Russia is that finishing everything on your plate is considered good manners.

DRINKING MANNERS

America: If you empty a bottle into someone’s glass, it obliges（强迫） that person to buy the next bottle. It’s improper to put the last drop into other person’s glass.

Australia: In a pub it’s usual to buy a round of drinks for everyone in your group. When it’s your turn, say “It’s my round”. When it’s their round, they will buy it for you. Don’t leave before you’ve bought a round.

Japan: Don’t fill your own glass of alcohol. Instead, you should pour for others and wait for them to do it for you.

Peter and Tim are green people. They plant trees every day and the number of their trees is more than 10,000.

The two men live in a poor small village. Peter is blind for there is something wrong with his eyes and Tim lost his two arms in an accident when he was only three years old. In 2016, the two decided to work together since both of them had no jobs because of their physical condition. They wanted to find a way to make money. So they decided to plant trees. They hoped to make money by selling trees.

You could imagine how much difficulties they would meet when they planted trees. As they didn’t have enough money to buy young trees to plant, they had to use branches (树枝) from big trees. Peter climbed on Tim’s shoulders to get the fine branch. After that, Peter dug a hole and planted it with care. Finally, Tim watered the branch.

Now the land is covered with thousands of trees. And a lot of birds come here every year.

“I am his hands,” said Peter. “He is my eyes. We are good partners. Having worked together well, we planted so many trees. ”

What is a hurricane（飓风）?

You may already know that hurricanes are storms. They can cause terrible waves，wind，and rain. They happen during “Hurricane Season”, which is from June 1st until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean（大西洋）and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean（太平洋）.

Kinds of Hurricanes

There are five kinds of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. It helps people know how much damage（危害）a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed is, the more dangerous the storm is. For example, a kind of hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour, which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shorelines completely.

Hurricane dangers

When a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall, there can be a terrible flood. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. While most of a hurricane has dangerous strong winds, the eye is actually（事实上）a calm area in the storm. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that it’s over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through.

Hurricane safety tips

There is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction, so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane, be sure to remember the following safety tips.

Be sure you have a radio, batteries, fresh drinking water, and enough food.

Tell neighbours, friends, and family members your emergency plans. Tell them where you’ll go if you need to leave your home.

If you live near the ocean, leave your home and travel to a safe place. You could stay with a friend or a family member, in a hotel/motel, or in an emergency shelter area.

Stay inside during the storm. You could be badly injured（受伤）if you go outside.
