11、ough a checkout line, I found my thoughts on speed, nothing more. The line I was standing in wasnt moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier, who was receiving money from customers.He was an old man in his sixties. I thought, well, it probably took him a little longer to get th

12、e jobs done. For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before he began scanning the goods they were purchasing. Sure, his words were the usual, “Hows it going?” But he did something differenthe actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and talk

13、with them briefly.I thought it was strange, but I guessed I had grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of a conversation without thinking. Usually, after a while, you dont give any thought to the question and just say something back quietly.This old cashier seemed sincere ab

As their hands met, the old cashier looked the customers in the eyes. “I want to thank you for shopping here today,” he told them. “You have a great day. Bye-bye.” The looks

16、on the faces of the customers were priceless.Now it was my turn. I glanced down at the name tag on his red waistcoat, the kind experienced Wal-Mart cashier wore. It read, “Marty.”Marty told me how much I owed and I handed him some money. The next thing I knew he was standing beside me, offering his

28、s harp(豎琴) , near Alexandrias historic waterfront.A glass harp is made up of different-sized drinking glasses, each filled with water. Turner makes music by running his fingers over the tops of the glasses. By doing so, each glass makes a different musical sound.Turner is 78 years old now. He became

29、 interested in playing the glass harp at the age of six, when he heard his father playing with a glass of water at the dinner table. He has been playing it for 50 years.Today Turner puts together his instrument by placing 60 different glasses on a wooden soundboard. He holds the glasses in place wit

30、h rubber bands, which keeps them from breaking. He then adds different amounts of water to each one to create different musical notes. Adding or taking away just a little water will change the sound. Adding water to a glass will make a lower sound. The smaller bowls of water produce a higher sound,

31、while the larger ones produce a lower, deeper sound.Turner always uses low-priced glass because it sounds better than costly crystal(水晶) and he has more control over the sound. Before buying new glasses, he will test them in stores.The glass harp was popular 300 years ago when composers like Wolfgan

32、g Mozart wrote music for the instrument. There have been about 400 pieces of music written just for the glass harp. But Turner plays all kinds of music, even popular music from China. Few people play the glass harp these days, but Turner says he sees videos of people experimenting with the instrumen

35、CTo help recycle drinking glasses.DTo increase difficulty in performing.4、What would be the best title for the text?AMusician Pleases Crowds by Playing GlassesBPlaying the Glass Harp: a New TrendCJamey Turners Dream Coming TrueDWonderful Music Has No Borders24（8分）In my very first job with some archa

36、eologists, I wasnt digging objects out of the ground, instead I was employed as an artist, drawing what they found.

38、f Asia. To get around the country, I had to learn Russian so that I could speak to the local people. When I got there I thought, “Wow!

40、rica, in the high areas of the Andes mountain range. My best experience was when I was digging on the Egyptian Red Sea coast.

41、year-old mat in front of the house and there, under it, after all that time, was the house key with the owners name carved on it. It felt like he could be on his way home any minute!
