Kolt Codner's son awarded him with a medal after his completing his marathon to raise money for Akron Children's Hospital.

23、It was an afternoon in August. I was just short of turning eighteen. I stood in front of a six story high, red brick building. It was to be my new home for the next several years. I was a bit scared, unsettled and thrilled at the same time. I had two suitcases and a bag with me. In them were packed all of my clothes, towels, sheets, alarm clock and everything else I thought I would need. I carried them upstairs and then threw them on my bed. I looked around the room wondering what life had in store for me.
It was another afternoon in August. I was just short of turning forty two. My daughter was eighteen and we were standing in front of the same building. I smiled as I helped her carry her things up to her room but I also noticed that my wife and I were making more than one trip. All of the students not just my daughter seemed to have so much more stuff than I did all those years ago. Yet, it didn’t seem to make things any better for them. In fact, they looked more stressed than I remembered being on my first day there. At that moment, I wondered what life had in store for my daughter.
Last night I had a dream that I have had many times before. I was back in that same room with my belongings piled on my bed searching for my course book and wondering what classes I would take. I often wondered what this dream meant but when I woke up this morning it became crystal clear to me. We are sometimes teachers in the life, but we are always students in it. We are here taking the most important class ever. We are here to learn to love ourselves. We are here to learn to love everyone as ourselves. And it takes a lifetime. The stuff we carry with us through this life doesn’t matter at all either. It is the stuff we carry inside of us when we leave this life that really counts.

24、In Shanghai's Grand Theater, a fashionable, mainly young audience applauds enthusiastically as Guo Yong takes center stage.He holds a large bushy tree branch with leaves.Blowing on one of the leaves, he produces a sound like the singing of birds as he plays a traditional Buyi folk song.Some other musicians are also playing the traditional instruments from various ethnic groups in China.
It's the first time such music has ever been performed in the Grand Theater.But all this is the efforts of Zhu Zheqin, a Cantoneseborn singer, who has made it her mission to help preserve China's traditional ethnic music.
In 2009, after being appointed a United Nations Development Program ambassador, Zhu traveled through some of China's remotest regions in an attempt to document the traditional music of various minority groups.In the course of the fourmonth trip, she recorded more than a thousand songs.But she noticed that many of the best musicians were old, and some of the music was at risk of dying out.
“I was shocked by the beauty of what I heard—it was so good,” she says.“But it needed support.I hope to let people see the beauty of these things in the contemporary times.”
So Zhu decided to introduce some of the musicians to a wider audience.By doing this, she hopes to rekindle(点燃) the interest of the younger generation.“Young people don't like this music much; they prefer pop music and love songs.They think these songs are something their grandma sings.This kind of repackaging gives young people a new door into their heritage.”
Zhu believes China needs to look again at its own roots.“China today is basically all Western art; in our conservatories (音乐学院) Western classical music is the top,” she says.“For China to really contribute to the world, we need to go on our own path.So what can represent China today?” The answer, she suggests, is to move from “made in China” to “created in China”.
【1】From the first paragraph, we learn that________.
A. the audience are all young people
B. Guo Yong is playing the Buyi folk music
C. Guo Yong is the only minority performer in China
D. tree branches make good musical instruments
【2】Which of the following is true of Zhu Zheqin?
A. She teaches music in a conservatory.
B. She is helping preserve Chinese ethnic music.
C. She works as an official in the United Nations.
D. She's created all the music for the Grand Theater.
【3】What is Zhu Zheqin's idea about Chinese traditional music?
A. It is completely out of date.
B. Only old musicians play it well.
C. It needs changes to attract young people.
D. It is quickly dying out.
【4】What does Zhu Zheqin mean in the last paragraph?
A. The traditional music should be repackaged.
B. Chinese conservatories shouldn't teach Western music.
C. China has contributed a lot to the Western art.
D. Only the things created in China can be symbols of China.

Some people can look young and healthy on the ________ but be old and beaten down on the inside. Other people can look old and worn-out on the outside but ________ be young and vital within. Most of us fall somewhere in-between.
