21、Since the invention of Guitar Hero and similar computer games, it is no longer necessary to imagine what it would be like to play along with the Beatles—you can come together with them in the virtual world.
Bill Wyman, former bass player(贝斯手) in the Rolling Stones, has pointed out that music video games discourage kids from learning to play real instruments. My own opinion suggest quite opposite.
Last year, I bought Guitar Hero Ⅲ for our 14-year-old son, Jack. Jack quickly mastered the process and entered an intense period of playing the game.
A few months later, while I was away on tour, a couple of his friends came around with a real electric guitar. Playing Guitar Hero had taught them how to play along the track. Now they wanted to see if they could apply that to the real thing. Jack’s friends taught him how to play along to his favorite songs using just his index finger (食指)on the bass string. He got it right away.
Guitar Hero had helped him over the first difficulty for guitar players—how to strum(拨弄) the strings with one hand while making chord(和弦) shapes with the other. He never plays Guitar Hero now, preferring to rock out in the garage with his mates.
Despite my attempts at getting him to learn an instrument, it was Guitar Hero that taught him the basics of playing and built up his confidence to the extent that he was able to make a recognizable sound the first time he played it.
So let’s not complain about a game that encourages kids to become music fans and, in our son’s case, gives them the basic skills needed to learn how to play guitar.
【1】What’s Bill Wyman’s attitude towards music video games?
A. Curious B. Approving. C. Negative. D. Unconcerned.
【2】Which statement is TRUE about Jack’s first playing with a real electric guitar?
A. He did it successfully.
B. He taught his friends how to play.
C. He didn’t know how to play along to a song.
D. He didn’t know how to strum the instruments.
【3】What can we infer from Jack’s case?
A. Parents should encourage their kids.
B. Computer games are harmful to kids.
C. Kids should learn an instrument.
D. Guitar Hero is a useful game.
【4】What’s the best title for the text?
A. A new computer game
B. The story of a guitarist
C. In defense of Guitar Hero
D. The best way to play guitar

23、Wanted: “Golden taste buds” and a very sweet tooth
What if you’ve got to eat candy all day for your job?

Candy Funhouse put up an ad for the job. The ad says the chief candy officer will be in charge of “all things fun”, so it’s special. The person who gets this job will have to like eating candy. Do you know how much? More than 100 pieces a day on average!
Even Kids Can Apply
Many people think this job sounds pretty fun. The job is even open to kids! Are you 5 or older? Then you can apply!
