A
A young musician carrying a violin case in Paraguay makes her way to rehearsal(彩排).What's
inside the case,however,is no ordinary violin.It's made from a salad bowl,a CD,and large pieces of
wood.
The violinist,Ada Rios,13,is a member of the Orchestra of Instruments Recycled from Cateura,
a group of teen musicians whose instruments are made from the trash near their village.Cateura,just
outside Paraguay's capital,Asuncion,is a poor area built on a very large landfill (垃圾填埋地).Cateura
is home to 2,500 families,with 20 teens in the orchestra.They play everything from the classical works
of Beethoven to Beatles' songs.
Now the orchestra is attracting world - wide attention.The musicians are being filmed for a
documentary , Land - fill Harmonic.The film will show how people in Cateura turn trash into
instruments,and the effect that being part of an orchestra can have on kids.
In Paraguay,nearly 35 percent of the population lives in poverty (贫穷).In Cateura,a real musical
instrument costs more than a house,says Favio Chavez,the orchestra's founder.About 1,500 tons of
waste are left at the landfill each day,and the people there earn a living searching through the garbage for
things they can recycle and sell.

Today,people all over the world are moving out of small villages in the country to go and live in
big,noisy cities.They are moving from the peaceful hills,mountains,fields,rivers and streams of the
countryside to the busy world of streets,buildings,traffic and crowds.This movement from rural areas to

In many countries,the main reason why people come to live in towns and cities is work.After one or
two large factories have been built in or near a town,people come to find work,and soon an industrial
area begins to grow.There is usually a residential area nearby,where the factory workers can live.The
families of these workers need schools,hospitals and shops,so more people come to live in the area to
provide these services and a city grows.
In every major city in the world,there is a business district where the big companies have their main
offices.In the United States,this area is usually in the city centre downtown.It is here that you can see the
huge skyscrapers office blocks.The people who work here often travel a long way to work each day.Many
of them live in the suburbs of the city,far away from the industrial area and the city centre.Some suburbs
are very pleasant,with nice houses and big gardens.There are usually parks for children to play in and
large department stores where you can buy all you need.
But what is the future of the big cities? Will they continue to get bigger? Perhaps not.Some major
cities have actually become smaller in the last ten years,and it is quite possible that one day we will see
people moving out of the major cities and back into smaller towns and villages.
5.Why do people move to live in cities or towns?
A.Because they can live more comfortably there.

C.Because they want to find work.
D.Because they are sure of having better life there.

A.has been going on for more than 2,000 years
B.will continue in the future
C.may not continue in the future
