At a young age, Kyle Coleman developed autism (自闭症). He used to go to hospital but it didn't really work. The autism was so serious that he could only speak several words. He couldn't have any physical contact (接触) with others.
However, he took part in a special performance. For the first time, he sang and even held hands with his singing partner Lottee Brown. He found a way to express himself through songs.
Now his room is filled with hundreds of CDs and he uses songs to communicate and express his feelings. He knows all the words in all of the songs. His parents were told that he was always happy with music and that maybe they could try to see if music could help him.
Kyle's mom, Caroline Coleman, was very excited. She said music allowed her son to connect with another person for the first time. “He doesn't normally let people touch him. When Lottee first held his hand, he jumped a bit, and then he seemed to think and said, ‘It's okay.'”

How important is music Many people usually think that listening to music is nice but not very important. It is often only thought to be entertainment (娱乐), but not the first choice for education. This opinion is wrong.17.________
Music tells us who we are. Music reflects (表达) the musicians' thoughts and ideas, and the social environment they came from. For example, just as Mozart's music represents (代表) a lifestyle, rock music also represents a lifestyle. George Gershwin's music is another example. He introduced jazz style into his music.
18．________ Science explains how the sun rises and sets. Music explores emotional meanings, such as sadness and happiness. People need every possible way to learn about our world.
Music shows people's thoughts. It's a special language. We can “talk” to each other and exchange our thoughts in this amazing way.19.________All of these can be shared with others. When we do not let our children receive a good music education, we take them away from the meanings that music expresses. Our children will lack a wonderful part in their lives.20.________
A．This opinion is from the society. B．So music education is necessary for all students. C．Through the language we express our feelings, discoveries, ideas and hopes.

Qinqiang Opera, which began from old folk songs and dances in Shaanxi and Gansu Provinces, is one of China's oldest operas.People call it the “oldest form” of Chinese opera because of its strong music and emotional stories.Historical records show it started during the Qin Dynasty, when farmers and soldiers used it for fun and comfort.The opera shows the daily lives, hard work, and emotions of ancient Chinese people.Its songs and dances also teach people about local language, culture and history.
However, in the 1990s, pop and Western music became very popular, and fewer people cared about Qinqiang Opera.Young people especially liked the new music more.Many actors had to leave the stage during this time.Some opera groups closed, and old performance skills were almost forgotten.But a few never gave up—they kept practising to save the art.
In 2006, things changed when the government named Qinqiang Opera an “important cultural treasure”．This helped people pay attention to it again.Schools started teaching students about it, and theaters mixed traditional opera with modern styles to attract young people.Ten years ago, most audiences were old, but now many young people watch and love Qinqiang Opera.More young actors are joining too, and schools train them to keep the art alive.
