Teaching music with a system that works
Schoolchildren in Britain are set to enjoy high
quality teaching from classical music legends
thanks ...................... an exciting project linked to
Venezuela’s world-famous El Sistema orchestra.
Four new community orchestras have been
created ...................... the country in a scheme ...................... aims to improve children’s confidence
through music. Government departments are
providing funds...................... the multi-million
pound project in Gateshead, Leeds, Nottingham,
and Telford ...................... 2015.
El Sistema is the inspiration behind Britain’s In Harmony scheme. In Harmony uses classical music to
change the lives of children, and benefit their communities, and families.
Already, musicians from the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and Manchester Camerata have
agreed to take part. They will provide instrumental
tuition, ensemble playing practice, and promote wider
musical activities in communities. Organizers hope the
initiative will give children role models to look up to,
and help uncover the next generation of composers,
artists, and performers.
For several years, there have been successful In Harmony projects in London and Liverpool. While the
project is all about classical music, some of those who
have taken part have shown an interest in other types
of music, too. Many of those children whose musical
talents really stood out have since begun to learn the
piano, drums, or guitar, while others have gone into
music production. Some have gone on to record and
release their own music, and others now perform
regular gigs. Organizers of the scheme want to repeat
that success by bringing the project to towns and
cities where there are areas of deprivation.
The project offers disadvantaged children the chance
to master a classical instrument with rigorous tuition.
Along the way, the children learn valuable teamwork
skills, and enjoy a sense of community spirit. In the
past, it has transformed attitudes towards classical
music, and learning in general. Even children who
say that they can’t stand learning instruments at the
beginning, sometimes end up wanting to become
professional musicians by the end. They often grow to
realize that they love making music after playing with
others in an orchestra.
In Harmony will run in selected primary schools
whose students will meet several times a week from
an early age to play instruments together. The aim
is engage all the children in participating schools
and communities so they can benefit from sharing
the experience. Once the project settles down in the
communities where it is launching, it is hoped the
children will soon be rehearsing for big performances
on the local, regional, or national stage.
According to the information in paragraph 3, we
can infer that:

Read the following excerpt and answer the following
questions.
Today's grandparents are joining their grandchildren on
social media, but the different generations' online habits couldn't be more different. In the UK the over-55s
are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning
that they will soon be the site's second biggest user
group, with 3.5 million users aged 55–64 and 2.9 million
over-65s.
Sheila, aged 59, says, 'I joined to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and
photos of them. It's a much better way to see what
they're doing than waiting for letters and photos in the
post. That's how we did it when I was a child, but I think
I'm lucky I get to see so much more of their lives than
my grandparents did.'
Ironically, Sheila's grandchildren are less likely to use
Facebook themselves. Children under 17 in the UK are
leaving the site – only 2.2 million users are under 17 –
but they're not going far from their smartphones. Chloe,
aged 15, even sleeps with her phone. 'It's my alarm
clock so I have to,' she says. 'I look at it before I go to
sleep and as soon as I wake up.'
Unlike her grandmother's generation, Chloe's age
group is spending so much time on their phones at
home that they are missing out on spending time with
their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn't
heard from in forty years. 'We use Facebook to arrange
to meet all over the country,' she says. 'It's changed my
social life completely.'
Teenagers might have their parents to thank for their
smartphone and social media addiction as their parents
were the early adopters of the smartphone. Peter, 38
and father of two teenagers, reports that he used to be
on his phone or laptop constantly. 'I was always connected and I felt like I was always working,' he says.
'How could I tell my kids to get off their phones if I was
always in front of a screen myself?' So, in the evenings
and at weekends, he takes his SIM card out of his
smartphone and puts it into an old-style mobile phone
that can only make calls and send text messages. 'I'm
not completely cut off from the world in case of emergencies, but the important thing is I'm setting a better
example to my kids and spending more quality time
with them.'
Is it only a matter of time until the generation above and
below Peter catches up with the new trend for a less
digital life?

Saving What’s Precious
The World Monuments Fund is an organization
_____________works to preserve important
historical and architectural sites ____________ the world. Every two years, the WMF releases a list
of sites ______________ particular danger of becoming
ruins, and in 2014, it chose 67 sites in 41 countries.
As this is a problem I feel strongly about, I decided
to find______________ more about some of these
places ___________ my blog.
My first discovery was the Fort of Graca, in Elvas, Portugal. Built in the 18th century, this superb military
building played an important role in several wars.
However, the building’s strategic importance declined
over the years and signs of decay are now appearing.
Today, the WMF supports the continued maintenance
of the fort, and plans to reuse it as a tourism center.
My research then led me to the Sankore Mosque in
Timbuktu, Mali, West Africa. Built in the 14th century,
the mosque was integral to the city’s importance as a
spiritual and intellectual center in the 15th and 16th
centuries. Today, the mosque is vulnerable to fighting
and rapid urbanization in the region. The WMF hopes
to draw attention to this, and to protect this precious
monument.
My online journey then took me to the Christ Church
Cathedral in Zanzibar, Tanzania, East Africa. Completed
in 1879, the Cathedral’s exquisite design makes its history difficult to take in: it lies on the site of what was, until 1873, a major slave market. The Cathedral is now
both a place of worship and a memorial to the slaves
who suffered there. Recently, large cracks appeared
in the Cathedral’s walls. However, with the help of the
WMF, they are now repaired.
A very special site on my list was the Damiya Dolmen
Field in Jordan, home to 300 stone tombs which date
back to 3600 BC. The Damiya Field is in danger of collapse due to mining in the area. However, thanks to
pressure from the WMF, the Jordanian government is
taking steps to protect it.
Lastly, I found out about the 19th century Alhambra
Palace in Santiago, Chile. It replicates parts of the 13th
century Alhambra palace in Spain, and, until a major
earthquake hit the country in 2010, existed as a cultural institution supporting artists. The effects of the
earthquake, together with old age and weather, made
the building unsafe and it is currently closed. The WMF
hopes that its involvement with the palace can help it
to open to the public once again.

Saving What’s Precious
The World Monuments Fund is an organization
_____________works to preserve important
historical and architectural sites ____________ the world. Every two years, the WMF releases a list
of sites ______________ particular danger of becoming
ruins, and in 2014, it chose 67 sites in 41 countries.
As this is a problem I feel strongly about, I decided
to find______________ more about some of these
places ___________ my blog.
My first discovery was the Fort of Graca, in Elvas, Portugal. Built in the 18th century, this superb military
building played an important role in several wars.
However, the building’s strategic importance declined
over the years and signs of decay are now appearing.
Today, the WMF supports the continued maintenance
of the fort, and plans to reuse it as a tourism center.
My research then led me to the Sankore Mosque in
Timbuktu, Mali, West Africa. Built in the 14th century,
the mosque was integral to the city’s importance as a
spiritual and intellectual center in the 15th and 16th
centuries. Today, the mosque is vulnerable to fighting
and rapid urbanization in the region. The WMF hopes
to draw attention to this, and to protect this precious
monument.
My online journey then took me to the Christ Church
Cathedral in Zanzibar, Tanzania, East Africa. Completed
in 1879, the Cathedral’s exquisite design makes its history difficult to take in: it lies on the site of what was, until 1873, a major slave market. The Cathedral is now
both a place of worship and a memorial to the slaves
who suffered there. Recently, large cracks appeared
in the Cathedral’s walls. However, with the help of the
WMF, they are now repaired.
A very special site on my list was the Damiya Dolmen
Field in Jordan, home to 300 stone tombs which date
back to 3600 BC. The Damiya Field is in danger of collapse due to mining in the area. However, thanks to
pressure from the WMF, the Jordanian government is
taking steps to protect it.
Lastly, I found out about the 19th century Alhambra
Palace in Santiago, Chile. It replicates parts of the 13th
century Alhambra palace in Spain, and, until a major
earthquake hit the country in 2010, existed as a cultural institution supporting artists. The effects of the
