   I read an interesting article recently about how music played an important role in helping two elders in a nursing home find each other.They were listening to a waltz on the radio and began dancing with each other!
   Music is around us all the time-it's on the radio，television，and in movies and commercials（商業(yè)廣告）.Music can soothe you and make you happy or sad.I hear music in grocery stores，in lifts and just about everywhere I go.
   I grew up with music.My mom used to do housework listening to the FM radio when it was all classical music.My dad liked the dance bands that included Sammy Kaye，Guy Lombardo，Glenn Miller and Jan Garber.Many of these bands broadcast live on the radio from dance halls in Chicago.My great grandfather，Joseph Bapst，played in a brass band in the 1870s and 80s.My great uncle，George Keller，played the trumpet（小號(hào)） in the band，as did my dad and mother.My great aunt taught piano and had a degree in music.So I really didn't have a choice when it came to music and a career.For me，it was music!
   My love was marches（進(jìn)行曲） and band music.American March King John Philip Sousa said that a good march could make a man with a wooden leg get up and march!
   In 1948，the Cities Service Band of America went on radio and played a half-hour live band concert every Monday night at 8：30 on NBC.Conductor Paul Lavalle led a band made up of the best musicians in the New York City area.In 1949，I asked my dad to get a television set.He said， "We don't need one."
   Well，at the end of the 1949 season，the Cities Service Band announced that beginning in September，they were going to appear on television every Monday night My dad bought a TV the next week!Music has been a great and wonderful part of my life-and it still is.

1．Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history.
   Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers，for food，for sport，and simply because they were in the way.Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever.Hundreds more are on the danger list today.About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.
