Their influence was at its height in the 1 960s．but their music continues to stir listeners today．However, up until recently one aspect of the Beatles was struck in Yesterday：The music had never been remastered (重新灌錄)．But on September 9 that situation came to an end，with the release of the entire band’s music in a digital makeover．It is probably the biggest reissue(重新發(fā)行)in pop music history, said British newspaper the Financial Times．
The albums were to be remastered at Abbey Road Studios in London, the location where the band produced much of their work．The cover of their 1ast album，Abbey Road of 1969．featured the four young men striding(大步行走)across a zebra crossing on Abbey Road itself．It is one of the most famous Of a11 Beatles images．
Recently, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the album, hundreds of Beatles lovers gathered there to show their appreciation．
Pop groups come and go．The boy band pursued by screaming fans one year will be forgotten the next．But the Beatles are one Of the few groups whose music seems to have endured．Why? Paul McCartney’s biographer Barry Miles has an explanation：“They were the first rock band…and they just happened to be the best．They were the first band to play stadiums，to have their own products．They were ground—breaking in every way．”he says．

Young adult filmmakers all hope to show their works in international festivals like Sundance and Toronto. But what aboutreally young filmmakers who aren’t in film school yet and aren’t,strictly speaking, even adults?
They are at the heart of Wingspan Arts Kids Film Festival,tomorrow,in a setting any director might envy:Lincoln Center. Complete with “red carpet” interviews and various awards,the festival has much in common with events for more experienced moviemakers,except for the age of the participants:about 8 to 18.
"What’s really exciting is that it’s film for kids by kids,” said Cori Gardner,managing director of Wingspan Arts,a nonprofit organization offering youth arts programs in the New York area. This year the festival will include films not only from Wingspan but also from other city organizations and one from a middle school in Arlington,Virginia. “We want to make this a national event,” Ms. Gardner added.

King to a science fiction adventure set in the year 3005. “A lot of the material is really mature,” Ms. Gardner said,talking about films by the New York City branch of Global Action Project,a media arts and leadership-training group. “The Choice is about the history of a family andMaster Anti-Smoker is about the dangers of secondhand smoke.”Dream of the Invisiblesdescribes young immigrants’ (移民) feelings of both belonging and not belonging in their adopted country.

(2024·合肥一中統(tǒng)考)
More than half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealth to their children，a new survey showed last Tuesday.
The survey，published by the Bank of America, studied the rich with $3 million or more in assets.It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have well－developed plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children”．
The majority of the 457 people surveyed are selfmade，first－generation rich.Fifty－two percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children just how wealthy they are，and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth.One in three parents said they had never thought to do it.
They are worried that their children would become lazy，spend money freely，make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.
Only 34 percent strongly agreed that their children would be able to handle any inheritance(遺產(chǎn))they plan to leave them.
“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation，”said Sallie Krawcheck，president of the Global Wealth and Investment Management of the Bank of America.“Our research，however，uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”
The trend is led by the world's richest man Bill Gates，who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife，the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation(基金會)，and not to his children.
“We want to give it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact，”he said.
Of his plans for his children，Gates said：“I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage...they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.”
【語篇解讀】 調(diào)查表明，大部分美國富人不愿向孩子炫富，甚至不打算將豐厚的資產(chǎn)傳給后代。
9．We can learn from the passage that ________.
A．rich parents may not know how to manage their inheritance
B．rich parents don't equal rich kids，at least in the US
C．American children don't get to inherit their parents' wealth
D．poor children don't expect themselves to be as rich as their parents
解析 推理判斷題。第二段的后半部分提到在被調(diào)查的美國富人中，幾乎沒有人計劃為他們的孩子保留資產(chǎn)或者將資產(chǎn)傳給孩子，由此可推斷在美國，父母富有并不意味著孩子富有。
答案 B
10．According to the survey，most rich Americans ________.
A．think they owe their children nothing
B．think it best to give their money back to society
C．doubt their children's ability to handle wealth
D. are confident of their children's ability to handle wealth
解析 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段內(nèi)容可推知，大部分美國富人懷疑他們的孩子處理財富的能力。
答案 C
11．The underlined word“they”in Paragraph 6 refers to ________.
A．responsible children
B．Bill Gates and his wife
C．first－generation rich
D．rich parents
解析 詞義猜測題。富裕的父母們希望把他們的財富傳給
下一代，此處they指代的是畫線詞前面的“the
wealthy parents”，即“rich parents”。
答案 D
12．From the last paragraph，we can see that Bill Gates wants to show ________.
A．the trend of leaving no inheritance to children
B．the positive impact of charity on society
C．the way of giving back to society
D．the importance of independence for children
解析 推理判斷題。根據(jù)本段中比爾·蓋茨所說的話可推知，他更強(qiáng)調(diào)孩子的個人奮斗，認(rèn)為培養(yǎng)孩子的自立很重要。
答案 D
