听力原文: The last radical change in cinema was the development of color. Colored photography was possible from the 1860s, but early films were normally black and white and any coloring was painted on by hand—an expensive, slow and not very effective technique.
In 1922 the first real color films were produced, using a two-color system called Technicolor. It was quite common at that time to film whole sequences in one color and the attempts to mix colors to get realistic effects were not very successful, in 1932 Technicolor was improved by the use of three main colors and, in general, the same system is used today.
Color took longer to be accepted than sound. It was expensive and people often felt, oddly, that it was less realistic than black and white. This was partly, of course, because the quality was not always very high and so the scenes could look very peculiar. Since the 1930s there have been many improvements in the techniques of cinema, and the style. of acting has changed a good deal. But after fifty years the basics—moving pictures, color and sound are still the same.

Imagine a school that expected its students to become literate(有读写能力的) without any formal instruction. Most parents would be alarmed by such an approach, which would leave their children confused and with gaps in their understanding. This however has been the philosophy on character development in many of our schools. Why is the development of character seen as somehow different from the other skills that we teach?
Of course there will always be learning by osmosis(耳濡目染)in any school, but as a teacher and primary school head I have found that a child;s moral literacy is strengthened when thy acquire the building blocks of good character such as consideration, courage and honor: qualities which are commonly known as virtue(美德).
I personally find that exploring a virtue over a two-week period provides a simple and effective program that allows for the creative input of both teacher and student and a chance for the virtue to embed(使融入)itself. Once a lesson on a virtue such as honesty has been completed we need to allow time for children to practice this concept just as would be the case with fractions or verbs. Allowing children to role play a situation such as making up excuses to cover a mistake can be enormously interesting, and the drama can be frozen allowing the characters to be questioned about their feelings and motives. It;s also a safe way for children to experience for themselves how a lie usually goes out of control.
Our role as educators is also to look for opportunities to help our students as they attempt to strengthen their characters. When something goes wrong we guide the young person to the virtue that will prevent it from happening again. For instance, when am student thoughtlessly disturbs the calm atmosphere of the library, instead of a response such as,that was really disrespectful and selfish of you!; we draw out from them the required virtue;When you;re walking through the library, what virtues do you need to use?

Sheet music or printed music, too, is material culture. Scholars once defined folk music cultures as those in which people learn and sing music by ear rather than from print, but research shows mutual influence among oral and written sources during the past few centuries in Europe, Britain, and America. Printed versions limit variety because they tend to standardize any song, yet they stimulate people to create new and different songs. Besides, the ability to read music notation has a far-reaching effect on music and, when it becomes widespread, on the music culture as a whole.
One more important part of music's material culture should be singled out. the influence of the electronic media--radio, record player, tape recorder, television, and videocassette, with the future promising talking and singing computers and other developments. This is all part of the "information revolution", a twentieth-century phenomenon as important as the industrial revolution was in the nineteenth. These electronic media are not just limited to modem nations; they have affected music cultures all over the globe.

A.it helps produce new cultural tools and technology
B.it can reflect the development of the nation
C.it helps understand the nation's past and present
D.it earl demonstrate the nation's civilization
