Sunday morning, as most people line up outside neighborhood breakfast spots,
watch TV news shows, or head for church, Chloris Noelke－Olson
is tuning up her fiddle. She's preparing to enjoy bluegrass music the old－fashioned
way: with friends, at home, for free.
be able to play with other people face to face and have that sort of
connection, it's spiritual，” Ms. Noelke－Olson said of the
weekly house concerts in Chicago she participates in. “It's like a good
conversation with instruments—something that doesn't seem to happen much anymore
because everyone is blabbering(饶舌) on their cell phones.”
is among a growing group of Americans who are finding it pleasant to unplug
from the digital grid, at least temporarily. While there is no exact data to
track how many people are forming knitting groups, hosting house concerts, or
organizing family game nights, it is possible to connect the dots between the
rising price of entertainment and the rising sales of board games (棋类游戏) and craft supplies.
2007 and 2008, the prices for restaurant meals, concert tickets, and movie
tickets all increased. At the same time, board games sales rose 6 percent,
while total toy sales decreased 3 percent.
trends are expected to continue because of the struggling economy. Instead of
outfitting their homes with expensive home entertainment systems, consumers are
more likely to be interfacing the old－fashioned way: eye－to－eye.
Families are rediscovering ways to come together that have nothing to do with
high tech.
are turning inward to build in enjoyment time for family and home”，
said Linda Bettencourt, an interior designer in San Francisco whose clients
typically live in million－dollar homes. Over the past six months, Ms.
Bettencourt has been hired to redesign living spaces to foster the kind of
connectivity that doesn't involve wires. “The big game table is back，”
she says. “People want to sit around and see each other's faces rather than
facing a flat－screen TV.”
Why is Chloris Noelke－Olson enjoying bluegrass music the old－fashioned
Because she likes playing musical instruments.
Because she wants to provide free music for her friends.
Because she doesn't like talking on the cell phone.
Because she likes to form a close connectivity with people.
Ms. Bettencourt has been hired to ________.
connect the rich people with others
redesign living space for the rich people
give some advice to people on connectivity
help people to save money
We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.
home designing has become a big business
rich people usually pay more attention to their living space
even rich people are changing their ways of entertainment
rich people spend more on home entertainment
This passage is about ________.
a new trend in people's entertainment in America
the present economic situation in America
the modern family life in America
the change of people's interest in America
If this passage is posted on the web, it most probably appears in the section
of ________.
people& B. travel
environment& D. lifestyle

Rooster Morris is an author, entertainer, storyteller, musician, and composer. He has performed for over 4.5 million students in elementary schools, public libraries and museums.

Most importantly, students walk away, believing reading will open the doors to every opportunity in life. Everyone knows authors write books, but how many students actually have the opportunity to watch a published author read from their books? When a student has the advantage of meeting an author and has the opportunity to ask questions, they realize authors are people from far-away places. Rooster points out these misunderstandings and explains how he started writing. Rooster talks of habits being one of the most important things in a person’s life.
