(5pts) SINGING FOR A MUSICAL LIFE According to a group called The Voices Foundation, everyone has a singing voice as well as a speaking voice somewhere inside them. This, they say, should be encouraged from an early age because it provides the best, and the cheapest, based on which to build an understanding of music. Behind the Foundation’s ideas, lies the teaching of the Hungarian composer Zoltan Kodaly. Lie observered that song can form a key part in the relationship both mother and child almost from birth. This is especially true of more traditional societies, like those of West Africa, where some small children are able to sing literacy hundreds of songs, all of which have been learnt by heart. But many mordern children first come to an understanding of music when they learn to play an instrument, and although some teaching of the theory of music is usually a part of this, our relationship with the music on the page is often a mechanic one. The belief of Voices Foundation is that a natural feeling for rhythm, harmony and musical structure, the very qualities we appreciate in the greatest musicians, can only be achieved through the explosion of music with the voice from the start. The foundation 4

(10pts) Herman Melville, an American author best known today for his novel Moby Dick, was actually more popular during his lifetime for some of his other works. He traveled extensively and used the knowledge gained during his travels as the basis for his early novels. In 1837, 5 at the age of eighteen, Melville signed as a cabin boy on a merchant ship that was to sail from his Massachusetts home to Liverpool, England. His 7
  8. experiences on this trip served as a basis for the novel Redburn (1849). In 1841 Melville set out on a whaling ship headed for the South Seas. After jumping ship in Tahiti, he wandered around the 10 islands of Tahiti and Moorea. This South Sea island sojourn was a backdrop to the novel Omoo (1847). After three years away from home, Melville joined up with a U.S. naval frigate that was returning to the eastern United States around Cape Horn. The novel White-Jacket(1850)describes this lengthy voyage as a navy 15 seaman. With the publication of these early adventure novels, Melville developed a strong and loyal following among readers eager for his tales of exotic places and situations. However, in 1851, with the publication of Moby Dick, Melville's popularity started to diminish. Moby Dick, on one level the saga of the hunt for the great white 20 whale, was also a heavily symbolic allegory of the heroic struggle of man against the universe.

It is ironic that the novel that served to diminish Melville's popularity during his lifetime is the one for which he is best known today. 71. The main subject of the passage is ___: A.
