2.Music for the CloudsOnce upon a time,there was a country.It didn't rain for a long time.The people there started to go hungry because the crops died during the long drought(干旱).
A group of musicians were travelling the country,trying to make a living from their music shows.(56)D.Because there were so many problems in the land.
"We believe music can help solve all the problems,"said the musicians.But no one paid any attention.(57)A.It was very strange,because the sky was cloudy.
"It has been cloudy like this for many months,but not a single drop of rain has fallen,"people there told them.
"(58)C,"the musicians said,and they began practicing for the concert on the top of the mountain.Everyone who heard the music was surprised and went up the mountain.(59)B.There were tiny and interesting notes(音符) from their instruments.They rose and rose into the clouds.The music was so beautiful,happy and fun.
And the notes started playing with the clouds and the whole sky turned into an amazing amusement park.Before long,the large clouds were thundering with laughter.
The musicians continued playing,and a few minutes later the clouds started crying with laughter.(60)E,and they brought great happiness to all.
And in memory of that musical rain,everyone in the land learned how to play an instrument.They took turns to go up the mountain,and bring joy to the clouds with their beautiful songs.
