Music is part of the structure of our society；it sits at the heart of human experience and enriches（丰富）so many lives.Why，then，is it not central to our education system?This is a question I recently put forward to an all-party group on music education.l am 20 years old and began playing the piano at the

Barracudas Band in Barrow-in-Furness，aged seven.The funding for the centre has now been cut.I took part in the primary tuition project，aged 11.The funding for that has also been cut now.It is a common problem across the country.Music is not an add-on，a“soft”subject or a luxury—it is absolutely essential to our existence.Every child deserves the opportunity to experience its benefits.Until music is held in the same regard as the"core"subjects of our curriculum，our society will be worse off.We need joy，empathy（共情）and hope on this planet more than ever，and taking away children's opportunity to develop musical skills is to set ourselves up for a fall.Despite the many brilliant programs and projects to encourage young musicians（“Every Child a Musician，”"Awards for Young Musicians，"to name but a few），we are reaching a crisis point.We are in danger of destroying creativity，innovation（创新）and expression.Learning an instrument can help develop so many fundamental life skills.It promotes discipline，empathy，determination and cooperation as well as providing a sense of community and worth.

Music has changed my life.It is a huge part of who I am.I have learned so much about the world through music and the inspiring figures I have met through it.I feel I have a duty to help ensure that others can benefit from its magic.Let us make it available to every single child.

What is the theme of the passage?

A.Music education should be available to every child
B.Music training programs should be provided free
C.Music should be placed at the top of the curriculum
D.Music should be made popular across the country

正确答案及解析

正确答案

解析

文章第一段提到音乐是我们社会结构的一部分，它是人类经验的核心。第二段提到如今对孩子的音乐教育的经费被削减了。第三段再次强调音乐是我们生存的必需品，每个孩子都应该有机会体验它的好处，剥夺孩子们发展音乐技能的机会，就等于让我们自己陷入困境。最后一段作者通过自己的经历强调音乐对人成长的重要性。所以文章的主旨是每一个孩子都应该接受音乐教育。故选A。
