1. 13. Disneyland park

Read the leaflet and find out what tours are available in Disneyland Park.

Disneyland Tickets and Passports. Purchase your One-, Two- or Three-Day Disneyland Passports and Child Passports (for ages 3 - 11) at any Main Entrance ticket booth. Visa, Master Card and American Express are accepted. Children of two and under are admitted free.

Each passport provides unlimited use of all adventures and attractions (except Arcades).

Guided tours. If it is your first time to Disneyland, or you have a limited amount of time, we'd like to recommend our three- and a half-hour guided tour. Discover little known facts about Walt Disney and his magic kingdom and experience several attractions with your Disneyland host or hostess.

Foreign languages tours are offered.

Disney Dollars. Use Disney Dollars for all your buying throughout Disneyland. Available in $ 1, $ 5 and $ 10 denominations at a one-for-one exchange rate with U. S. currency, Disney Dollars can be purchased at all ticket booths. Cash in on the fun!

First Aid. First Aid is located at the east end of Main Street next to Plaza Inn. A registered nurse is on duty all the time.

Lost and Found. Claim your lost items at Lost and Found, located on the east side of Main Street, around the corner from the Market House.

Attractions. No matter what the season, the best time to see the most popular attractions is early in the day (before noon) and just before closing. Also, plan on eating your meals early or late, don't hold off until the end of the day. The shops are usually busiest at that time.

Safety Considerations. Shoes and shirts must be worn all the time in Disneyland. We request that no food or beverages be brought into Disneyland. A picnic area is located west of the Main Entrance for your convenience.

Disney Characters. Find Disney Characters throughout Disneyland at any given time. You can usually see Mickey Mouse and his friends in Town Square (except during parades). Just keep your eyes open and your camera ready.

1. 14. Do you like music?

Find in the text and read out what it means to be a real music listener

Everybody likes music, some people prefer classical music, others are fond of light mu­sic. But are all of them good listeners? One of the most important things is to learn to be a good listener. Only then can one learn to understand music. You may say: "It's very easy! We hear lots of sounds around us," But hearing is not listening. Are we really listening to music on the radio while working, before leaving for school or after coming home?

I think not, because our ears take in many other sounds besides music, such as: the noises from outside, some conversations, and a baby's crying.

To be a good listener means to listen to music without doing anything else. And that's not very easy. It's necessary to prac­tise it for rather a long time: to sit still and to concen­trate on listening. At last it will become a habit.

That's one thing. The other is to read about com­posers whose music we are interested in, about their works, about the conditions under which those people had to live and create. Peo­ple often say: "I often go to concerts, as I like music very much." It means that they may go to a concert of chamber or light music, attend a symphony concert, a piano, a violin or a choir concert. It's all the same for them. Does it mean that they love music if they don't understand it? And what about you?
