2、ly set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music,its significance,and its potential as a unifying(聯(lián)合) voice across cultures.

3、ason Moran’s job to help change that.As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz,Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz,make the music more accessible,and preserve its history and culture. “Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public Radio

4、’s reporter Neal Conan.“What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and white anymore.It’s actually color,and it’s actually digital.” Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the

5、music has been lost.“The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958.It has to continue to move,because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran. Last year,Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party,“just to kind of put it back in the

6、 mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran.“For me,it’s the recontextualization.In music,where does the emotion(情感) lie?Are we,as humans,gaining any insight(感悟) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a di

13、hing you see every day.But at Union Station in Los Angeles last month,a board went up with dollar bills attached to it with pins and a sign that read,“Give What You Can,Take What You Need.”? People quickly caught on.And while many took dollars,many others pinned their own cash to the board.“People

14、of all ages,races,and socio-economic(社會經(jīng)濟(jì)的) backgrounds gave and took,” said Tyler Bridges of The Toolbox,which created the project.“We even had a bride in her wedding dress come up to the board and take a few dollars.” Most of the bills on the board were singles,but a few people left fives,tens and

15、 even twenties.The video clip(片段) shows one man who had found a $20 bill pinning it to the board. “What I can say for the folks that gave the most,is that they were full of smiles,” Bridges said.“There’s a certain feeling that giving can do for you and that was apparent in those that gave the most.

16、” Most people who took dollars took only a few,but Bridges said a very small number took as much as they could. While the clip might look like part of a new ad campaign,Bridges said the only goal was to show generosity and sympathy.He added that he hopes people in other cities might try similar pro

23、“How do people develop and experience place attachment when the place concerns a commercial setting,where they are just customers,and the place is owned or controlled by someone else?” Consumers form strong emotional bonds with locations when they experience familiarity.Consumers also value authent

24、icity and personal relationships.“It also helps if it is a place where one can feel safe and secure,protected from not only disturbing staff but also from aggressive promotional activities,” the authors write.“The place does not have to be a splendid flagship store.People can build attachments with

25、quite ordinary places,as long as the place meets the above criteria(標(biāo)準(zhǔn)) of familiarity,authenticity and security.” The authors gained these insights from interviews with a sample of French consumers who talked about their experiences with the places they most treasure: cafés,restaurants,department

26、stores,concert halls,and libraries.The final phase of the study focused on patrons of a particular French wine bar. The authors also found that once consumers bond with a commercial space,they are willing to make efforts or sacrifices to support it.Satisfied customers may pay higher tips,volunteer

27、to help the business,and serve as ambassadors,linking other consumers to the business.“Consumers treat their special place as a treasured gift and in return want to support the establishment beyond what is expected of them as customers,” the authors conclude. 【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇說明文。主要通過研究表明消費(fèi)者會對某些地方產(chǎn)生親密感和忠
