Question

【題目】

Florida teen band The Garbage — Men is performing on the stage. The band has five members. They are Jack Berry, Ollie Gray, Harrison Paparatto, Austin Siegel and Evan Tucker. The five teens are making music from waste. The Garbage — Men band’s instruments are made from recycled things. The guitars are boxes. A horn (號(hào)) is made from pipes. The keyboard is formed from old bottles.

The band started about two years ago. Jack Berry who was in eighth grade at the time decided to make a playable, home-made guitar, after some trial-and-error (反復(fù)試驗(yàn)), he ended up building it from a cereal box, a yardstick and toothpicks. After Jack showed his creation to his friend Ollie Gray, Ollie had the idea to form a band using other home-made instruments as a way to improve recycling. “We want to show people there is more to recycling than throwing things away in the bin.” Jack, 16, told TFK. “You can actually reuse materials.”

Lastyear,theGarbage-Menplayedatlocalevents,includingfestivals,farmer’smarkets.Typically, the teens set up on the street and performed popular songs from the 1960s, including classic Beatles and crowd favourite “Wipe Out”. They talked about recycling and offered tips for how to improve theenvironment.Whiletheywereperforming,Jack’slittlebrotherTrent,11,gave out leaflets about recycling and helped sell the band’s CDs and other musical products.

The band donated the money from sales to charity. They have raised more than $2, 500 for Heifer International. The organization gives farm animals, seeds and agricultural training to people in poor countries to help end poverty and hunger. “It’s a good, sustainable-development(持續(xù)發(fā)展的) charity,”Jacksays,“Bydonatingoneanimal, you help the whole community.”

The band, all tenth graders, tries to play a show every week. They’ve also played on a Florida radio station. The teens hope to take their shows on the road by touring in other states. “Music is a really good way to get a good message across to people because it’s really close.” Jack says.
