Over the past few years，software makers and independent developers have begun to offer a wide variety of business applications for free，but there is also software that is worth paying for．

Here are a few things to consider when deciding whether you go free or pay the fee．

Is the Software Mission Critical（關(guān)鍵的）?

If an application is critical to the day-to-day running of your business，it may be best to spring for the cost of licensing the software．Take Photoshop，for instance．If yon run a small design firm where you are working with the program every day to fill client orders ,it's probably worth paying for the desktop version with full functionality and support services．Photoshop Express may be great for occasional users and students but may not be the best option for heavy users．

Is the Software Client-Facing?

It might be a good idea to cut costs on an application such as PDF creation software，and there are a lot of free online tools that allow you to save files in the PDF format．However,many of these services place advertising within the PDF file．Sending documents to clients with ads from another company may not leave the best impression．

How much Support Do You Need?

Free desktop and server software sounds like a great idea；just think of all the money you’ll save．However, if you are tech savvy（通曉科技的），you may run into a few problems getting the freeware set up on your machine．When considering free software you should also keep in mind what kind of support you think yon will need．Paying for software with free support may be cheaper in the long run than getting free software and then paying someone to help yon use it．

Are There Limits to How You Can Use It?

Finally, free software is often a stripped-down（精簡的）version of licensed software．It’s important to look closely at the capabilities of the free options to see whether

Consider how often yon will use the application and what kind of functionality you need before going with a free option．Yon may get lucky and find everything you need in a free application, but you may also find that when it comes to software. The best things aren’t free．

76．What is the main idea of the passage? （Please answer within 20 words．）

This week in our Foreign Student Series，we discuss rules about getting a job while studying in the United States．

International students are permitted to work for the college or university they attend or for a business at the school．But the business must directly provide a service to students．You could work at the bookstore，for example，but not for a construction company that is building something on campus（校園）．Also，a foreign student cannot displace an American citizen in a job．International students can work twenty hours a week while attending classes；more during school breaks．You can work until you complete your studies．

Foreign students normally cannot take a job that has no connection to their school．But the government may give permission if students are suddenly faced with a situation that is out of their control．Examples include large medical bills。The loss of financial aid or an unexpected change in the financial condition of their source of support．Students must also meet other conditions．They must have attended their American school for at least one year．Government approval is given on a case-by-case basis．Students must re-apply after a year if they want to continue all off-campus job．

Foreign students who will be attending graduate school（研究生院）can apply for some jobs before they come to the United States．A good example is a university job like a teaching or research assistantship．Some schools pay their assistants．Others provide free education in return．

Many do both．Graduate assistants might teach, give tests，grade work, assist professors with research and hold office hours．Many universities now provide language training to foreign teaching assistants to help them improve their English．Some schools require foreign students to pass an English speaking test before they arc permitted to teach．

International student offices at schools have to provide information on students each term to the Department of Homeland Security．Students who violate the terms of their visa―for example，

By working off-campus without permission―could be sent home．

Accustomed though we are to speaking of the films made before 1927 as “silent”，the film has never been，in the full sense of the word，silent．From the very beginning，music was regarded as a necessary accompaniment（伴奏）；when the Lumiere films were shown at the first public film exhibition in the United States in February 1896，they were accompanied by piano on popular tunes． At first，the music played bore no special relationship to the films；an accompaniment of any kind was sufficient．Within a very short time, however the incongruity of playing lively music to a serious film became apparent，and film pianists began to take some care in matching their pieces to the mood of the film．

As movie theaters grew in number and importance．a(chǎn) violinist would be added to the pianist in certain cases，and in the larger movie theaters small orchestras（管弦樂隊(duì)）were formed．For a number of years the selection of music for each film program rested entirely in the hands of the conductor or leader of the orchestra，and very often the qualification for holding such a position was not skill or taste so much as the ownership of a large personal library of musical pieces．Since the conductor seldom saw the films until the night before they were to be shown （if indeed，the conductor was lucky enough to see them then），the musical arrangement was normally improvised （臨時準(zhǔn)備） in the greatest hurry．

To help meet this difficulty，film distributing companies started the practice of publishing suggestions for musical accompaniments．In 1909，for example，the Edison Company began issuing（發(fā)行）with their films such suggestions of mood as “pleasant”，“sad”，“l(fā)ively”．The suggestions became clearer，and so appeared the musical sheet containing indications of mood，the titles of suitable pieces of music，and precise directions to show where one piece led into the next．

Certain films had music especially composed for them．The most famous of these early special scores（樂譜）was that composed and arranged for D．W Griffith’s film Birth of a Nation．which was shown in 1915．

A．Conductors．           B．Pianists．

C．movie music is a kind of music with a history of one hundred years．

A．being different              B．being inharmonious

B．the taste in the mood of a film should be basically important

C．a(chǎn) pianist is more important than a violinist when accompanying
