个⼈经历
Bob: I attended a small college outside of Chicago. I would make trips into the city a number of times each year. We always had the best time finding good music to listen to.
我在远离芝加哥的⼀个⼩学院读书。每年，我会往返芝加哥⼏次。我们总是有最佳的时机去找很棒的⾳乐听。

⼤多数时候，我们会买⼀张地铁卡去坐地铁。有时候我们会在学校食堂的布告栏上贴一条请求搭车的信息。
Bob: We had such a good time giving support to new musicians by telling our friends about them after we got back to school. It pleased me to know that I could add more fans. I should note that one of the musicians we heard was my older sister. I then enjoyed telling my friends about her. Our family loved music, and she was a product of that love of music.
