The Campanile by Aditi Sriram 20 pt please helppp

Every evening in Berkeley, California, at six o'clock, the bells in the Campanile ring long, loud and clear. The Campanile, also known as the Sather Tower, is a bell tower and clock tower at the University of California in Berkeley (UC Berkeley). Standing at 307 feet, it is the third-tallest bell tower in the world and is visible throughout Berkeley-and beyond. A bell tower contains one or more bells. The Campanile in Berkeley is named after the Italian word "campana," meaning bell. Another English word for a bell tower is a "belfry," but in Berkeley, everyone refers to the tower as the Campanile. The tallest bell tower in the world is in the United Kingdom, also at a university. It is called the Joseph Chamberlain Memorial Clock Tower at the University of Birmingham. While many people know about the Campanile, for a long time few people knew who actually rang the bells. Many stories floated about the town. Was it a blind lady who rang the bells? UC Berkeley students? A group of squirrels, fat and strong? Ghosts from all over Tourists like to visit the Campanile, but not people in Berkeley! When asked how many
bells there are in the Campanile, the answer is different each time. Some think there is
only one bell; others think there are two. Still, others believe there are lots of bells-big,
little, high-pitched, and low-pitched-that sing across town every night.
At last Mr. Duncan, known all over town as the quiet, old librarian, came forward and
shared a secret. He was the bell-ringer and had been ringing the bells in the Campanile for
decades. Not only that, but he had been training students at UC Berkeley to take over
when he is no longer able to get to the very top of the tower and ring the bells.
"Depending on my mood each day, I choose a song to play for the town," Mr. Duncan said
in an interview. "The fog and the sunshine in Berkeley make me feel different things on
different days. I will play a happy, or serious or mournful song, accordingly."
When Mr. Duncan was asked how many songs he knew, he said, "probably five-hundred
songs."
Where did Mr. Duncan learn to play the bells?
"When I was a college student I studied abroad, spending time at Oxford University. The
bell towers were my favorite part of the old architecture. I would spend lots of time with my
friends, or reading my textbooks, leaning against the tall structures. One evening I heard
the bells come alive and my heart began to race. I had never heard such beautiful music
before. I could feel the sound vibrating through my body. It was through the evening sky
and reaching as far as the setting sun. I knew immediately that I had to get closer to those
bells."
Mr. Duncan spent a year learning how to play the bells from one of Oxford University's bellringing experts, Mr. Cacophonix. "He was very patient with me," Mr. Duncan said.
After returning to Berkeley, Mr. Duncan continued to work on his technique by practicing in
the Campanile. He even wrote his compositions.
"After a quiet day at the library," he said, "it makes me happy to break the silence with such
powerful music."
