When little Midori was two years old, she often Climbed onto the piano bench and reached for the violin that belonged to her mother, a 38-year-old professional musician.
"Please don’t touch my violin, Midori," her mother scolded. The violin was, after all, worth more than $ 20 000. A professional musician never owns inexpensive musical instruments.
But Midori persisted; she longed to handle the graceful instrument that made beautiful sounds. Finally, on her third birthday, Midori was handed a package: a tiny violin, about half the normal size. That was Midori’s first violin.
Almost from the moment Midori was born, her mother knew she was sensitive to music. For several years mother and daughter practiced together day after day. She-was eager to learn. She loved music from the bottom of her heart. Failure often led to tears ,though she never once turned from the instrument. She just could not stop her love for music. Instead, she persisted until the problem was overcome.
One day Johnson, an American musician, heard Midori playing the violin. He couldn’t believe she was just eight years old. "She must make a tape and I will take it to the United States, "the musician said.
A famous American violin teacher heard the tape. He, too, had difficulty believing his ears. The playing was absolutely astonishing. He immediately accepted her as a pupil and recommended her for a full scholarship. In 1982 ,Midori and her mother moved to Neat York city, leaving behind a comfortable life in Japan.
选项
A、The violin was too expensive.
B、She was too young to play the violin.
C、The violin was too big for her.
D、Her mother wanted her to play the piano.
答案
A
解析
Why was Midori not allowed to touch the violin when she was only two?
四个选项中violin的出现频率较高,另外还有另一种乐器piano。由此可以推断,本题的内容可能涉及某个人与乐器之间的关系。
文中提到"The violin was,after all,worth more than $20 000".Midori的妈妈拥有价值超过2万美元的小提琴,两岁的Midori不能乱碰,是因为琴的价格昂贵。故正确答案为A)。
