When Midori was two years old, she often climbed onto the piano bench and reached fro the violin that belonged to her mother, a 38 year old professional musician.
"Please don’t touch, Midori," her mother scolded. The violin was, after all, worth more than $20,000.
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.
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. Failure often led to tears, though she never once turned from the instrument. Instead, she persisted until the problem was overcome.
One day Johnston, an American musician, heard Midori playing the violin. He couldn’t believe she was eight years old.[27]"She must make a tape and 1 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.[28]He immediately accepted her as a pupil and recommended her for a full scholarship. In 1982, Midori and her mother moved to New York City, leaving behind a comfortable life in Japan.
26. Why was Midori not allowed to touch her mother’s violin when she was two years old?
27. What did Johnston ask Midori to do according to the passage?
28. Why did Midori move to the United States with her mother?
选项
A、Go to study music in a college.
B、Make a tape of her performance.
C、Go to live in New York.
D、Give a concert in America.
答案
B
解析
细节题。短文中提到,美国音乐家Johnston听到Midori拉小提琴后不能相信Midori当时只有8岁,说一定要把Midori的曲子录下来(make a tape)带回美国,由此可知答案为[B]。
