When Midori was two years old, she often climbed onto the piano bench and reached for the violin that belonged to [22]her mother, a 30-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 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 American 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. Thus in 1982, Midori and her mother moved to New York City, leaving behind a comfortable life in Japan.
22. What did Midori’s mother do?
23. Why was Midori forbidden to touch her mother’s violin when she was only two years old?
24. What did Johnson ask Midori to do?
25. Why did Midori move to the United States?
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
推理题。录音提到,“The violin was,after all,worth more than $20,000毕竟小提琴价值2万多美元”,所以Midori的妈妈不让她碰,故A为正确答案。
