He supported himself by giving concerts, teaching piano, and the sale of his compositions(作曲). The last 30 years of Beethoven’s life were filled with a lot of hard times, the first of which was his deafness. Beethoven’s music greatly influenced the next generation of musicians.‎ Johann Sebastian Bach(1685-1750)‎ Bach, “the father of modern music”, was born in Eisenach‎, ‎Germany. His parents died when he was nine years old, and in 1695 he went to live with his brother Johann Christoph, who was an organist(风琴手) in Ohrdruf. He stayed there until 1700. Seven years later, he moved back to Weimar, where he served as court(宫廷) organist for nine years. His music greatly influenced classical music.‎ Frederic Chopin (1810-1849)‎ Chopin was born in Zelazowa Wola‎, ‎Poland. He showed a talent for the piano at a very young age. Chopin began composing when he was still a child, but some of his early works have been lost. He gave his first public concert in 1818. Chopin was considered as the leading musician of his time.‎ Franz Schubert(1797-1828)‎ Schubert was born and died in Vienna. Unlike most of his predecessors(前辈),Schubert was not a great performer. He never had much money but he was very productive. He wrote his first masterpiece when he was only sixteen. However, he died young, before his talents had even been known.‎ ‎1. Beethoven did Not make a living by ___.‎ A. teaching students B. doing business C. selling his works D. giving concerts ‎2. Bach worked as an organist in Weimar until _____.‎ A. 1765 B. ‎1707 ‎ C. 1750 D. 1716‎ ‎3. What do we know about the four musicians ?‎ A. They all lived a hard life at their old age.‎ B. They were all good at playing the piano.‎ C. They became famous at a young age.‎ D. They were all talented musicians.‎ B After twenty-third hour at night, the house was quiet. I didn’t go to bed. Under the strong light, I looked sadly before me at a huge pile of that troublesome thing they call “books”.‎ I would have my important examination the next day. “When can I go to bed?” I asked myself. I didn’t answer, in fact I dared not.‎ As soon as the clock struck twelve, I suddenly heard and couldn’t help crying “Oh, dear! Many more books to read before I can go to bed!” We students are the most wretched creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He didn’t have to work so hard when he was a boy.‎ When the clock struck one, I felt I was hopeless now. I forgot all I had learned. I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.” My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them a few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.‎ ‎4. When the author was going over his lessons, all the others in the house were__.‎ A. asleep B. outside C. working in bed D. quietly laughing at him ‎5. The underlined word “wretched” means _______.‎ A. energetic B. disappointed C. unhappy D. hopeful ‎6. The best title for the passage would be ___.‎ A. The night before the examination B. Staying up all night C. A lazy student D. Going over my lessons C Brisbane, the capital of Queensland, is a lively city that is home to many different types of tourist attractions. In its early stages, the city grew as the agricultural and mining(采矿) industries grew, until it developed into the cultural city that it is today. It is also the third largest city in Australia.‎ Brisbane is a river city, although close to the coast, with the Brisbane‎ ‎River running through it. It is surrounded by hills and full of bridges. It is also very easy to get to a number of attractions such as the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast from Brisbane.‎ Brisbane has a number of theatres including the Lyric Theatre, Cremorne Theatre and the Playhouse Theatre which are part of the Queensland Performing Arts Centre in South Bank.‎ The area of South Bank is popular with visitors and locals especially for its relaxed parkland and manmade beach area which is popular with all ages. During the evening this area is very popular for romantic walks and the many shows.‎ Another place that is very popular with visitors especially young people is the suburb(郊区) of Fortitude Valley. It is home to the amazing Chinatown, great restaurants, popular nightclubs and bars and so on. It's not a suburb for those who like peace and quiet.‎ Brisbane is a great place to cycle, with wonderful cycle tracks(自行车道) near and along the river. If you get tired along the way, you can always get on a bus or the City Cat (central area transport service). You can take a bus with your bike. But you'd better avoid the time of day when most people are traveling to or from work, because you won't be allowed on with a bike at that time.‎ Brisbane offers plenty of things to do with activities and tours such as hot air ballooning, rock climbing, and even climbing the Brisbane‎ Story ‎Bridge.

On weekends, I would go to the village market to sell our cotton. Every time I sold something, it was good news for the whole family.‎ When I became a teenager, I wanted to study to become a secretary. By Working in an office I would be able to earn more money, which would be good for my family. I knew I was smart and that I would do a good job, but my parents refused to let me study. I listened to them and followed their advice in order not to make them unhappy.‎ Years later, some students from California came to our village. They were organizing an educational workshop for local people. We would learn new things and technology about growing cotton, and have the chance to network. This was a good chance for me to learn something new and useful. Of course I was willing to take part in it, but my parents said no again this time.‎ I have wonderful and generous parents, who are kind to everybody around them. Even when our family could hardly afford food, they would welcome guests with coffee and cookies. I knew they refused me because they wanted the best for me. I knew they were worried about me being away from them, but I knew they were wrong. Attending this workshop would be good for our family.
