8、rifice. He quit his concertmasters job, which he loved, and my mother stayed behind in Shenyang to keep working at her job at the science institute to support us. They both warned me, Being a pianist is hard. Can you live without your mother I said, I want my mother! But I knew I needed to be in Bei

9、jing. In America, people often move and start over. But it is not in China, not in those days. Suddenly my father and I were newcomersoutsiders. To the others around us, we spoke with funny northern accents. The only apartment we could find for the money we had was in an unheated building, with five

10、 families sharing one bathroom. My father cooked, cleaned and looked after me. He became a house-husband, basically. We lived far from my school, and since the bus was too expensive, my father would drive me on his bicycle every day. It was an hour-and-a-half trip each way, and I was a heavy boy, mu

11、ch heavier than I am as an adult. He did this in winter too. Imagine! During the coldest nights, when I practiced piano, my father would lie in my bed so it would be warm when I was tired. I was miserable, but not from the poverty or pressure. My new teacher in Beijing didnt like me. You have no tal

We still had very little money-my father had to borrow $ 5 000 to pay for a trip to the International Young Pianists Competition in Ettlingen, Germany, in 1994, when I was 12

15、. I realized later how much pressure he was under as I watched footage (电影胶片) of the contest. Tears streamed down his face when it was announced that Id wonearning enough money to pay back our loan. It was soon clear I couldnt stay in China forever. To become a world-class musician, I had to play on

16、 the worlds bigger stages. So in 1997, my father and I moved again, this time to Philadelphia, so I could attend The Curtis Institute of Music. Finally our money worries were easing. The school paid for us an apartment and even lent me a Steinway (斯坦威钢琴). At night, I would sneak into the living room

17、 just to touch the keys. Now that I was in America, I wanted to become famous, but my new teachers reminded me that I had a lot to learn. I spent two years practicing, and by 1999 I had worked hard enough for fortune to take over. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra heard me play and liked me, but orches

18、tra schedules were set far in advance. I thought I might join them in a few years. The next morning, I got a call. The great pianist Andre Watts, who was to play the Gala Benefit Evening at Chicagos Ravinia Festival, had become ill. I was asked to substitute him. That performance was, for me, the mo

19、ment. After violinist Isaac Stern introduced me, I played Tchaikovskys Piano Concerto No.1. My fathers mouth hung open throughout the entire piece.

24、ed and uncharted. Until about a century ago, the deep-ocean floor was completely inaccessible, hidden beneath waters averaging over 3600 meters deep. Totally without light and subjected to intense pressures hundreds of times greater than at the Earths surface, the deep-ocean bottom is a hostile envi

25、ronment to humans, in some ways as forbidding and remote as the void of outer space. Although researchers have taken samples of deep-ocean rocks and sediments for over a century, the first detailed global investigation of the ocean bottom did not actually start until 1968, with the beginning of the

26、National Science Foundations Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP). Using techniques first developed for the offshore oil and gas industry, the DSDPs drill ship, the Glomar Challenger, was able to maintain a steady position on the oceans surface and drill in very deep waters, extracting samples of sedime

27、nts and rock from the ocean floor. The Glomar Challenger completed 96 voyages in a 15-year research program that ended in November 1983. During this time, the vessel logged 600000 kilometers and took almost 20000 core samples of seabed sediments and rocks at 624 drilling sites around the world. The

28、Glomar Challengers core samples have allowed geologists to reconstruct what the planet looked like hundreds of millions of years ago and to calculate what it will probably look like millions of years in the future. Today, largely on the strength of evidence gathered during the Glomar Challengers voy

29、ages, nearly all earth scientists agree on the theories of plate tectonics and continental drift that explain many of the geological processes that shape the Earth. The cores of sediment drilled by the Glomar Challenger have also yielded information critical to understanding the worlds past climates

30、. Deep-ocean sediments provide a climatic record stretching back hundreds of millions of years, because they are largely isolated from the mechanical erosion and the intense chemical and biological activity that rapidly destroy much land-based evidence of past climates. This record has already provi

31、ded insights into the patterns and causes of past climatic changeinformation that may be used to predict future climates.The author refers to the ocean bottom as a frontier in Paragraph 1 because it _.Ais not a popular area for scientific researchBcontains a wide variety of life formsCattracts coura

32、geous explorersDis an unknown territory 11.Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.ABehavior of the players.BThe attitude of the spectators.CThe attitude of the players.DThe number of medals. 12.The idea of test-tube babies may make you either delighted at the wonders of mode

33、rn medicine or irritated while considering the moral, or legal, or technological implications of starting life in a laboratory. But if youve ever been pregnant yourself, one thing is certain. You wonder what its like to carry a test-tube baby. Are these pregnancies normal Are the babies normal The e

34、arliest answers come from Australia, where a group of medical experts at the Queen Victoria Medical Center in Melbourne have taken a look at the continents first nine successful invitro pregnancies. The Australians report that the pregnancies themselves seemed to have proceeded according to plan, bu

35、t at birth some unusual trends did show up seven of the nine babies turned out to be girls. Six of the nine were delivered by Caesarean section. And one baby, a twin, was born with a serious heart defect and a few days later developed life-threatening problems. What does it all mean Even the doctors

36、 dont know for sure, because the numbers are so small. The proportion of girls to boys is high, but until there are many more test-tube babies no one will know whether thats something that just happened to be like that or something special that happens when egg meets sperm in a test tube instead of

37、a fallopian tube. The same thin is true of the single heart defect. It usually shows up in only 15 out of 60000 births in that part of Australia, but the fact that it occurred in one out of nine test-tube babies does not necessarily mean that they are at special risk. One thing the doctors can expla

38、in is the high number of Caesareans. Most of the mothers were older, had long histories of fertility problems and in some cases had had surgery on the fallopian tubes, all of which made them likely candidates for Caesareans anyway. The Australian researchers report that they are quite encouraged. Al

39、l the babies are now making normal progress, even the twin with the birth defects.What concern will the test-tube baby raise according to the passageAWhether the pregnancies of test-tube babies would be normal.BWhether the test-tube babies would be encouraged.CWhy the proportion of defected babies i

40、s so high.DWhy the number of Caesareans is so high. 13.Music to My Ears As a boy growing up in Shenyang, China, I practiced the piano six hours a day. I loved the instrument.
