His talent and charm have made him the No.1Chinese classical artist in the world. And he played in the grand Beijing Olympic opening ceremony in 2008, watched by a TV audience of 5 billion.
Lang Lang, 26, is the first Chinese pianist to play with the world's top orchestras (管弦樂隊(duì)），making his first appearance at the Carnegie Hall in New York at 18, while still a student.
Lang's charm and fondness for sharp clothes make him a natural fit to represent China's new international image. According to the British newspaper the Times, "The Lang Lang effect" is responsible for driving 36 million Chinese children to learn the piano.
Now in China children are learning Chopin and Western orchestras are playing sold-out tours across Chinese cities. But can China ever introduce its own music to the West? Lang is trying. His cooperation（合作） with the London Symphony Orchestra this month includes a performance of Dragon Songs, an album of traditional Chinese classics.
Behind the international recognition, however, is a fascinating story of a gifted child. Lang grew up with his father's own musical ambition(抱負(fù)) and high expectations. It is not hard to imagine how boring it must be to practice the piano ever3r day. Lang said that he once hated his hands and the piano. He got his right hand hurt six years ago and had to rest. "That was the best month," he says. "I had a date. I saw a Broadway show and saw Britney Spears in concert."
46. What is the main reason why Lang Lang is the No.1 Chinese classical artist in the world?
A. He played in the Beijing Olympic opening ceremony in 2008.
B. He usually plays with the world's top orchestras.
C. He tries to introduce Chinese music to Western countries.

47. Lang Lang is trying his best to ______ now.

D. prepare for a performance of Dragon songs
48. Which of the following about Lang Lang is true?

B. He had a good rest and enjoyed himself because he got his right hand hurt. .
C. He has had a great musical ambition since his childhood. .

Arthur sat at the desk in his room, pencil in hand. He had to write a story for his English class by Friday. “I don’t know what to write about,” he complained to his dog Toby, who was asleep at his feet. Arthur was talkative when speaking to his friends, yet he had trouble finding words when he had to write.
By bedtime Arthur had drawn a picture of Toby smiling. He had drawn a tree with its branches blowing in the strong wind. He had also written a note asking his friend Lee to go to the movies on Saturday. But he had not written a single word of his story.
On Wednesday, Mrs. Solomon, Arthur’s English teacher, asked the class to turn in the first draft of their stories. His heart sinking, Arthur turned in the only work he had—the page with his name, the drawings and the note.
Arthur wasn’t surprised when Mrs. Solomon asked him to stay after class the next day. But he was surprised by what she said to him. “This is an attractive story, Arthur. The dog, the movie, the tree in the wind—I can’t wait to find out how they all fit together.”
“That isn’t my story, Mrs. Solomon,” Arthur admitted. “I haven’t been able to think of one yet.”
“Oh, I think you have the seed(種子of a story there,” Mrs. Solomon replied, “Look at your note and the pictures and see if a story comes to you.”
That night Arthur sat at his desk, and this is what he wrote: “One Saturday Mike went downstairs to meet his friend Julio at the cinema. It looked as if it might rain, so Mike carried his umbrella. Suddenly a big storm blew in, bending the trees. The noise of the wind sounded like the barking of Mike’s dog Toby. Toby really hated storms and barked whenever he wanted to be let inside. Then Mike realized that it wasn’t the sound of the wind. It was Toby. The dog was running after him down the busy street, barking. The sound was filled with blame. Mike felt guilty because he had left Toby outside. He turned and headed home with Toby running beside him. Mike let Toby in the door just as the rain started to pour down.”
Arthur had a story in the end. The last thing he did was to write his name proudly at the top of the page.
1.Why did Arthur turn in the page with only his name, the drawings and the note at first?
A.Because he had no time to fit them together.
B.Because he had difficulty in writing a story.
C.Because he wasn’t willing to do his homework.
D.Because he wanted to show his talent for drawing.
2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 6 probably mean?
A.Toby is an imaginative and lovely dog.
B.The small tree will grow into a big one.
C.His friend Lee can give him a lot of support.
D.He can develop his story based on the first draft.
3.What kind of teacher do you think Mrs. Solomon is ?
A. She is a strict teacher B. She is a wise teacher
C. She is an honest teacher D. She is an energetic teacher
4.What can we infer(推斷from the story?
A. Arthur is a shy and quiet student
B. Arthur isn’t very satisfied with his story
C. There will be a storm on Saturday
D. Encouragement is important in teaching
