But do more varied jobs lead to greater p

10、roductivity? There is【 23】 to suggest that while variety certainly makes the workers life more enjoyable, it does not【 24】 make it harder.

Most of the great performers in the late 19th and early 20th centuries were born and brought up in Russia and Eastern Europe. I asked Isaac Stem

28、, one of the worlds greatest violinists the reason for this phenomenon, “It is very clear,“ he told me. “They were all Jews and Jews at the time were severely oppressed and ill treated in that part of the world. They were not allowed into the professional fields, but they were allowed to achieve exc

29、ellence on a concert stage.“ As a result, every Jewish parents dream was to have a child in the music school because it was a passport to the west. Another element in the emergence of prodigies, I found, is a society that values excellence in a certain field to nurture talent. Nowadays, the most nur

30、turing societies seem to be in the Fast East. “In Japan, a most competitive society, with stronger discipline than ours,“ says Isaac Stern, “children are ready to test their limits every day in many fields, including music. When Western music came to Japan after World War II, that music not only bec

31、ame part of their daily lives, but it became a discipline as well. The Koreans and Chinese as we know, are just as highly motivated as the Japanese.“ Thats a good thing, because even prodigies must work hard. Next to hard work, biological inheritance plays an important role in the making of a prodig

32、y. J.S. Bach, for example, was the top of several generations of musician, and fear of his sons had significant careers in music. 46 Jewish parents in Eastern Europe longed for their children to attend music school because _. （ A） it would allow them access to a better life in the west （ B） Jewish c

34、e on students who want to achieve excellences （ B） treasure talent and provide opportunities for its full development （ C） encourage people to compete with each other （ D） promise talented children high positions 48 Japan is described in the passage as a country that attaches importance to _. （ A） a

35、ll round development （ B） the learning of Western music （ C） strict training of children （ D） variety in academic studies 49 Which of the following contributes to the emergence of musical prodigies according to the passage? （ A） natural gift （ B） extensive knowledge of music （ C） very early training

36、 （ D） a prejudice-free society 50 Which of the following titles best summarizes the main idea of the passage? （ A） Jewish Contribution to Music （ B） Training of Musicians in the World （ C） Music and Society （ D） The Making of Prodigies 50 On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Clarke, dressed for going out, too

37、k her handbag with her money and her key in it, pulled the door behind her to lock it and went to the Over 60s Club. She always went there on Thursday. It was a nice outing for an old woman who lived alone. At six oclock she came home, let herself in and at once smelt cigarette smoke. Cigarette smok

38、e in her house? How? Had somebody got in? She checked the back door and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual. There was no sign of forced entry. Had anything been taken? She went from room to room, checking. Yes, some things were missing-her small radio, her spare watch, a camera. That

39、 was all, she thought; but she couldnt be sure just yet. She was annoyed, of course, but rather glad that nothing had been thrown about. Over a cup of tea she wondered whether someone might have a key that fitted her front door-“a master key“ perhaps. So she stayed at home the following Thursday. No

40、thing happened. Was anyone watching her movements? On the Thursday after that she went out at her usual time, dressed as usual, but she didnt go to the club. Instead she took a short cut home again, letting herself in through her garden and the back door. She settled down to wait. It was just after

41、four oclock when the front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and then she heard her letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle of boiling water in her hand, she moved quietly towards the front door. A long piece of wire appeared through the lett

42、er-box, and then a hand. The wire turned and caught around the knob on the door-lock. Mrs Clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand. There was a shout outside, and the skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove. The wire fell to the floor, the hand was pulled back, and Mrs. C

43、larke heard the sound of running feet. That evening she reported the matter to the police. They were not too pleased, but they came and took away the wire and the skin. “It was only self-protection,“ she told the officer.“ An old woman must try to look after herself.“ With the help of a doctor the p

49、nd for more than a decade, but until 1993 it was merely a technological imagination. Today information superhighway has become an everyday topic and is making its entry into our lives.
