My idol is a great musician. I have admired him since I learned about his life for the first time when I was a little boy. He is known as the “King of Music”. Have you guessed who he is
Yes, he is Ludwig van Beethoven. He was born in Germany in 1770. In fact, at first, he didn't even like music very much. His father made him practice playing the piano for four hours every day.

People liked his performances. Mozart, a very famous musician at that time, predicted(预测)that the talented boy would have a great musical career.
But life is always unexpected. At the age of 26, Beethoven began to lose his hearing because of an illness. However, he worked even harder. He once said that he would never give in to his fate(命运). I really like the music he wrote, especially the piece of work titled “Hero”. It was written for Napoleon, who fought bravely and won a lot of battles.
I have been playing and practicing the piano because of my admiration for Beethoven. Whenever I meet an obstacle(障碍), I think of my idol. A lot of unfortunate things happened to him, but the great musician never gave up. He worked hard to create new music throughout his life. I am appreciative of the great influence he has had on me.

A. Beethoven. B. Mozart.
C. Napoleon. D. The writer.
51. When did Beethoven start to perform
A. In 1770.

D. When he was eighteen years old.
52. What can we learn from the passage

D. Never give up; never give in to fate.

I have been playing and practicing the piano because of my admiration for Beethoven. Whenever I meet an obstacle(障碍), I think of my idol. A lot of unfortunate things happened to him, but the great musician never gave up. He worked hard to create new music throughout his life. I am appreciative of the great influence he has had on me.
