Unit 4 Meeting the muse
一、阅读理解(本大题共9小题,共18.0分)
A
"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams," Eleanor Roosevelt once said. If we want to accomplish anything in life, let us remember that we should never give up. The composer Frederick Loewe, whom we remember for his scores for memorable musicals that include My Fair Lady,Gigi and Camelot, was not always famous. He learned to play the piano from the great masters of Europe and achieved huge success as a musician and composer in his early years.
But when he immigrated to the United States, he failed as a pianist. For quite a while he tried other types of work. But he never gave up his dream and continued to play the piano and write music. During those years, he could not always afford to make ends meet by playing the piano.
One day, bent over the keyboard, he heard nothing but the music that he played with inspiration. When he finished and looked up, he was surprised to find that he had audiences—three men who were seated on the floor. They said nothing and made no movement toward the piano. Instead they dug into their pockets, took out all the money they had, placed it on the piano and walked out, empty-handed. Deeply touched by the beauty of his music, these men recognized excellence and responded to it.
Whatever you do, try your best. If what you do is worth doing and if you believe that who you are is of value, then you cannot afford to be content with mediocrity (平庸). When you choose the path of excellence through this life, you will bring out the best in yourself and receive the best it can offer in return.
