[4]The audience did not hesitate to applaud loudly as the famous composer walked out onto the stage for the first time in 12 years.The theatre’s musical director， Michael Umlauf， joined him and together the two men took charge of the orchestra.For more than an hour， Beethoven jumped about in front of the orchestra， waving his arms wildly in the air， and madly turning the pages of his score.The whole time， Umlauf stood quietly by his side， skillfully guiding the orchestra through the most amazing piece of music the world had ever known.

【参考译文】
大家都知道路德维希·凡·贝多芬是一个音乐天才， 但或许很少有人知道《D小调第九交响曲》的创作过程以及这部交响曲首演的故事。
路德维希·凡·贝多芬是一位德国作曲家。他被认为是音乐史上最伟大的作曲家之一。二十多岁时， 他就以高超的钢琴技巧而闻名， 但后来开始逐渐失聪。贝多芬想过放弃， 但最后还是继续进行音乐创作。这位作曲家在与耳聋抗争中受到启发， 创作了一些令人惊叹的作品， 包括九部交响曲、五首钢琴曲和一部歌剧！直到1827年去世前， 贝多芬才停止创作， 他一共创作了130多部音乐作品， 其中包括《D小调第九交响曲》。
1824年2月的一天， 在奥地利维也纳的小房子里， 路德维希·凡·贝多芬坐在椅子上直起身笑起来。这位著名的德国作曲家的第九交响曲终于完成了。创作这部交响曲花了他好几年的时间， 现在乐谱中最后一个音符终于写完。这时贝多芬54岁， 他并不知道这将是他的最后一部交响曲。他自豪地在页面底部署下名字， 同时努力想象人们第一次听到它时会有什么反应。
在维也纳一个非常著名的剧院里，演出前，后台的气氛非常紧张。贝多芬担心这场表演将会是一场灾难。毕竟， 一个听不到自己的管弦乐队的指挥， 即使他是音乐天才， 能有什么用呢？
当这位著名的作曲家12年来第一次走上舞台时， 观众毫不犹豫地热烈鼓起掌来。剧院音乐指挥迈克尔·奥姆洛夫也走上台和他一起指挥乐队。在一个多小时的时间里， 贝多芬在乐队前面跳跃着， 在空中忘情地挥舞着手臂， 疯狂地翻动乐谱。而奥姆洛夫一直安静地站在他身边， 巧妙地指挥管弦乐队演奏这首世界上最神奇的音乐作品。
最后， 交响乐在欢乐的音符中结束， 观众都跳了起来， 鼓掌、欢呼， 挥舞着他们的帽子。但贝多芬的头还埋在乐谱里继续指挥。直到歌手卡洛琳·昂格尔拉着他的手臂转向观众， 这位伟人才意识到他的交响乐取得了成功。
后来， 卡洛琳回忆起不止贝多芬感到惊讶， “观众也感到震惊，”她灿烂地笑着说道。“大多数观众都不知道他已经失聪！剧院里唯一没有听到并且永远也不会听到这部交响乐的那个人竟然是它的创作者。”

its first show went.
Ludwig van Beethoven was a German composer③.He is regarded as④
one of the greatest composers in the history of⑤ music.In his twenties，
he had been very famous for his skills on the piano⑥， but then he began
to lose his hearing.Beethoven thought about giving up， but in the end he
continued to write music.[1]Inspired by his struggles⑦ with deafness，
the composer produced some amazing pieces， including nine
symphonies， five piano pieces， and an opera！[2]He proceeded⑧ with
the composition until his death in 1827， writing more than 130 musical
works， including⑨ his Symphony No.9 in D minor.

One day in February 1824， at his little house in Vienna， Austria，
Ludwig van Beethoven sat back in his chair and smiled.The famous
German composer’s ninth symphony was finally completed.[3]Writing
the piece had taken several years， and now the final notes⑩ had been
added to the score .At 54 years of age， he didn’t know that this would
be his last symphony.As he proudly signed his name at the bottom of the
page， Beethoven tried to imagine how people would respond when they
heard it for the first time.
Before the performance， the backstage atmosphere at a very
famous theatre in Vienna was tense .Beethoven was afraid that the
performance would be a disaster.After all， what use is a conductor who
could not hear his orchestra — even if he is a musical genius？
[4]The audience did not hesitate to applaud loudly as the famous
composer walked out onto the stage for the first time in 12 years.The
theatre’s musical director， Michael Umlauf， joined him and together
the two men took charge of the orchestra.For more than an hour，
Beethoven jumped about in front of the orchestra， waving his arms
wildly in the air， and madly turning the pages of his score.The whole
time， Umlauf stood quietly by his side， skillfully guiding the
orchestra through the most amazing piece of music the world had ever
known.
As the final， joyous note signalled the end of the symphony，
the audience jumped to their feet， clapping， cheering and waving their
hats.But Beethoven continued conducting， his head buried in the
score.[5]It was not until Caroline Unger， one of the singers， took his
arm and turned him to face the audience that the great man realised his
symphony was a success.
Later， Caroline remembered that Beethoven was not the only one
who got a surprise. “The audience was shocked as well ，” she said
with a broad smile.“Most of them had no idea that he was deaf！The
one person in the room who didn’t hear the symphony — and never
would — was the very man who composed it.”

【参考译文】
大家都知道路德维希·凡·贝多芬是一个音乐天才， 但或许很
少有人知道《D小调第九交响曲》的创作过程以及这部交响曲首演
的故事。
路德维希·凡·贝多芬是一位德国作曲家。他被认为是音乐史上最
伟大的作曲家之一。二十多岁时， 他就以高超的钢琴技巧而闻名，
但后来开始逐渐失聪。贝多芬想过放弃， 但最后还是继续进行音乐创
作。这位作曲家在与耳聋抗争中受到启发， 创作了一些令人惊叹的作
品， 包括九部交响曲、五首钢琴曲和一部歌剧！直到1827年去世前，
贝多芬才停止创作， 他一共创作了130多部音乐作品， 其中包括《D
小调第九交响曲》。
1824年2月的一天， 在奥地利维也纳的小房子里， 路德维
希·凡·贝多芬坐在椅子上直起身笑起来。这位著名的德国作曲家的第
九交响曲终于完成了。创作这部交响曲花了他好几年的时间， 现在乐
谱中最后一个音符终于写完。这时贝多芬54岁， 他并不知道这将是他
的最后一部交响曲。他自豪地在页面底部署下名字， 同时努力想象人
们第一次听到它时会有什么反应。
在维也纳一个非常著名的剧院里，演出前，后台的气氛非常紧
张。贝多芬担心这场表演将会是一场灾难。毕竟， 一个听不到自己的
管弦乐队的指挥， 即使他是音乐天才， 能有什么用呢？
当这位著名的作曲家12年来第一次走上舞台时， 观众毫不犹豫地
热烈鼓起掌来。剧院音乐指挥迈克尔·奥姆洛夫也走上台和他一起指挥
乐队。在一个多小时的时间里， 贝多芬在乐队前面跳跃着， 在空中
忘情地挥舞着手臂， 疯狂地翻动乐谱。而奥姆洛夫一直安静地站在他
身边， 巧妙地指挥管弦乐队演奏这首世界上最神奇的音乐作品。
最后， 交响乐在欢乐的音符中结束， 观众都跳了起来， 鼓掌、
欢呼， 挥舞着他们的帽子。但贝多芬的头还埋在乐谱里继续指挥。直
到歌手卡洛琳·昂格尔拉着他的手臂转向观众， 这位伟人才意识到他
的交响乐取得了成功。
后来， 卡洛琳回忆起不止贝多芬感到惊讶， “观众也感到震
惊，”她灿烂地笑着说道。“大多数观众都不知道他已经失聪！剧院
里唯一没有听到并且永远也不会听到这部交响乐的那个人竟然是它的
创作者。”

（2024·烟台高一下月考）Over 40 years ago， a country music DJ
convention （大会） was held every year in Nashville， Tennessee.Many
country performers used to attend the convention to give their
performances.Fans would go to Nashville hoping to see their favourite
performers.In the end， so many fans began showing up in Nashville that
a festival named Fan Fair was born.
The first Fan Fair was held in April 1972， in Nashville for four
days.Some of country music’s biggest stars attended.There were about
fifty thousand fans.The first Fan Fair was so successful that planning
began almost immediately for 1973.The date was changed to June， when
the weather would be better.Over one hundred thousand fans attended the
second Fan Fair.
Every year brought so many performers and fans to Fan Fair that， in
1982， it was moved to the Tennessee State Fairgrounds.Fan Fair stayed
at the fairgrounds for another nineteen years.
There was always the unexpected during the festival.In 1974，
former Beatle Paul McCartney attended.In 1992， more than six hundred
reporters from Europe， Asia， and South America went to cover the
appearance of a popular star， Billy Ray Cyrus， who had introduced a
new country line dance.In 1996， Garth Brooks， who made a surprise
appearance， signed autographs （签名） for 23 hours.
In 2001， Fan Fair returned to downtown Nashville as the world’s
biggest country music festival.Now， over one hundred and twenty-five
thousand country music fans go to Nashville every June.As you can
imagine， those who want to attend Fan Fair must plan ahead.For
example， they need to buy a ticket several months ahead of time.Of
course， there’s much more to prepare.

（2024·徐州高一下期末）The habit of thrift （节俭） was acquired
by every one of Father’s family.In all his life， he never gave me a
nickel.As a boy， I did not approve of his policy.He never lost an
opportunity to tell me where and when I could earn some money.As a
result of his warning， I frequently worked for neighbours with the
understanding that I was to have every penny I earned.Father rarely
borrowed from my savings.When he did， he never failed to keep his
promise for payment.He never offered any advice， unless asked， as to
how I was to invest my earnings.If I invested and lost， he remarked，
“This is part of your experience.Live and learn.”I thought then that he
was unpleasant and unsympathetic.I know better now.
Today we have “thrift days” and all sorts of devices for
encouraging economy.To be frank about the matter， we have given up
the very core of thrift.By that I mean the earning factor.In Father’s
view， earning was a necessity.Someone has said that desire and necessity
are the dynamic forces in social progress.Wealthy parents continue to hope
against hope in their attempt to encourage thrift as a habit.In every middle
school， college and university， the students who experience work are
the only ones who really know the meaning of thrift.
A progressive doctrine of thrift involves earning， saving and
spending.This cannot be taught in the classroom.Thrift is not a lone
virtue； it is vitally related to all the other fundamental virtues.My habit
of thrift gives me a strong hatred for waste.Millions of people in the world
suffer from the lack of necessary food， clothing and shelter.The waste of
the rich would， if put into use， meet the need of millions in poverty.
