Question

【題目】Like every successful person, Lang Lang went through years of hard and lonely practice before making his name. He began to take piano lessons at the age of three. With great talent, he won his first competition at the age of five. Lang's father pushed little Lang very hard to succeed. When he was nine, Lang went to learn music in Beijing. His father even quit(離職) his job and moved to Beijing with his son.

Then came the difficult time. “I got fired(開除) by the piano teacher six months later. It totally destroyed my piano dream.”Lang recalled(回憶).

Hearing_about_his_son's_failure,_Lang's_father_was_so_angry_that_he_told_Lang_to_jump_off_a_building! Of course Lang didn't jump, and pressure(壓力) soon changed into power. His big break came at the age of 17, when he won worldwide fame(名聲) at “Gala of the Century”， a wellknown concert in Chicago, U. S. Lang said it was his true love of music and the piano that made him keep working.“At the age of two, I fell in love with the piano when I saw Tom—the cat playing it in the cartoon，” said Lang.“Today, playing classical(古典的) music on the piano is still the happiest thing in the world for me.”
