Fans often only see the good side of fame. They see the happy smiles and great success of famous people. But it’s difficult for them to understand everything that comes before then. They can’t see the hard work or the hours of practice.
Li Yundi, the Chinese piano prodigy(天才), recently released his first concert recording. He talked with Teens about his art and his job.
“Of course, the job is hard work,” Li, 25, said. “You need to work hard to be a professional. But you also have to play hundreds of concerts, meet fans, and listen to critics(評論) of your music.”
In 2000, when Li was 18, he won the top prize at the International Chopin(肖邦) Competition in Warsaw, Poland. This was the first time the top prize had been given in 15 years. Li was also the youngest, and the first Chinese to win the prize. Since then, Li became famous and his list of honors goes on and on.

Today, Li still can’ t play a beautiful tune without careful preparation.

Sometimes people say that they see strange flying objects (物體) high up in the sky. People call these strange objects “Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs)”.
Dennis Bardens wrote an article. In it, he told us that he once saw a UFO himself. He had dinner one night with a friend near Tripoli, Libya. After dinner Dennis with his friend walked across a yard (院子) to his room. He noticed that the “moon” looked strange that night. But it wasn’t the moon. He saw the object’s light was moving. It seemed to be an object like a big plate. In some ways it looked like smoke with light on it. But it wasn’t smoke because it didn’t change its shape (形狀). When the object was nearer, he noticed that its bottom (底部的) part was brighter than the top. The bottom part was yellow and the top was red. Then the object suddenly turned away and left, moving very fast.
On a later day, Dennis talked to other people about it, and he found some people also saw it. They all described (描述) it in the same way.
小題1:Dennis Bardens wrote an article about a UFO.
小題2:The object looked like smoke because it often changed its shape.
