Why Is the Native Language Learnt So
Well?
How does it happen
that children learn their mother tongue so well?
When we
compare them with adults
learning a foreign language, we often find this
interesting
fact. A little child
without knowledge or experience often succeeds in
a complete
mastery of the language. A
grown-up person with fully developed mental
powers,
in most cases, may end up with
a faulty and inexact command. What accounts for
this difference?
Despite
other explanations, the real answer in my opinion
lies partly in the child
himself,
partly in the behavior of the people around him.
In the first place, the time
of
learning the mother tongue is the most favorable
of all, namely, the first years of
life. A child hears it spoken from
morning till night and, what is more important,
always in its genuine
(
纯正的
) form, with the right
pronunciation, right intonation,
and
right use of words and right structure. He drinks
in all the words and
expressions which
come to him in a fresh, ever bubbling spring.
There is no
resistance: there is
perfect assimilation (
同化
).
Then the child has, as it were,
private lessons all the year round, while an adult
language student has each week a
limited number of hours which he generally
shaves with others. The child has
another advantage: he hears the language in all
possible situations, always accompanied
by the right kind of gestures and facial
expressions. Here there is nothing
unnatural, as is often found in language lessons

The
language of Music
A painter hangs his
or her finished picture on a wall, and everyone
can see it. A
composer writes a work,
but no one can hear it until it is performed.
Professional
singers and players have
great responsibilities, for the composer is
utterly
dependent on them. A student of
music needs as long as arduous
（费劲的）
a
training
to become a performer as a medical student needs
to become a doctor.
Most training is
concerned with technique, for musicians have to
have the muscular
proficiency of an
athlete or a ballet dancer. Singers practice
breathing every day, as
their vocal
chords would be inadequate without controlled
muscular support. String
players
practice moving the fingers of the left hand up
and down, while drawing

bow to and fro with the right arm-two
entirely different movements.
Singers and instrumentalists have to be able to
get every note perfectly in tune.
Pianists are spared this particular
anxiety, for the notes are already there, waiting
for them, and it is the piano
tuner’s responsibility to tune the
instrument for them.
But they have
their own difficulties: the hammers that hit the
strings have to be
coaxed not to sound
like percussion
（撞击）
and each
overlapping tone has to
sound clear.
This problem of getting clear texture
is one that confronts student conductors: they
have to learn to know every note of the
music and how it should sound, and they
have to aim at controlling these sounds
with fanatical
（狂热的）
but
selfless
authority.
Technique is of no use unless it is combined with
musical knowledge and
understanding.
Great artists are those who are so thoroughly at
home in the
language of music that they
can enjoy performing works written in any century.
11. Which of the following best states
the main idea of the passage?
A. It is
easier to study medicine than music.
B. Painters and composers use totally
different methods to reach the public.
C. All musicians must know how to time
their own instruments.
D. Musicians
must acquire technique and understanding to
perform well.
12. According to the
passage, performers could best meet their
obligation to
composers by doing which
of the following?
A. Taking courses in
art appreciation.
B. Knowing how the
music was intended to be performed.
C.
Studying works written at different periods in
history.
D. Rearranging musical scores
for their particular instrument.
13.
Why does the author mention athletes and ballet
dancers?
A. To contrast the
requirements of each field of study.
B.
To discourage music students from continuing their
studies.
C. To motivate students to
work harder to achieve their goals.
D.
To show that music students must develop great
physical coordination.
14. According to
the passage, the advantage that pianists have over
other
instrumentalists is that they do
NOT_____________.
A. tune their own
instruments. B. practice as often.
C. use their muscles. D. aim
for clarity of sound.
15. What’s the
passage mostly likely to discuss in detail in the
following
paragraphs?
A. How
to grasp the technique of performing.
B. How to acquire the understanding of
music.
C. How to educate first-class
performers.
D. How to write successful
compositions.
