考点规范练2(必修1　ThemeB) 　考点规范练第4页　? Ⅰ.阅读理解 1. A About 17 years ago,I started an adult music class at Austin Community College.I already had a private studio of young talented kids,and one adult student who had played some brass instrument in junior high band,but wanted to learn the violin.Leslie was her name and she was my first adult student. She came to lessons knowing how to read music,but that was all about it.After our first couple of lessons,I thought for sure she wouldn’t last.I saw the long,hard battle in front of her,and many times,I must admit,I thought of suggesting that she choose another instrument,something easier,like piano or guitar.Although she was very anxious,she never let it stop her.As I watched Leslie slowly develop into a good violinist,my own ideas and feelings changed about teaching adult students. Because I started as a child I had never experienced what my adult student had: the burning desire to learn the violin, the will to continue.I had never owned those things.For me learning to play was the by-product(副产品)of a childhood activity chosen for me by my mother. After a few years of lessons,Leslie’s skills were growing and I thought it would be nice for her to play with other people,so I opened an adult music class at Austin Community College.Again,the outcome of that experience I couldn’t have imagined either.Besides being a ton of fun for me,Leslie met three other women in the class who decided after the term was over to get together once a week to play string quartets(弦乐四重奏).I recently ran into Lola(the oldest member of the group who is now in her 70’s)and she said the group still meets regularly. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文,Leslie是作者教的学习小提琴的第一个成年学生,一开始作者对她充满担心,但她的坚持和决心最终使她成了一名优秀的小提琴手,这改变了作者认为成年人不适合学小提琴的观念。 Before Leslie came to the writer’s music class,she 　　　.?
