Chapter5 Lang Lang:Piano Prodigy:
朗朗是当今最著名和年轻的钢琴家之一.纽约时代杂志上写道：他令人震惊.不过,朗朗的生活远比杂志简单评语有趣的多.
朗朗1982年生于沈阳.他第一次听到西方古典音乐是在看汤姆和杰瑞的动画片时.那时他才两岁.朗朗三岁时开始学钢琴.两年后,他就赢得了沈阳钢琴比赛的第一名.从那以后,他得到很多奖.
然而,朗朗的成功付出了巨大努力.他的父亲对他要求十分严格.他的同龄伙伴在玩耍或是去北京旅游时他一直在练琴.然后,朗朗进入了国内最好的音乐学院.
在17岁时,朗朗的机遇来了.1999年8月,在美国一个著名音乐会上,一个钢琴家突然生病了.朗朗被选中来代替那个钢琴家.演出十分成功,朗朗的命运从此转折.
到今天,朗朗每年演出150场.他曾经和最伟大的管弦乐队同台演出,还在很多重要场合出演,比如2008北京奥运会.
朗朗说他很感激父母,因为他们总是鼓励并支持他.

Tom 的姨妈给他说他必须去给家里的围墙刷漆.那栏杆有三十码长,三码高!Tom 漆了一角后,就坐在树下休息.
Soon the boy who were free would come along and make fun of him.Just then,he had a wonderful idea.He picked up his brush and went back to work.
很快,那些没事干的男孩们就过来嘲笑他.然后,他有了个很棒的主意.他拿起他的刷子,继续工作.
Ben Roers came along the road.He sang happily,with an apple in one hand.
Ben Roers 从路边走过.他快乐地唱着歌,一手拿着个苹果.
' I'm going swimming,' said Ben.' Do you want to come?Oh,but you have to work,don't you?'
“我要去游泳.”Ben 说.“你想来吗?哦,但是你还要工作,不是吗?”
'Work?' he said.'I don't think that this is work.It's fun.Does a boy get a chance like this every day?'
“工作?”他说.“我可不认为这是工作.这是我的乐趣.不是每个男孩每天都有这机会的.”
Ben thought about this.Tom went on painting.Ben was watching Tom's every move.He was getting more and more interested.
Ben 想了一下.Tom 继续刷漆.Ben 看着Tom 的一举一动.他开始更加地感兴趣了.
After awhile,he said,' Tom,will you let me do some painting?'
过了一会儿,他说,“Tom,你能让我也来刷漆吗?”
Tom said,' No,Ben,I can't.Youy see,Aunt Polly wants it to be done properly.I'm the only one that can do it right.'
Tom 说,“不,Ben,不能.你看,Polly 姨妈希望这工作被好好儿地完成.而我是唯一可以把它做好的人.”
' Oh,please,Tom,begged Ben.' I'll be really careful.I'll give you half of my apple.I'll give you all of it !'
“噢,求求你了,Tom,”Ben 央求道.“我会很小心的.我可以给你半个苹果.我可以全都给你.”
' Well,all right,Ben,' said Tom.' But you must be careful.'
“嗯,好吧,Ben.”Tom 说.“但是你一定得小心.”
He gave Ben his brush with worry on his face but joy in his heart.He sat down again under the tree,and started to eat Ben's apple.
他把他的刷子给了Ben,一副担心的样子,但其实他心里很高兴.他又坐在树下,开始吃Ben 的苹果.
All day,boys passed by and wanted to paint.When Ben got tired,Billy Fisher began to paint.He gave Tom a kite which he liked.Then Johnny Miller gave him twelve marbles,and so on.
整整一天,男孩们都走来给围墙刷漆.当Ben 累了的时候,Billy Fisher又来了.他给了Tom 一个他喜欢的风筝.然后Johhnny Miller 又给了他十二个玻璃弹子,等等.
That afteroon,Tom got many toys,and the fence gained three coats of paint.Aunt Polly was so pleased when she saw the painted fence that she gave him a large cake!
