On Nov.18, 1995, Itzhak Perlman, the violinist, came on stage to give a concert in the Avery Fisher Hall at the Lincoln Center in New York City.
If you have ever been to a Perlman concert, you know that getting on stage is no small achievement for him. He was stricken with polio (小儿麻痹症) as a child, and so he has braces (支架) on both legs and walks with the aid of a pair of crutches (拐杖).
He walks painfully until he reaches his chair. Then he sits down slowly, puts his crutches on the floor, undoes the clasps (扣压环) on his legs, pushes one foot back and extends the other foot forward. Then he bends down and picks up the violin, puts it under his chin, nods to the conductor and begins his play.
But this time, something went wrong. Just as he finished the first few notes, one of the strings on his violin broke — it went off like gunfire across the room. We figured that he would have to get up, put on the clasps again, pick up the crutches and limp his way off stage — to either find another violin or else find another string for this one. But he didn't. Instead, he waited a moment, closed his eyes and then signaled the conductor to begin again.
The orchestra began, and he played from where he had left off. When he finished, there was an extremely impressive silence in the room. And then people rose and cheered. He smiled, wiped the sweat from his brow, raised his bow to quiet us, and then he said in a quiet tone, "You know, sometimes it is the artist's task to find out how much music you can still make with what you have left."
1. What does the author mean when he writes the underlined part in Paragraph 2?
A. It's very difficult for Perlman to get to the stage.
B. It's' hard for Perlman to play a violin with three strings.
C. It's not easy for Perlman to face such a large audience.
D. Pefiman plays the violin with three strings successfully.
2. The third paragraph describes .
A. how Perlman deals with his disability
B. Pefiman's attitude towards the concert
C. the various stages of Perlman' s performance
D. the difficulties Pefiman had before playing
3. What does the underlined word "one" in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. String. B. Crutch.
C. Violin. D. Orchestra.
4. Itzhak Pefiman can be best described as a man who is .

On Nov. 18, 1995, Itzhak Perlman, the violinist, came on stage to give a concert at Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center in New York City.
If you have ever been to a Perlman concert, you know that getting on stage is no small achievement for him. He was stricken with polio(小儿麻痹症) as a child, and so he has braces(支架) on both legs and walks with the aid of two crutches(双拐).
He walks painfully, yet majestically, until he reaches his chair. Then he sits down, slowly, puts his crutches on the floor, undoes the clasps on his legs, tucks one foot back and extends the other foot forward. Then he bends down and picks up the violin, puts it under his chin, nods to the conductor and proceeds to play.
But this time, something went wrong. Just as he finished the first few bars(小节), one of the strings on his violin broke. You could hear it snap(嘣断)——it went off like gunfire across the room. There was no mistaking what that meant. There was no mistaking what he had to do.
We figured that he would have to get up, put on the clasps again, pick up the crutches and limp his way off stage——to either find another violin or else find another string for this one. But he didn’t. Instead, he waited a moment, closed his eyes and then signaled the conductor to begin again.
The orchestra began, and he played from where he had left off. And he played with such passion and such power and such purity as they had never heard before.
When he finished, there was an awesome silence in the room. And then people rose and cheered. He smiled, wiped the sweat from this brow, raised his bow to quiet us, and then he said in a quiet tone, “You know, sometimes it is the artist’s task to find out how much music you can still make with what you have left.”
51. By saying “getting on stage is no small achievement for him”, the author really means ______.
A.it’s very difficult for Itzhak Perlman to play the violin with three strings
B.it’s not easy for Itzhak Perlman to get on the stage because he is disabled
C.it’s not easy for Itzhak Perlman to face such a large audience
D.it’s really great achievements for Itzhak Perlman to play the violin with three strings
52. When one of the strings broke, people thought Itzhak Perlman would __________.
A.go on playing with the remaining three strings B.give up playing
C.change or repair his violin D.get off the stage with shame
53. Itzhak Perlman ___________ when one of the strings of the violin broke.
A.gave up playing
B.didn’t know what to do
