    When I was an elementary school student aging ten, I took part in a singing competition in our city. It was my first time to be in a singing competition. In the day of the competition, I was asked to enter into a studio room, which there was only one person and a piano. The man asked me to sing in front of the microphone, following her piano playing. My mother was waiting for me outside the studio. I thought that I sang better at the time. So when I finished and walked out the studio, my mother asked, “What happened to your voices? Why couldn’t we hear you?” Then, I realized that I forget to switch on the microphone.

         Japanese Students Suffer from Pressure  
          Last April,15-year-old Rei Iwasaki stopped her piano and flute lessons  
    and began to study every day of the week. Her parents paid to send her to a  
    "cram school(灌输式教学模式的学校)."She wanted very much to pass her  
    exams.  
           In February she did pass an all-day, five-subject examination and  
    entered the high school she hoped to enter.  
           Thirteen-year-old Akio Yoshiwara wasn't so lucky. Unable to take the  
    pressure of the exams, he hanged himself in February. He left a suicide note  
    which said, "I did my best in this dear life, but it's no good."  
           Suicides are now a common part of life among students in Japan. The  
    cause is the incredible pressure of the "examination hell."  
           Even a number of teachers are committing suicide each year. When  
    some students broke windows in a school near Tokyo, the principal blamed  
    himself and wrote the following note: "The incidents were due to the lack  
    of appropriate measures by the principal and I apologize. I am very tired.
          The Japanese educational system is much different from the American  
    system. It is perhaps the most regimented(严密组织的) school system in  
    any of the industrialized nations.  
          Boys and girls wear uniforms and go to school six days a week --- 240  
    days a year compared to 180 in the U.S. Ninety- five percent graduate from  
    high school compared to seventy-five percent in the U.S.  
          Students don't ask questions in class but only listen respectfully to the  
    teachers. And every few years students are tested to see which school they  
    will enter next. There is stiff competition for the "best" schools.  
          The result is a well-informed, disciplined student, ideal for factory  
    and company work and excellent at learning specialized skills. But there is  
    little  fun  in  education,  little  creativity  and  the  incredible pressure  of  
    "examination hell."  

    1. It's because ______ that many Japanese students committed suicide.  
       A. they didn't do their best in their lives.  
       B. they were sent to a "cram school".  
       C. of the most regimented school.  
       D. they were unable to take the pressure of the exams.  

    2. Why did the principal kill himself? Because__________  
       A. He thought it was his fault that some students broke the windows.  
       B. He was very tired.  
       C. He couldn't stand the pressure of the "examination hell".  
       D. He blamed himself and wrote a note.  

    3. Which of the following ideas agrees with the title of the passage.  
       A. The Japanese students love to study under pressure.  
       B. The Japanese students do well under pressure.  
       C. The exams give the Japanese students much pressure.  
       D. The exams make the Japanese students commit suicide each year.  

    4. Which of the following is Wrong?  
       A. The American educational system is much different from the Japanese  system.  
       B. To enter a high school, a student must pass an all-day, five-subject  examination.  
       C. The Japanese graduates from high school are much less than the  American graduates.  
       D. In Japanese education, there is little creativity as well as little fun.

    Our bedroom has no full-length mirror. There is one at the canteen entrance. I always cherish a secret desire to take a peep before it at myself in a beautiful new dress. However, each time when it comes to the fulfillment, I get seized with such an uneasiness that I literally stagger away—backing out at the critical moment.

       At the root of it is my lack of confidence by which I have been enslaved since childhood. It embarrasses me at the mildest flattery(表扬), crushes my utmost efforts to say “No”, and prevents me from asking my parents for one cent more than necessary. Among other things, lack of confidence has wormed its way into my love of piano.

    At the age of 14, one Sunday morning, I was woken up by a resounding hymn(洪亮的圣歌). Tracing that call of God into a neighboring church, I found myself deeply attracted by the melody of a piano—something beyond the means of my parents. To make it worse, people say a pianist is supposed to have music in the blood, but I believe I had none from my engineer father and technician mother. For days on end, I kept thinking of nothing else. I had a dream.

       It wasn’t a dream after gold, which made some of my close friends to engage in business as self-employed traders or street peddlers. I was sometimes dazzled(眼花缭乱的) by their gold rings or elegant necklaces behind which, however, I seemed to catch sight of skeletons in their cupboards and was frightened away from the craze for fortunate. Out of despair, I retreated into seclusion(独处), lack of confidence weighing heavy on me. I could do nothing but turn to my dream for comfort, for courage to aim high and wish for the impossible. I was convinced that before I could afford anything expensive (to me, it was a piano), I should climb up the academic ladder as high as possible.

       For the next nine years, I carefully held back my aspiration for music to keep my quest for learning, especially in English studies. My efforts were so rewarding that I went successfully through high school and college in my hometown. When I received the admission notice for a second degree course at a prestigious university in Beijing, the national capital, tears welled up in my eyes. I knew my command of English was my wealth, for I might make a deal with a pianist who would give me access to his piano in exchange for English lessons. And that has come true!

    To this day, whenever I lay my fingers on the snow-white keyboard, ready for a melody, I still feel shy. I am quite aware of my limited music talent, but as a shy dreamer, I have found my way to success.
