Everybody knows Amadeus Mozart, the world’s most famous child piano prodigy (天才) . He was a composer, pianist, and performer (表演家)－a musician. He was born in Austria, but his real name is not popular. People know him as Amadeus, but not many people know he was born John Chrysostom Wolfgang Theophilus Mozart, and his father called him Woferl.

As a child, Mozart was very popular. That was because he was doing things unusual for little children. While everyone else was having fun playing, Mozart was already composing, performing and touring for concerts. His father was always behind him.

Here are some stories about his gift. When he heard an “oink” of a pig and recognized (辨认) it as a G-sharp. And he was only two years old at the time!

He also took part in piano lessons at the age of three and he could already learn a minuet in thirty minutes when he was four years old! Who wouldn’t be amazed?

At the age of six, while performing, he found people getting bored, so he thought of performing a trick (花招) , But nobody knew he had the keyboard covered (遮盖) with a cloth and still played the music perfectly. He was still a child having fun at that time.

It was told that he lived a hard and poor life. He didn’t even have a stable (稳定的) job when he got married and he died really poor. Once a friend visited him one winter day, and found Mozart and his wife waltzing round the room. “We were cold,” they said, “and we have no money to make a fire.” They were cold, but they still chose a different way to make them warm.

All in all, Mozart didn’t only leave great music but a great lesson too: that no matter how difficult life is, there is always room for smiles, love and fun.

1.His father called him 　　　　　　 .

A.Mozart B.Amadeus C.Woferl D.John

2.The words “a minuet” in Paragraph 4 mean “ 　　　　　　 ”.

A.a piece of music B.a funny trick

C.an English song D.a maths lesson

3.What can we learn about Mozart from this passage?

A.Mozart had a poor life when he was married.

B.Mozart got a stable job when he grew up.

C.Mozart was very good at teaching music.

D.Mozart’s real name is very popular.
