But when he talks about his early piano training，Kong speaks of"bitterness"and"hardship．"He says"A pianist has no childhood at all．I didn't understand the games other children played．"

When he was 7，Kong's mother borrowed enough money to buy a second-hand piano for him．She almost spent all her savings on the instrument，so it was a real fortune．It was not a good quality piano and the keys were yellow and old，"like an old woman's teeth．"Kong used this"old granny"piano for 10years．It stimulated his real passion for learning music because he was fascinated（著迷的） by the beautiful sound of a real piano after years at the paper keyboard．He has kept the old piano to remind him of those days．
Practice is the only path to success．Knowing that，Kong was a hard-working student at school，where he wore out several keyboards on musical exercises．
58．Why did Kong Xiangdong shaved off his hair？B

[6]"All right，"said Socrates．"So you don？t know if it's true or not． Now let's try the second filter，the filter of Goodness． Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good？"
[7]"No，on the contrary…"
[8]‘‘So，"Socrates continued，"you want to tell me something bad about him，but you're not certain it's true．You may still pass the test though，because there's one filter left，the filter of Usefulness．Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me？"
[9]"No，not really．"
[10]"Well，"concluded Socrates，"if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful，why tell it to me at all？"
    LESSON：
[11]You can always participate in loose talks when you feel bored． But when it comes to your friends it's not worth it． Always avoid talking behind the back about your near and dear friends．

17．On May 23，1989，Stefania Follini came out from a cave at Carlsbad，New Mexico．She hadn't seen the sun for eighteen and a half weeks．Stefania was in a research program，and the scientists in the program were studying body rhythms．In this experiment Stefania had spent 130days in a cave，30feet in depth．
During her time in the cave，Stefania had been completely alone except for two white mice．Her living place had been very comfortable，but there had been nothing to tell her the time．She'd had no clocks or watches，no television or radio．There had been no natural light and the temperature had always been kept at 21℃．
The results were very interesting．Stefania had been in the cave for over four months，but she thought she had been there for only two．Her body clock had changed．She hadn't kept to a 24-hour day．She had stayed awake for 20-25hours and then had slept for 10hours．She had eaten fewer meals and had lost 171bs in weight as a result!She had also become rather depressed．
How had she spent her time in the cave？As part of the experiment she'd done some physical and mental tests．She'd recorded her daily activities and the results of the tests on a computer．This computer had been specially programmed for the project．Whenever she was free，she'd played cards，read books and listened to music．She'd also learned French from tapes．
The experiment showed that our body clocks are affected by light and temperature．For example，the pattern of day and night makes us wake up and go to sleep．However，people are affected in different ways．Some people wake up naturally at 5：00am，but others don't start to wake up till 9：00or 10：00am．This affects the whole daily rhythm．As a result，the early risers are at their best in the late morning．The late risers，on the other hand，are tired during the day and only come to life in the afternoon or evening!

59．Stefania stayed in the cave for a long time becauseB．
A．she needed to record her life
B．she was part of a research program．
C．she wanted to experience loneliness
D．she was asked to do research on mice
60．What is the cause for the change of Stefania's body clock？C
A．Eating fewer meals．
B．Having more hours of sleep．
C．Getting no natural light．
D．Lacking physical exercise．
61．The text is most probably taken fromA．
A．A news story．
B．A novel．
C．A pet magazine．
D．A travel guide．
