One day about 30 years ago, a 2 year-old Chinese boy in Shenyang was watching a Tom and Jerry cartoon on TV. Tom the cat began to play the piano. The music was to beautiful that the boy fell in love with it at once. This little boy was Lang Lang – one of today’s great pianists.
Lang Lang began to play the piano at 3. By the age of 5, the had won fist place in Shenyang’s piano competition and performed his first public recital(独奏会). People were shocked by his perfect performance and thought he was a real talent. From that time on, playing on the global stage became the dream of Lang and his parents.
To help him much closer to his dream, when Lang was 9, his father quit his job and went with Lang to Beijing to help his son study piano. There, Lang did not receive the praise that he had received at home, and he experienced the hardest time of his life.
“I was kicked out of the class by my piano teacher six months later. It totally destroyed my piano dream,” Lang said in an interview on a Chinese TV program. Hearing about his son’s failure, Lang’s father was so furious(暴怒的) and frustrated(沮丧的) that he told Lang either to go back to Shenyang, or to commit suicide( 自杀). Feeling hopeless and in pain, Lang tried to damage his fingers by crushing(砸) them against a wall. He hated piano!
Luckily, another teacher noticed Lang’s sadness and encouraged him. Success came soon. Lang’s breakthrough came at age 17, when he gained worldwide fame at a well-known concert in 1999 in Chicago, US.

One of the most famous nursery rhymes(摇篮曲) in the English language is Mary Had a Little Lamb(羔羊). It has touched many children who have read it. It is about the deep love between a young girl and her pet lamb. The poem is from a true story that happened in the early part of the 19th century in the town of Sterling, Massachusetts, in the USA.
Mary Sawyer (1806－1889) lived on a farm with her family. One day, when she was about nine years old, she saw a little lamb that had just been born and left behind by its mother. It was very weak an
d looked as if it would die at very moment. Mary took pity on the lamb and spent the whole night looking after it. Eventually, it grew strong and became a very close friend with Mary, following her everywhere she went.
One day, the lamb even followed Mary to school. At first she wanted to turn it back but her brother suggested that it would be fun to take the lamb to school. During the class, she hid the lamb under her desk. But when she was called to go to the front of the class, to her surprise, the lamb followed her. Though the students and the teacher thought it was funny to see a lamb at school, the teacher had to ask Mary to keep the lamb outside of the school.
That very day, a young man called John Roulstone was visiting Mary’s school. He was so moved by the love between the child and her little pet lamb that he wrote a poem which he handed to Mary the next day. His poem contained twelve lines.
Later, Sara Josepha Hale added another twelve lines to the poem and published it in 1930 under the title “Mary Had a Little Lamb”. The poem has become a classic, loved by children all over the world. The appeal (吸引力) of the poem lies not only in the funny idea of a sheep going to school but also in the true love between the little 
girl and her pet. The town of Sterling has honoured Mary’s lamb by building a statue (雕像) of the lamb with Mr Roulstone’s poem below the statue.
