摘要: C. 他象斯坦贝克一样写.第一段作者说他是一位公认的对当时代具有敏锐洞察力的作家.现在仍然享有盛名.主要在于“他对被压迫和被遗忘的人民的同情.有着对人物性格了解的犀利眼光.对日常方言的曲折转意的“耳朵 .他的幽默粗放而又喧闹.粗鲁而又愉快.因此.尽管他有意识的艺术效果(性).明显表现在他对复杂韵律和诗节的感受力上.人们仍然尊他为中世纪的斯坦贝克.对贫苦农民悲惨命运的疾首愤怒.给以毫不妥协地甚至野性地真实描述 .这段话说明.文内两位作家之共同点是在内容观点上.而不是指一样的艺术形式上.韦克菲尔德写的是诗歌形式--韵文.而斯坦贝克是小说和散文剧.所以说他像斯坦贝克那样写就错了.故选C. A. 他是乔叟同时代人.见最后一句“他的历史观点的现实主义稍逊于乔叟.乔叟在几年前就为其时代写了一本传奇. B. 他是作为五或六本现实之剧本的作者而为人纪念.本文第一句话“只能从他写的五个或六个剧本来说明这位作者. D. 他是一位有成就的艺术家.

I started winning competitions. We still had very little money -- my father had to borrow $5,000 to pay for a trip to the International Young Pianists Competition in Ettlingen, Germany, in 1994, when I was 12. I realized later how much pressure he was under. Tears streamed down his face when it was announced that I'd won -- earning enough money to pay back our loan.

It was soo n clear I couldn't stay in China forever. To become a world-class musician, I had to play on the world's big stages. So in 1997, my father and I moved again, this time to Philadelphia, so I could attend The Curtis Institute of Music. Finally our money worries were easing. The school paid for an apartment and even lent me a Steinway(斯坦威钢琴).At night, I would sneak into the living room just to touch the keys.

Now that I was in America, I spent two years practicing, and by 1999 I had worked hard enough for fortune to take over. The Chicago Symphony orchestra heard me play and liked me, but orchestra schedules were set far in advance. I thought I might join them in a few years.

The next morning, I got a call. The great pianist Andre Watts, who was to play the "Gala Benefit Evening" at Chicago's Ravinia Festival, had become ill. I was asked to replace him. That performance was, for me, the moment. After violinist Isaac Stern introduced me, I played Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1. My father's mouth hung open throughout the entire song.

I played until 3:30 a.m. I felt something happening. Sure enough, it was a great success. Still, my father kept telling me, "You'd better practice!" But living in America with me was beginning to relax him. In Beijing I'd been fat -- he made sure I ate -- and he'd been skinny. Now I was getting thin. He wasn't.

My father and I had often practiced a piece called "Horses," a fun version for piano and erhu. One night in Carnegie Hall, after I played Chopin and Liszt, I brought Dad out on the stage, and we played our duet(二重奏). People went crazy -- they loved it. My father couldn't sleep for days. He was too happy to sleep.

There have been lots of concerts in Carnegie Hall, but for me playing there was especially sweet when I remember the cold days in Beijing. Together, my father and I worked to reach the lucky place where fortune spots you, and lets you shine.

In the first paragraph his father cried when it was announced that he'd won mainly because__________.

A.his father was excited that his son succeeded at last.

B.his father was under too much pressure.

C.they could pay back the loan with the prize.

D.his father was proud of him.

WASHINGTON — President Obama and his wife, Michelle, handed out Halloween treats to area children and military families at the White House Sunday evening.

       Local students between 6 and 14 years old, along with children from military families, were invited to celebrate Halloween on the North Lawn.

       The president and first lady, along with Mrs.Obama's mother, Marian Robinson, spent about 30 minutes passing out goodie bags.Obama wished each child a happy Halloween as he distributed the treats, pausing occasionally for hugs or to comment on costumes.

       Later, the military families continued the celebration inside the White House.

       The first couple joked to assembled reporters about children walking the long driveway in order to work off (消化掉) the snacks."This is the Let's Move method of trick-or-treating (不给糖就捣蛋)," Obama said, referring to Mrs.Obama's campaign to combat childhood obesity (肥胖).

       The goodie bags contained a box of White House M&Ms, a cookie made by pastry chef (点心师) Bill Yosses, and dried fruit.

       As they made their way across the lawn, the children meet a vast range of costumed characters ranging from a spooky Frankenstein (科学怪人,小说《弗兰肯斯坦》的主角) to the Scarecrow from "The Wizard of Oz." Music from a jazz band dressed in pirate gear rang out across the White House grounds.

       Multicolored pumpkins and gourds lined the driveway — individually, in gravity-defying stacks and as part of a large mound over 5 feet tall.Pumpkin-headed scarecrows (稻草人) made of cornstalks loomed over the path with menacingly raised arms.Under the White House portico, a mobile resembling bats flying through clouds fluttered around a lantern.

       Some of the local trick-or-treaters were students at Bancroft Elementary, which helps tend the first lady's White House garden, and Tubman Elementary, which has a relationship with the White House chefs.

       After trick-or-treating ended, the Obamas stood near the front door, welcoming the military families inside, helping children climb the short flight of steps and thanking parents for their service.

What is the news report mainly about?

       A.President Obama and first lady celebrated Halloween with children.

       B.President Obama and his wife Michelle handed out Halloween treats to children.

       C.Children from military families were invited to celebrate Halloween at the White House.
