strange write sad deep music

Last night one of my Chinese friends took me to a concert of Chinese folk music. The piece which was played on the erhu especially moved me. The music

was 【1】 beautiful, but under the beauty I sensed a strong 【2】 and pain. The piece had a simple name, Erquan Yingyue (Moon Reflected on Second Spring), but it was one of the most 【3】 pieces of music that I’ve ever heard. The erhu sounded so sad that I almost cried along with it as I listened. Later I looked up the history of Erquan Yingyue, and I began to understand the sadness in the music.

The music was 【4】 by Abing. A folk musician who was born in the city of Wuxi in 1893. His mother died when he was very young. Abing’s father taught him to play many 【5】 instruments, such as the drums, dizi and erhu, and by age 17, Abing was known for his musical ability. However, after his father died, Abing’s life grew 【6】. He was very poor. Not only that, he developed a serious illness and became blind. For several years, he had no home. He lived on the streets and played music to make money. Even after Abing got 【7】 and had a home again, he continued to sing and play on the streets. He performed in this way for many years. Abing’s 【8】 musical skills made him very popular during his lifetime. By the end of his life, he could play over 600 pieces of music. Many of these were written by Abing himself. It is a pity that only six pieces of music in total were recorded for the future world to hear, but his popularity continues to this day. Today, Abing’s Erquan Yomgyue is a piece which all the great erhu masters play and praise. It has become one of China’s【9】 treasures. Its sad beauty not only paints a picture of Abing’s own life but also makes people recall their 【10】 wounds from their own sad or painful experiences.

【题目】 Are you shy? If you are. you are not alone. In fact, close lo 50 percent of people are shy Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days. shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.

Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.

Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied said children. They found that 66 percent of them had elder brothers and sisters. The scientists said that these children were often bullied by their elder brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.

You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel (以色列),only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure. In Japan, when people do not succeed they feel bad about themselves. They blame (责备)themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.

For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversations. And don't forget if you are shy. You are not the only one.
