A pianist and an old woman
钢琴家和老妇人
Mike was a very famous pianist. When he was a small

boy, he once played at a party in a rich man's house. He
was only eight years old, but he had played the piano for a
few years. At the party he played a famous piece by
Beethoven. He played well.
The famous piece has several long rests in it. In each
of these rests he took his hands away from the piano and waited. To him this was
very exciting, but the mother of the rich man didn't think so. Finally, during one of
these rests she came over to him. She touched him on the head, smiled and said,
"My boy, why don't you play for us what you know well?"

这是一篇记叙文阅读题,解题思路如下:
1. 对于选择题,先仔细阅读题干,锁定题干关键信息,再回到原文定位对应语句,依据原文内容选择正确答案。比如第1题找Mike在聚会演奏时的年龄,定位到原文“He was only eight years old”就能得出答案;第2题判断Mike是否熟悉演奏的曲子,从“He played well.”以及他已学钢琴多年的描述,可推断出他熟悉这首曲子。
2. 对于回答问题类题型,先明确问题核心,再在原文中寻找对应语句,提取关键信息组织语言作答。比如询问Mike的职业,直接从开头“Mike was a very famous pianist.”提取信息即可。
