Piano Practice
I glare at the piano keys, a lump of fetid anger in my chest, bile in my lungs. Naturally mother had won.
Had it been worth the fight? Now I am incarcerated in this airless room, curtains shutting out the
summer sunshine, and I’m supposed to blot out the birdsong with my discordant and clumsy attempts at
harmony.
Music is the food of love, they say. Music will set you free, they sang. Remember those romantic novels
where the entrapped heroine finds her freedom and salvation through music ?How her soaring voice
allowed her to escape the claustrophobic confines of her disagreeable existence? Where was that
freedom now? All I can see is this grid of horizontal and vertical lines mocking me like the bars on a
prison cell. And a prison warden who barks at me from beyond the grave: Be quiet, now. You may play
loudly now. See the discreet ‘3’ above the semiquaver A flat, demanding that I play the note with the
third finger, the third! How dare that bearded, long-dead German enforce upon me how I play this
note? I will not use my finger, you fusty old man! I will play it with my thumb! No, I will bash it with my
fist. I can head butt it with impassioned fury if so I choose!
The crow in the kitchen screeches over the sound of the clattering dishes. Why aren’t you playing? And
so I clench my muscles, take a deep breath and hammer out that lullaby, as if inviting all the hordes of
hell to descend upon the baby’s cradle.
1:In the second paragraph, why does the character mention the ‘romantic novels where the entrapped
heroine finds her freedom and salvation through music’?
c: Because she wishes that music will give her a similar sense of freedom
2: Why does the character in the text ‘hammer out that lullaby’ (last paragraph )?
Marie Curie was one of the most accomplished scientists in history. Together with her husband, Pierre,
she discovered radium, an element widely used for treating cancer, and studied uranium and other
radioactive substances. Pierre and Marie's amicable collaboration later helped to unlock the secrets of
the atom.
Marie was born in 1867 in Warsaw, Poland, where her father was a professor of physics. At an early age,
she displayed a brilliant mind and a blithe personality. Her great exuberance for learning prompted her
to continue with her studies after high school. She became disgruntled, however, when she learned that
the university in Warsaw was closed to women. Determined to receive a higher education, she defiantly
left Poland and in 1891 entered the Sorbonne, a French university, where she earned her master's
degree and doctorate in physics.
Marie was fortunate to have studied at the Sorbonne with some of the greatest scientists of her day,
one of whom was Pierre Curie. Marie and Pierre were married in 1895 and spent many productive years
working together in the physics laboratory. A short time after they discovered radium, Pierre was killed
by a horse-drawn wagon in 1906. Marie was stunned by this horrible misfortune and endured
heartbreaking anguish. Despondently she recalled their close relationship and the joy that they had
shared in scientific research. The fact that she had two young daughters to raise by herself greatly
increased her distress.
Curie's feeling of desolation finally began to fade when she was asked to succeed her husband as a
physics professor at the Sorbonne. She was the first woman to be given a professorship at the world
famous university. In 1911 she received the Nobel Prize in chemistry for isolating radium. Although
Marie Curie eventually suffered a fatal illness from her long exposure to radium, she never became
disillusioned about her work. Regardless of the consequences, she had dedicated herself to science and
to revealing the mysteries of the physical world.
