Steveland Morris is a household name in
America. Ask Steveland Morris and he'll tell you that blindness is not
necessarily disabling. Steveland was born prematurely(过早地,不到期地) and totally
without sight in 1950s. He became Stevie Wonder—composer, singer, and pianist.
The winner of ten Grammy awards, Stevie is widely acclaimed(喝采) for his
outstanding contributions to the music world. As a child, Stevie
learned not to think about the things he could not do, but to concentrate on the
things that he could do. His parents encouraged him to join his sighted brothers
in as many activities as possible. They also helped him to sharpen his sense of
hearing, the sense upon which the usually disabled are so dependent.
Because sound was so important to him, Stevie began at an early age to
experiment with different kinds of sound. He would bang things together and then
imitate the sound with his voice. Often relying on sound for entertainment, he
sang, beat on toy drums, played a toy harmonica(口琴), and listened to the
radio. Stevie soon graduated from toy instruments to real
instruments. He first learned to play the drams. He then mastered the harmonica
and the piano. He became a member of the junior church choir(唱诗班) and a lead
singer. In the evening and on weekends, Stevie would play different instruments
and sing popular rhythm and blues tunes on the front porches (走廊)of neighbors'
homes. One of Stevie's sessions was overheard by Ronnie White, a
member of a popular singing group called The Miracles. Ronnie immediately
recognized Stevie's talent and took him to audition(试听) for Berry Gordy, the
president of Hitsville USA, a large recording company now known as Motown.
Stevie recorded his first smash hit "Fingertips" in 1962 at age twelve, and the
rest of Stevie's story is music history.

单选题Greek mythology is largely made up of stories about gods and goddesses, but it must not be read as a kind of Greek Bible, an account of the Greek religion. According to the most modern idea, a real myth has nothing to do with religion. It is an explanation of something in nature; how, for instance, any and everything in the universe came into existence: men, animals, this or that tree or flower, the sun, the moon, the stars, storms, eruptions, earthquakes, all that is and all that happens. Thunder and lightning ale caused when Zeus hurls his thunderbolt. A volcano erupts because a terrible creature is imprisoned in the mountain and every now and then struggles to get free. The Dipper (大熊星座), the constellation (星座) called also the Great Bear, does not set below the horizon because a goddess once was angry at it and decreed (命令) that it should never sink into the sea. Myths ale early science, the result of men's first trying to explain what they saw around them. But there are many so-called myths which explain nothing at all. These tales are pure entertainment, the sort of thing people would tell each other on a long winter's evening. The story of Pygmalion (皮格马利翁) and Galatea is all example; it has no conceivable connection with any event in nature. Neither has the Quest of the Golden Fleece (录找金羊毛), nor Orpheus (奥菲士,竖琴圣手) and Eurydice, nor many another. This fact is now generally accepted; and we do not have to try to find in every mythological heroine the moon or the dawn and in every hero's life a sun myth. The stories are early literature as well as early science. But religion is there, too. In the background, to be sure, but nevertheless plain to see. From Homer through the tragedians and even later, there is a deepening realization of what human beings need and what they must have in their gods.
