correct answer to each of the questions from 47 to 57.
Among all the abilities with which an individual may be endowed, musical talent appears earliest in
life. Very young children can exhibit musical precocity for different reasons. Some develop exceptional

skills as a result of a well-designed instructional regime, such as the Suzuki method for the violin. Some
have a good fortune to be born into a musical family in a household filled with music. In a number of
interesting cases, musical talent is part of an otherwise disabling condition such as autism or mental
retardation. A musically gifted child has an inborn talent; however, the extent to which the talent is
expressed publicly will depend upon the environment in which the child lives.
Musically gifted children master at an early age the principal elements of music, 11 including pitch and
rhythm. Pitch – or – melody – is more central cultures, for example, in Eastern societies that make use of
tiny quarter – tone interval… Rhythm, sounds produced at certain auditory frequencies and grouped
according to a prescribed system, is emphasized in sub – Saharan African, where the rhythmic ratios can
be very complex.
All children have some aptitude for making music. During infancy, normal children sing as well as
babble, and they can produce individual sounds and sounds patterns. Infants as young as two months can
match their mother‟s songs in pitch, loudness, and melodic shape, and infants at four months can match
rhythmic structure as well. Infants are especially predisposed to acquire these core aspects of music, and
they can also engage in sound play that clearly exhibits creativity.
Individual differences begin to merge in young children as they learn to sing. Some children can match
large segments of a song by the age of two or three. Many others can only approximate pitch at this age
and may still have difficulty in producing accurate melodies by the age of five or six. However, by the
time they reach school age, most children in any culture have a schema of what a song should be like and
can produce a reasonably accurate imitation of the songs commonly heard in their environment.

thi s 01

The early appearance of superior musical ability in some children providences that musical talent may
be a separate and unique form of intelligence. There are numerous tales of young artists who have a
remarkable “ear” or extraordinary memory for music and a natural understanding of musical structure. In
many of these cases, the child is average in every other way but displays an exceptional ability in music.
Even the most gifted child, however, takes about ten years to achieve the levels of performance or
composition that would constitute mastery of the musical sphere.
Every generation in music history has its famous prodigies – individuals with exceptional musical
powers that emerge at a young age. In the eighteenth century, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart began
composing and performing at the age of six. As a child, Mozart could play the piano like an adult. He had
perfect pitch, and at the age of nine, he was also a master of the art of modulation – transitions from one
key to another – which became one of the hallmarks of his style. By the age of eleven, he had composed
three symphonies and 30 other major works. Mozart‟s well – developed talent was preserved into
adulthood.
Unusual musical ability is a regular characteristic of certain anomalies such as autism. In one case, an
autistic girl was able to play “Happy birthday” in the style of various composers, including Mozart,
Beethoven, Verdi, and Schubert. When the girl was three, her mother called her by playing incomplete
melodies, which the child would complete with the appropriate tone in the proper octave. For the autistic
child, music maybe the primary mode of communication, and the child may cling to music because it
represents as a haven in a world that is largely confusing and frightening.
47. The word “precocity” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to______ .
A. strong interest
B. good luck
C. advanced skill
D. personal style
48. Which sentence below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in
paragraph 1?
A. Children may be born with superior musical ability, but their environment will determine how this

ability is developed.
B. Every child is naturally gifted, and it is the responsibility of the public schools to recognize and
develop these talents.
C. Children with exceptional musical talent will look for the best way to express themselves through
music – making.
D. Some musically talented children live in an environment surrounded by music, while others have little
exposure to music.
49. The author makes the point that musical elements such as pitch and rhythm______.
A. distinguish music from other art forms
B. vary in emphasis in different cultures
C. make music difficult to learn
D. express different human emotions
50. The word “predisposed” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to______.
A. inclined
B. gifted
C. pushed
D. amused
51. According to the passage, when does musical talent usually begin to appear?
A. When infants start to babble and produce sound patterns.
B. Between the ages of two and four months.
C. When children learn to sing at two or three years old.
D. Between ten years old and adolescence.
52. According to the passage, which of the following suggests that musical talent in the separate form of
intelligence?
A. Exceptional musical ability in an otherwise average child.
