語篇理解

　　The old man rested in the sun.He thought of his violin which he loved dearly.He remembered buying it in 1931 from a stranger who needed money.He had paid him ＄ 2．50．

　　“Uncle Sanchez, a telegram(電報)for you!”a boy shouted.

　　Slowly the man opened it.First he smiled,then he laughed.

　　“What is it?”the boy asked.

　　“From the American who saw my violin at Christmas.”He remembered that the stranger had looked inside the violin as if he were looking for gold.”He says my violin was made by Stradivari.He will buy it for ＄100000.”

　　Sanchez was not the first person to learn that his violin was a treasure(財寶).He is just one of the most recent.Stories like this could be told in different parts of the world.Some of Stradivari’s violins have been carefully protected,others have been harmed by carelessness.

　　Almost nothing is known of Stradivari’s early life.But we do know he was born in a small village in Italy in 1644.As a boy of twelve,he began to learn violin making from Amati,Who was famous all over Europe for his fine violins.However, it was not until after Amati’s death in 1684 that Stradivari began making his own violins.He never made poor violins,but he made some that were much better than all the others.Luckily Stradivari’s great skill was noticed.Top prices were paid for his works from the time he began to sell them.

　　Today it is thought that Stradivari made violins that are better than any made ever since.Many of the world’s best violinists have chosen Stradivari’s violins.But few now can have a lot of money to collect them.some of the most beautiful are kept in museums.There,they can be seen by everyone or lent to famous artists for concerts.
