【四川省绵阳市2017高考英语一模试题】B Today, at 28, the young German Violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter is at the top. "She gives radiance to the music, "wrote Geoffrey Norris in The Daily Telegraph, London. Born in Rheinfelden on June 29, 1963, Anne-Sophie grew up in Wehr, a small town just five kilometers from the Swiss border. Her father, Karl Wilhelm Mutter, and her mother, Gerlinde, considered music lessons part of a good education. It came as no surprise when Anne-Sophie said she wanted a violin for her fifth birthday. Her parents thought she was too young for the violin, and persuaded her to start on the piano. But Anne-Sophie has always had a mind of her own. "I longed to play the violin, "she says, "It seemed to me a much more interesting instrument. "After six months, her parents gave in. The famous violin teacher Erna Honigberfer, who lived nearby, became Annie-Sophie's tutor. After only nine months of lessons, she entered the six-year-old in a nationwide competition for young musicians. With Christoph accompanying her on the piano, Anne-Sophie won first prize. In 1974, Erna Honigberger died. Anne-Sophie's new teacher was Aida Stucki. She taught Anne-Sophie to develop her own ideas on how a piece should be played, not just to imitate others. This is one of the violinist's strongest, most distinctive characteristics today. Though the Mutters were short of money at times, they limited their daughter's performances to one or two a year. "We are glad we went the family road, "says her father. "No outsider can ever have an effect on our daughter's career or push her into playing more concerts than she wants to. "Later she was allowed to give six to eight concerts a year and make some recordings. 60. Anne-Sophie's concerts are _________. A. limited to one or two a year B. accompanied at the piano by Christoph C. highly praised throughout the world D. appreciated by professors in London 61.
