I hadtelegrammed London

12、from Amsterdam, and there was a hired car to meet, but there was onemore unfortunate happening before I reached my flat. In all my travels I have never, but for thatonce, been required by the British customs to open a single bag or to do more than state that Icarried no goods liable to duty. It was,

13、 of course, my fault; the extreme tiredness and nervoustension of the journey had destroyed my diplomacy (处世之道). I was, for whichever reason,so tired that I could hardly stand, and to the question, “Have you read this?” I replied withextreme foolishness, “Yes, hundreds of times.”“And you have nothin

14、g to declare?”“Nothing.”“How long have you been out of this country?”“About three months.”“And during that time you have acquired nothing?”“Nothing but what is on the list I have given you.”He seemed immediately at a loss, but then he attacked.

19、ed because of carrying many contraband goodsD. might have failed in catching the hired carBViolin prodigies (神童), I learned, have come in different waves from different regions.Most of the great performers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were born and brought upin Russia and Eastern Europe

20、. I asked Isaac Stern, one of the worlds greatest violinists thereason for this phenomenon. “It is very clear.” he told me. “They were all Jews and Jews at thetime were severely oppressed (受压迫的) and ill-treated in that part of the world. They werenot allowed into the professional fields, but they we

21、re allowed to achieve excellence on aconcert stage.” As a result, every Jewish parents dream was to have a child in the music schoolbecause it was a passport to the West.Another element in the emergence (出现) of prodigies, I found, is a society that valuesexcellence in a certain field to nurture (培育)

22、 talent.
