18、layed his first piece Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven.

19、do is special. Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents, but music teachers told him he should study music instead. Now, he studies law and music.Samuel cant understand why everyone is so surprised. “I grew up with music. My mother played the piano and my father played the
20、guitar. About two years ago, I suddenly decided to start playing the piano, without being able to read music and without having any lessons. It comes easily to me -I hear the notes and can bear them in mind-each and every note,” says Samuel.Recently, Samuel performed a piece during a special event a
21、t his college. The piece had more than a thousand notes. The audience was impressed by his amazing performance. He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists cant play it. Samuel says confidently,” Its all about super memory-I guess I have that gift.”However, Samuel

26、mber things accurately.C. He plays the piano better than many professional pianists.D. He impressed the audience by playing all the musical pieces.COn this program we explore common expressions in American English. Today, we talk about expressions that began behind the wheels of automobiles. Now the
27、y are common expressions that we use in everyday conversations.Well, lets not delay any longer. Lets get this show on the road!“To get the show on the road” means to begin something as soon as possible. Its a casual expression that we use when we want to start something, anything an activity or proj
28、ect or an actual road trip.Well, not any activity. You would not likely use this expression to begin something sad, such as a funeral. It is a lighthearted expression.So, the person who says “hey, lets get this show on the road!” is taking charge. They want to start things. They want to get things g
29、oing. You could say they are in the drivers seat. Just as the driver is in control of their vehicle, the person in the drivers seat of an activity, event or project is also in control.

30、ost money. When you take a taxi you must pay for it. If you drive a car, you must pay for gas, repairs and insurance. It is great when you get a free ride to where you are going.However, in life, to get a free ride means to gain from something without having to do anything in exchange. It can be ann
31、oying to have a friend or co-worker who is always trying to get a free ride. They do not give. They just take, take, take!Now, when we are actually driving, the phrase go down that road simply means to drive down a road. We would say this when we give directions. “Go down that road for about a mile
32、and youll see your destination on the right.”But in conversations, it has an interesting meaning. To go down that road means to make a decision. But its more than that. It also means that this decision may bring trouble or leave you in a difficult place. We often use this phrase as a warning.29. The

36、lso helps our brains remember. Our brains need good sleep to remember what we do and learn during the other two thirds of our lives when we are awake.Researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have found that sleep helps improve brain performance by shrinking (收缩) synapses in the brain. A sy
37、napse is the area where cells pass messages to other cells.Scientist Chiara Cirelli is a leading investigator at the schools Center for Sleep and Consciousness. She told the reporter that sleep is when the human brain mixes information it has learned while awake into its general collection of knowle
38、dge. Meanwhile, the brain forgets unimportant details. This forgetting is important. It makes space for new learning and new memories.Cirelli said that the Centers research began with this hypothesis (假设): We sleep so that our brain can repair and refresh itself. She said the idea seems simple and r
39、easonable. However, testing and discovering how it works has been extremely difficult.Synapses are only about 20-40 nanometers wide. The team began their study by measuring the size of the synapses to look for changes in these already tiny spaces between nerve cells. Cirelli said the process is diff
40、icult because “all the actual measurements of the synapses have to be done by hand.” The team had to wait until improvements in laboratory technology made it possible to see these tiny changes. A University of Wisconsin press release called the research a “huge job.“ Many research specialists worked
