Read the article below. For questions 41-50, choose the answer (A, B, C or D) which you think fits
best according to the text.
Harry Houdini, who died in 1927, was the entertainment phenomenon of the ragtime era. He could
escape from chains and padlocks, from ropes and canvas sacks. They put him in a strait jacket and hung
him upside down from a skyscraper and he somehow untied himself. They tied him up in a locked
packing case and sank him in Liverpool docks. Minutes later he surfaced smiling. They locked
him in a zinc-lined Russian prison van and he emerged leaving the doors locked and the locks
undamaged. They padlocked him in a milk churn full of water and he burst free. They put him in a
coffin, screwed down the lid, and buried him and ... well, no, he didn't pop up like a mole, but when
they dug him up more than half an hour later, he was still breathing.
Houdini would usually allow his equipment to be examined by the audience. The chains, locks and
packing cases all seemed perfectly genuine, so it was tempting to conclude that he possessed
superhuman powers. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes was the very paragon of analytical
thinking but Conan Doyle believed that Houdini achieved his tricks through spiritualism. Indeed,
he wrote to the escapologist imploring him to use his psychic powers more profitably for the
common good instead of just prostituting his talent every night at the Alhambra. However, Houdini
repeatedly denounced spiritualism and disclaimed any psychic element to his act.
The alternative explanation for his feats of escapism was that Houdini could do unnatural things
with his body. It is widely held that he could dislocate his shoulders to escape from strait-jackets,
and that he could somehow contract his wrists in order to escape from handcuffs. His ability to
spend long periods in confined spaces is cited as evidence that he could put his body into suspended
animation, as Indian fakirs are supposed to do.
This is all nonsense. If you ever find yourself in a strait-jacket, it's difficult to imagine anything less
helpful than a dislocated shoulder. Contracting your wrists is not only unhelpful but, frankly,
impossible because the bones of your wrist are very tightly packed together and the whole structure
is virtually incompressible. As for suspended animation, the trick of surviving burial and drowning
relies on the fact that you can live for short periods on the air in a confined space. The air shifted by
an average person in a day would occupy a cube just eight feet square. The build-up of carbon
monoxide tends to pollute this supply, but, if you can relax, the air in a coffin should keep you going
for half an hour or so.

In other words, there was nothing physically remarkable about Houdini except for his bravery ,skill
and fitness. His nerve was so cool that he could remain in a coffin six feet underground until they
came to dig him up. His fingers were so strong that he could undo a buckle or manipulate keys
through the canvas of a strait jacket or a mail bag. He made a comprehensive study of Jocks and
was able to conceal lock-picks about his person in a way which fooled even the doctors who
examined him. When they locked him in the prison van he still had a hacksaw blade with which to
saw through the joins in the metal lining and get access to the planks of the floor. As an entertainer
he combined all this strength and ingenuity with a lot of trickery. His stage escapes took place
behind a curtain with an orchestra playing to disguise the banging and sawing. The milk churn in
which he was locked had a double lining so that, while the lid was locked onto the rim, the rim was
not actually attached to the churn. Houdini merely had to stand up to get out. The mail sack he cut
open at the seam and sewed up with similar thread. The bank safe from which he emerged had
been secretly worked on by his mechanics for 24 hours before the performance.
All Houdini's feats are eminently explicable, although to explain them, even now, is a kind of heresy.
Houdini belongs to that band of mythical supermen who, we like to believe, were capable of
miracles and would still be alive today were it not for some piece of low trickery. It's said of Houdini
that a punch in his belly when he wasn't prepared for it caused his burst appendix. Anatomically,
it's virtually impossible that a punch could puncture your gut, but the story endures. Somehow
the myth of the superman has an even greater appeal than the edifice of twenty-first century logic.

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 skill
as a result of a well-designed instructional regime, such as the Suzuki method for the violin. Some have
the 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, including pitch and
rhythm. Pitch—or melody—is more central in certain cultures, for example, in Eastern societies that
make use of tiny quarter-tone intervals. Rhythm, sounds produced at certain auditory frequencies and
grouped according to a prescribed system, is emphasized in sub-Saharan Africa, 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 sound 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 emerge in young children as they learn to sing. Some children car 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.
The early appearance of superior musical ability in some children provides evidence 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 had 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 age 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 may be the primary mode of communication, and the child may cling to music because it
represents a haven in a world that is largely confusing and frightening.

A. strong interest B. good luck C. advanced skill D. personal style

develop these talents.
C. Children with exceptional musical talent will look for the best way to express themselves through
music-making.

exposure to music.

“FREEBIE" MARKETING
In the late 1890s, while travelling as a(n) (1)______ salesperson for the Crown, Cork and Seal
Company, King C. Gillette observed how his (2)______bottle caps were discarded immediately after
opening. Nevertheless, his company turned a(n) (3)______ profit and there was immense business value,
Gillette soon came to realise. In a product that was used only a few times, Gillette had his own personal
(4)______ while struggling with a straight-bladed razor - a slow, fiddly and potentially dangerous
instrument that required (5)______ on a regular basis. A simple, (6)______ blade that could be thrown
away when it dulled would meet a real need and generate strong profits, he correctly reasoned. After
founding the American Safety Razor Company in 1901, his sales leapt from 168 blades in 1903 to
123,648 blades only a year later.
What King C. Gillette pioneered is far more than a convenient and (7)______ way for men to shave,
however, it is the business practice now known as “freebie marketing” that has inspired many more
companies over the years. Gillette's approach was contrary to the received (8)______ of his era, which
held that a single, durable, high-quality and relatively expensive consumer item with a high profit margin
was the best foundation for a business. Freebie marketing involves two sets of items: a master product
that is purchased once, and a consumable product that is frequently disposed of and repurchased on a(n)
(9)______ basis. In this instance, the master product is often sold with little to no profit margin and is
sometimes even dispensed at a loss. As the (10)______ are purchased over months and years, however,
this can yield a much greater overall profit.
