Read the passage and mark A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s was the only-surviving son of Leopold and Maria Pertl Mozart. Leopold
was a successful composer, violinist, and assistant concert master at the Salzburg court. Wolfgang’s
mother, Anna Maria Pertl, was born to a middle class family of local community leaders. His only
sister was Maria Anna (nicknamed “Nannerl”). With their father’s encouragement and guidance, they
both were introduced to music at an early age. Leopold started Nannerl on keyboard when she was
seven, as three- year old Wolfgang looked on. Mimicking her playing, Wolfgang quickly began to
show a strong understanding of chords, tonality, and tempo. Soon, he too was being tutored by his
father.
Leopold was a devoted and task-oriented teacher to both his children. He made the lessons fun, but
also insisted on a strong work ethic and perfection. Fortunately, both children excelled well in these
areas. Recognizing their special talents, Leopold devoted much of his time to their education in music
as well as other subjects. Wolfgang soon showed signs of excelling beyond his father’s teachings with
an early composition at age five and demonstrating outstanding ability on harpsichord and the violin.
He would soon go on to play the piano, organ and viola.

Hip-Hop Planet
 Hip-hop started in New York in the 1970s but has become popular all over the world. Today, many
countries have their own local hip-hop scenes. Artists from different backgrounds rap about everything
from cars and designer clothes to social issues. Here are some examples.
Europe is home to 10-12 million Roma – a group of people often called “gypsies”. Many Roma are
poor. In some places, they also face discrimination. Now some Roma teenagers are using hip-hop to

from South Africa. In the lessons, the teens learn to write rap music and use it to teach others about
Roma culture. These teens, Williams believes, can use music to change their lives and other people’s
attitudes.
