At that time, people of upper class usually had supper at around 8 o’clock in the evening. But Anna began to feel hungry at round 4 in the afternoon. This had left her a good long time of 4 hours. Therefore, she told the servant to bring a tray of bread, butter and cakes to her room during the afternoon. It became a habit of hers.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)：(12分)‎ On December 23, 2008, Niu Niu held a piano recital(独奏会) at the national Grand Theater. As an eleven-year-old boy, he became the youngest pianist ever to perform a concert at the theater. ‎ Never too young to learn Niu Niu was born into a musical family in Xiamen. His father Zhang was a piano teacher. Niu Niu grew up listening to his father's student playing the piano. At just three years old, Niu Niu asked his father to teach him to play, too.‎ ‎"I gave Niu Niu some sheet music(活动乐谱)and helped him find the eight notes(琴键)when he first played the piano. To my surprise, he played nearly 80 percent correct," said the father. He used to think that 3 years old is too young an age to learn piano, but Niu Niu changed his mind. He continued to allow Niu Niu to watch his teaching of other students and gave him more sheet music to play.‎ Playing for fun Zhang started teaching Niu Niu standard piano lessons when he was four. Unlike many other piano teachers, Zhang didn’t insist that Niu Niu play strictly with the correct finger positioning(指法). He said that the strict finger positioning would rob some kids of fun of playing. So Niu Niu could play in his own way. He could play the tone successfully. But Niu Niu was required to play the music without looking at the sheet music. Now he can memorize about 80 pages.‎ Rising to fame In 2003, at the age of 6, Niu Niu successfully held a sole concert(独唱音乐会) in his hometown Xiamen. At the age of 8, he gave a performance at the International Piano Festival in France. At the age of 10, Niu Niu played in London and his performance was praised by Prince Charles. Last year, this young pianist published his first album(专辑)“Niu Niu Plays Mozart” and over 10,000 copies have been sold in the world.‎ We are very glad to see a young Chinese pianist rising in the music world.‎ ‎93.
