A Ludwig Van Beethoven was born in Bonn in1770. He began learning the violin and piano when he was only five and by the time he was 8, he began giving concerts. He received little school education except music. At the age of 14, he had a chance to visit Vienna, where Mozart heard him play and spoke highly of him. Later he had lessons from Haydn. It was in this period that he made himself as a composer (作曲家). Though he was poor then, he was better off in spirits.
A terrible disaster (灾难) happened to him. In 1789, he began to lose his hearing. Though much of his music he was not able to hear, he never gave up composing. He went on working with all his strength. He wrote nine symphonies (交响乐), more than thirty piano sonatas (奏鸣曲) and so on. In 1827 the genius died during a thunderstorm.

Travelling west, you set your clock back; travelling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours.
If you travel by ship across the Pacific, you cross the International Date Line. By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins. When you cross the line, you change your calendar one full day, backward or forward. Travelling east, today becomes yesterday; travelling west, it is tomorrow!

The jobs of US presidents are tiring. He must keep an eye on anything important which happens both at home and abroad. Every day, a lot of work waits for him to do and he has to make many important decisions. When Franklin Roosevelt was a child, he was once brought to visit President Taft.

One possible version:
Someone says examinations can help us go over our lessons in time, and after the examinations we can find how we are getting on with our studies. But we are always having too many examinations and they are usually too difficult for us to get through, so that we have lost interest in our lessons. Besides, it is harmful to our health as we hardly have any time to go in for sports. I think it is time to improve examinations now.
