“The best age to start learning the violin is between three and six,” says Margaret Porter, a violinist and music teacher. “It's the time when you are learning about the world.” Margaret, who lives in London, prefers to take pupils at three and four, although she has made lots of exceptions for keen five-year-olds. When she started teaching the violin in 1972, her first class consisted of her children's five-year-old school friends. 

Margaret's pupils have group lessons. Each group has about a dozen pupils and each lesson lasts an hour, once a fortnight. In addition, each pupil has one individual lesson a week with her. Parents also have to attend the classes. It is important that the parents take an active interest in the lessons. From the earliest lessons pupils learn to play by ear. They do not even try to read music until they have been playing for several years, and for a long time there is a big difference between their playing and reading of music. Margaret says that her method is not supposed to produce great violinists, and always suggests that pupils who perform particularly well should leave and study the violin using more traditional methods.

A. Explain why Margaret has a lot of pupils. 

B. Describe a different way of learning the violin.

Question 15. Why should someone read the text? 

A. To discover how Margaret learnt the violin. 

B. To learn why children should play the violin. 

C. To find out about Margaret's teaching method. 

D. To learn why it is important to read music. 

Question 16. What opinion does Margaret have about her best pupils? 

A. They take several years to learn to read music. 

B. They ought to find another teacher. 

C. They could try harder. 

D. They will become great violinists using her method. 

Question 17. Margaret's first pupils were_____ 

A. her own friends.    B. three- and four-year-olds. 

C. her children's friends.    D. her children.
