In an entrance examination of a conservatory of music，the teacher asked one of the boys，"What is the most important physiological quality of a musician”

在一次音乐学院的入学考试中，老师问一位应试的小伙子:“音乐家最重要的生理素质是什么?”

"To be deaf，”replied the boy.

“耳聋。”小伙子回答说。

"Nonsense”said the teacher angrily

“胡说!”老师愤怒地说。

"Why, sirs Don't you know that the most famous musician Beethoven was deaf?”the boy asked in reply disdainfully.

“怎么了，先生!您难道连鼎鼎大名的音乐家贝多芬是个聋子都不知道吗?”小伙子轻蔑地反问道。
