Text A Life in a Violin Case  At the beginning of the text, the author briefly tells us about his “ personal history ”.  It is because his grandfather,who took music as an occupation, earned barely enough to provide for the family that the author ’ s parents insisted that he should not go into music as a career.

Text A Life in a Violin Case  The author then tells us that he had to go into business to help his family out of their money problems, but later, he was finally able to go abroad to study music with the money he had saved.  He describes his own feelings, both when he worked in business and when he was studying music.  For example :

Text A Life in a Violin Case  A time in my life that I feel was wasted.  It was just not for me.  Money is all I got out of it.  Life was passing me by.  Enjoyed every minute of it.  I walked on air.  I really lived.

Text A Life in a Violin Case  In the last part of the text, the author expresses his opinion on the major topic in the text: should a person take up a job for money or insist on doing what he/she likes. For the author himself, he chose the second one.  What is your opinion?

structure  The author ’ s personal history  Going into business and studying music  The author ’ s opinion

Details  Despite being greatly respected in the community, he earned barely enough to provide for his large family.  Meaning: Though he was greatly respected by other people in his area, he earned so little that he was almost unable to supply his large family with what they needed for life.

Details  As a consequence of this example in the family, the very mention of music as a career carried with it the idea of an uncertain existence.  Meaning: Because my grandfather had set a negative example for the family, if anyone ever talked about taking up music as a career, the others would think immediately that meant you ’ d have to live without a stable income.

Details  My parents insisted upon college instead of music school, and so to college I went.  Meaning: My parents demanded that I go to college rather than to music school, and so I went to college.

Details  Before I knew it, I had begun my career in business-a time in my life that I feel was wasted.  Meaning: I had already taken up business as a career before I realized it, and now I feel that the period of time I spent doing business was wasted.

Details  I stayed four years, worked harder than I had ever dreamed of working before, and enjoyed every minute of it.  Meaning: I stayed in Europe for four years, worked harder than I had ever thought I would, and enjoyed every minute of my life when I was studying music.

Details  If I had stayed in business, I might be a really wealthy man today.  Meaning: If I had continued to work in business, I might be a really rich man now.  Subjunctive mood  This situation does not exist in reality.

Details  So conditioned are most of us to the idea that success is money —— so much so that the thought of giving up a good salary for happiness seems foolish.  Meaning: Most of us are used to thinking that a person is successful only if he has money. We are so convinced that we think it foolish to give up a well-paid job just for happiness.
