About 150 years ago, a German musician sat quietly at a concert in Vienna. They were playing for the first time a new symphony(交響樂) he had composed for the first time.. At the end he turned to face the people at the concert. They were clapping widely. 71_____The musician was Beethoven, one of the greatest composers in the world. Deaf people have a hard time. ___72__.
