His mother was his first music teacher. As a young man, he continued his music study in Indianapolis, Indiana.In 1930, he completed musical education at Columbia University in New York City. Then he moved to Washington. For fifteen years, he taught music at Howard University in Washington. At that time, not many black musicians were known for writing or performing classical music. Teaching at Howard gave Duncan the chance to share his knowledge of classical European music with a mainly black student population. He taught special ways to present the music. These special ways became known as the Duncan Technique.Besides teaching, Duncan sang in several operas with performers who were all black. But it seemed that he always would be known mainly as a concert artist. However, his life took a different turn in the middle of 1930s. At that time, the famous American music writer George Gershwin was looking for someone to play a leading part in his new work Porgy and Bess. A music critic (评论家) of The New York Times newspaper suggested Todd Duncan. Duncan had almost decided not to try for the part as he knew it would not be easy to get it. But he changed his mind. He sang a piece from an Italian opera to Gershwin. He had sung only for a few minutes when Gershwin offered him the part. He became famous because of the part in Porgy and Bess.Todd Duncan gained fame as an opera singer and concert artist. But his greatest love in music was teaching. When he stopped teaching at Howard, he continued giving singing lessons in his Washington home until the week before his death.1、What is this passage mainly about?AWhat Robert Todd Duncan loved most.BHow Robert Todd Duncan became famous.CRobert Todd Duncan and his musical productions.DA brief introduction to Robert Todd Duncan.2、What happened to Duncan in the middle of 1930s?AHe gave up teaching at Howard University.BHe was introduced by The New York Times in detail.CHe was asked to be in charge of the opera Porgy and Bess.DHe was given a big opportunity to become an opera singer.3
