Considered the most influential architect of his time, Frank Lloyd Wright (1867–1959) was born in the small rural community of Richland Center, Wisconsin. He entered the University of Wisconsin at the age of 15 as a special student, studying engineering because the school had no course in architecture. At the age of 20 he then went to work as a draftsman in Chicago in order to learn the traditional, classical language of architecture. After marrying into a wealthy business family at the age of 21, Wright set up house in an exclusive neighborhood in Chicago, and after a few years of working for a number of architectural firms, set up his own architectural office.

For twenty years he brought up a family of six children upstairs, and ran a thriving architectural practice of twelve or so draftsmen downstairs. Here, in an idyllic American suburb, with giant oaks, sprawling lawns, and no fences, Wright built some sixty rambling homes by the year 1900. He became the leader of a style known as the “Prairie” school – houses with low–pitched roofs and extended lines that blended into the landscape and typified his style of “organic architecture”.

By the age of forty–one, in 1908, Wright had achieved extraordinary social and professional success. He gave countless lectures at major universities, and started his Taliesin Fellowship – a visionary social workshop in itself. In 1938 he appeared on the cover of Time magazine, and later, on a two cent stamp. The most spectacular buildings of his mature period were based on forms borrowed from nature, and the intentions were clearly romantic, poetic, and intensely personal. Examples of these buildings are Tokyo’s Imperial Hotel (1915–22: demolished 1968), and New York City’s Guggenheim Museum (completed 1959). He continued working until his death in 1959, at the age of 92, although in his later years, he spent as much time giving interviews and being a celebrity, as he did in designing buildings. Wright can be considered an essentially idiosyncratic architect whose influence was immense but whose pupils were few.

Martin Luther King, Jr., is well known for his work in civil rights and for his many famous speeches, among them is his moving “I Have A Dream” speech. But fewer people know much about King’s childhood. M.L., as he was called, was born in 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia, at the home of his maternal grandfather. M.L.’s grandfather, the Reverend A.D. Williams, purchased their home on Auburn Avenue in 1909, twenty years before M.L. was born. The Reverend Williams, an eloquent speaker, played an important role in the community since so many people’s lives centered around the church. He allowed his church and his home to be used as a meeting place for a number of organizations dedicated to the education and social advancement of blacks. M.L. grew up in this atmosphere, with his home being used as a community gathering place, and was no doubt influenced by it.

M.L.’s childhood was not especially eventful. His father was a minister and his mother was a musician. He was the second of three children, and he attended all-black schools in a black neighborhood. The neighborhood was not poor, however. Auburn Avenue was the main artery through a prosperous neighborhood that had come to symbolize achievement for Atlanta’s black people. It was an area of banks, insurance companies, builders, jewelers, tailors, doctors, lawyers, and other black-owner, black-operated businesses, and services. Even in the face of Atlanta’s segregation, the district thrived. Dr. King never forgot the community spirit he had known as a child, nor did he forget the racial prejudice that was a seemingly insurmountable barrier that kept black Atlanta from mingling with whites.

According to the author, M.L.

A. had a difficult childhood

B. was a good musician as a child

C. loved to listen to his grandfather speak

D. grew up in a relatively rich area of Atlanta

Chọn A

Dịch bài đọc:

Được coi là kiến trúc sư có ảnh hưởng nhất trong thời đại của mình, Frank Lloyd Wright (1867–1959) sinh ra tại một vùng nông thôn nhỏ ở Trung tâm Richland, Wisconsin. Ông vào Đại học Wisconsin năm 15 tuổi với tư cách là một sinh viên đặc biệt, học ngành kỹ sư vì trường không có ngành học về kiến trúc. Năm 20 tuổi, ông áy đi làm thợ thiết kế ở Chicago để học ngôn ngữ kiến trúc cổ điển truyền thống. Sau khi kết hôn với một gia đình kinh doanh giàu có ở tuổi 21, Wright đã xây dựng nhà tại một khu phố độc quyền ở Chicago, và sau vài năm làm việc cho một số công ty kiến trúc, ông đã thành lập văn phòng kiến trúc của riêng mình.

Trong hai mươi năm, ông đã nuôi dưỡng một gia đình gồm sáu đứa trẻ ở tầng trên, và điều hành một công ty kiến trúc phát đạt với mười hai người thợ thiết kế ở tầng dưới. Ở đây, trong một vùng ngoại ô bình dị của Mỹ, với những cây sồi khổng lồ, những bãi cỏ trải dài và không có hàng rào, Wright đã xây dựng khoảng sáu mươi ngôi nhà rầm rộ vào năm 1900. Ông trở thành người tiên phong của một phong cách được gọi là trường phái “Prairie” – những ngôi nhà có mái thấp và những đường kéo dài hòa quyện vào cảnh quan và tiêu biểu cho phong cách kiến trúc hữu cơ của ông ấy.

Ở tuổi bốn mươi mốt, vào năm 1908, Wright đã đạt được thành công phi thường về mặt xã hội và nghề nghiệp. Ông đã giảng dạy vô số bài giảng tại các trường đại học lớn, và thành lâp cộng đồng Taliesin – bản chất là một hội thảo xã hội có tầm nhìn. Năm 1938, ông xuất hiện trên trang bìa của tạp chí Time, và sau đó, trên một con tem hai xu. Các tòa nhà ngoạn mục nhất trong thời kỳ trưởng thành của ông dựa trên các hình dáng mượn từ thiên nhiên, và các ý định rõ ràng là lãng mạn, thơ mộng và mang đậm dấu ấn cá nhân. Ví dụ về các tòa nhà này là Khách sạn Hoàng gia ở Tokyo (1915–22: bị phá hủy năm 1968) và Bảo tàng Guggenheim ở thành phố New York (hoàn thành năm 1959). Ông tiếp tục làm việc cho đến khi qua đời vào năm 1959, ở tuổi 92, mặc dù trong những năm cuối đời, ông dành nhiều thời gian cho các cuộc phỏng vấn và trở thành người nổi tiếng, như ông đã làm trong việc thiết kế các tòa nhà. Wright có thể được coi là một kiến trúc sư cực kỳ khác biệt, có tầm ảnh hưởng lớn nhưng không có nhiều học sinh.
