Question

Which one of the following BEST describes Beethoven’s father’s attitude to him in the poem, Beethoven?

पर्याय

• He was overbearing.

• He was rude.

• He drove Beethoven to perfection.

• He wanted him to be successful.

Answer 1

He drove Beethoven to perfection.

Explanation:

The song makes Beethoven’s father out to be a mean and strict person. He was always trying to get Beethoven to play better; his efforts were never “good enough,” and he even hit him sometimes. Even though the constant pressure was mean, it was meant to make Beethoven a musical genius by pushing him to get better at what he did.
