on their nerves. so, she had tried playing in the strangest places: a basement, a kitchen, and even in a shower. but there was always someone it would annoy. one day, while watching a science documentary on tv, she heard that sound cannot travel in space, because theres no air. at that moment, brenda bongos decided to become a sort of musical astronaut. with the help of a lot of time, books and work, brenda built a space bubble. this was a big glass ball connected to a machine which sucked out all the air inside. all that would be left inside was a drum kit（成套设备） and a chair. brenda got into the space suit she had made, entered the bubble, turned on the machine, and played those drums like a wild child. it wasnt long before brenda bongos came very famous. many people came to see her play in her space bubble. shortly afterwards she came out of the bubble and started giving concerts. her fame spread so much that the government suggested that she be part of a unique space journey. finally, brenda was a real musical astronaut, and had gone far beyond her first ambition of playing drums in a band. years later, when asked how she had achieved all this, she thought for a moment, and said: if those old people next door hadnt mattered so much to me, i wouldnt have found a solution, and none of this would have ever happened.56. why did brenda try to play in the strangest places? a. because she didnt want others to hear her play. b. because she didnt mean to disturb others. c. because she didnt have her own room. d. because she didnt like her neighbors.57. brenda
