Ann wanted to play in the city orchestra (管弦乐队), but she was nervous. She thought it was too difficult. The first day she was so nervous, and she could hardly breathe. After a few training, she could play along with everyone else. She found that there was no reason to be nervous and began to enjoy herself.

Danny is Ann’s new friend in the orchestra. He sat next to Ann and always helped her. Ann often asked him questions about music. Danny’s parents were musicians. They started teaching Danny music when he was only five years old. Ann couldn’t imagine playing the violin at that age.

On the night of the concert, Ann was excited. Danny and Marie both told her that the concert would be fun. Ann knew that she would enjoy it. The conductor (指挥) Mike was nervous.

Years ago, I worked as a teacher in a school. Jess was a student in my class. She worked hard but didn’t do well in her study. She was always good to her classmates, although they weren’t usually kind to her. And she didn’t talk much at school.

When the school show came around, Jess said she wanted to sing a song at the show. I was afraid that others might laugh at (嘲笑) her, but I still agreed.

The day of the show came. All the students came to watch the show. It began and each performance (表演) was excellent.

I heard the sound of somebody clapping (拍手) along to the music. It was Tyson, another student in my class. He clapped and soon his friends joined him. Slowly, the other Grade 8 students clapped, and then all the students in our school chapped for Jess.
