As a student, I was most afraid to answer questions in class. At the beginning of each class, when the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid that the teacher saw me.
One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions. But no one answered. “Let me tell you a story first,” he said.
“When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took cardboards folded (折叠的) in half, wrote their names on them with the most eye-catching color, and then placed the cardboards on the desks. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see and call a listener's name directly.”
“I couldn't understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people, who meant chances. When your answer was to his surprise, it meant he might give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that.”
After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance.

When you sit before a piano or take up your guitar, do you think about why you play music

The school invited Mabus to give a show to more than 50 seventh-graders on March 27.The students have either taken or are taking a guitar class at the school. Mabus performed a number of short pieces. He also taught students several skills for playing the guitar.
But more importantly, his performance taught students that playing the guitar can “take you anywhere you can imagine”, according to the school's guitar teacher George Rousseau.
“Sometimes students get sad...They don't see why we do the things in the class, and then they see Mr. Mabus perform and know that the work will pay off,” Rousseau told The Daily News.
Mabus began playing around the same age as the students. “It's always nice to have a way to express myself after a bad day or good day” he said. “Music gives you a way to be expressive (表现的).”
Seventh-grader Cooper Hewitt, 12, has been playing the guitar for several years. He said he learned a lot from Mabus. “I really enjoyed the folk music. Most of my family enjoy old music like that,” he said. “I will try to use music to express myself.”

The great Chinese composer (作曲家) had different names in different places. In China, he is remembered as Xian Xinghai, one of the greatest musicians. In Kazakhstan(哈萨克斯坦), he was known as Huang Xun, a poor person with amazing talent.
Wherever he went, his music gave people courage and strength to fight against enemies during wartime. His Yellow River Cantata once encouraged millions of people.
When the war broke out, the composer was working in Moscow. He tried to return home through Kazakhstan. But because of the war, he was left alone in the Kazakh city of Almaty. He was sitting on his suitcase with a violin in hand when Kazakh musician Baikadamov noticed him. Baikadamov spoke Kazakh and Russian, while the composer replied in English and French. “But it was clear that the Chinese musician really needed help. So my father just took his hand and led him to us,” Baikadamov's daughter said. “From then on they became great friends. Together they overcame the wartime hardships and wrote a new chapter (篇章) in the history of music.”

“Without music, life would be a mistake,” a famous German named Friedrich Nietzsche said over a century ago. Music is a big part of our lives. But in recent years, some US schools have cut music classes. In fact, this is not just a problem in the USA. In many countries music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science and math. People don't think music is a very important life skill, and it isn't tested. However, learning music is useful in many ways. When you play music, you need different abilities to work together. For example, when you play the piano, people see music notes in their brains. They also use their fingers to make sounds.

One Possible Version:
Good afternoon, everyone! I'd like to introduce my favorite song to all of you.
For me,I can't live without pop music because I feel relaxed as I listen to this kind of music. My favorite song is Love Story. lt is one of the most popular songs that sung by an American singer. When I first listened to it, I lost myself in it. I prefer music that has great lyrics. And Love Story tells a wonderful story that makes me moved. Besides, I think the singer's singing ability is nice. She has a good voice so the music attracts me.
In my opinion, music makes our lives full of happiness. When I listen to music,I forget all the bad things that happen on that day. Listening to music is really a good way to relax.
That's all. Thanks for your listening.
