AWishing to encourage her young son to make more progress on the piano, a mother took her boy to a Paderewski concert. After they were seated, the mother spotted a friend in the audience and walked down the aisle to greet her.Seizing the opportunity to explore the wonders of the concert hall, the little boy rose and eventually found his way through a door marked "NO ADMITTANCE." When the house lights dimmed and the concert was about to begin, the mother returned to her seat and discovered that the child was missing.Suddenly, the curtains parted and spotlights focused on the impressive Steinway on stage. To her horror, the mother saw her little boy sitting at the keyboard, innocently picking out Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.At that moment, the great pianist made his entrance, quickly moved to the piano, and whispered in the boy's ear, "Don't quit. Keep playing."Then leaning over, Paderewski reached down with his left hand and began filling in a bass part. Soon his right arm reached around to the other side of the child and he added a melody. Together, the old master and the young beginner transformed a frightening situation into a wonderfully creative experience. The audience was amazed and, as it finished, they cheered.That's the way it is in life. What we can accomplish on our own is hardly noteworthy. We tryour best, but the results aren't exactly graceful flowing music. But when we put our trust in the hands of a Greater Power, our life's work can be truly beautiful.Next time you set out to accomplish great feats, listen carefully. You can hear the voice of the Master, whispering in your ear, "Don't quit, and keep playing."21.

The boy and the piano master.B. Padereski, a real master.C. A wonderfully creative experienceD. Don’t quit, keep playingBWhen you start a new job, you must make sure you are a good match for the job.

It is perfectly normal. Everyone faces it some time or the other.First of all, the fear is only in the mind. So relax your mind before it is time for you to go onstage.

This can be remedied(补救) by practicing thoroughly the speech or item scores of times with your family/friends as an audience. You could also stand before a mirror and watch yourself speak.Thirdly, the fear may be because of the large number of people that you have to face.

She spent her summer vacation flying to Nigeria to campaign for the release of girls kidnapped by the extremist Islamist group Boko Haram, but also worrying about her grades, which recently took a worrisome dip. She faced President Obama about American drone policy(无人机政策) in a meeting last year, but finds it difficult to make friends with her fellow students in Birmingham, England.“I want to have fun, but I don’t quite know how,” she wrote in the edition of her autobiography for young readers.On Friday, Ms. Yousafzai became the youngest winner of the Nobel Peace Prize —grouped in the same pantheon as the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Mother Teresa, and yet still a student at Edgbaston High School for Girls, where she was summoned(召唤) out of her chemistry class to hear the news.Ms. Yousafzai began campaigning for girls’education at the age of 11, three years before she was shot by the Taliban. The prize she received on Friday accepts what she has taken on, but also shows expectations to her: Can she truly influence the culture of her home country of Pakistan, which she cannot even visit because of threats to her safety, and where many people see her as a tool of the West?And yet in an interview last August, Ms. Yousafzai said that she rarely watches television and deleted the Candy Crush game from her iPad to prevent a growing addiction.As a child in Pakistan, she had access to only a handful of books, she said, but one was a biography of Dr. King, giving her an early sense of what one activist could accomplish.In a brie f speech in Birmingham on Friday, she called the prize “an encouragement for me to go forward and believe in myself.”32.
