　　A

　　About 17 years ago,I started an adult music class at Austin Community College.I already had a private studio of young talented kids,and one adult student who had played some brass instrument in junior high band,but wanted to learn the violin.Leslie was her name and she was my first adult student.

　　She came to lessons knowing how to read music,but that was all about it.After our first couple of lessons,I thought for sure she wouldn’t last.I saw the long,hard battle in front of her,and many times,I must admit,I thought of suggesting that she choose another instrument,something easier,like piano or guitar.Although she was very anxious,she never let it stop her.As I watched Leslie slowly develop into a good violinist,my own ideas and feelings changed about teaching adult students.

　　Because I started as a child I had never experienced what my adult student had: the burning desire to learn the violin, the will to continue.I had never owned those things.For me learning to play was the by-product(副产品)of a childhood activity chosen for me by my mother.

　　After a few years of lessons,Leslie’s skills were growing and I thought it would be nice for her to play with other people,so I opened an adult music class at Austin Community College.Again,the outcome of that experience I couldn’t have imagined either.Besides being a ton of fun for me,Leslie met three other women in the class who decided after the term was over to get together once a week to play string quartets(弦乐四重奏).I recently ran into Lola(the oldest member of the group who is now in her 70’s)and she said the group still meets regularly.

　　【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文,Leslie是作者教的学习小提琴的第一个成年学生,一开始作者对她充满担心,但她的坚持和决心最终使她成了一名优秀的小提琴手,这改变了作者认为成年人不适合学小提琴的观念。

　　Every day is a gift,and if you look forward to spending each day with happiness, wake up every morning with a positive attitude and enjoy a beautiful day!

　　Set up a daily plan for yourself and ensure that you reserve enough time for your homework.Also,don’t forget to spare some time for play!Stop being lazy and start participating in your life instead of just watching it pass by.Try to do something fun and constructive every day.Read a book,write something interesting in your diary,try a new hobby,spend time with your friends,or just watch your favorite show on television,and you will see how every moment of your day unfolds.You’ll achieve better results,and ultimately greater success.

　　However,every day will not be the way you want it to be.Some days will be good,while some will be bad.You won’t be always happy and smiling.You may come across many challenges.Don’t forget to remind yourself to slow down and take care of yourself.In today’s busy lifestyle,it is necessary to relax to bring balance and joy back into your life.So,take charge of your life.Enjoy and appreciate the small things around you.Do a good deed and make others happy.Sometimes,doing something as simple as having a cup of tea with an old friend or a family member,listening to a cheerful song,or just writing down all the things that make you happy could indeed turn your day around!

　　Review and analyze your day before you retire at night.Reward yourself for completing the set goals and prepare the stage for the next day.This will impact your sleep and overall happiness levels.Plan for the next day,take a good rest,and wake up fresh the next morning!

　　If you feel you are doing the same things every day,step out of your comfort zone and set aside some time to do things you have never done before.Stretch your limits.Not only will it make a boring day exciting but it will also build your confidence.
