题目

阅读理解 I began learning playing the violin when I was nine, and the next year I began studying under Natalie Ghent, who was my teacher until I left high school. Once, Mrs. Ghent held a concert for her students. I played near the end of it. After I played a while, I forgot the music. No matter how I tried, I couldn't think of it. So I had to stop and looked at the pianist's music. When the whole concert was over, I cried hiding in my overcoat. Mrs. Ghent came to comfort me. Then she told us about a coming concert, and she hoped I would go there with her. I remember that the concert was on my birthday in March. It was great, as Mischa Elman was going to perform at Carnegie Hall. My teacher decided to buy the best tickets as my birthday present. Carnegie Hall is quite beautiful with all the lights on. I had never been in such a concert hall before, and was impressed by the size as well. I don't remember what Elman played. I only remember that his playing was beautiful. I have seen films of him in recent years, and have been struck by his performance, but I don't remember the music he played that night. What I remember most is that Mrs. Ghent whispered to me from time to time that he had forgotten something or played a wrong note, or had made some other kinds of mistakes. When I teach students to play the violin now, I tell my students who are in dread of making mistakes that if they aren't going to make a mistake, they will never play beautiful music.
