B
I joined a band as a drummer in my middle school. I thought it would be fun playing the drums and meeting new friends. At first, it was easy, but a month later, it got difficult. I was the only one who couldn't keep pace(节奏) with the other players.
Our teacher, Angie, singled me out to keep practicing while everyone else got to relax. I felt ashamed(羞愧的) as my teammates watched me fail so many times. Finally I got so tired of practicing that I didn't care about doing it right.
“Are you giving up on me, Steve?” Angie asked.
“Yes, I am,” I shouted. Angie sent me inside the music room, where I cried out. Then she came in and said, “Don't be sad. I believe you can make it!” She told me never to give up. She left me alone and I realized Angie was right — by giving up, I was also giving up on the team and myself.
With her comfort, I decided to go on practicing. However, I still couldn't play well. Knowing my difficulties, my teammates gave me a hand. They spent about three more hours practicing with me every week. Thanks to their support and help, I began to keep pace with them. Later, we performed wonderfully in an important show.
In the whole process, I was taught that although we each had our own job to do in a show, it would take all of us working together to make the show great. I felt accepted and made great progress. I love everyone in the band. I can't imagine what my school life would be like without them.
16. One month after he joined the band, Steve felt playing the drums was ________.
A. funny B. helpful
C. noisy D. difficult
17. With Angie’s comfort, Steve decided to ________.
A. have a good rest
B. go on practicing
C. give others a hand
D. start another band
18. From Steve’s experience, he learned about ________.
A. the value of teamwork
B. the effect of shows
C. the importance of hobbies
D. the power of music
