It was an ordinary day when I got a message from my daughter's kindergarten about an upcoming school dance performance. At first，I thought，“How wonderful! I can't wait to see her perform!” But to my dismay，I discovered it wasn't just the students；parents were expected to join as well. “Oh，my god. I'm short of rhythm，coordination（协调性）and having stage（舞台）fear. How could I take part in it?”
That evening my idea was destroyed as my daughter came home excitedly，“Dad，this is going to be fun. We should wear matching pink T-shirts and stand at the front so everyone can see us.” And so，we began with practice in front of the television. The first at-home practice went as badly as you could imagine. And fast forward to Saturday. It was time for a group practice at school. Given the short notice，I expected the other parents to be struggling as much as me. I was wrong. They moved so well that they were equal to the dancers of Bolshoi Ballet.
In the days to come we worked very hard and both our confidence and coordination improved quickly. My daughter moved like a swan（天鹅），while I still moved like an elephant. The day of the big show arrived and my nervousness became less. It turns out that getting nowhere near enough sleep before a big performance is the perfect cure for stage fear. Moreover，my daughter was having the time of her life and that alone powered me through.
Reflecting on the past two weeks，I realized this experience had enriched our lives. It marked the first time my daughter and I learned something new together. I find myself looking forward to similar events like this in the future.

1. C 词义猜测题。根据画线词的上文“At first, I thought, ‘How wonderful! I can't wait to see her perform!’”和下文“...I discovered it wasn't just the students; parents were expected to join as well...How could I take part in it?’”可知，作者以为只有女儿需要表演，后来发现家长居然也要参与其中。由此可知，家长也要参与其中的消息令作者非常惊讶。故选C。
2. A 推理判断题。根据第三段中“It turns out that getting nowhere near enough sleep before a big performance is the perfect cure for stage fear.”可推知，演出前作者没睡好。故选A。

4. B 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“It was an ordinary day when I got a message from my daughter’s kindergarten about an upcoming school dance performance.”可知，
