A significant event that marked me indelibly occurred when I was twelve. That year my school held
a music 11 and I was one of the students chosen to play the piano. I managed to get up the steps to
the stage without any problem, but as I walked across the stage, I fell. Out of the audience, a voice said
loudly and clearly, “Ayah! A baikah shouldn't be allowed to perform in public” I got up before anyone
could get on stage to help me and, with tears 12 uncontrollably down my face, I rushed to the piano
and began to play. Beethoven's “Fur Elise” had never been played so 13 fast before or since, but I
managed to finish the whole piece. That I managed to do so made me feel really strong. I never again
feared 14 . In later years I was reminded of this experience from time to time. During my fourth year
as an assistant professor at the University of California at Berkeley, I won a 15 teaching award. 【題組】14 (A) research (B) rigor (C) ridicule (D) rebellion
