When Jackie came to his first piano lesson in his mother's car, he was already 11 years old.I __41 students begin at an earlier age, but owing to his insistence, I took him as a student._42___as Jackie tried, he lacked the sense of tone and basic rhythm.At the end of each lesson he'd say, "My mom's going to hear me play some day." But it seemed 43 .I only knew his mother from a(n) _44 as she waited in her aged car but never stopped in.
Then one day Jackie stopped coming to our lessons.I thought about calling him but assumed because of his lack of ability, that he had decided to ___45__.I was also glad that he stopped coming-he was a bad 46 for my teaching!
Several weeks later I mailed to the students' homes a letter on the 47 concert.Surprisingly, Jackie received and asked me if he could be in the concert. I told him that the concert was not for dropouts, but for 48 pupils.He said that his mom had been sick and unable to take him to piano lessons but he was still practicing.I don't know what led me to agree _49____.
The night for the concert came.The high school gymnasium was packed with parents and friends.I 50___ Jackie last in the program.I thought that any damage he would do would come at the end of the program and the negative effect would reduce to the 51 .
The concert went off smoothly. Then Jackie came up on stage. His clothes were 52 and his hair looked messy. “Why didn’t his mother 53__ make him comb his hair for this special night?” I thought.
I was surprised when Jackie chose Mozart’s Concerto #21 in C Major and not 54__ for what I heard next. 55 , after six and a half minutes he ended up very well. Everyone 56 with excitement. I ran up on stage and put my arms around Jackie in joy. “I’ve never heard you play like that! How’d you do it?” “Well…remember I told you my mom was sick?” he explained, “Actually she had cancer and 57 this morning. And…she was born deaf so tonight was the first time she ever heard me play in heaven. I wanted to make it special.” There wasn’t a 58 eye in the house that evening.
I 59 how much richer my life had been for taking Jackie as my pupil. He was the teacher and I was the pupil, for it is he that taught me the meaning of perseverance and love and maybe even taking a(n) 60 in someone.
