Mary always wanted
to be a singer. Music was the most important part in her life. Unluckily, she had
a bad voice. Although she took lessons for many years, her voice didn't get better.
In fact, it just got louder. Her teacher was disappointed and finally stopped teaching
her, but Mary refused to stop. She kept on practicing herself.
One day, she decided
to give a concert and invited her teacher to it. The teacher was very worried about
what to say after the concert. He knew it was a terrible one. At last he got an
idea. When the concert was over, he went to see Mary.
Well," said Mary.
"What do you think of my concert?"
My dear," said
the teacher. "You'll never be better than you are tonight."
