Question

It was a rainy morning and the children mainly boys with various learning difficulties refused     61   (settle) for the start of the lesson. As    62  inexperienced teacher I tried every means to get them to be quiet but    63    vain. my panic was rising and I could feel my heart beating wildly. This was the end of my job as a music teacher I thought -- teaching was not for me. Then I had an idea. Hoping that no one would notice that I was shaking inside I  64    (throw) my voice as far as it would reach: "Put your heads on the desks and close your eyes! We are going on a journey."

          65   (amaze) the children fell silent. "Now what should I do?" I thought to myself.    66   (reach) over to my collection of CDs I blindly took one out put it in the machine and played it.

      Obediently (顺从地) my class laid their heads on their desk closed their eyes and waited. When the music started the room was    67   (fill) with the most beautiful tones and musical colors I could have ever imagined. All the children   68    (listen). When the music finished I asked them all to raise their heads slowly so that we could share our musical journey.

     At this point when all the children were willing to share their experiences I began to learn    69   to teach . The music allowed me to learn that teaching is about sharing and respect   70    (tear) and smiles the knowing and the unknown and most of all an understanding of each other. This was the power that music in the classroom could have.
