Starting from my second year of primary school, there was one event I hated every year: the piano recital. I didn’t want to practice a boring piece of music and was scared to perform in front of strangers. Each year I would ask my father if I could skip the recital “just this once”. And he would say something about building self-confidence and working towards a goal.So I was very proud when I stood in church(教堂) and watched my father play the piano during his very first concert. My father wanted to play music when he was small. But his mother couldn’t afford his lessons. Three years ago, when he retired(退休), he asked the church music director, Charles, to take him as a student. Just before the concert, Charles told me my dad was playing “the best I’ve ever seen him.” For a moment after my father sat down at the keyboard, he simply started down at his fingers. I wondered whether he would even begin. But then Aram Khachaturian’s Melody(交响乐) began. It seemed that my father took the music so seriously that he didn’t realize we were here. My dad made it through Melody and then through another song. Although he didn’t have much skill, he make up for it in feeling.My 11-year old son Jeff was there. “So what did you think about your grandfather?” I asked Jeff later.“He was great,” Jeff replied. My father may not have reached his top musically, but in his grandson’s eyes, he’s at the top of the mountain. 1. From the first paragraph, we know the writer______.
