The piano examination – 钢琴考试

Hello everybody! I'm a student at No.2 Middle School. My name is Wangxiao. Today I want to tell you how I passed my piano exam.

I started to play piano when I was only 4 years old. At that time, I was very young and eager to play with other children. I didn't want to practise piano everyday, it was boring. But my mother insisted on my doing that. I was very unwilling and I even cried. But I knew I had o do it, because every child should develop his or her special skills. When I was 7 years old. I passed the piano exam band 4. Then I kept on practicing.

When I was 12 years old, my teacher asked me to take the piano exam band 10. I felt nervous and had little confidence. But I persuaded myself to try.

During that time, I had to play the same piece of music again and again. I practised for up to 6 hours each day. While the other children played outside, I was playing piano in my room. It was a hot summer, I didn't know how much I endured.

But all my efforts paid off. On July 31st 2000, I took the piano exam band 10 and I passed with ease.

Keep in mind the expression “No pain, no gain!”.

We will eventually achieved success if we are willing to pay our due efforts. Since the exam, I have done my best to excel in everything I do. I have learned quite a lot from all the struggles.
