One night in November，Itzhak Perlman gave a concert in a theatre，if you have ever been to a Perlman concert，you know that becoming a violinist is not a small （1）　　for him，he had to walk（2）　　 the help of two walking sticks as a result of the disease he caught as a child．

People sat （3）　　while he made his way to his chair and began his play．But this time，something went （4）　　．Just as he finished the first few parts of the music，one of the strings（弦） on his violin （5）　　．We thought that he would have to stop the concert．But he didn't （6）　　，he waited a moment，closed his eyes and then （7）　　the conductor（指挥） to begin again．The orchestra （管弦乐队）began and he played with such strong feeling and purity as they had （8）　　heard before．

Of course，everyone knows that it is （9）　　for a violinist to play a pleasant work with just three stings．I know that，and you know that，（10）　　that night Itzhak Perlman didn't want to accept that．

When he finished，there was a terrible （11）　　in the room，And then people rose and （12）　　from every corner of the theatre．

Perlman was excited．He smiled and said，"You know，sometimes it is the artist's task to （13）　　how much music you can still make with what you have left．"

So，suppose our task in this fast﹣changing world is to make （14）　　，at first we should try our best with all that we have．And then，（15）　　it is no longer possible，try to play it with what we have left．
