(2023·湖北省高一阶段练习)It is said that the best time of playing the piano is when he or she is a kid. But when Max came to his first piano lesson in his mother's car, he was already 11 years old. I preferred students begin at an earlier age, but due to his insistence (坚持), I took him as a student. As much as Max tried, he lacked the sense of tone and basic rhythm. At the end of each lesson, he'd say, “My mom's going to hear me play someday.” But it seemed hopeless. I only knew his mother from a distance as she waited in her aged car, but never stepped in.

After 2 months, one day Max didn't come to our lessons any more. I thought about calling him but assumed, because of his lack of ability, that he had decided to quit. I also was glad that he stopped coming—he was a bad advertisement for my teaching!
Later, in order to celebrate the New Year, I mailed to the students' homes a letter on the upcoming concert. Surprisingly, Max received and asked me if he could be in the concert. I told him that the concert was not for dropouts (辍学者), but for current pupils. He said that his mom had been sick and unable to take him to piano lessons but he was still practicing. I didn't know what led me to agree eventually.

At the concert night, the hall was packed with parents and friends. I put up Max last in the program. I thought that any damage he would do would come at the end of the program and the negative effect would reduce to the least.
Surprisingly, the concert went off successfully. Then Max came up on stage. His clothes were wrinkled and his hair looked messy. “Why didn't his mother at least make him comb his hair for this special night?” I thought.
