3a
Read the story from a teen magazine and put the events in order.
My Music Story
The present that changed my life was the guitar my father bought me for my eighth birthday. I spent the next several months learning to play the guitar. I often sat next tot my father while he showed me how to play a song. Then I went to my room and practised until my fingers hurt, I had a lot of trouble at first. But gradually, I became good at playing the guitar.
Some of my schoolmates invited me to join their band. At first, I was too shy to play in front of people. Then I realized that I enjoyed music more when I shared it with others. We had great fun playing music, and I made good friends with those in the band. Nowadays, our band is getting more and more popular. We often take part in performances inside and outside our school.

Write your music story for the magazine.
My Music Story
My music story began when I was in primary school. The person who influenced me most was my grandfather. He was a folk musician who could play the erhu beautifully. I still remember the first time I heard him play — the music was so touching that it brought tears to my eyes.
I asked him to teach me. At first, I could hardly make a single note sound good. But my grandfather never got angry. He always said, “Play with your heart, not just your fingers.” After months of practice, I could finally play a complete piece. The moment I finished, my grandfather gave me a big hug.
Now, whenever I play the erhu, I feel like I am talking to my grandfather, even though he passed away two years ago. Music is not just a hobby for me — it is a bridge between my heart and his.
