    Cathy wants to learn to play the piano. She asks her father, "Can I learn to play the piano, Daddy?"

    "That sounds good. But how long can you learn?"

    "A month," Cathy says. "After a month, I can play for you. If I don't play well, I won't play it."

    "All right," her father says.

    He soon finds a piano teacher and Cathy starts her lessons. The lessons aren't cheap (便宜的), but her father doesn't say anything.

    After a month, the time comes for Cathy to play for her father. She says to her father, "I want to play for you, Daddy."

    "OK, Cathy," her father says. "You can start."

    She starts to play. She doesn't play well. Her father has a friend with him. And the friend can't stand it.

    When Cathy stops playing, her father says, "Great! Cathy, you can have more lessons."

    Cathy runs out of room. Her father's friend says to him, "I don't think your daughter play well."

    "Well, you're right," her father says. "But she's very happy to learn, right?"
