5．It was a rainy morning and the children，mainly boys with various learning difficulties，refused to settle for the start of the lesson．As an inexperienced teacher，I tried every means to get them to be （36）quiet，but in vain．my panic was rising and I could feel my heart beating wildly．This was the （37）end of my job as a music teacher，I thought--teaching was not for me．Then I had an idea．Hoping that no one would notice that I was（38）shaking inside，I threw my voice as far as it would reach："Put your heads on the desks and close your（39）eyes!We are going on a journey．"（40）

At this point，when all the children were willing to share their experiences，I began to learn how to （45）teach．The music allow me to learn that teaching is about sharing and respect，tears and smiles，the knowing and the（46）unknown and most of all，an understanding of each other．This was the power that （47）music in the classroom could have．
