Dorothy Brown was very happy as she sat in the theatre listening to the music．Today her little daughter Lauren was giving her   36   concert．She had been waiting for this   37   for years and years．“Now it is here at last,” she thought．“How beautiful her   38   is.”
The song made her   39   to the days when she was Lauren’s   40  ．As a young   41  , Dorothy wanted to be a concert singer．She studied   42   in France, Italy and in the United States．“You can become a fine   43   in the future,” her teachers told her．“But you must be   44   to study hard and work for many years．There will be   45   time for anything but music in your life.”
Dorothy was   46   at that time and she was   47   that music was all she wanted or needed to   48   her life．For almost a year Dorothy   49   of nothing else．Then she   50   David, a young engineer travelling Europe．They soon fell in   51  ．David asked her to be his  52 ．Dorothy also wanted to marry David．But she loved   53  , too．She didn’t know what to do．David was against her being a singer．He said, “If you want to be a singer, you must forget about getting married．You can’t   54   do both.” Thus her days were gone and would never return.
Now Lauren became a singer instead of her, which was her   55  .
