  The opera house in Santa Fe,New Mexico,is one of themost beautiful in the United States.It is small and open,withone roof over the stage where singers perform and another roof over part of the andience.This opera house in the mountain is one of the best in the country,which may seem surprising because performances are only given during seven weeks inthe summer,and because Santa Fe is a very small city.

  One reason why the Santa Fe Opera is so good is that itattracts many excellent young singers.They all hope to singin famous opera houses like Metropolitan in New York someday,and they work hard to become well known during the summer.The musicians and directors are experts who comefrom the best orchestras(管弦乐队)and operas in the country during their vacations.They enjoy working there because they like to live in Santa Fe,which is near both the mountains andthe desert.It is very beautiful there in the summer.

  The state government of New Mexico advertises the Santa Fe opera in newspapers all over the country,and a great many tourists come to New Mexico because of the opera.Still,most of the audience does come from Santa Fe and other nearby cities,and all the seats in the theater are sold for every show.

  There is only one thing that some people do not like about the Santa Fe Opera,and that is the cold weather.Because the theater is open,performances cannot start before it gets dark at nine o'clock in the evening,and then the mountain air becomes very cool.Sometimes people complain about the cold air,but because the operas are good,these people come back again-wearing warm coats.

  Finally, Michael's little sister was born.But she was in serious condition.With sirens(警报)howling in the night, the ambulance rushed the baby to St.Mary's Hospital.The days inched by.The little girl became worse.The pediatric(儿科的)specialist told the parents to prepare for the worst.

  Michael kept begging about singing to his sister, but kids are not allowed in pediatric department at St.Mary's Hospital.Karen made up her mind to take Michael to see his sister.She dressed him in an oversized suit and marched him into the hospital.He looked like a walking laundry basket, but the head nurse recognized him as a child and shouted,“Get that kid out of here now!”Karen rose up strong, and the usually mild-mannered lady glared steel-eyed into the head nurse's face.“He is not leaving until he sings to his sister!”

  Karen towed Michael to his sister's bedside.He gazed at the tiny baby losing the battle to live.And he began to sing.In the pure-hearted voice of a 3-year-old, Michael sang,“You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.You make me happy when skies are grey.”Instantly the baby girl responded.Her pulse rate became calm and steady.Her strained breathing became smoother.

  “Keep on singing, Michael.”“The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping, I dreamed I help you in my arms…”Michael's little sister relaxed as healing rest seemed to sweep over her.“Keep on singin, Michael.”Tears conquered the face of the nurse.“You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.Please don't take my sunshine away.”
