19、This is a true story．It happened a few years ago in the Paris Opera House．A famous singer had agreed to perform in the Paris Opera House．The singer was so popular that all the tickets were sold out．At that night the Paris Opera House was full of people．Then the manager（经理）appeared on the stage and said．“Ladies and gentlemen，thank you for your coming．I’m sorry to tell you that the famous singer is ill and he can’t perform tonight，but luckily we have found another singer．He will perform for you．I hope you will have a good time。”This let the people down and the house became full of noise．They even didn’t hear the signer’s name．The excited people turned frustrated．

The singer did his best to perform for the people．However，when he finished，no one applauded（鼓掌）．Just at that time．from the comer，a little boy stood up and shouted．“Daddy，I think you are wonderful”，Then he started to applaud and the others joined in．

In our life we all need such words from others，“I think you are wonderful!”
