And when teachers try to【C3】______these children they【C4】______sing, the kids just don’t see the point. Why should they struggle to perform a【C5】______version that only their mothers could possibly love? It’s so much easier to buy a CD and hear someone do it really well! Their logic is hard to argue【C6】______--and it’s a direct result of our society’s【C7】______with competence. Pleasure is no longer the aim of our【C8】______activities; in fact no one even sees any thing pleasant【C9】______doing something less than perfectly well. This is crazy. And it’s【C10】______a terrible toll. Not only【C11】______depriving ourselves of creative satisfaction and【C12】______our children from finding joy in【C13】______they can do themselves--we’re also destroying our artists. In a world【C14】______we expect all our art to be supplied【C15】______highly competent professionals, the pressure on the professionals becomes too great to bear.【C16】______the number of musicians and artists who suffer from drug addiction, alcoholism, or even commit suicide because of the pressure of keeping【C17】______our demands for more and better music, art, books and movies to enjoy in our【C18】______time. We are【C19】______our artists with our refusal to entertain【C20】______ourselves in our own incompetent ways.
