(★★★) Gillian Lynne never did well at school as a child. She couldn’t keep sitting quietly for long. Her mother was worried and took her to a doctor. For twenty minutes, the mother talked about the problems Gillian had at school. Finally, the doctor said to Gillian, “I need to speak to your mother privately (私下), wait here, and we’ll be back soon.” Then the doctor turned on the radio on his desk. When they got out of the room, he said to Gillian’s mother, “Just stand here and watch her.” The minute they left the room, Gillian began to dance to the music. They watched for a few minutes and the doctor said to the mother, “Mrs. Lynne, Gillian isn’t sick. She’s a dancer. Take her to a dance school.” So she did. Gillian’s new dance school was full of people like her. They loved to move to think. Later Gillian went to the Roval Ballet School and became a great dancer.
