They put her to the blush. They also make her angry. "Who cares about who's to blame? The point is somebody's hurting, they need help.
Most contemporaries (đương thời) who wrote about Mammoth Cave described Bishop as well. JW Spaulding’s 1853 article in The Northern Inquirer calls Bishop as “the most intelligent Negro … that I met with in all my travels” who “can converse on geology (khoa địa chất) and mineralogy (khoáng vật học) with much fluency, and would put to the blush many who have seen much of Academic halls.” Bishop showed Spaulding gypsum-crystal “stars” that looked like the night sky and sang a song on the Echo River, his “clear, sonorous (kêu, vang) voice” filling the cave. “There are two or three guides, who are procured at the hotel,” Spaulding writes. “If possible, get Stephen.”
But having a great voice is not the most important prerequisite (điều cần trước hết, điều kiện tiên quyết) for singing. Don’t put her to the blush or self-conscious about something that brings her so much joy. Focus on teaching her that there’s a time and a place for singing, and that she should feel free to take as much joy in singing as she possibly can. Your daughter is not on the verge of (trên bờ vực, có nguy cơ) auditioning for a show choir. And if that day ever comes, and she experiences disappointment, that’s OK. Kids have to experience disappointment. Don’t pre-emptively seek it out because you can’t handle the idea of her not getting something she may or may not want at some point in the future.
