I've read this passage several times, but I don't think I'm faking it. First of all, she didn't mean to mention her father's death before and after singing, but was asked that the teachers were definitely not pretending, otherwise they wouldn't be so emotional. Moreover, it is meaningless to fabricate the story of "the death of a loved one". It is not a sensational composition made up during the exam. It will have no influence in public and general occasions, and it will not stand the test of time. I don't think we need to question and slander in ignorance.
