Ouch! That's Python 2 treating \U as the start of a Unicode escape, even
though it's in a raw string. That doesn't happen in Python 3 (which is
what I use nowadays).
Fortunately, Windows will accept / instead of \ in paths, which also
means that you don't have to make it a raw string:
file = u"C:/Users/Furqan/Desktop/查找問題Reference/1.wav"
