Alfred: This party is such a great idea!
Gina: I agree. It’s been there three years since we last saw our primary school classmates.
Alfred: It’s interesting to see how people have changed.
Gina: Billy has changed so much! He used to be so shy and quiet. Alfred: Yeah, his face always turned red when he talked to girls! Gina: I used to see him reading in the library every day.
Alfred: That’s because he was a really good student. He studied hard and got good scores on his exams.
Gina: Did he use to wear glasses?
Alfred: Yes, and he used to be thin, too. But look how big and strong he is now! Gina: He’s so popular now. Look at all the girls around him!
Section A-3a(p27)
From Shy Girl to Pop Star
For this month’s Young World magazine, I interviewed 19-year-old Asian pop star
Candy Wang. Candy told me that she used to be really shy and took up singing to
deal with her shyness. As she got better, she dared to sing in front of her class, and
then for the whole school. Now she’s not shy anymore and loves singing in front of crowds.
I asked Candy how life was different after she became famous. She explained that
there are many good things, like being able to travel and meet new people all the
time. “I didn’t use to be popular in school, but now I get tons of attention
everywhere I go.” However, too much attention can also be a bad thing. “I always
have to worry about how I appear to others, and I have to be very careful about
what I say or do. And I don’t have much private time anymore. Hanging out with
friends is almost impossible for me now because there are always guards around me.”
What does Candy have to say to all those young people who want to become
famous? “Well,” she begins slowly, “you have to be prepared to give up your
normal life. You can never imagine how difficult the road to success is.” Many
times I thought about giving up, but I fought on. Your really require a lot of talent
and hard work to succeed. Only a very small number of people make it to the top.
