4.What can we learn from Candy
She dealt with her shyness by taking up singing.
She loves her change from a shy girl to a famous singer, but she doesn’t like the loss of normal life.
No, because in the third paragraph she says, “you can never imagine how difficult the road to success is.” “Many times I thought about giving up, but I fought on.” You really require a lot of talent and hard work to succeed. Only a very small number of people make it to the top.”
We should make positive changes to improve ourselves better.
We should be hard-working to succeed.
To achieve our dreams, don’t give up, but fight on.
