Think about it!
1. Do you have any dreams or interests What are they
2. What would you like to do but feel afraid to try
My name is Cathy. I love singing opera. Even when I was a little girl,I dreamed of being an opera singer. I often sang with my hair brush as my microphone. My family is poor,and I never had any singing lessons. But I taught myself by listening to the radio and watching TV programs.
Cathy enjoys herself so much when she is singing.
One year, our school organized a talent show. Some students wanted to tell jokes, and others wanted to dance. I wanted to sing, but I wasn't confident. “Maybe I'm not good enough to be a singer, 'I said to myself.
My teacher encouraged me to take part in the show. “Your voice sounds beautiful. Believe in yourself .” I chose my favourite opera song and practiced every day.
The day of the talent show came. I waited and waited. Some students were really good. Their performances were excellent. “Would I sound good?” I felt a little nervous.
Finally, it was my turn. I stood on the big stage. The lights were so bright, and there were so many people in front of me. I felt my heart beating so fast!Then I saw my teacher smiling and my friends waving at me. They were there with me! Slowly I began to relax. The music started and I began to sing.
When my song was over, all of the students clapped loudly. They all loved it!
After the show, my friends came to see me. “Well done, Cathy! You will be a real opera singer someday.”
