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. 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!
