As a student in America,I often came across difficult times that made it harder for me to move on.Fortunately,I met a special angel—Dai Mom Mom.

In my twenties,I went to study at TWU in America.Because of limited financial support from my parents,I worked part-time on campus to pay my bills.In addition,I did house cleaning for a family.Because of an imbalanced diet,I would easily feel weak.When Dai Mom Mom realized that,she invited me to her home for dinner every weekend.Besides,whenever it was time to return home,she would prepare me with some homemade dessert or food. Her kind actions were like the seeds of love planted in my heart.

One evening,when I walked out of the library,I started to feel dizzy（頭暈）,and my hands were shaking. Searching my pockets,I only found a few dollars left.Without a second thought,I headed for Dai Mom Mom's home. On arrival,she immediately noticed my fatigue.She seated me at the table and before long,a plate of food was set before me."Don't make yourself work so hard,"she said with a nice smile.I suddenly felt so warm that tears rolled down.

The meal was just like a Christmas gift from Heaven.I have always remembered it as the most delicious dinner I have ever had.Not only did the food satisfy my physical hunger,but it also deeply filled my spirit with genuine love. Dai Mom Mom was an angel.Because of her,I have now become a person who can pass her love along to others in need.

How to survive and thrive

Here are some tips to help you learn not only to survive, but to thrive(有成) and grow in a chaotic world.

Try to build on strengths rather than focus on weaknesses.

Realize that few mistakes are disastrous.

Did you fail a course? 2.Most of us can’t avoid an occasional failure, but we can learn bounce-back attitudes through failures.

3.

Cecelia, a shy twelve-year-old, became livelier when she won the lead in a school play. “We want you to improve your grades, not spend time on plays!” said her worried mother. 4.And she made new friends with the “good kids” who were also achievers. Most importantly, no matter what happens, Cecelia can return to that feeling of success whenever she gets discouraged.

Getting into a top university—or any university – will not guarantee success.

I’ve met high school drop-outs who became very successful. 5. Career-changers who face the future with an attitude of “I can handle anything” are the ones who win today. While in difficulties, they keep up their spirits till they figure out what to do next.

B. Face rejection from a first-class college?

C. Life is hard at the moment, but we’re surviving.

D. Try to experience success in any area of your life.

After four silent years, British singer Adele Adkins finally introduced herself to the world again with Hello, the opening song from her third album 25, which came out on Nov. 20, 2015.

Although Adele is a very successful singer now, music wasn’t always what she saw herself doing. At age 10, when she saw her grandmother’s pain over the death of Adele’s grandfather, she pictured herself as a heart surgeon.

“I wanted to fix people’s hearts,” she told the UK music website i-D, remembering the childhood interest she’d had in biology classes until she found out that her real talent was for singing.

“Adele didn’t go to medical school, but many would agree that she still has healing (治愈)powers. Her songs find the kind of memory every listener holds somewhere in their heart. This kind of feeling is what people have always liked in Adele,” said The Telegraph. “She writes a pop diary, sharing the simple secrets of her heart.”

Most successful pop stars make albums at a fast pace, but not Adele. After her second album 21 won the 2012 Grammy Award for Album of the Year, she made it clear with her label that she would spend “four or five years” making her next album. She told magazine. “I won’t come out with new music until it’s better than 21.”

Instead of seeking fame, Adele remained silent and moved to the countryside. In her free time, she loved to watch TV series Teen Mom, American Horror Story, and The Walking Dead.

Living life as normally as possible is important to the singer’s art. “Nobody wants to listen to a record from someone who’ s not living in the real world,” Adele told i-D.“So I live a low-key life for my fans.”

1.What does die text mainly tell us?

A. The popularity of Adele’s album 25

B. The healing powers of Adele’s music

C. The secrets of Adele’s success in music

D. TV reason Adele’s becoming a singer

2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. Adele wasn’t interested in music

B. Adele wasn’t good at music at first

C. Music wasn’t very important in Adele’s life

D. Music wasn’t all Adele wanted to be devoted to

3.Why doesn’t Adele want to make albums at a fast pace?

A. To live a low-key life

B. To win the Grammy Award

C. To guarantee the quality of her music

D. To share the secrets of her heart as a musician

4.What can we know about Adele?

A. Her album Hello will come out on Nov. 20

B. She has kept a diary since childhood

C. She moved to the countryside before 2012

D. Her works are based on real life
