I showed great interests in the music then, for they were pleasing to ears and easy to sing. My uncle told me they were called pop songs. When I grew up, my music teacher found that I had a good voice, so she sent me to the Childrens Palace to study vocal music. From then on, I began my vocal music training. And then I knew there were several kinds of songs, like folk songs, pop songs and so on. What I had learned most was the songs for children. They were all simple ones but our teacher trained us very strictly. We practiced how to produce sound and how to make our expression more natural and more pleasing. Those simple training didnt reduce my interest in singing at all and I won awards one after another in several kinds of petition. Actually I began to make up a dream of being a famous singer in the future. ( ) 41. Whats the writers hobby? A. Its raising pets,. B. Its building model ships. C. Its weaving baskets. D. Its singing.
