Angela Chang (張韶涵) didn't know it would be so hard to turn singing into a career (職業(yè)) . She went to many different record companies. But she was always turned down for looking too young and small.
"I'd never had such difficulties before," Chang said. But Chang's talent was finally accepted in 2002. When she got a piece of work,she cried.
She soon became a star. Her first album Over the Rainbow sold very well. She won many awards.
"You wouldn't believe such a beautiful voice could come from such a small body," said one musician after hearing Chang sing. "She has a special voice. You can't forget it."
But the 25-year-old girl has other talents too. Chang is also an actress. She has played a role in the popular TV plays My MVP Valentine and At Dolphin Bay. Many people remember her commongirl parts in the plays. But acting is difficult. Chang once acted so badly that she was nearly fired (解雇) .Another time it took her 27 tries to get a scene (—場(chǎng)戲) right.
"I cried when I got back home," Chang said. "But I knew that I wouldn't always fail. You only fail when you give up."
Now with four albums behind her―Over the Rainbow,Aurora,Pandora,Flower in the Wonderland,it's clear that Chang and music were made for each other. As she sings in one song, "I have a pair of invisible wings (隱形的翅膀) .They fly me to the sky and give me hope."

A wise man was visiting a village with his students. He found a group of family members shouting in anger at each other. He turned to his students and asked, "Why do people shout in anger at each other?"
His students thought for a while,and one of them said, "Because when we lose our calm,we shout."
"But why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You may just tell him what you have to say in a soft manner as well," said the wise man.
Students gave some other answers but none was any good.
"When two people are angry with each other,their hearts become distant," the wise man explained. "To cover that distance they must shout to be heard by each other. The angrier they are,the louder they will have to shout at each other and cover that great distance."
The wise man then gave an example, "What will happen when two people fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk softly because their hearts are very close. When they love each other even more,what will happen? They don't need to talk. They only look at each other and that's all. That is how close two people are when they love each other."
He looked at his students and said, "So when you argue,do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance you from others. Otherwise,there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return."

Happiness is important for everyone. Most people want to be happy,but few know how to find happiness. Money and success don't bring lasting happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. In other words,we make our own happiness.
Some people believe that if they are wealthy,they will be able to do anything they want,which means happiness.

You should enjoy life's simple pleasures,such as reading a good book,listening to your favorite music,or spending time with close friends. People who have close friends usually enjoy happier and healthier lives.
The second secret of happiness is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget their problems and only think about the activities.
Finally,many people find happiness in helping others. According to studies,people feel good when they volunteer their time to do many meaningful things for other people.
