In 1995, Susan Boyle went to Glasgow to audition(試鏡)for My Kind of People, a televised talent show popular in the UK. She was immediately rejected. She was nervous during the audition, and felt she didn’t perform well, but her brother said that she was rejected because of her plain looks. Susan was not discouraged and continued to sing at church and at the karaoke nights in a local pub.
Susan suffered a personal loss in 1997, when her father passed away. After his death, Susan put her big dreams on hold to care for her sick mother, Bridget Boyle. The mother and daughter often talked of Susan’s possible fame. Bridget Boyle encouraged her daughter to take part in singing competitions. “She was the one who said I should enter Britain’s Got Talent. We used to watch it together,” Susan later told reporters. “She thought I would win.”
In 1999, Susan used all of her savings to pay for a professional demo(樣本唱片)tape, which she sent to record companies. In 2002, Susan began taking singing lessons from voice coach Fred O’Neil.
In 2007, her mother passed away at the age of 91. A neighbor reported that when Bridget Boyle died, her daughter “wouldn’t come out for three or four days or answer the door or phone”. She lived alone with her cat, Pebbles. For over a year, she refused to sing. But in August of 2008, O’Neil urged her to try out for Britain’s Got Talent. Convinced that the performance would be an honor to her mother, Susan auditioned in Glasgow, Scotland. She sang I Dreamed A Dream, a hit song from the musical Les Miserables(《悲慘世界》), in the first round of the show, which was aired on April 11, 2009.
The 47-year-old Scottish woman's plain looks provided a sharp contrast(對比)to her powerfully beautiful voice. The performance astonished the audience and the judges. Online videos of her performance totaled over 40 million views within a week. Although she failed to win the final of Britain’s Got Talent, Susan Boyle became globally popular. Her first album I Dreamed A Dream has sold over five million copies.
【小題1】Bridget Boyle’s attitude towards her daughter’s musical talent can be described as ___.

A.criticalB.doubtfulC.indifferentD.confident
【小題2】 From Paragraph 4, we can learn that Susan _____.
A.was slightly discouraged by her voice coacB.entered Britain’s Got Talent to prove her ability
C.decided to give up her singing careerD.was deeply affected by her mother’s death
【小題3】 Which of the following is TRUE about Susan Boyle?
A.Her international fame grew rapidly in 2008.B.Her audition for My Kind of People failed.
C.She has never stopped singing since 1995.D.She was the winner of Britain’s Got Talent.
【小題4】 We can infer from the passage that ______.
A.Susan Boyle was convinced by her brother that her plain looks were disadvantageous to her success
B.It was at the age of forty that Susan Boyle established a student-teacher relationship with O’Neil.
C.Susan Boyle was so struck by her father’s death that she shut herself out from the neighborhood.
D.The online views of Les Miserables numbered over 40 million within a week in 2009.
【小題5】In writing this passage, the author mainly intends to ______.
A.tell us how Susan’s dream come trueB.let us know more about Susan’s personal life
C.show how Susan was influenced by her familyD.explain how to enter and win a talent show
