Tina is my sister,she used to be fat and others often laughed at her,so she became very shy
She was scared to say hello to strangers.She was afraid to ask simple questions and speak loud in
front of others.It seemed that she felt afraid of everything in her life.She used to believe that she
would be like this all her life

you will have a chance to make a change.But if you never try,your life is only going to get worse.
"Tina was deeply touched.She thought,"Why not have a try?After all,I had nothing to lose."
The first thing Tina did was to lose weight.She had a strict diet and did exercise every day
After 6 months,she lost 90 pounds.This taught her that she could change herself.

the things on the list one by one.When working on them,she became more and more confident.

anything in the world I'd be really good."she said."OK.Tina.I once dreamed to be a reporter.
We'd better find out if you've got any-talent then,and check with our Mum and Dad first to make
sure they don't mind their daughter taking singing classes."
"No problem there.Next evening,Dad was driving Tina to her first singing lesson.The
teacher liked Tina very much.She said that Tina was talented and her voice was good.After that.
Tina did some voice exercises.She practised day after day.
