This tiny house was shared by 12 people. Although it was crowded, it helped to develop his unique imagination.

With a lively imagination, he loved to tell stories he had read to anyone who would listen. Read the biography. /ˈdenmɑːk/ n. 丹麦（北欧国家， 首都哥本哈根） /ˈtaɪni/ adj. 极小的、微量的 From an ugly duckling to a swan D.

But such experiences gave birth to fairy tales such as The Ugly Duckling and The Little Mermaid. Much like the ugly duckling, Andersen only in his late 60s became the “swan” — a “national treasure” of Denmark. Read the biography.

What helped Andersen get through the difficulties of his teenage years? His determination, optimistic attitude towards life and love for writing helped Andersen get through his hard teenage life. Further thinking Answer the questions. 2. What’s your understanding of the title? The two opposite expressions “ugly duckling” and “swan” show the lows and highs of Andersen’s life. They also show that his path to success was a challenging one. Personal touch What quality do you admire most about Andersen? The quality I admire most about Andersen is his unwavering resilience and optimism in the face of hardship. Andersen was born into poverty and faced countless setbacks throughout his life, such as being rejected, struggling with loneliness, and even being laughed at for his appearance. However, he never gave up on his dreams or let the difficulties make him bitter. Instead, he turned his pain into beautiful stories that spread hope and kindness. For example, his own life is like the story of "The Ugly Duckling" — he grew from a "duckling" looked down upon into a "swan" admired by the world. This spirit of never giving up and always choosing to see the light, even in the darkest times, is truly inspiring. It shows us that no matter how tough life gets, we can still hold onto our dreams and keep a warm heart.
