◆活学活用
阅读下列短文，按要求完成读写任务。?
On Thursday September 6,2007,the world lost an amazing musician and person.The great tenor Luciano Pavarotti lost the battle with cancer and died at 5 am in Italy.This great loss cannot go unnoticed and shouldn?t.Pavarotti was an incredible individual and he tried and succeeded in making a difference in the world.Instead of looking at his death with sorrow,we should look at his death as an inspiration.?
Reviewing all of the contributions this man made with his life,we should try to contribute something great to the world we live in.Each person has a talent,and some,like Pavarotti,use their talents to create a better place for everyone.Many times,some young people feel as though they are lost,asking the same questions and getting no answers:What is my purpose in life？What am I meant to do？Of course we should take time to respectfully think about Pavarotti,but we shouldn,t dwell on sorrow because his death is something we can,t change.What we all can do to honour this great man is to commit to making a difference and contributing something to the world.?
Even though not everyone is a musician,each person can learn something from Pavarotti,s life.The first lesson is that you do not have to become what you originally planned to be.Pavarotti was one of the greatest tenors of all time,but he did not start that way.Many people feel they are stuck on the path they,ve chosen.This is not the case!Pavarotti taught elementary school for two years and was an insurance salesman while pursuing his interest.For six years,Pavarotti sang for nothing more than just a hobby until he won an international prize.Just four years later in New York,he made 379 performances and retired from stage opera in 2004,but continued to tour until his cancer diagnosis in 2006.?
