二、閱讀理解
Betty lived in a small town filled with beautiful flowers. Betty just stood with few words in public. She was often considered as a quiet girl in the community. She felt like a wallflower and wondered if she would go unnoticed all the time.
However， her closest friend， Fiona， was completely different. Fiona loved to communicate with others and she encouraged Betty to change. She told Betty that life wasn’t always as beautiful as roses and that everyone was able to make it full of roses.
With Fiona’s encouragement， Betty began to change. Instead of being a wallflower， she started attending a community theatre class and took an active part in acting. Her gift for acting began to shine， but new challenges soon arose. One of Betty’s classmates became a thorn in her side. The classmate was not satisfied with her achievements， but Betty continued to deal with the situation. She managed to show herself and became friends with the classmate. All the changes made her feel fresh every day.
Betty’s hard work paid off when the town’s famous director， Mr Johnson， watched one of her plays. He liked her acting so much that he offered her the lead role in his new play.
Finally， Betty became a confident girl. Her change was like a beautiful rose in full flower. She encountered many difficulties which taught her that there’s no rose without a thorn. But those thorns helped her develop her abilities. Betty proved that personal changes were possible for anyone.
