20、 she was spotted by Lloyd Webber. She became his leading lady in Song and Dance, Requiem and Phantom of the Opera. They married in 1984. Brightman says she felt hostility(敌意 ) “from the beginning. I havent tried to understand it. Ive done very well everywhere else, especially the US, where I now liv

28、s questions about the plan for all children to be able to read by the age of 6. In many countries formal teaching does not start until children are 6 or 7 and have improved their social and manual skills.
