  Most of the people born after 1990 are still in school.But Singaporean pop girl group By2 has been working for more than three years.

  Last month, the 19-year-old twin sisters released their fourth album 90’ Now.The songs, according to By2, show “the spirit of the 90’s generation(一代人).”

  Born in 1992, life for By2 is quite different from that of their peers(同龄人).After winning a talent competition in 2007, the girls signed with a recording company and started to sing at 15.

  The sisters had to give up their studies to realize their dream of becoming pop stars.Their success helps them support their family, since their father died of cancer in 2007.Some opportunities only knock once.

  There is much more to be a singer than just singing.They had to leave home and work in Taiwan.They had to deal with different people.They were also faced with many misunderstandings.In fact, the sisters said they had hit a low point(陷入低谷)in life over the past two years.

  “Maybe we were too young to take the sudden changes and challenges,” said By2.“We felt unsafe and we didn’t trust anyone.”

  Fortunately it seems the dark time has gone.

  “Bad things keep coming only if you keep thinking of them.Every young person could face the same problems; only we faced them earlier.” The joyful disco music in the new album tells of their attitude(态度)now, said By2.“The 90’s generation should not be afraid.Life is a long journey.We may seize(抓住)the moment.”

    1970 was World Conservation (保护) Year. The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the
world was in danger. They hoped something could be done.
     Here is one example of the problem. At one time there were 1,300 kinds of plants, trees and flowers
in Holland (荷兰), but now only 866 are left. The others have been destroyed (毁灭) by modern people
and their science. We are polluting earth, air, water and everything around us. We can't live without
these things. If things go on like this, we shall destroy ourselves.
     What will happen in the future? Perhaps it's more important to ask "What must we do?" More and
more young people have known this. Many of them are helping to save our earth. For example, they plant
trees. In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned the banks of 11 kilometres of their
river. Young people may hear about conversation through a song called "No one's going to change our
world". It was made by Cliff Richard and other singers. The money from it will help to conserve tigers,
elephants and pandas on the earth.
