试题分析：这篇短文主要讲述的是莎拉 巴莱勒思是一位美国的音乐家、词曲创作人和钢琴家。她单单在美国就已经销售了一百多万张光盘。她的曲子是受到了她有困难的朋友的启发而创作，她希望她的朋友能够敢于说出他所想的东西。文章最后呼吁读者都来听一听这首曲子。

【1】根据语境，“The-33-year-old singer”指的是“这位33岁的歌手”，“a songwriter and pianist.”指的是词曲创作人和钢琴家。故应译为：这个33岁的歌手也是一个词曲创作人和钢琴家。

【2】根据语境，这里“over”指的是“多于”，“in the US alone”指的是“单单在美国”。故应译为：莎拉巴勒莱思单单在美国就卖出了100多万张光盘。

【3】根据语境，这里“brave and say”指的是“敢于说出”，“what he wanted. ”指的是“他想要什么”。故译为：她希望她的朋友能勇敢地说出他想要什么。
