chou told teens. “so i asked myself, why not start all over again?” thats how we luckily regained this music genius, who has since then composed lots of hits for the pop music charts (排行榜). his emotional voice is enthralling (迷人的). sometimes we need to get close to nature to look deeply into our souls and see what we genuinely (真正地) want to follow, he said. following the success of turkey in blue, he has recently released his latest work lovers genesis. in this album he explores human relationships in the internet age. this time, he takes the role of a calm observer rather than a struggling insider. technology itself is a good thing, but it depends on how youre going to use it, is chous advice to teenagers. chou often gets his music ideas from trips. he has traveled to many

a. introducing a new way of life. b. sharing in the financial crisis. c. how to reduce the living expense. d. how to handle the financial crisis.53. why do people in modern times give up the sharing mind-set?
