Lời giải:
A. Amel Pineda was born in Sampaloc, Manila, the Philippines in 1967, and he is an inspiring person. He has been passionate about singing since he was five years old and has achieved great success as a professional singer. However, he faced a lot of challenges during his early life.
B. When Arnel was thirteen, his mother died, so his family had a lot of financial problems. Then, Amel became homeless for several years. During that time, he took different low-paying jobs like collecting old bottles and selling newspapers to help him survive. In 1982, at the age of fifteen, he joined a local band as a lead singer, singing pop songs by famous bands. Amel didn’t make much money this way, but he never gave up on his passion.
C. By the late 1990s, he had achieved some success, but it was in the early 2000s that he finally got his big break. In June 2007, Neal Schon, a member of the famous band Journey viewed a video of Arnel online. Schon contacted him and invited him to an audition for the band’s new lead singer position. Six months later, Amel joined Journey and they have had tremendous success since then. The band has released three studio albums and sold millions of records worldwide.
D. Arnel Pineda is a special person because he overcame his difficult beginning. I admire him because he stayed committed to his passion and achieved greatness. Arnel’s success shows that anyone can achieve their dreams if they try hard enough.
