Are you good at singing or dancing?Can you ride a unicycle(独轮车),drink a glass of milk in ten seconds,or recite poems from memory in a short time?And it's the best time for you to show it at the school talent show!
Middle school talent shows in the US happen every year. Whatever you're good at,you have five minutes to show yourself to the world. The school talent show usually happens at the beginning of every year. The shy boy who spends his evenings practicing guitar will surprise his classmates with beautiful music. The sporty girl from the soccer team will surprise everyone with her sweet singing voice. Everyone has a chance to shine.
Almost anyone can do almost anything in a talent show. As long as your act isn't rude or illegal (不合法的),you can show yourself freely. On the day of the show,all the students sit in the school gym and ready to cheer for their classmates.
Many of today's stars started their careers(职业) in school talent shows—Lady Gaga,Taylor Swift and Kate Perry all showed their skills early in life. Though you're not Justin Bieber,you can become a star in your own right at your middle school talent show.
