Unit 23　Conflict(B) Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2017·福建省普通高中毕业班质量检查)After four silent years，the 27-year-old British singer Adele Adkins has finally introduced herself to the world again with Hello，the opening song from her third album 25，which will come out on Nov.20. Although Adele is a very successful singer now，music wasnt always what she saw herself doing．At age 10，when she saw her grandmothers pain over the death of Adeles grandfather，she pictured herself as a heart surgeon. “I wanted to fix peoples hearts，”she told the UK music website i-D，remembering the childhood interest shed had in biology classes until she found out that her real talent was for singing. Adele didnt go to medical school，but many would agree that she still has healing(治愈) powers.“Her songs find the kind of memory every listener holds somewhere in their heart.This kind of feeling is what people have always liked in Adele，”said The Telegraph.“She writes a pop diary，sharing the simple secrets of her heart.” Most successful pop stars make albums at a fast pace，but not Adele.After her second album 21 won the 2012 Grammy Award for Album of the Year，she made it clear with her label that she would spend“four or five years”making her next album.She told Vogue magazine，“I wont come out with new music until its better than 21.” Instead of seeking fame，Adele remained silent and moved to the countryside.In her free time，she loved to watch TV series Teen Mom，American Horror Story，and The Walking Dead. Living life as normally as possible is important to the singers art.“Nobody wants to listen to a record from someone whos not living in the real world，”Adele told i-D.“So I live a low-key life for my fans.” 【语篇解读】　本文主要讲述了英国著名歌手阿黛尔在音乐上成功的秘密。 1．What does the text mainly tell us?
