文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了9岁的Michelle Rasul是世界上最顶尖的DJ之一。她年纪虽小,但成就显著,小小年纪就拿下DJ国际锦标赛前14名。她是一个极具天赋的小孩。
Michelle Rasul, aged 9, is one of the world’s top DJs—people who play recorded music on the radio or at celebrations or parties. Rasul even competed in this year’s international championship and placed 14th out of 85 DJ stars from around the world.
At her home in Dubai, the rising star from Azerbaijan described how she got her start. “I looked at my dad while he was practicing DJ-ing, ‘Wow, is he doing magic or something? He’s a real magician(魔术师).’” Michelle said recently. She added, “When I turned 5 on my birthday, I told him, ‘Dad, I want to be a world-famous DJ. I’m going to start practicing.’”
Rasul is the youngest-ever person in the DMC World DJ Championship. She placed 14th out of 85 DJ stars from around the world. Although she did not go to the next round this time, she is determined to beat her father, Vagif “DJ Shock” Rasulov, in next year’s competition. Rasulov came in 9th place this year and taught Rasul how to DJ.
Sadia Rasulova, a former violinist, is Rasul’s mother. “She just catches things so fast,” she said. “I realized that she’s a star, and that she’s really talented(有天赋的). When children of her age were listening to children’s music, she listened to rap artists like Tupac Shakur, Chuck D, Jay-Z, the Notorious B. I. G. and Michael Jackson, who remains her favorite.”
Her parents started putting video of her DJ-ing online, and Rasul’s popularity grew. Her Instagram page has around 110,000 followers. Online messages from DJs aged 6 to 65 came in from around the world.
While the rest of the world pay attention to her achievements(成就)as a DJ star, Rasul is busy attending online school, reading and hanging out with friends and dogs at her neighborhood park. But her heart is always in turntables. “I can’t imagine my life without music,”she said.
