I wish I had this passage as my exam question in secondary school

His songs are a bit sad, but his boy-like smile can quickly warm you up! And people love A-do for both reasons.

He sings for only two years, but he's already a bit star in Asia's pop world. The Singaporean(新加坡)singer has already (已经) made three albums (专辑).Together they have sold more than five million copies across Asia.
Last Friday, China's Music Radio named "the Asian King of Pop."A-do said he didn't expect the award (
奖励)."It's great for me. It makes me want to work even harder."

His new album "Hello" came out in December. He sings with the same rough (
粗糙的) voice, and he puts in some rock music. In the "Hello" music video, Vicky Zhao (赵薇) is with A-do outside on a cold day in Northern China.
A-do was a huose builder before he became singer. Every day after work, he would sing by himself. Other workers heard him and told him he should be in a contest (
比赛).
A-do doesn't change much. He still gers nervous in front of cameras (
镜头).Peng Yiting a Junior at Beijing's No 80 Middle School, says, "He's real and doesn't show off(炫耀).He's an everyday hero and shows anyone can do well if they work hard."

1 How are A-do's songs, according to the text?
