75-year-old hip-hop（街舞） grandma Stephanie Walsh has gained worldwide attention with
her intense dance moves and incredible energy. Better known as "Ms. Stephanie" online, Walsh has
been featured on social media accounts with some videos drawing more than II million people to
watch.
Walsh believes the videos gained popularity because she is 75. "It's because I'm a senior, "said
Walsh. "You don't usually see someone my age doing hip-hop and moving like that. "But actually,
it's more than that. Just as her profile claims, Walsh's videos are "inspiring the world to dance like
no one is watching. "
"Dance isn't just your body, it's what you're feeling inside about the dance and it's what comes
out here in your face, " Walsh said. "What I want to put through my movement is how much fun it
is and how much joy it gives you. "
From a young age, Walsh loved to dance but her family didn't have the money for classes.
When she was nearly 30, she got her daughter ballet lessons, which her daughter hated. So, she took
her daughter out and started classes herself right away.
Walsh believes her lifelong passion for dance is what motivates her today. "Everybody has to
have a passion in their life, " she said. "It's like that saying, 'A life without passion is a life half
lived. 'I believe that. "
Walsh dances for fun and fitness, but also for therapy（心理治疗）. She struggled through
countless hardships, and she has more than enough reasons to keep her down. But they don't. She
turns to her faith, her friends and of course, dance, to shine as an inspiration to those around her.
Gilbert, one of Walsh's followers, says she inspires him every day. "She's a beautiful soul who
teaches me that it doesn't matter about your age or your size. As long as you feel good, that's all that
matters, "says Gilbert. "I am truly thankful that Walsh is teaching me at the age of 32 to live my life
full and stop being so scared. "
24. What motivates Walsh to do hip-hop?
A. Its great social benefit. B. Its growing popularity.
C. Her enthusiasm for dance. D. Her hunger for reputation.
25. What contributes to her videos' popularity according to Walsh?
A. Her advanced age. B. Her smooth moves.
C. Her endless energy. D. Her confident claim.
26. What will Walsh's story probably inspire Gilbert to do?
A. Be active in social media. B. Set a good example to others.
C. Take full advantage of his talent. D. Adopt a positive approach to life.
27. Which is a suitable title for the text?
A. Optimistic About Life: The Way to Survive
B. Forever Young in Dance: An Inspiring Figure
C. Embracing Social Media: The Key to Success
D. Dancing with the Young: An Amazing Journey
