Yellow River Fisherman
This is Hong Tao’s latest movie. I like Hong Tao.
He’s made some great movies over the years.
Unfortunately, this is his worst movie. If you’re looking
for entertainment, stay at home and watch TV.
Yellow River Fisherman is too long, and it’s really
boring. It does have a few good features, though.
I thought the fisherman’s wife was really funny. 评论

Amy Kim, Photography
Be sure to see this exhibition at the Lido Gallery. Amy Kim is one of the best known Chinese photographers in the world today, and some of her best loved photos are on display in this exhibition. She really has something for everyone. There are many great photos of people and of the countryside. The few city photographs are less successful. I see the same things every day and they don’t interest me as much. But this is a great show from a world class photographer. Whatever you do, don’t miss this exhibition.

Wild and Windy
Over the years, we’ve seen musical groups with pretty strange names come and go. Few have stranger names than this band. As the name suggests, the band has lots of energy. And they play the kind of music that I love to hear. Every song is really loud and often you can’t understand the words, but this is okay because the lyrics aren’t very good. However, these are musicians who make us happy even on a Monday morning!

Dear pan pal,
I’m having a great time in Hong Kong,although I have to be honest and say that I prefer Shanghai. Still,it’s a great place to visit and I am lucky to be here for my six-month English course. Some other students are learning French . I might like to learn some too. What languages would you like to learn?There’s just so much to see and do here. Last night I went to a Chinese music concert. Most of my friends like loud music so the concert suited me just fine. What kinds of music do you like?

Before the concert we went for Italian food. Do you like it? There are lots of different kinds of food here. I don’t know what to try next. What kinds of food do you prefer? My host family is taking me to an Indian film festival next weekend. I’m not sure what to expect because I’ve never seen an Indian film. Have you? Some people say they’re boring,but others say they are great. What kinds of films do you prefer? Yours, Lingling

20. I only eat food that tastes good.

21. How important is keeping healthy(保持健康) to you
How important is keeping healthy(保持健康) to you? A group of young people got together to discuss this question（讨论问题）. Here’s part of their discussion.
Peter: I’d like to stay healthy, but to be honest（坦白地说）, I only eat food that tastes good. And if food tastes good, it’s usually bad for you, isn’t it? Cola tastes better than water, for example.

22. Tony: Well, food that is bad for you can taste good
Tony: Well, food that is bad for you can taste good! But I prefer not to eat too much food that is fried, like, er, French fries. Do you eat fast food, Laura?
Laura: Do I eat fast food? Never! I love to eat food that is healthy. I want to take care of my health, so I eat mainly fruit and vegetables. Oh! And I stay away from sugar, you do too, don’t you?

23. Tony: Hm, yes. And I think most people are in agreement （同意）that fruit and vegetables are good for health. But ,um, I would say that fast food itself isn’t always bad for you, but too much of it is not good.
Laura: Actually, did you know that it’s been found in laboratory testing that some types of oil are really bad for us? So I don’t eat anything that’s been cooked in oil. Also, did you know that some foods might cause cancer（引起癌症）? Like burnt barbecued meat. I’ve heard eating burnt food like this can increase the risk of cancer（增加癌症的危险）.

24. Peter: Really! But I love to eat meat that’s well cooked, even if it is a little burnt. It’s delicious, and meat isn’t really dangerous, is it?
Laura: Oh! Yes, it is! I never eat meat. It’s not at all good for our health. If I were you, I’d eat nuts instead.
Tony: Well, I agree it’s good to eat lots of fruit and vegetables, but I think it’s also fine to eat some meat or fish. People who eat a balanced diet（平衡饮食） should be healthier than those who only eat biscuits and hamburgers, shouldn’t they? I prefer to only eat food that I like, but isn’t it important to eat food that’s healthy, even if you don’t like it? The main thing is to have a good balance.
