Betty: Oh, look. There's the new Cool Kids CD.
Tony: The Cool Kids? Do you like them?
Betty: Oh, yeah. They're my favorite band. I like music that I can dance to.
Tony: You're kidding. I think they're awful. I prefer music that has great lyrics.., music that I can sing along with.
Betty: I like songs I can sing along with too. So what's your favorite band?
Tony: The Lions. Their words are interesting and...

Boy: Look, Carmen. These T-shirts are great! Look at this one.
Girl: What a great T-shirt, Xu Fei really love Dan Dervish. I like musicians who play different kinds of music.
Boy: Hmmm... he's okay ....
Girl: He's only okay?! You must be joking.
Boy: Well... I like musicians who write their own songs. Dan Dervish doesn't write his own music.
Girl: Hmm. Well, I think he's great.
Boy: The Modern's T-shirt is interesting.
Girl: The Modern are really great. I love music that's really loud and energetic.
Boy: I know you do... but I prefer groups that play quiet and gentle songs.

Boy 1: Wow, you sure have lots of cool stuff, what a great jacket!
Boy 2: Yeah, it's new. I really like it. I like clothes that are unusual.
Boy 1: Yeah, me too. Say ... is that a new book over there?
Boy 2: Yes, it is. It's a book about volleyball. It tells about how to become a good player.
Boy 1: Is it good?
Boy 2: Yeah, it's great. I like writers who explain things well.
Boy 1: Me, too. Ummmm, Michael?
Boy 2: Yes?
BOY 1: Uhhh ... Where did you get that movie poster?
Boy 2: Oh, the Monster Lizard poster? My brother got it for me. He works at a movie theater.
Boy 1: It's a great poster.
Boy 2: Yeah, it is. I love movies that are about monsters, don't you?
Boy 1: I sure do. Say ... Michael ... Do you think your brother could get a Monster Lizard poster for me?
Boy 2: Probably. I'll ask him.
Boy 1: That would be great.

Yellow River Fishermen
This is Hung Tao's latest movie. I like Hung 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.
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!

Subject: Hong Kong From: Lingling
Dear pen 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’m 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 that they can dance to. I prefer quiet, traditional 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’re lots of different ki nds of food here. I don’t know what to try next. What kinds of food do you prefer?
My host family is taking me over 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, others say they’re great. What kinds of films do you prefer?
Yours,
Lingling
Reading: I only eat food that tastes good.
How important is keeping healthy to you? A group of young people got together to discuss this question. Here’s part of t heir discussion.
PETER: I’d like to stay healthy, but to be honest, 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.
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 ear 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?
Tony: Hm, yes. I’d stay away from cola and sweet desserts if I were you. And I think most people are in agreement 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, don’t 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 s ome foods might cause cancer? Like burnt barbecued meat. I’ve heard eating burnt food like this can increase the risk of cancer.
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 d angerous,
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. Peop le who eat a balanced diet 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 tohave a good balance.。
