NUNCHAKU (《双截棍》) is one of Taiwanese pop star Jay Chou's most popular songs. In the upcoming Hollywood movie The Green Hornet (《青蜂侠》), Jay Chou will use nunchaku to fight crimes. He will play the role of Kato, which his idol Bruce Lee (李小龙) played in the 1960s' TV series.
In The Green Hornet, Kato is a martial arts master. He drives a special car called Black Beauty for his friend Britt Reid. They fight crimes with martial arts and weapons to make the society peaceful.
Jay Chou entered the movie business as the lead actor in Initial D (《头文字D》) in 2005. He won Best Newcomer at the Golden Horse Awards. After that, Jay's performing talent has made him even more famous. In his self-directed movie A Secret That Can't Be Told (《不能说的秘密》), Jay starred as a talented high school student who plays the piano. This movie has won him more die-hard fans.
However, Jay isn't satisfied. He once said: “I won't be Bruce Lee's Kato – I will bring my own understanding. It's a dream role, and I'm looking forward to the challenge.”

AT a pet shop, a woman tells the shopkeeper what she wants. After thinking for a moment, he says: 61 "I've got just the thing for you, madam. I'll go get him."
A few seconds later, he returns with a lovely little puppy. "This is a special dog," he tells her. "He can fly." He throws the dog into the air. The puppy begins to float (浮动) beautifully around the shop.
"There is one problem with him, madam. 62 Whenever you say ''my'', he'll eat whatever you've mentioned. Watch. ''My apple''!" The lady watches in surprise as the dog flies over to the shopkeeper and finishes the apple like a horse.
"He's cute, and so unusual. I'll take him," she says, and a few minutes later 63 她和这条小狗已经在回家的路上了.
"Darling, look,64 我今天买了一条多么可爱的小狗啊!“ she says to her husband when she gets back home. "He can fly!"
The husband takes a look at the dog, and then says: "Fly eh? Ha! My foot!"
IN a 30-minute film called The Chase, a girl tries to catch a thief and finally takes him down with martial arts (武术) skills.
Anything special? Thirteen-year-old US girl Sophia Tran wrote, shot and performed in the film. She played the girl in the movie and her father, Steven, played the thief.
Now an eighth-grader at Ladera Ranch Middle School, California, Tran wrote The Chase over the summer of 2008. She shot the film in the fall of 2008 before holding the premiere (首映式) at her home in January the next year.
“It is important to have passion in filmmaking or you are not going to make it,” the quiet teenager said with a smile. “Also, you should read a lot of books about filmmaking.”
Tran thinks that many screenplays don't have any “suspense (悬念) as the film progresses.” She is now working on a movie which she says will be a suspense story.
Steven says his daughter has enjoyed drama and action movies since she was 7.
“She started to be interested in how stories are adapted (改编) to a screenplay,” Steven said. “And she wrote her own books when she was in second grade.”
But Tran also has a big heart. She sold DVD copies of her film The Chase for $10 each to family and friends. She then donated $400 from the DVD sales to her school to buy new computers.

A. a thief B. a doctor C. a girl D. a police woman

PAUL’S brother bought him a new car as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve (前夜), Paul saw a boy walking around the new car, admiring it.
"Is this your car, Mister?" he asked.
Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas." The boy was amazed. "You mean your brother just gave it to you? Boy, I wish...." Paul knew what he was going to wish for — a brother who would buy him a car. But the boy surprised Paul.
"I wish that I could be a brother like that," he said.
Astonished, Paul invited the boy to go for a ride in the new car.
After a short ride, the boy said, "Would you mind driving in front of my house?" Paul thought the boy wanted to show the car to his neighbors. But Paul was wrong again.

TEENAGERS lead an exciting life in high school, making friends and dreaming about the future. However, as all young people know, teenagers have plenty of worries too.
Do you know what British teenagers worry about most? A survey by the UK's Department of Health shows that the top worries are losing weight (减肥) and fitting in (适应). Over 100,000 teenagers took part in the research.
Losing weight is a big concern among teenagers. This may be an effect of famous people with perfect bodies around them.
Adolescence is a physically and emotionally difficult time. Teenagers want to feel good about their bodies.
It's also important for them to be accepted. Many teenagers were picked on (作弄) in high school. “Who should I eat lunch with?” “Who should I hang out with?” “Will I be accepted?” These questions are troubling many UK teenagers, according to the survey.
It's interesting to see that family background has an effect on teenagers' worries. Teenagers from low-income families worried more about losing weight and bullying (欺凌弱小). Teenagers from higher income families were more likely to worry about fitting in and peer pressure (同辈压力).
49 According to the survey, British teenagers are most worried about ______.
A. fitting in and making money B. finding jobs and making friends
C. losing weight and being accepted D. making money and losing weight.
50. Many teenagers are concerned about losing weight because ______.
A. they see thin famous people B. they care a lot about health
C. they don't have much money D. they face problems in life
