Johnny lived with his mother and father in a small town in the mountains

One day there was an earthquake near the town. Many houses were damaged(被损坏的). Everyone thought that there would soon be another earthquake.

They were worried that the second earthquake would be worse than the first.

“We must send Johnny to a safe place,” Johnny’s mother said to her husband. “Many of our friends are sending their children to relatives（亲戚） in other towns,’

“We’ll send him to my brother, Peter,” Johnny’s father said. “He lives a long way away. Johnny will be safe with him.’

He telephoned Johnny’s Uncle Peter and asked him if he would let Johnny live with him.

“He’s a good boy,” he said. “He won’t give you any trouble.’

“All right,’ Johnny’s Uncle Peter said, “but I’m not used to children. I live a very quiet and peaceful life.”

“You won’t know Johnny’s in the house,” his father told him.

So Johnny, who was five, went to live with his uncle.

Two days later, his mother and father received a telegram（电报）from Peter.

It said: “I am returning the child. Please send an earthquake.”

Writer	Time	Topic: Who’s a better singer, Andy Lau or Jacky Cheung?
Lucy	1-17-2012 2:45 p.m.	Some people say Jacky Cheung is the best Chinese singer. I don’t think so! Andy Lau is the best. I went to his concert last year. It was so hard to believe, I almost cried! OK, I did cry. That’s because Andy Lau is so handsome!
Anita	1-17-2012 4:38 p.m.	I don’t agree at all. Andy Lau sounds like every other singer. His voice is nothing special. However, Jacky Cheung’s is different from others’, and his songs are so romantic!
Tom	1-17-2012 8:55 p.m.	I think they are about the same. But Jacky Cheung is really a better actor. I’ve seen almost all of his movies. Remember the one that he played the lead role of an airplane pilot in, and his plane hit a hill. I love that movie!
Peter	1-18-2012 10:17 a.m.	I also think Jacky Cheung is a better singer, I prefer his Cantonese(粤语) songs. Maybe they sound better because Cantonese is his first language.
Anita	1-18-2012 12:47 p.m.	I agree. Jacky Cheung’s Cantonese songs are better than his Mandarin(普通话) songs though I still like all his songs.
