  Hong Kong action star and tourism ambassador Jackie Chan apologized for his disruption and insults (辱骂) to the audience at Jonathan Lee's concert in Hong Kong but refused to admit that he was drunk.

  Chan told the media backstage on Monday, "I was drunk and I feel ashamed." Alex Fong, Chan's son, also apologized for his father's behavior and promised the media there would he no such things next time.

  However, on Wednesday, Chan denied that he was drunk. "I would call it excitement on stage. I only made some jokes with Lee, not a big deal," he said.

  Lee also defended his friend Chan, saying there was no smell of alcohol in his breath. "He is a forthright (直率的) person. We always use dirty words with each other in daily life but it is not right to say them in public," Lee said.

  Actually, it was the second time that day that Chan disturbed an event. Guangzhou-based Information Times reported yesterday that at a TVB party, Chan criticized the Hong Kong public TV channel for keeping singers signed with the station from being interviewed by other media.

  Since Chan is Hong Kong's tourism ambassador, his gaffe on stage drew attention of the Hong Kong Tourism Hoard. A spokeswoman for the board said they had contacted Chan but he was on a business trip. She refused to comment on whether Chan's behavior had hurt Hong Kong's image. No complaints have received so far according to the Hong Kong Leisure and Cultural Service Department.

It's not much, but it's home. Francis Chan, an engineer, lives in Hampstead, north London, in a flat that's just 4ft wide by 21ft long. He loves it.

Tiny though it is, it has got all the comforts. Peter Baynes, Chan’s architect (建筑师),has achieved a clever piece of design, according to architectural experts.

The Chan mini-house was built on what was once a path down the side of a big Victarian house. Not an inch of space is wasted.

When you step in through the front door, you're standing in the shower, on Britain' s only self-cleansing doormat (自动清洁门垫). A door opens on to an equally tiny toilet with washbasin. Two steps further in comes the kitchen, complete with full-sized cooker and fridge, and washer/ drier. A worktop folds down from the wall.

Another step and you're into the dining/ office area. Four people can sit here for dinner, says Chan as he sets the table-top into place. He even has a fold-down drawing-board for when he's working at home. The bed is hidden under a cover board right at the back. "I don't even have to make the bed," Chan says." I just put the cover down. "

Chan's business suits hang neatly on the wall over the bed. Daylight comes in through the skylight. The house feels like a very small boat and Chan admits he toyed with the idea of naming it the "boat-house".

"It cost around £4,700 to build last year. Now it's been valued at £30,000. It proves that good design doesn't need to cost more. It just needs a lot of care." says Chan.

1.By saying "It's not much" (line 1, para. 1), the author means that Chan's flat______.

A. is cheap                  B. has cheap furniture       C. has a simple design        D. is fairly small

2.Where is Chan's flat?

A. Next to a big house                       B. Under an old building   

C. In a busy London street       D. By the side of a country road

3.Which of the following is the right order of things described in the text?

A. Shower, kitchen, toilet, dining table and bed

B. Shower, toilet, dining table, kitchen and bed

C. Shower, toilet, kitchen, dining table and bed 

D. Shower, kitchen, toilet, bed and dining table

4.What is the purpose of this writing?

A. To sell Chan's flat for more money                  

B. To tell people how to take care of small flat

C. To introduce to readers a cleverly-designed flat 

D. To call on engineers to design their own home

  He is only 20 years old, but has already had five years of experience in the world of entertainment. He is Edison Chan(陈冠希).

  Edison Chan has attracted much attention since joining entertainment circles(娱乐圈). His attrac-tive appearance has certainly helped, but he's also

received help from heavyweights like the Chairman of Emperor Entertainment Albert Yueng and superstar Jackie Chan. Even late movie and pop idol(偶象)Leslie Cheung(张国荣)once wrote songs for him.

  With such support, Edison slid easily into the industry--singing, acting and filming in commercials. He soon became one of Hong Kong's most popular rising stars. His big break came with his performance in “Infernal(恐怖的)Affairs”Another milestone was “Twins Effect”, which took over 15 million Hong Kong dollars in its opening week,

  Edison had always dreamt of being a basketball player, but he was forced by his father to model and act from an early age. When he was 15 years old, he shot a commercial with Hong Kong superstar Leon Lai(黎明), which attracted the atten-tion of Emperor Entertainment.

  But not satisfied with acting alone, Edison has turned his hand to singing. He is finding time between shoots to make his album and music video. He said he thoroughly enjoyed himself when he was busy working.

  This young boy said, “I think that now I can better understand what it is to be an actor and know more about the media(媒体). I've changed a lot since I first entered the circle. Therefore I will try my best to keep up a good relationship with the media. But they should know there are always some things I can't say. Sometimes they say things that aren't true, but I don't care. I hope they can realize I'm also an ordinary person.”

  With this “I don't care”attitude, Edison has built his career on his public image of being a cool, bad boy.

(1)Which of the following is NOT the reason for Edison Chan's success?

[  ]

A.His good looks.

B.The help from some famous people.

C.His own efforts.

D.His young age.

(2)What can we learn about Edison Chan from the passage?

[  ]

A.He wanted to be an actor as a young boy.

B.He doesn't like singing.

C.He doesn't care what the media says.

D.He is a bad boy.

(3)What is the best title for the passage?

[  ]

A.The Secret of Edison Chan's Success

B.Idol of Today in Entertainment World:Edison Chan

C.I Don't Care

D.Edison Chan and Media
