Writer/Time | Topic:Who’s a better singer,Andy Lau or Jaeky Cheung? |
Andyfan 1-17-2005 2:45p.m. | Some people say Jacky is the best Chinese singer.I don’t think so! Andy is the best.I went to his concert last year.It was so hard to believe,I almost cried! OK,I did cry,but that’s because Andy is so hand-some! |
1000 reasons 1-17-2005 4:38p.m. | I don’t agree at all.Andy sounds like every other singer.His voice is nothing special.On the other hand,Jacky’s voice is different from others,and his songs are so romantic! |
Movieman 1-17-2005 8:55p.m | I think they’re about the same.But Andy is really a better actor(演员).I’ve seen almost all of his movies.Remember the one where he was an airplane pilot(飞行员),and his plane crashed near a farm? I love that movie! |
Lindalee 1-l8-2005 10:17a.m. | I also think Jacky’s a better singer,I prefer his Cantonese songs.Maybe they sound better because Cantonese is his first language. |
1000 reasons 1-l8-2005 12:47p.m. | I agree.Jacky’s Cantonese songs are better than his Mandarin(普通话)songs.(Though I still like all his songs!) |

Soon computers and other machines(机器)will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The program works because everyone's eyes are different.So in the future you won't have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank.You'll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are.
The eye-recognition(眼睛识别)program has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA,Britain,Spain,Italy and Turkey.Soon this technology(技术)will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are.
However,scientists are also working on other systems.Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell! We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.
Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don’t change as you get older,and don’t get dirty like hands or fingers,and even/wins have different eyes.So the eye-recognition program can be up to 94% correct,depending on how good the technology is.However,some other programs may only be 51% correct at present.In Britain,it was found that 91%of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.
In the future your computer will be looking you in the eye.So smile!

The staff of the Kennedy School Newsletter asked students at our school to take a survey. In the survey, we asked, "What is your dream job?" We asked 400 students at our school. Here are the results of our survey.
Most of the students at our school wanted to be professional athletes (专业运动员) in the future! At our school, 64 people hoped to be sports stars in the future. This included 32 future soccer players, 12 baseball players, 10 basketball players, 7 tennis players, and 3 hockey players.
Lots of students at our school also wanted to be movie stars or singers.58 students said they wanted to become singers, and 57 said they wanted to act in movies. We hope your dreams come true! Just remember your friends from school when you become superstars.
Other popular future jobs are vets (49), computer programmers (40), writers (30), and artists (29). To our surprise, very few students at our school wanted to be doctors (7), lawyers (13), or business people (4). And the teachers at our school may be surprised to know that only 9 students hoped to teach in the future. Sorry teachers!
You can see the rest of the results from our survey in the chart. And for those students who did not get to answer our survey, please stop by our office. We want to know your ideas, tool We will add your answers to our survey results and publish the final results in the school yearbook.

American and British people use different greetings.In the USA.the commonest greeting is“Hi”.In Britain it is“Hello!”or“How are you?”“Hi!”is creeping(蔓延) into British,too.When they are introduced to someone,the Americans say,“Glad to know you.”The British say, “How do you do?”or“Pleased to meet you.”When Americans say“Good-bye”,they nearly always add,“Have a good day,”or“Have a good trip,”etc, to friends and strangers alike.The British are already beginning to use“Have a good day”
