Dear Ming-hui,

        How's everything?

Mark: Anna, what are you listening to? I like that singer's voice.
Anna: It's Sam Austin's “Never Is Never.”
Mark:  I never heard of him before. Where is he from?
Anna: He's American, but many of his fans are in Korea. He's my favorite singer now.
Mark: What's special about his songs?
Anna: He writes his own songs. And he sings slowly, in a low voice. His songs move us because they are about the lives of teenagers like you and me.
Mark: That's why this song sounds so different. Hey, can I borrow that CD for the weekend?
Anna: Uh…I'm afraid not. I bought it only two days ago. Can you wait until next month?
Mark: Sure, no problem.
Anna: He's new, but he's already very popular. You can learn more about him on the Internet.
Mark: O.K. Thanks.

They keep telling me:
Make the correct plan;
Think the correct way;
Ask the right question;
Follow the right way.

Are things as simple as black or white?
Can we really find in life any clear line?
I'm not happy with what they say;
I believe there is another way.

Listen to me!
Listen to me!
Can I have my own voice?
Can't I tell my own stories?

I'll know what I feel.
I'll say what I think.
I'll start my own trip.
Then I'll make my own history.

The Purple Knife
This months movie for both young and old
The story
       Molly Wilson is a shy little girl who lives in Glass Town. One day the people in her town get sick in a strange way. The wisest woman in the town says that Molly is the only person who can save them. She has to find a purple knife in the Black House of Ice Mountain all by herself. The house is so dark and dangerous that nobody ever went near it before. Experience Mollys exciting trip and find out if she can save the people of Glass Town.

The best part
        People find joy and hope in the wonderful magic world of The Purple Knife, where animals talk and people fly. The burning bridge is the most exciting part of the movie. It looks surprisingly real – no one in the theater can take their eyes off it!

The weak part
        The music is not as exciting as it should be during exciting moments. Also, the story ends too soon. People may leave the theater with some questions in their minds.

39 What does the writer think of the movie?

        Siena is an old city in the north of Italy. It began with a group of people living on its hills over 2,900 years ago. Around the year 1100, Siena became an important business center in Italy. In 1472, the first bank of the world was built in this city and has been doing business ever since.
        Today Siena is famous for keeping its “old face.” For example, its city walls, which helped keep the city safe in the past, are hundreds of years old now and look almost the same as before. Also, many old buildings are seen at the Piazza del Campo, the most important meeting place of the city. Few things have really changed in this center of public life for hundreds of years. Now people still go to the open space for sharing news, shopping, or playing sports. There is one more thing that helps keep Siena's old face: cars cannot enter the city most of the time.
        True, Siena is old, but it is beautiful old. People are welcome to visit this beautiful city and walk into the past.

        In 2005, three rice farmers in Tainan, Taiwan, became famous because of the movie Let It Be. The movie shows how the three farmers live and work on the land. People are surprised by their stories and by their love for the land they live on.
        For the farmers, the land is the only hope they see in life. They stay happy in the light of hope, whether the light is strong or weak. Even in hard times, the farmers still give thanks to the land and keep working happily on their farms. When their farms grow very little rice, they just laugh and say, “It's OK. Don't worry! Were still living a happy life!”
        That is the way many Taiwanese farmers live with their problems. They work hard and never ask for much form the land. All they want is to love and live for it. Because of the movie, the world can remember the farmers in Taiwan for their hard work and their “let-it-be” idea about life.
