Never a dull moment
by Tony Bradman
(1) If you like to keep lively,
If you hate being bored,
Just come down to our house
And knock on the door.
(2) It's the noisiest house
In the whole of our town,
There're doors always slamming(砰地关上)
And things falling down.
(3) My dad keeps shouting,
And my mum, who breaks things.
The baby will bite you,
And our dog runs rings.
(4) My sister cries
And my brother roars(咆哮).
And a grandpa is stone deaf,
(He always slams doors.)
(5) So come down to our house,
You don't need the address,
You will hear it ten miles away
And the outside's a mess.
(6) You won't mind the racket(嘻杂声).
You'll just love the din(吵闹声)一
For there is never a dull moment
In the house we live in!

Topic: Who's a better singer, Andy Lau(刘德华)or Jacky Cheung(张学友)? |

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 wonderful, I almost cried! OK, I did cry, but that's because Andy is so handsome. |

I disagree with Jim. Andy sounds like every other singer. His voice is nothing special. on the other hand, Jacky's voice unique, and his songs are so romantic.(浪漫的) |
Linda 9-10-2014 8:54pm |
I think they are about the same. But Andy is a better actor. I've seen almost all of his movies. Remember the one where he was an airplane pilot, and his plane crashed(坠毁) near a farm? I love that movie! |
John 9-16-2014 10:25pm |
I also think Jacky is a better singer I prefer his Cantonese songs. Maybe they sound better because Cantonese is his first language. |
Tom 10-2-2014 10:12pm |
I agree. Jacky's Cantonese songs are better than his Mandarin(华语) songs. (Though, I still like all his songs!) |
He is quiet and shy. He likes to hide his eyes behind his hair. He doesn't smile very often. However, if you talk to him about music, he'll have a lot to say.
This is Jay Chou, the 24-year-old Taiwanese pop king(天王). His fans are so excited because he will sing songs in Beijing on September 12. Those songs are from his new album(唱片), "Ye Huimei", and the album was released(发行) in July and was named after his mother.
Chou grew up just with his mother. He did not talk much and did badly in many school subjects.
His mother noticed the boy's special interest in music and sent him to learn piano when he was only three years old. He loved it and kept on practicing.
Chou is not very handsome. He does not speak clearly when he sings or talks. But the singer has huge crowds of fans. "He is really good at music. It makes him attractive(有魅力的) to me," said Liu Jiajun, a Junior 2 student in NO.101 Middle School in Beijing.
"He is true to himself. He never follows others," said Zhang Yujie, a Junior l girl at Huaibei Middle School in Sihon9, Jiangsu Province.
