Dear Mr. Hush,

I just learned over the radio that you feel as bad as I do about the way people use their cellphones. Very often in public places, people speak loudly on their cellphone, and we have to hear about other people’s business. But who cares about that? Not me! Why should I know the life of people I don’t even know? It’s really nice that someone famous like you speaks out for a quiet living space.

And it’s even more wonderful to know that you yourself always talk quietly when you have to use the cellphone in public places. Thanks for NOT sharing what you are talking about. We have shared too much noise already!

It is polite to use a low voice when you talk on the phone in public places.

During the past one hundred years, there have been many inventions that make our life much easier and more interesting. TV is one of them. Many people enjoy watching TV for fun. Some even believe that TV has made their children smarter because there are all kinds of information on it — news, science, sports, music, and language. Children can learn a lot from TV in a short time without going out. Many parents are happy about this because they themselves are too busy to spend time with their children.

But we have found that more and more children today have problems with reading, thinking, and concentrating even though they have watched a lot of TV. In fact, getting much information from TV does not mean real learning. Children who watch too much TV do not have enough time to think or to communicate with people. Besides, it takes time and love for children to grow up. What children need most is their parents. Parents give children love, and help them solve problems in the right way. We should teach our children what real life is without TV. After all, machines should not be more important than people.

People in the future will enjoy more new inventions.
Students who watch TV are smarter than students who do not.
Watching TV is a good way for children to understand real life.
Children should learn more from their parents than from TV.

Forever Takes a Bow

Actor Nathan Lang, 78 years old, died in his sleep last night in his house. Nathan Lang started his acting life in the 1970s. He was most known for playing Justin Maud in Young Hours. The movie made the world swoon over him. Women wanted a husband like him; men wanted a brother like him. Forever Justin, his fans called him. After Young Hours, Nathan Lang was seen in several big movies: Fallen, After Tonight, and Killing Jules. The last one won him a best actor award. In the 1980s, Nathan Lang lost his shine on the big screen. During this time, his movies never entered the top 20 list. Nathan Lang’s last movie was Dreams. Though the movie won him two best actor awards, it did not bring his fans back to the theater.

This Saturday morning, 10 o’clock at St. Peter’s Church, there will be a “movie party,” as Lang wished. Friends and family will get together and enjoy once again the good times he brought to the world.

review 評論
likely 可能
…nothing new in the story; Nathan Lang clearly didn’t do enough homework about his part in the movie. It was no surprise that the movie didn’t make it into the top 10 list the first week it was out…
…see him not as the actor Nathan Lang anymore but as the poor old man in the movie. However, good acting does not always help with the ticket sales…
…the story is fresh and interesting, but the acting is not. However, it has been the country’s best-selling movie for the past three weeks. Clearly Nathan Lang’s fans cared less about his acting than his handsome face…
…it became Nathan Lang’s second best-selling movie and also this year’s third best-selling movie in the country and may even get him another best actor award…

Have you ever seen a pumpkin that looks like a nose or an apple that looks like a funny face? They may not look great, but they taste just as good as the pretty ones. These strange-looking fruit and vegetables are called “seconds.” About 20-40% of what farmers grow is not so beautiful. Sadly, these “seconds” seldom arrive at your table, but often go straight into the trash can. Why? It’s because supermarkets don’t want to buy them from farmers—they believe their shoppers only love beautiful things. Because of these “seconds,” some farmers lose a lot of money.

Wonky Markt wishes to change this. We’re helping sell these “seconds.” Farmers can save them from the trash can, and you can get them at a lower price.

  1. NT$250 a box.
  2. You can choose as many as six kinds of fruit and vegetables a box.
  3. Service charge: NT$50 a box.
  4. No service charge if order is over NT$1,000.

Send us photos of your delicious dishes that are made with our “seconds” to oneandonly@wonkymarkt.com, and you may win our cookbook.

Here are the lyrics of a song.

Don’t Ask Him Why

by Tim Blair

He was afraid.
He was knocked on the head.
He was too little to know why Mom and Dad didn’t like him.
He was only five when he was sent to the hospital.

So don’t ask him why he did not cry for help —
He was too little to answer the question.
He was too young to know he could ask for help.

Sometimes things go wrong in this world.
Still there must be something we can do —
Something to give him hope and love.

So let’s do it. Do it. Do it.
Give him your hand.
Give him your love.
Only you and I can help him.

So don’t ask him why.
Never ever ask him why.

lyrics 歌詞

likely 可能
He liked to ask questions.
He was hit by his parents.
He was afraid of singing in front of people.
He went to school at the age of five.
