3a Read the reviews.
Circle the things the reviewers like,
and under line the things the reviewers don't like.
Yellow River Fisherman
This is Hong Tao's latest movie.
I like Hong Tao.He's made some great movies over
the years.
Unfortunately,this is his worst movie.
If you're looking for entertainment,stay at home
and watch TV.
Yellow River Fisherman is too long,and it's really boring.
It does have a few good features,though.
I thought the fisherman's wife was really funny.
Amy Kim,Photography
Be sure to see this exhibition at the Lido Gallery.
Amy Kim is one of the best-known Chinese
photographers in the world today,
and some of her most famous photos are on
display in this exhibition.
She really has something for everyone.
There are many great photos of people and of the countryside.
The few city photographs are less successful.
I see the same things every day and they don't interest me as much.
But this is a great show from a world-class photographer.
Whatever you do,don't miss this exhibition.
Wild and Windy
Over the years,we've seen musical groups with
pretty strange names come and go.
Few have stranger names than this band.
As the name suggests,
the band has lots of energy.
And they play the kind of music
that I love to hear.
Every song is really loud and you often can't understand the words,
but this is okay because the lyrics aren't very good.
However,these are musicians who make us happy- even on a Monday morning!
