The Westborough High School golf team had taken the official photos with the state prize. The other
teams, disappointed, were on the bus heading home. And then Westborough instructor Greg Rota noticed
something wrong on one of the score cards. A 9 had been recorded as A 7. They were not the state prize
winner; Woburn High had won. "No one would have known," said Woburn"s instructor, Bob Doran. For
Rota, it wasn"t a difficult decision:"The prize wasn"t ours to take."
Coin Stars
"College students are lazy, but they also want to help," says University of Pennsylvania graduate Dana
Hork. So she made it easy, placing cups in rooms where students could leave their spare coins, and handing
out cups to first-year students to keep in their homes. Her "Change for Change" effort has collected $40,000
for charities, which were decided upon by students.

a question immediately came into my mind: Would A Simple Noodle Story be directed by the good Zhang
Yimou or the bad Zhang Yimou? The answer:neither.
Starting with his first time as a cinema-photographer on Yellow Earth right after graduating from film
school in the early 80s, everything Zhang shot was inspiring. In the late 80s and early 90s, he directed
several movies already considered classics, including the banned (禁止) To Live.
A Simple Noodle Story is set in the late Ming Dynasty (1368~1644), follows several amusing characters
working in a restaurant in the faraway, but naturally beautiful, western province of Gansu. Zhang brought
together a group of popular comedic (喜剧的) actors led by Xiao Shenyang, who shot to fame earlier last
year because of his very funny styles. Xiao Shenyang"s character, Li Si, is having an affair with his boss"s
wife, who is simply called "Boss" Wife" throughout the movie.
A Simple Noodle Story, which started national screening Friday, is already bringing in money, scoring
a total box office income of 67.1 million yuan? ($9.83 million) by Sunday morning and is expecting its first
weekend to reach 100 million yuan ($14.65 million).
In spite of the box office success, the film has received mixed reviews. Most local media admitted Zhang"s
success in entertaining the public, but writer Han Han wrote in his blog that A Simple Noodle Story is more
like a long-drawn-out TV comedy and that Zhang has made no improvement in directing since his first film.
In his defense, Zhang said that he was just trying to have fun with the film. "I"m not a master of artistic
films. I am just trying to make a fun movie."
B. Politics
C. Entertainment
D. Economy

D. Zhang Yimou with His New Movie Has Come Again
B. 票房成绩
C. 影院包厢

C. A classic film
D. A comedic film.

The 21-kilometer Guangfo Line connects Guangzhou City with Foshan City, both in the manufacturing hub
of the Pearl River Delta region in Guangdong Province.

to 30 minutes, said sources with the subway company Guangzhou Metro.
The line has 14 stations and a ride from end to end costs only six yuan (less than $1).
Local authorities have been pushing for the increased integration of cities in the Pearl River Delta and
consider the operation of the Guangfo Line a big step in that direction.

hunting for jobs.
Sichuan University has done something special to help its graduates. One morning last month, a lady
stopped her Porsche (保时捷豪华跑车) in front of the students" canteen (食堂). She stepped out of her
expensive car and began to polish shoes for the students who were passing by. Later it was discovered that
she was a special lecturer who had been invited to talk to students on career development.
Li Hui, 42, started from scratch (白手起家) in 1998 and has expanded her shoe-polishing service from
a single one-person stand on a street to a chain of 2,000 stands that operate in supermarkets, hotels and office
buildings.
Li Hui said, "Apart from the existing and advertised job opportunities, there are plenty of other ways that
people can try to make money. There is nothing ignoble if you are doing an off-line business on your own,
such as car washing, house cleaning, shoe polishing, etc."

A French tourist highly praised for rescuing a two-year-old girl in Manhattan said he didn"t think twice
before diving into the freezing East River.
Tuesday"s Daily News said 29-year-old Julien Duret from France is the man who left the spot quickly
after the rescue last Saturday.
He lifted the little girl out of the water after she fell off the bank at the South Street Seaport museum.
He handed the girl to her father, David Anderson, who had dived in after him.
"I didn"t think at all," Duret told the Daily News. "It happened very fast. I reacted very fast."
Duret, an engineer on vacation, was walking with his girlfriend along the pier (码头) when he saw
something falling into the water. He thought it was a doll, but realized it was a child when he approached
the river. In an instant, he took off his coat and jumped into the water.
When he reached the girl, she appeared lifeless, he said. Fortunately, when she was out of the water,
she opened her eyes.
Anderson said his daughter slipped off the bank when he was adjusting his camera. An ambulance came
later for her, said Duret, who was handed dry clothes from onlookers. Duret caught a taxi with his girlfriend
shortly after.
The rescue happened on the day before he left for France. Duret said he didn"t realize his tale of heroism
had greatly moved New York until he was leaving the city the next morning.
"I don"t really think I"m a hero," said Duret. "Anyone would do the same thing."
