    Writer / time Topic: Who's a better singer: Andy Lau or Jacky Cheung?
    Andyfan
    1-17-2005 
    2:45p. m.                 
    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 hard to believe, I almost cried! OK, I did
    cry, but that's because Andy is so handsome!
    1000 reasons
    1-17-2005
    4:38 p.m.
    I don't agree at all. Andy sounds like every other singer. His voice is nothing
    special. On the other hand, Jacky's voice is different from others, and his songs
    are so romantic!
    Movieman
    1-18-2005
    8:55 p.m.
    I think they're about the same. But Andy is really a better actor. I've seen almost
    all of his movies. Remember the one where he was an airplane pilot, and his plane
    crashed near a farm? I love that film!
    Lindalee
    1-18-2005
    10:17a.m.
    I also think Jacky is a better singer. I prefer his Cantonese songs. Maybe they
    sound better because Cantonese is his first language.
    1000reasons
    1-18-2005
    12:47 p.m.
    I agree. Jacky's Cantonese songs are better than his Mandarin (普通话) songs.
    (Though, I still like all his songs!)
    1. Who likes Andy Lau the best?
    [     ]
    A. Andyfan
    B. 1000 reasons
    C. Movieman
    D. Lindalee
    2. Why did Andfan cry?

    A. She was sad at a concert.
    B. She was angry with Jacky Cheung.
    C. She had a broken heart.
    D. She thought Andy Lau was very good-looking.
    3. What's Movieman's opinion?
    [     ]
    A. Andy is a better singer.
    B. Jacky is a better singer.
    C. They both sing well.
    D. Jacky is a better actor.
    4. Lindalee thinks Jacky's Cantonese songs sound the best because _____.
