There are a lot of things that happen to me in China but would certainly never happen in the US. One of those things is being called “strong”.
The first time was last December. I was walking across the high school campus in Guangzhou where I taught when a student in a gray scarf waved hello. I smiled and waved back, but then she stopped and called my name. “You're so strong!” She smiled and pointed at what appeared to be my arm.
I looked down at my arms. Let's get one thing clear: I'm a very skinny guy. Once, while rehearsing for a high school talent show, I was told by the teacher in charge that I couldn't participate in the men's shirtless dance routine because my visible rig cage(胸腔) would frighten the audience.
“I'm so what?” “You're so strong!” she repeated. “Um, thanks!” I didn't know what else to say, so we both waved goodbye.
The next morning I stepped into my oral English classroom only to be greeted instantly by a unanimous(异口同声的) “Waaa!” of shock and admiration. “What?” I asked. “You're so strong!” shouted a boy from the back of the class.
“Okay, will someone tell me what that means?” I was curious as to the real reason for such praise. So I turned to the monitor, gesturing for him to speak.
“We just mean, you look very strong today,” he offered earnestly.
“What?! You mean like this?” I curled my arm like a bodybuilder.
“No! But it's so cold, and you're only wearing a shortsleeve shirt.”
Oh, I got it. My “strength” had less to do with my muscle and more to do with my apparent ignorance of the cold weather.

You need to be of a certain age to understand why so many people in Hollywood are caring about the possible closing down of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (米高梅电影公司).For the past 40 years, its output has been good, but now it is on the ropes, with debts of $ 3.7 billion and will have to sell off its most valuable assets.
In its golden time, MGM stood for something.If Warner Brothers meant social dramas and gangster movies, and Disney meant cartoon films, then MGM was healthy fantasy.This business model found its most glorious expression in its musicals of the post-war era.It also featured such many famous stars as Fred Astaire, Frank Sinatra, Gene Kelly and Judy Garland.
But MGM had always put its hopes on the quality of stars it could attract.From the time MGM became a company in 1924, the studio and his associate proved themselves good at creating big names.
For 35 years, this worked well enough, but the growing power of television disturbed Hollywood.MGM continued to throw money into making gorgeous-looking musicals, but despite some big successes audiences gradually started to drift away.Throughout the sixties, MGM's decline set in.Things went from bad to worse.In 1973, MGM stopped distributing its own films.Since then, the Lion's roar has been reduced to a whimper (呜咽).
How far MGM has fallen can be shown by its recent releases.This was a studio that for years offered a reliable supply of first-class films.Yet last year its total output was three.To make it worse, all were co-produced with other studios.And this year? Only one so far, and maybe the last.
What now? MGM will probably be sold, though recent buyers have been cautious about a price thought to be around $ 2 billion.
1.MGM is becoming the focus in Hollywood because it _______.
A. has more supporters B. has produced good films
C. might be closed down D. has lost all its assets
2.What can we learn about MGM from the text?
A. It has been sold out for around $ 2 billion.
B. The Internet was a factor causing its decline.
C. It only produced three films by itself last year.
D. It made a wrong decision for its development.
3.What's the main idea of the text?
A. The past glories of MGM. B. The musicals made by MGM.
C. The decline of MGM. D. A historical decision by MGM
