I am the best of the three of us.” Then, he asked Jack if he would like to play with him. Jack said, “OK.” Then, the two began to play. As a tall boy, Nick showed great skill (技巧) at playing badminton. It was not easy for Jack to win, but still, he won the game. To Jack’s surprise, Nick said, “I can win if I have a racket (球拍) as good as yours.” However, Jack didn’t think so. He said, “Let’s swap rackets to play again.” Unluckily for Nick, he still lost the game. This time round, Nick had no excuses. He lowered his head and planned to leave.

It's important to choose the colors we want.Red may be very good for a restaurant，but it could be wrong for an art gallery，because people want to see the pictures，not the walls behind.White can make a small room look bigger.If your room is very small，you can paint the walls white.

When movie theaters showed silent movies, musicians were often there to play music along with the movie. Sometimes, musicians also made some special sounds. However, there was no sound in the movie itself. People learned the story through the actors, the musicians and words on the screen. When movies first had sound, not everyone liked it. Many silent movie actors thought it was not easy to perform in the new kind of movie. Clara Bow was a famous silent-movie actress in the early 1920s. She was so nervous (紧张的) about her voice (声音) that she couldn’t become a star in the world of talking pictures. She then left show business (演艺界). The Jazz Singer (1927) was the first movie with sound. Talking pictures became a big success, and there were more and more movies like that. Later, silent movies became history.
