Even people who don’t have much talent for acting or singing still dream of being discovered by a talent scout (星探). It seems just like the lottery (彩票), but better you get both fame and money.
For me, the dream seemed likely to stay a dream. But everything last week in Beijing.
I was eating dinner with some friends. As I was getting ready to pay, a young Chinese woman came running up to me. I was that I must have done something horrible to offend(冒犯) her without it.
“You are a white man,” she said when she got to our table.
“Yes.”
“Can you speak ?” she asked.
“Yes.”
“Oh good. Come with me now, please.”
I walked outside and saw that a movie was being shot in front of one of the street’s largest .
The woman, a talent agent, had a foreigner for this movie, but he had forgotten to . She needed to find a white guy who spoke English, and I was the only one . My part was to walk from one end of the street to the other, and then the club. When I got to the club, I was supposed to to my friend and say, “Forget about the girl, man. We are here to party!” It took me three tries to say the line or walk without tripping, but I got it right.
The talent scout ran to me afterward. “You are so . I would like you to join my agency.” I know I am not going to be the next Jay Chou. , it seems that my “star” talents are being white and being able to speak English. , next time you are watching a Chinese movie, look in the . If you see a white guy stumbling (蹒跚) on his way into a nightclub, it might just be me in my way to stardom (星途).

Beware of those who use the truth to cheat. When someone tells you something that is , but leaves out important information that should be , he can create a false impression.
For example, someone might say, “I just a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and it for one hundred dollars!”
This guy’s a winner, ? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred , and only one was a winner. He’s really a big !
He didn’t say anything that was , but he deliberately left out some important . That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically , but they are just as not .
Untrustworthy candidates in campaigns often use this strategy. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and three million jobs. Then she another term. One of her opponents runs an advertisement , “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true. , an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of million jobs.”
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the . An advertisement might boast (吹嘘), “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples.” It to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.
This kind of cheat happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.

How long can human beings live? Most scientists who study old age think that the human body is1to live no longer than 120 years. However, 110 years is probably the longest that anyone could hope to live -- if he or she is2healthy and lucky. Some scientists even say we can live as long as 130 years! Yet, our cells simply cannot continue to reproduce3. They wear out, and as a result, we get old and4die.
Even though we can't live forever, we are living a5life than ever before. In 1900, the average American life span (寿命) was only 47 years, but today it is 75 years!
When does old age begin then? Sixty-five may be out-of-date as the6line between middle age and old age. After all, many older people don't begin to experience physical and mental7until after age 75.
People are living longer because more people8childhood. Before modern medicine changed the laws of nature, many children died of common childhood9. Now that the chances of dying10are much lower, the chances of living long are much higher due to better diets and health care.
On the whole, our population is getting older. The11in our population will have lasting effects on our social development and our way of life. Some people fear such changes will be for the worse, while some see12, not disaster, many men and women in their "golden years" are healthy, still active, and young in13if not in age.
As the society grows old, we need the14of our older citizens. With long lives ahead of them, they need to15active and devoted.
