E.g.:

This week I watched a film called The Sting. It's quite old - from 1973, but still very good. It won 7 Oscars in 1974. The story is complicated and keeps you guessing about what will happen next. The dialogue is easy to follow but with some old-fashioned slang because the story is set in the 1930s. ]]> 2022-03-31 14:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/iainsco/ListeningReadingLog/wish/2123680929 stella930713 https://padlet.com/iainsco/ListeningReadingLog/wish/2130341329 This weekend I watched a musical called phantom of the opera. The musical was started from 1986, which is quite old. However, it was still magnificent. How they have shown the story and how they sang the song was so adorable. However, I knew the story before, therefore, I could understand what the story is about. The main thing that impresses me is how they show the story

There are three seasons from 2019 and 2021. It is about three boys and a girl who has power and a monster who comes from other worlds.

Also, it is suitable for the teenager to watch because it is exciting and not too horrible. I know that the fourth season will become this year so I looking forward to watching it. ]]> 2022-04-07 12:28:45 UTC https://padlet.com/iainsco/ListeningReadingLog/wish/2134479791 https://padlet.com/iainsco/ListeningReadingLog/wish/2134480758 This weekend I stay at home and watching the movie called revenant which starring is on of my favorite actor Leonardo .Most of the plots are desert island survival, the protagonist's acting skills are superb and the story is very logical, so I have a very sense of substitution when I watch it. furthermore I learn lots of skills of hunt which I make me feel interesting from this movie

This week I read an article about my research project called "Combating COVID-19 
Together: China's  Collaborative Response 
and the Role of Business Associations". The article focuses on some of the collaborative measures undertaken in China during COVID-19, using data from Zhejiang Province as an example, analyses the collaborative framework of these measures, mentions the detailed investigation process, for example with local banks. In general, analyses the factors influencing sectoral collaboration and the factors necessary for synergy. Finally, it is predicted that this collaborative approach to connectivity will be strategically importa nt in the future. The most useful part of this article for me was its data, as it detailed the sources of the data, and after these introduction, it increased my credibility of it, and also the way it analysed the data was something I needed to learn：a hybrid approach of deductive and inductive coding and theme development was implemented to analyse the interview transcripts.

Yesterday, I watched a Champions League match on TV to determine the strongest soccer team in Europe. It was a quarterfinal match between Real Madrid and Chelsea. Real Madrid was leading 2-0 in the first half. Benzema, a French player, scored twice. In the second half, Chelsea quickly pulled one back, making the score 2-1. The game was going well until Chelsea goalkeeper Mendy made a fatal mistake, allowing Chelsea to score, making the score 3-1 in favor of Real Madrid. The next matches will be at Real Madrid's home field, with the score starting at 3-1, and Chelsea will need to win by three goals to advance to the semi-finals.]]> 2022-04-07 13:43:58 UTC https://padlet.com/iainsco/ListeningReadingLog/wish/2134616206 I watched a film called “pacific rim” which is about robots fighting with monsters. There are many special effects that can make people believe. I really like the heavy feeling that huge robot move slowly. That was I expected to imagine how should a robot look like when I was a child. Every robot has different appearance and internal structure, such as missile, sword, the weapon like electric saw and hard mental fist. The scene of robots fight monsters shocked me so that I can’t stand to stand to wait for the sequel. But unfortunately, it makes me very upset that the sequel much worse than the first one. In my opinion, The first one is always the most classic.

Belfort becomes very rich and appears on the cover of Forbes magazine under the title "The Wolf of Wall Street". As the FBI monitors Belfort's trading schemes, he invents new ways to cover his tracks and watch his fortune grow, but eventually he ends up in jail. It was very interesting for me to watch this story and I was surprised that such a thing actually happened.
