Wu reaches peak 
 
由吴京主演的新片《攀登者》将于9月30日上映，该片以真实故事为背景改编。1960年，中国登山队首次从北坡登上珠穆朗玛峰，完成了人类历史上第一次从北坡登上世界第一高峰的壮举。该片生动再现了中国登山英雄的事迹。拍摄团队也挑战了恶劣的环境。吴京在一次采访中提到拍摄时自己患上了重感冒，还遭遇了高原反应。他表示，去体会当时登山队员的艰苦，感受他们如何心存敬畏见证最高峰很重要。

China’s top action star, Wu Jing, is going to conquer Qomolangma.

Wu stars in an upcoming film called The Climbers. It is based on the real-life expedition of four Chinese mountaineers in 1960, who were the world’s first to climb Qomolangma’s north side successfully. The film is expected to hit theaters on Sept 30.

The film vividly presents the heroic deeds of China’s mountaineering heroes. The crew braved the harsh environment while filming. Wu told journalists in an interview that he experienced a bad cold and altitude sickness during shooting. “It was important to understand how difficult it was for these mountaineers, and to appreciate how they behold the highest mountain with awe,” said the actor.

马上学：Deed 意为“行为，事迹”。Heroic deeds 意思是“英雄事迹”。Heroics也可指“英雄壮举”，但有时可表示危险或愚蠢的“逞英雄”行为。如：No heroics. Stay within the law.（别逞能，要遵纪守法）。

A much-anticipated new single by Chinese singer Jay Chou was released on Sept 16 and the internet immediately flipped out: The song’s video reached 300,000 views in 30 minutes on video-sharing website Youtube, and sold 2 million copies in its first hour, according to Oriental Daily.

It has been more than a year since the pop star’s last song, If You Don’t Love Me, It’s Fine. The new track, Won’t Cry, is a piano-driven song written by Chou and Vincent Fang. It features Chen Hsin-hung, the lead singer of Chinese band Mayday.

马上学：Anticipate是“期待”的意思。Much-anticipated是个常用词组，意为“非常期待的、万众瞩目的”。受瞩目还可以用come into the spotlight表达。“某一时刻最受瞩目的人”意为man of the hour。

C罗表示成名后很无聊
Ronaldo wants you to leave him alone


34岁的C罗已经是世界上最知名的足球运动员之一。不过最近他在接受英国独立电视台采访时则表示，成名后的生活很无聊。

C罗说他甚至不能带孩子去公园，因为害怕被球迷认出和围观。他表示像自己现在这样真的很无聊，如今渴望隐私，不希望家人出门就紧张，想要重获自由。

Cristiano Ronaldo says that fame has made his life boring. He wants to be "free again".

The 34-year-old is one of the most famous faces on the planet, having spent most of his career ranked among the world's top soccer players.

The fame that follows such success is too much for the forward. He can't even take his children to the park for fear of being mobbed by fans.

"Being me is boring," Ronaldo said in an interview with ITV.

"A part of it is fantastic. Being famous, first page of the newspaper and TV. But after 15 years, after all this time, I want some privacy," he said.

"In the last 10 years, my privacy has gone. I haven't been to the park with my kids.

If I go, people turn up and my kids are nervous, my girlfriend is nervous, I'm nervous.

"When you are in public, you cannot be yourself. It's boring. I want to be free again."

马上学：Mob可以表示“蜂拥而至”、“大举包围”，例：The stores are always mobbed on Saturdays.（通常在周六这些店铺经常人很多。）
