… you all know what it means when you hear my voice, right? It means that it’s Monday again. I know, we have to say goodbye to our awesome weekend and welcome another tiring week. Well, at least we have each other and new episodes everyday from VoiceTube pronunciation challenge to help us get through the week.

So why don’t we begin today with the question: what is your favorite kind of movie? Action, romance, horror, mystery ,or musical? Mine is comedy. After a long and tiring day, all I wanna do is lying back and watching something hilarious without thinking or using my brain at all.

In my opinion, films are one of the greatest inventions of all time. And a good movie not only entertains you but also teaches you about various lessons.

In today’s video, we’re gonna learn about how it all started, the beginning of these amazing [form of art]. The title is: Movies are Magic. Let’s jump right into our sentence of the day.

We have to go all the way back to the beginning because the creation of this cornerstone of modern entertainment was basically an accident.

creation [krɪˋeʃən] (n.) 創造；産生、創造物；作品
*The lack of trust towards the government led to the creation(產生) of a new political party(政黨).
* The creations(作品) by Michelangelo are beyond compare.

cornerstone [ˋkɔrnɚston] (n.) 基礎；根本；奠基石
* Communication is the cornerstone of a successful collaboration(合作).

modern [ˋmɑdɚn] (adj.) 現代的、新式的；前衛的
* The movie put a modern spin(元素) on well-known classic fairy tale.
fairy(仙子) + tale(故事) = 童話故事
*Thanks to the modern technology, we get to live very convenient lives.

entertain [ɛntɚˋten] (v.) 娛樂
* The crowd was entertained by the singer’s beautiful voice.

entertainment [ɛntɚˋtenmənt] (n.) 娛樂、娛樂節目，娛樂表演
* The musical is great family entertainment.
* I wonder what people do for entertainment in this small town.

all the way 完全地，自始至終地，一直

all the way to 直到（很高的層次或程度）
* I flew all the way to the New Zealand to visit an old friend.

to laugh all the way to the bank (以人們原先覺得白癡、愚蠢、好笑的方法)輕易發大財，輕鬆賺大錢
* Everyone thought his idea of streaming music(串流音樂) online was nonsense, but now he is laughing all the way to the bank.

So many amazing things come unexpectedly(非預期地), right?
This actually made me think of the movie that I watched the other day that I wanna share with you. It’s called Midnight in Paris. It’s written and directed by Woody Allen, and Owen Wilson and Rachel Anne McAdams starring in it.

The story is said in the romantic city of Paris, and it’s about a successful Hollywood screenwriter struggling to finish his first novel. He accidentally travels back in time and meets many great artists from the past. This helps his to learn how to face on confusions and passion. You guys should really watch it sometimes.

What is your favorite type of movie? Have you seen any good movie recently?

伍家輝ㄧ我們怎麼Love
怪都怪情歌電影和詩篇
天天都推薦摯愛與誓言
我想著多真心才能值回多一點
優先
不過一個他出現在身邊
龐大城市為何地轉天旋
那一刻幸福決定於對方第一眼
太危險
LOVE ~
我們傻得 不知怎麼LOVE 怎麼取捨
LOVE ~
我們傷得 不知怎麼了 怎麼快樂
LOVE ~ 如果不愛我
為何要來顛覆我生活 長長久久
YOU~ 如果不愛我
我或許淚也不會流
