24、 In 1996, film director Roland Emmerich destroyed the White House-on camera. That was for his movie Independence Day, in which space aliens invaded Washington D.C.
Emmerich is blowing up Washington again in his new movie, White House Down. But this time the bad guys are terrorists.
White House Down is an action movie, but it also has an emotional side. Between the explosions and other special effects, the film deals with the relationship between the hero and his daughter.
The hero is John Cale, a soldier who served in Afghanistan. He goes to the White House for a job interview for the Secret Service. When a terrorist bomb goes off at the Capitol, the White House goes on lockdown. John is still inside with his daughter Emily. They get separated during all the danger and disorder. John has to save his daughter – and ,of course, the president.
Actor Channing Tatum plays John Cale. He needed to be in good shape for the movie, since he was to perform difficult physical scenes. The actor was already known for having a good looking body. Last year, People magazine named Channing Tatum the “Sexiest Man Alive.”
Actor and singer Jamie Foxx plays the President of the United States, James Sawyer. Jamie Foxx says his character is not modeled after President Obama although the character is African-American.
Roland Emmerich says he wants his film to be like the action movies of the 80s and 90s. Its explores the serious theme of American national security. But it’s also pure entertainment.

26、I am a karate (空手道) player. I still remember my first karate competition. Like other players, I was very excited about my event. I watched every player’s techniques (技巧) so that I could carefully avoid their moves.

27、 Akuapem is in the eastern part of Ghana. The sun there shines all the time. The local people are very friendly and hospitable(好客的). Now let’s have a look at how Akuapem people receive a visitor.
A visitor is often welcomed warmly in a family of Akuapem. After the visitor is welcomed into the house, he is offered a seat and water at the very beginning, because the host assumes that the visitor must have come from a very long journey and need water. If there is a group of visitors, the host will greet the visitors from right to left. And the host shakes only with his right hand, because Akuapem people think the left hand is not clean.
Next, the visitor is asked how his journey was and why he has come. While the conversation is going on, the wife and the children, especially girls, are preparing food for the visitor. The visitor can choose his favorite food. After the visitor finishes eating, the host and the visitor go on with their conversation. Usually this is short one because the visitor is getting ready to say goodbye.
When the visitor is leaving, he is often given some food. He is also accompanied(陪伴) by one of the children to the nearest station. The child who accompanies the visitor will not come back home until the visitor leaves safely.
