Hong Kong singer Sandy Lam won the final of “Singer 2017,” singing the song “Maybe Tomorrow” in the final episode of the show, broadcast live on Hunan TV last Saturday. The 51-year-old singer, backed up by pop diva Chang Hui-mei, better known as A-mei, sang a duet in perfect harmony, with their flawless chorus and high notes winning much praise from the audience.
From the Republic of Kazakhstan, 22-year-old singer Dimash Kudaibergen was the first runner-up in the singing contest. Taiwanese singers also had outstanding performances in the final show. Rock band “Lion,” led by Jam Hsiao, was the second runner-up, and singer Terry Lin won fifth place.
Hsiao said he was so nervous before the final show that he had a sensation of being unable to swallow his saliva. He explained that this was a kind of muscular symptom, adding that it would be no fun if the contest did not make him nervous.

A: Recently, I’ve been seeing mosquitoes flying around in front of my eyes. The doctor said it’s the “flying-mosquito disease.” B: Flying mosquitoes? What a strange name. A: They’re actually called “floaters” in English, meaning floating debris. When fibrous substances in the vitreous body inside the eyeballs increase, floaters can appear in the visual field. B: Oh my goodness. Can you get rid of them? A: According to ophthalmologist Horng Chi-ting’s research, taking the enzymes of certain fruits is likely to help reduce floaters.

In Taiwan, people can use a platform to rent a power washer for a weekend or share unused garage space for someone’s storage needs. These are examples of the sharing economy, a consumption model that has gained widespread adoption worldwide.

B: According to a study published in the “Applied Sciences” journal by Taiwanese ophthalmologist Horng Chi-ting, pineapple, papaya and fig supplements can improve symptoms. A: Pineapples are in season now, so you should munch on more of those to get rid of floaters. B: Not quite. Enzymes can be damaged by our stomach acid if we eat the fruit directly.
