Any introduction to Peking Opera would not be complete without telling of Mei Lanfang. During his

stage life, he combined the traditions of the past with his own creations, shaping a style of his own and

giving birth to “The Mei Lanfang School”. He was also the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to an

overseas audience, making it popular to the world.

Mei Lanfang began his stage life at the age of 8. His teacher said he showed little hope because of his

boring eyes. To improve this, he exercised them day after day. Thanks to his efforts, he managed to change

his dull eyes into a pair of bright and expressive eyes and win national fame before the age of 20.

In over 50 years on the stage, Mei Lanfang played no less than 100 different characters in the

performance. He also wrote many new plays, designing the dances himself. The many dances he created

form part of the great legacy that he left to Peking Opera.

In 1930, Mei Lanfang started on a successful US tour. There his brilliant performances impressed the

audience, making them realize that Peking Opera was a theatrical form of great value.

24．Mei Lanfang was the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to ________.

A．China B．audience C．the world D．schools

25．How long did it take Mei Lanfang to exercise his eyes into bright and expressive?

A．About 8 years. B．About 10 years. C．About 12 years. D．About 14 years.

26．What is the meaning of the underlined word “legacy” in paragraph 3?

A．Someone well known at over the world.

B．Something of little importance.

C．Something traditional mixed with modern dances.

D．Something valuable passed down from generation to generation.

27．What is the main idea of the passage?

A．The history of Peking Opera.

B．Mei Lanfang’s early stage life.

C．The performance of Peking Opera by Mei Lanfang.

D．Mei Lanfang’s great contributions to Peking Opera.

Almost all calligraphy( 书法 ) lovers agree that writing characters with a brush and ink on straw paper

offers a way to communicate with not only history and culture, but also oneself. But now Chinese

character handwriting is under threat from computers and mobile phones.

A college graduate looking for a job was reportedly refused by a company because he wrote 24 Chinese

characters incorrectly in a 400-character handwritten resume（简历）. A survey by HorizonKey, covering

people from 12 major cities in China, found that nearly one third of those interviewed often experience

“character amnesia(遗忘)”, with 94 percent saying this is a problem for them.

The main reason is that most Chinese rely too much on the pinyin-based Chinese language input

method, which is replacing the tradition of writing characters stroke( 笔画) by stroke. The software will

conveniently choose the right characters according to the context or word frequency（频率）, as there are

dozens of characters with the same pronunciation in Chinese.

The number of electronic devices in the classroom is thought to be another reason why students are

easily satisfied with just a poor knowledge of the Chinese language and characters. It is quicker to look up

a character in an electronic dictionary, but traditional printed dictionaries offer more detailed information

on the usage and meaning of the characters. Students pay more attention to remembering a character’s

pronunciation, but not the other knowledge related to it, which e-dictionaries hardly provide.

Another worry is the “pollution” of Chinese characters by Internet language. Young people regard using

Internet language as cool and fashionable. After they learn to use these expressions, they often include

them in their writing.

4. With the example of a college graduate, the author shows ________.

A. that practicing can improve writing

B. why certain people are poor writers

C. that there are differences in students’ writing

D. that Chinese character handwriting is in great danger

5. By saying “...those interviewed often experience ‘character amnesia’ ”, the writer means those

interviewed ________.

A. are not good at handwriting B. can’t write characters correctly.

C. show no interest in handwriting D. find jobs much more difficultly

6. What phenomenon is described in Paragraph 4?

A. Dependence on electronic devices.

B. Advantages of electronic dictionaries.

C. Mastery of knowledge of the characters.

D. Disadvantages of published dictionaries.

7.What’s the writer’s attitude towards the Internet language?

A. Supportive . B. Uncaring C. Negative . D. Friendly.

A new study suggests that long periods in space can cause the human heart to shrink(缩小). The study

—by a team of American researchers—comes as the U.S. makes plans to build a long-term base on the

moon and prepares to send astronauts to Mars.

Part of the study was based on the experiences of the retired astronaut Scott Kelly. The U. S. space

agency NASA says that during his career, Kelly spent more time in space than any other American

astronaut. One of Kelly's stays aboard the International Space Station(ISS) lasted 340 days. Researchers

from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center(UT Southwestern) in Dallas collected and

analyzed the physical data during Kelly's long stay aboard the ISS. The goal was to learn the effects of

weightlessness on heart health and performance. The team found that during Kelly's stay in space, the left

ventricle(心室) of his heart shrank about 0.74 grams per week.

Dr. Benjamin Levine is a professor at UT Southwestern. He was the leader of the research. In a

statement, he explained that because of the conditions in space, the heart does not have to work as hard to

pump( 输送 ) blood uphill from the feet. Over time, this can cause shrinkage. In an effort to keep their

hearts and bodies healthy in space, astronauts are required to perform different kinds of exercises

throughout their stay.

Decrease in heart size are also seen in patients who spend long periods in bed because they are lying flat

and the heart does not have to work as hard to pump. A second part of the study examined data from a

long-distance swimmer who spent nearly a year trying to cross the Pacific Ocean. The swimmer, Benoit

Lecomte, was chosen because he swam more than 2,800 kilometers over 159days. Levine says long-

distance swimming has similar effects on weightlessness. The study showed that during Lecomte's swim,

his left heart ventricle shrank about 0.72 grams per week.

32. How did the researchers carry out their study?

A. By interviewing astronauts. B. By examining collected information.

C. By experimenting aboard the ISS. D. By comparing people in different fields.

33. What are astronauts asked to do to keep their hearts fit in space?

A. Do various exercises. B. Get regular blood tests.

C. Stay in space for less time. D. Stand on their heads sometimes.

34. Whose heart may not probably shrink according to the text?

A. A patient spending a long time in bed. B. An astronaut traveling in space for long.

C. A long-distance professional swimmer. D. A well-trained marathon runner.

35. What can be the best title for the text?
