The non-profit(非营利) group says droughts(干旱)，wildfires and development projects played a part in the drop in the koala population. They are strongly advising the government to do more to protect the animal's environment.The group guesses the koala population has dropped to less than 58,000 this year from more than80,000 in 2018. The biggest decrease is in the state of New South Wales, where the number of koalas has droppedby 41 percent. Deborah Tabart, leader of the Australian Koala Foundation, called the dropbelieved to have as few as five or ten.Tabart said the country needs a koala protection law. She added, “What we worry about is places like western New South Wales where droughts have lasted for over ten years. Now, the effect is beginning to show up—river systems completely dry and red gum trees(红桉树)，which are the lifeblood of koalas,are dead.”The loss in New South Wales likely sped up after large forest areas were destroyed(毁坏) by wildfires in late 2019 and early 2020. Some of those areas already had no koalas. Land clearing by building developers and road builders has also destroyed the koala's environment.“I think everyo ne gets it, and we've got to change.But if those building-machines keep working, then I really fear for the koalas,”Tabart said.1.What did the group advise the government to do?A. Save koalas from dying out.B. Stop all development projects.C. Put out the wildfire immediately.D. Provide enough water for koalas.2.What does the underlined word“dramatic”in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Exciting.B. Surprising.C. Relaxing.D. Interesting.3.How does the writer tell us about koalas' situation in Paragraph 2?A. By listing numbers.B. By giving examples.C. By asking questions.D. By analyzing facts.4. Which of the following is TRUE according to Tabart?A. New South Wales is the only place they care about.B. The rivers and red gum trees are influenced by the koalas.C. Australia needs to make a law to protect the koalas.D. Everyone understands that building- machines should stop working.5.What's the main idea of the passage?A.

2024年中考英语新热点时文阅读—科普知识

2024年中考英语新热点时文阅读-科普知识01（2022秋·江苏宿迁·九年级统考期中）Fresh green grass. Hundreds of colorful wild flowers. Water running into little pools. Birds making their homes in boxes. The 9,500-square-metre Augustenborg Botanical Garden may look just like any other well-organized park, but there’s a difference. It lies on the roofs(屋顶) of industrial and office buildings in the city of Malmo in Sweden.Green roofs are not a new invention. And now they are getting popular again. The common roofs of a mode m city have endless black surfaces(表面) with no life or water. Perhaps that’s why a garden on a roof becomes such a perfect choice for more people.Green roofs are not just pretty. They also help to moderate the city temperature. The high temperatures on common roofs in summer can make top floor flats uncomfortably hot. What is more, they play a part in making the cities hotter than the countryside around them, causing the “urban heat-island effect”. On a green roof, however, with its plants and water, temperatures change only a little, as they do in a park. This can greatly cut the costs of heatingand cooling in the building below.Also, a green roof takes in rain water, and protects the city drainage system(排水系统). ________ And small animals and birds can make their homes on it. Thanks to this, the city may become part of nature, rather than something completely separate from it.While the cost of building such as roof can still be higher, it can be cheaper in the long term as a result of energy savings. And wouldn’t it be wonderful to be able to walk out into a garden high above the city’s noise and traffic, whether you’re at school or in an office or just at home in a ten-floor block?1．With the example of Augustenborg Botanical Garden, the writer wants to explain ________.A．what a green roof is like B．how wildlife is protectedC．what to do with a spare roof D．how to organize a good park2．The underlined word “moderate” in Paragraph 3 is the closest in meaning to “________”.A．raise B．check C．control D．record3．Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4?A．A common roof is noisy.B．A green roof is alive.C．A green roof stops pollution.D．A common roof increases the cost.4．The purpose of the passage is to ________.A．introduce the change of green roofs B．solve the problems with green roofsC．show the amazing beauty of green roofs D．describe the advantages(优点) of green roofs02（2023·辽宁朝阳·统考中考真题）Chinese researchers reached the top of Qomolangma on May 4, 2022. They set up the world’s highest automatic(自动的) weather station at an altitude(海拔) of 8,830 meters. This helps them to study the influences of climate change on the environment.It is the highest automatic weather station in the world now. It has taken the place of the station sitting at an altitude of 8,430 meters on the south side of the mountain, which is the second highest now. This allows Chinesescientists to directly collect data(数据) for the first time from the top of the world’s highest mountain.Collecting and studying data from Qomolangma is not easy. But the data will give valuable information about the condition of local glaciers(冰川) and mountain snow. It will also help scientists study and understand the global monsoon(季风) system, so experts can make proper decisions about climate change.Yao Tandong, a famous expert, said Chinese scientists had set up eight weather stations from 5,200 to 8,830 meters above sea level. Half of the stations were set up at an altitude higher than 7,000 meters. “Along with strong government support and hard work by scientists, China has become a global front-runner in fields such as climate change.” Yao said.5．What is the altitude of the highest automatic weather station?A．5,200 meters.B．7,000 meters.C．8,430 meters.D．8,830 meters.6．What does the underlined word “It” refer to(指代) in Paragraph 3?A．Reaching the top of Qomolangma.B．The influences of climate change.C．The data from Qomolangma.D．The highest automatic weather station.7．How many weather stations were set up at an altitude higher than 7,000 meters?A．Two.B．Four.C．Six.D．Eight.8．Which statement(陈述) is NOT right according to the passage?A．Chinese scientists can directly collect data from the top of Qomolangma now.B．It is hard to collect and study data from Qomolangma.C．The second highest weather station is on the north side of the mountain.D．China has made great achievements in fields such as climate change.9．In which part of a newspaper can we find the passage?A．Science.B．Sports.C．Travel.D．Health.03（2022秋·山东济宁·九年级统考期末）Music plays an important role in the lives of people all over the world. That is why many wonder what influences their tastes in music. Could your music list show something about your personality?One study by Heriot-Walt University offered a possible answer by an experiment. Here are the results it found: Pop Music. Fans of top 40 pop hits are likely to be outgoing and honest. While pop music lovers are hard-working and have high self-esteem(自尊), researchers suggest that they may be less creative and easy to get worried.Rap or Hip-Hop Music. People usually believe that rap lovers are more aggressive(好争斗的), but researchers have found no such connection. They say rap fans are likely to have high self-esteem and are usually outgoing.Rock or Heavy Metal Music. Although sometimes rock or heavy metal music seems aggressive, researchers found that fans of this style of music are usually quite gentle. They can be creative, but are often shy and have low self-esteem.Classical Music. Classical music lovers are typically shyer but also feel comfortable with themselves and the world around them. They are creative and have a good sense of self-esteem.Though personality alone does not explain musical preferences, this experiment helps you know yourself and others better.10．What’s the purpose of the study?A．To know what kind of music people like most.B．To tell people the importance of listening to music.C．To show people which kind of music they should listen to.D．To test the relationship between a person’s personality and his or her music list.11．How might a person’s personality be if he or she is a fan of pop music?A．Quiet and shy.B．Serious and strict.C．Friendly and polite.D．Outgoing and honest.12．What kind of music does Mrs. Green like listening to if she feels relaxed about the world around her?A．Pop music.B．Rock music.C．Classical music.D．Rap music.13．What’s the best title for the text?A．Music and hobby B．Music and personalityC．Fans and music D．Researchers and music04（2022秋·湖北襄阳·九年级统考期中）My blood type (血型) is AB, which only 7 percent of Chinese have. I always thought it made me special, even though I had no real reason to believe that. But in Japan, blood type is usedWe all like to know things about ourselves, and blood type is just another fun way to understand why we do some things.

If so, you’ve experienced “hangry (饿怒)” —some people get angry easily as they are hungry. The reason for this lies in what happens inside your body when it needs food.Everything you eat would be changed into different kinds of nutrients (营养物质) in your body. These nutrients would enter your blood and be passed to every part of your body and be used for creating energy. As time passes after your last meal, these nutrients in your blood drop. Also, your blood glucose (血糖) drops. Unlike other parts in your body, your brain totally depends on blood glucose to do its job. You’ve probably already noticed that simple things can become difficult when you are hungry and your blood glucose levels drop. You may find it hard to pay attention. For example, you may make silly mistakes in your study and homework. You might also have noticed that you can’t even speak clearly when you’re too hungry.Another thing that happens when you’re hungry is behaving impolitely and can’t control yourself, such as snapping at others. In that case, even though you may already try your best to avoid conflict (冲突) with important friends, you may still be too angry to control yourself when you are staying with the people you are most relaxed with. That’s why you may find yourself being impatient with your parents or friends.So what should we do to avoid being hangry? The easiest way is to eat something before you get too hungry. The best choice is to have some nutrient - rich and natural foods that help deal with hunger quickly and can be kept in our body as long as possible, but not fast food. The final way is to suggest that difficult situations should be dealt with after a meal, not before.17．When does “hangry” usually happen?A．When the body needs food.B．When nutrients enter your body.C．When the blood glucose levels drop.D．When it’s hard for you to pay attention.18．What does the underlined words “snapping at” mean in Chinese?A．称赞B．呵斥C．嘲笑D．帮助19．Which paragraphs tell the influence of being hangry?A．①②B．②③C．③④D．④⑤20．Which is one of the ways to deal with hunger?A．Eat something after you get too hungry.B．Stay with people you are most relaxed with.C．Deal with difficult situations after meals.D．Eat a little junk food before you are hungry.21．Who is the text written for?A．Doctors.B．Teachers.C．Parent.D．Students.06（2022秋·山东菏泽·九年级统考期中）Have you ever thought about why you are the way you are? And what does your personality（性格）connect with? Recent research has showed that the position（位置）in which we are born in our family plays a very important role in forming personality.The eldest childBeing the only child, the eldest enjoys all their parents’ attention. However, new parents usually expect to see their child do well. And the eldest child tries to meet these expectations. As a result, the eldest children are usuallypolite and traditional. The problems come with the birth of another child. Suddenly the attention they’re used to receiving becomes weaker. Then, they don’t feel safe and will try to do all they can to make their parents happy.The second childThe second child has no experience of life without a brother or sister, so they never know how their brothers or sisters feel when they suddenly have to share the attention. The second children are often more outgoing and always looking for ways to get attention. One of the most common ways to achieve this is by making people laugh and the second children are often the jokers of the family. Again, problems can appear when another baby arrives. Suddenly, the second child becomes the middle child and may lose a clear sense（意识）of where they are.The third childWith the birth of their third baby, parents will often feel this is their last chance to bring up a child. This means the youngest child, more often than not, is spoilt（溺爱）with attention and love. This can lead them to be very self-centered, believing that the world moves around them. They are always treated as the “baby” of the family so they don’t do as well as they could do. They like doing things in unexpected ways, so they are also likely to be creative. 22．What influences people’s personality according to the text?A．Birth place.B．Birth weight.C．Birth order.23．What does the underlined word “they” refer to in the text?A．The eldest children.B．The second children.C．The parents.24．Compared to the first child, the second child is _________ according to the text.A．more polite and traditionalB．more humorous and outgoingC．more creative and confident25．According to the text, if Tom thinks mainly about himself and always has new ideas, he might be _________.A．the eldest child B．the second child C．the third child07（2022秋·山东菏泽·九年级统考期中）It is said that tea can improve creative power(力量) of the literary(文学的) artists in ancient China.According to Lu Yu’s Cha Jing, tea-drinking in China can be traced back(追溯) to the Zhou Dynasty—tea was discovered by Shen Nong and became popular as a drink in the State of Lu because of Zhou Gong.Tea-drinking in China has a long history of four thousand years. As the legend(传说) has it, Shen Nong tasted hundreds of wild plants in order to prevent people from eating the poisonous plants. It is said that he was once poisoned but was saved by eating some leaves of an evergreen(常青的) plant with white flowers. Later, people called the leaves that saved his life “cha”.In modern times, people still keep tea-drinking as one of their everyday activities. According to the study, tea can also influence some modern illnesses. To those who have to work with computers for a long time, drinking tea can help them to recreate a new balance(平衡) in their bodies. And to those old people, drinking tea is also a good way to make them have a longer life.26．Tea-drinking in China can be traced back to ________.A．the Zhou Dynasty B．the Xia Dynasty C．the Tang DynastyA．供饮用的B．美味的C．有毒的28．What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us?A．The birth of tea.B．Tea became popular.C．Shen Nong was once poisoned.29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Tea can improve creative power of the computer workers in ancient China.B．Tea became popular as a drink in the State of Lu because of Zhou Gong.C．People don’t keep tea-drinking as one of their everyday activities.30．What is the main idea of this passage?A．The legend of Shen Nong.B．The history of tea-drinking in China.C．Tea can influence some modern illnesses.参考答案：1．A 2．C 3．B 4．D【导语】本文讲述介绍了绿色屋顶，并介绍了其好处。

Turn right!” In the information technology (IT) class, Zhang Ruixuan was controlling a robot to move around.“This is part of our artificial intelligence (AI) courses,” said the 10th grader from Beijing 101 Middle School. The school provides AI classes to both junior and senior high school students. Apart from compulsory (必修的) courses that teach basic knowledge, there are also optional (选修的) courses if students want to learn more.“This semester in our compulsory class, we have learned coding (编程) through a programming language called Python,” said Zhang. Using Python to code is a basic skill for training AI models. In recent years, Python has been tested in high school graduation exams in places like Beijing, Jiangsu and Anhui.In fact, having AI education in schools has become a growing trend (趋势) in many places, with Zhejiang province being atypical example. In 2020, Zhejiang added AI education into textbooks from Grade 5 in primary school all the way to senior high. In the city of Wenzhou, the government is planning to build 1, 000 AI experimental schools by 2025.“With the development of technology, our textbooks have been changing all the time,” said Shang Yin, an IT teacher from Beijing 101 Middle School. “From typing to using Word and Excel, and then today’s coding and AI, the courses are keeping up with the times and teaching students necessary skills.” In the future, there will be more jobs where AI knowledge is required.

In March, the small city received about 4.8 million tourists. It is certainly not the only city that offers barbecue, or even the most famous one, but its seemingly sudden fame was steps in the making.Zhou Maosong, president of the Zibo Tourism Promotion Association said the popularity started from the crowd-gathering effect of cultural and tourism activities including a music festival. Then famous people tasted the barbecue and put their experiences online attracting young people, which led to a wave of students from neighbouring cities visiting Zibo. What better way to lure adventurous and hungry college students other than “tasty barbecue that makes you full within only 50 yuan!” However, Zibo did not fall into the trap (陷阱) of easy fame that dies fast where sellers cheat buyers on price and quality for the most profit (盈利) in the shortest time. A blogger on Douyin took an electronic scale (电子秤) to ten barbecue stands in Ziboto test if he would be offered less food. It turned out that not a single one was caught short of weight and some owners even offered him local snacks for free. Local people’s honest and friendly behaviour touched even more people online and again lifted the city’s popularity.Zibo’s successful story has inspired governments in other parts of the country to find their ways of supporting local businesses.19．What does the underlined word “lure” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Attract.B．Challenge.C．Follow.D．Organize.20．What are the other reasons for Zibo’s popularity besides the crowd-gathering effect?①Famous people’s recommendation.②Barbecue at low prices.③Support from neighbouring cities.④Local people’s kindness.A．①②③B．②③④C．①②④D．①③④21．Where is the passage probably taken from?A．A science fiction.B．A travel guide.C．A food advertisement.D．A news report.06（2023·山东日照·日照市新营中学校考三模）The common problem of myopia (近视) among students has been a big challenge for China to deal with for many years. According to reports, about 35.6 percent of primary school students and nearly 81 percent of senior high school students are nearsighted (近视的) in China.Considering this background, Wantang Primary School in Yunnan province really stands out. This is because none of the students at this school suffer from myopia. Parents, teachers and eye experts began discussing whether the school’s experience can be used to tackle the rising level of myopia across China.Yang Chenhao is a doctor at the Children’s Hospital of Fudan University. He said that while the school is a special case, some of its methods are highly worth learning, such as keeping children away from mobile phones and getting them outdoors more often.Yang Qingyi is a teacher at the school, which has 536 students. He said that all children are required to go outside during class breaks. “Even for quiet kids, we encourage them to take a walk outside,” he said. When the three sports teachers there are busy, teachers of other subjects will work as trainers to teach basketball and table tennis.“If there is one piece of advice that we can share on achieving zero myopia, I would say large amounts of outdoor activities,” said Sun Fubiao, the primary school’s headmaster. Sun said that a number of his students’ parents are working in other areas, so the school has fixed six public phones while not allowing use of personal mobile phones.“In teacher-parent WeChat groups, we often remind parents to pay attention to kids’ eye health when they are at home for weekends or vacations,” he added.22．How is the first paragraph organized?A．By listing numbers.B．By telling stories.C．By giving examples.D．By comparing facts.23．What does the underlined word “tackle” probably mean in Chinese?A．解释B．应对C．提升D．保持24．What can we know from Yang Chenhao’s words?A．Doctors should work with primary schools.B．Wantang Primary School is worth learning in some ways.C．Children should not use a mobile phone.D．Parents should pay more attention to their kids.25．What is the most important way to achieve zero myopia according to Sun Fubiao?A．Less time of learning at school.B．Fixing enough public phones.C．Much time of outside activities.D．Working with kids’ parents.参考答案：1．B 2．C 3．C 4．B【导语】本文主要介绍了美团推出的无人机送餐服务，包括其操作流程、研发过程及发展前景。

Teachers teach students how to use the writing brush 5 and spread traditional Chinese culture. The soft brush can create strong and powerful lines on paper. But that only comes through 6 of hard work. If you want to be an excellent writing artist and be highly praised by others, you need to keep practicing for a 7 time every day.For many Chinese artists, the brush is more than a writing tool. “It seems in my blood. 8 I pick up the writing brush, suddenly my thoughts, ideas and even stories build a relationship with the brush,” said Liu Qinghe, 9 famous Chinese artist.

It is a fantastic geographical and cultural record of the pre-Qin China as well as a collection of Chinese mythology (The exact writer of the book and the time it was written are still uncertain. It was once thought that mythical characters such as Yu the Great or Boyi wrote the book. However, the general agreement among modern scholars ( ) is that the book was not written at a single time by a single writer, but rather by numerous people from the period of the Warring States to the beginning of the Han dynasty.All in all, Shan Hai Jing talks about more than 550 mountains, 300 waterways and 400 mythical creatures. It is made up of 31,000 Chinese characters more or less. The whole collection is divided into 18 parts. Myths such as the Great Pangu, Nuwa, and Kua Fu are included in the book. These are stories of creation and the beginning of mankind. These stories are now being spread from one generation ( to another in China.There is nothing more attractive in Shan Hai Jing than the mysterious monsters( ) described in it. For example, there is a kind of wild animal in Qingqiu Mountain. It looks like a fox but has nine tails. Its cry is similar to the cry of a baby. If you eat its meat, you will not be harmed by bad spirits. These monsters give readers a look at the ancients’ u nderstanding and imagination of some unknown things.As a record of ancient Chinese mythology, Shan Hai Jing is undoubtedly attractive. It is an encyclopedia () that can show ancient social life.1. According to the passage, Shan Hai Jing . A. was set up by Pangu and Nuwa B. was written by Yu the Great and Boyi C. provides information about the ancients D. has a long history of about 1500 years2.

B. Attractive and knowledgeable. C. Interesting and real.D. Exciting but useless.“Family” weights a lot in Chinese. We can see theme of “family” in many traditional festivals, for instance, Lunar New Year, the Double Ninth Festival, as also the Mid-Autumn Festival. When is the best time for us to enjoy the bright and full moon? Of course, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, one of the most important festivals in China. We look at the moon, eat moon cakes, and get together with our families.The moon, the key part of the festival, is special to most Chinese people. We enjoy and admire it. We use the round moon to describe reunion, that is, get together. Our respect of the moon dates back to ancient times. There is the legend of Chang’e flying to the moon—the most famous story about the moon. Many Chinese poets connect the moon with homesickness. For example, “Beside my bed a pool of light. Is it hoarfrost on the ground?” from Jing Ye Si (Thoughts in the Silent Night) by Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai. Today, the moon is still important to Chinese people. The Miao minority ( ) in Guizhou province has a special custom. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, young people dance under the moon to find their other half.However, Western people see the moon differently. In some stories, the full moon is somewhat frightened to people. The most well-known story is the werewolf. A werewolf usually looks like a human, but changes into a wolf-like creature when there is a full moon. Also, if someone is very excited or even crazy about something, other may joke, “it must be a full moon.”1.What festival is the passage mainly about?A.The Mid-Autumn Festival.B.Lunar New Year.C.The Double Ninth Festival.2.What’s the Chinese meaning of the underlined word “reunion” in the passage?A.

Some of the lanterns are small, and others are really big. Some look like beautiful flowers and lovely animals.The lanterns are made of different materials. There are plastic ( ) lanterns, silk lanterns, and paper lanterns. While making lanterns, people usually write riddles ( ) on them. During the Lantern Festival, people go outside to have a look at the lanterns and guess the riddles on them. Usually, people c an get a prize as long as they give the right answer. People together with their family walk happily in the crowded streets, looking at many kinds of amazing lanterns.

01（24-25九年级上·海南海口·期中）You must have heard of “city bu city” (meaning city or not city), an Internet buzzword (流行语) created by an American blogger (博主) Baobaoxiong. It’s used to ask if a place is like a big, modern city.Millions of foreigners like Baobaoxiong are visiting China and posting their travel videos. The visa-free transit policy (过境免签政策) plays an important role in it. Travelers from 54 countries can stay in China for up to six days without a visa (签证) as long as they have a travel document and a connecting ticket to leave.The visa-free transit policy started in 2013. At that time, travelers could only stay for 72 hours in seven big cities in China. Now, travelers can stay for 144 hours in 41 places across 19 provinces. It has attracted more and more travelers to China. In the first three months of this year, over 1.98 million foreigners came to China through visa-free policies.________ Through this policy, more and more people get to see the real China.“This is the whole reason why we decided to come to China—we wanted to see exactly what it’s like for ourselves,” said Irish YouTuber Luke in his online video. He thought Chengdu was “fantastic, beautiful and modern”, totally different from what he had heard about China from Western media.Yuyuantantian, a Chinese blogger, studied 100 China travel videos made by foreigners. It found foreigners used to visit famous places like the Great Wall and the Summer Palace. But now they prefer experiencing everyday activities like shopping at markets, riding shared bikes and joining square dancing in parks. These activities give foreigners a closer look at everyday life in China.1．What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A．A Chinese blogger created “city bu city” .B．“City bu city” is very popular on the Internet.C．A “city” place means the place is not modern.2．How does the writer develop his idea in Paragraph 3?A．By telling stories.B．By giving examples.C．By listing numbers.3．In Paragraph 4, which one is the best to fill in the blank of ________?A．Seeing is believing.B．Practice makes perfect.C．Where there is a will, there is a way.4．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．A smaller number of foreigners are visiting China now.B．Foreigners can stay in China longer without a document.C．Foreign travelers are becoming more interested in everyday life in China.5．What is the main idea of the passage?A．The development of Chinese cities.B．The experiences of foreign travelers in China.C．The influence (影响) of the visa-free transit policy.【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．C 5．C【导语】本文通过介绍“city不city”这一网络流行语，引出了中国过境免签政策的影响。

A 阅读理解Folke Borgstrom, a 18-year-old from Sweden, bought a jade (玉) necklace in Beijing. He came to China to take part in the 16th “Chinese Bridge” Chinese Proficiency Competition for Foreign Secondary School Students in Beijing and Yunnan from Oct 16 to Oct 30.Borgstrom knew about jade from a Chinese costume drama. “A main character looks so noble (高贵的) and cool with jade,” Borgstrom said. After doing some online research on jade, he found out that it’s highly valued in Chinese culture. “As a symbol of virtue, jade is believed to have the power to bring good fortune,” Borgstrom added. He became fascinated with Chinese culture through the window of Chinese costume drama.When it comes to promoting Chinese culture internationally, we often think of traditional ways, like setting up cultural exchange programs. However, Chinese pop culture, such as Chinese costume drama, has become a growing vehicle for cultural transmission.Chulkyu Lee from South Korea, 16, likes to browse TikTok for short videos featuring Chinese pop culture. Recently, he put the Chinese TikTok hit pop music track My Surname is Shi (《我姓石》) on repeat.“Through TikTok, I’ve also seen many real-life moments recorded by ordinary Chinese people, which lets me know more about the daily lives of Chinese people and the real China,” said Lee.Yang Yao, a program designer who has worked in international broadcasting for eight years with Yunnan Media Group, believes that more creative ways for spreading Chinese culture should be adopted. He takes Japan and South Korea as examples of this. “You may not know the meaning of Japanese samurai (武士), but anime (日本动漫) lets you gradually accept concepts like ninjas (忍者) in Japanese culture. You may not specialize in the history of the Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392, 高丽王朝), but through South Korean dramas, you come to understand its cuisine like kimchi (韩国泡菜),” said Yang. China’s culture can go abroad in the similar way, said Yang.1. Why does the writer use Borgstrom’s story?A. To show the importance of the “Chinese Bridge” program.B.

B 阅读理解The Norwegian novelist, poet and playwright Jon Fosse was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature on Oct 5, “for his innovative plays and prose (散文) which give voice to the unsayable,” in the words of the prize committee.Born in 1959 in Haugesund, Fosse grew up on a small farm in western Norway. He started writing poems and stories at the age of 12. But it was his plays that made him famous. Now, his 40-some plays have been published.

In 2010, Fosse wonthe International Ibsen Award. The prize committee commented, “Like all important writers of drama, Fosse forces the theater and its audiences to think in new ways.
