My behavior began to change. I began to smile at people when passing them ina street. I started calling my kids and, to my surprise, they started calling me. I even tried to speak to my grandchildren over the phone once. I was even glad to listen to laughter from a 10-month-old granddaughter.

(10分)阅读理解Kitesurfing as a water sport began in the 1980s, but didn't get popular until the end of last century. It is also known as kiteboarding, and in some European countries as fly surfing. Kitesurfing works through wind power by using a large kite to pull a rider on the water at high speed.At first, kitesurfing was a difficult and dangerous sport. Now it is becoming easier and safer because of the safer kite design. For an able and strong person, kitesurfing can be a very fun, exciting sport, just like skating on the water with a feeling of flying. It has become more and more popular.Compared with other water sports, kitesurfing is easier to learn. A beginner can understand how to operate the kite with 5-10 hours of training.

Today, it seems that many of these traditional Chinese arts have disappeared.That is a pity, since these traditional art forms can offer a look into Chinese culture. In addition to shadow puppet shows and paper cutting, today we will take a look at three major art forms. Peking Opera (京剧)Praised as one of the national treasures of China, Peking opera put skillful singing, attractive acrobatics (杂技)colorful clothes, and moving storytelling together to create a stage experience unlike any other. Peking opera was very popular during the Qing dynasty, and now it is still kept as an art form throughout the whole country.Chinese Zither (古筝)The Chinese zither is a plucked musical string instrument (弦乐器)dating from the warring states period (战国时期). The musician presses the strings with the left hand, and plucks the strings with the right hand, usually with picks joined to the tips of the fingers, Even though the Chinese zither has been around for more than two thousand years, it has not lost its attraction. Modern musicians are finding ways to add the Chinese zither into rock, jazz, and even hip hop. Chinese CalligraphyCalligraphy refers to the way of writing. It has lasted for more than 2,000 years, and developed into five ways of writing, each with different techniques. Brush pens made from the finest animal hair are used as tools. Today, Chinese calligraphy is still a highly respected andpopular art form. Many Chinese school children are sent to learn traditional calligraphy.

When I use an app, I read what I am interested in. When I read a print newspaper, I find myself reading things I did not know I was interested in.Reading from a mobile phone is useful, but it is narrower than print. A newspaper offers broader vision. There is a good chance not only that you will come across unexpectedinformation, but that you will connect it to other things you have read.
