Go, commonly known in China as weiqi. is a board game for two players. To win, one player must use black or white playing pieces, named stones, to surround （包围） more areas.
The game was invented in China more than 2，500 years ago. It's one of the four Chinese traditional fine arts, along with playing guqin, writing and painting, so it owns a wide fan base in China. Now it is also popular in other parts of the world.
In Germany. the Berlin Go Association （协会） has worked together with the China Cultural Center to host The China Cup, which sees about 50 to 100 players each year. As the cooperation（合作） between China and Germany deepens, many Go training courses are offered. and sometimes professional players from China are invited to give talks to German Go lovers.
Andreas Urban, the chairman（主席） of Berlin Go Association, discovered a book on Go accidentally. "I tried to understand the rules, but I couldn't." said Urban. Schreiber, the vice chairman, was introduced to the game 16 years ago by a classmate. "The first time I played Go. I even couldn't understand the rules, " he said. But both of them found the game more and more interesting after practice. "I advise children to learn Go. They can learn that there is always someone stronger and it's OK to lose. They can also learn how to improve from their mistakes and say tomorrow will be better than today," said Schreiber.
To the experienced players, Go can be very addictive（使人入迷的）, as it is not just for fun, but also has a deeper cultural ground. When two players meet on the Go board, they follow the same rules, but may carry completely different methods. One of the best ways to improve is to play against someone who's stronger, as well as from different cultural backgrounds. This kind of cross﹣cultural communication helps the development of Go.

The Chinese youth are quick to accept products (产品) based on traditional and popular culture. This time, some young students got a chance to design such products by themselves.
In a college design competition named “The Heart of Beijing — Young Interesting You”, players were asked to make their own designs to spread Beijing’s culture, such as the Temple of Heaven, Bell Tower and Drum Tower. Thousands of students handed in their designs.
Li Weiyu won the competition. She was a student who graduated from Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology. “I designed several sets of jewellery. In my work, I mixed the elements (元素) of traditional culture with people’s preferences (偏好) in modern life, which I thought most players were doing. I didn’t simply put the elements together, but chose the parts that were symbols of culture, like the wings of a kite shaped like a Chinese swallow. I thought they were really pretty and special,” she said.
Lu Xiaoyin, leader of Perfect World Games, said the meaning behind hosting the competition was getting young people to realize that they had a duty to protect Chinese traditional culture.
“Chinese traditional culture is rich and has a lasting influence. But many young people don’t think they have a relationship with it. So it is very important to create products that will attract younger people, making them understand it easily. This will create interest for them and encourage them to carry the culture forward,” said Lu.
The crash between traditional and popular culture is opening up thousands of years of Chinese history in creative and unusual ways. And the work includes the creative ideas of these young people, who are giving fresh meaning to the saying “Everything old is new again”.
31. What made Li Weiyu’s product different from the others’
A. She simply put the elements together.
B. She added some symbols of culture to her work.
C. She handed in her designs earlier than the others.
D. She designed a Chinese swallow in the competition.

A. make the Chinese youth accept new products
B. protect and spread Chinese traditional culture
C. know if students can create products by themselves
D. let people realize the importance of the youth’s works
33. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Chinese swallows. B. The wings of a kite.
C. Some sets of jewellery. D. Some symbols of culture.
34. In Paragraph 5, Lu Xiaoyin advised people to ________.
A. mix old things with new ones
B. make all old things become new
C. help more young people love traditional culture
D. carry the culture forward by selling new products

A （2021年山东烟台中考）
Go, commonly known in China as weiqi. is a board game for two players. To win, one player must use black or white playing pieces, named stones, to surround （包围） more areas.
The game was invented in China more than 2，500 years ago. It's one of the four Chinese traditional fine arts, along with playing guqin, writing and painting, so it owns a wide fan base in China. Now it is also popular in other parts of the world.
In Germany. the Berlin Go Association （协会） has worked together with the China Cultural Center to host The China Cup, which sees about 50 to 100 players each year. As the cooperation（合作） between China and Germany deepens, many Go training courses are offered. and sometimes professional players from China are invited to give talks to German Go lovers.
Andreas Urban, the chairman（主席） of Berlin Go Association, discovered a book on Go accidentally. "I tried to understand the rules, but I couldn't." said Urban. Schreiber, the vice chairman, was introduced to the game 16 years ago by a classmate. "The first time I played Go. I even couldn't understand the rules, " he said. But both of them found the game more and more interesting after practice. "I advise children to learn Go. They can learn that there is always someone stronger and it's OK to lose. They can also learn how to improve from their mistakes and say tomorrow will be better than today," said Schreiber.
To the experienced players, Go can be very addictive（使人入迷的）, as it is not just for fun, but also has a deeper cultural ground. When two players meet on the Go board, they follow the same rules, but may carry completely different methods. One of the best ways to improve is to play against someone who's stronger, as well as from different cultural backgrounds. This kind of cross﹣cultural communication helps the development of Go.

The Chinese youth are quick to accept products (产品) based on traditional and popular culture. This time, some young students got a chance to design such products by themselves.
In a college design competition named “The Heart of Beijing — Young Interesting You”, players were asked to make their own designs to spread Beijing’s culture, such as the Temple of Heaven, Bell Tower and Drum Tower. Thousands of students handed in their designs.
Li Weiyu won the competition. She was a student who graduated from Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology. “I designed several sets of jewellery. In my work, I mixed the elements (元素) of traditional culture with people’s preferences (偏好) in modern life, which I thought most players were doing. I didn’t simply put the elements together, but chose the parts that were symbols of culture, like the wings of a kite shaped like a Chinese swallow. I thought they were really pretty and special,” she said.
Lu Xiaoyin, leader of Perfect World Games, said the meaning behind hosting the competition was getting young people to realize that they had a duty to protect Chinese traditional culture.
“Chinese traditional culture is rich and has a lasting influence. But many young people don’t think they have a relationship with it. So it is very important to create products that will attract younger people, making them understand it easily. This will create interest for them and encourage them to carry the culture forward,” said Lu.
The crash between traditional and popular culture is opening up thousands of years of Chinese history in creative and unusual ways. And the work includes the creative ideas of these young people, who are giving fresh meaning to the saying “Everything old is new again”.
