Boris, a foreign student at Communication University of China, often shares his experiences of Chinese culture on his vlog (视频博客) .
In one video, for example, Boris shared how he had learned the Chinese word dongxi. He translated each part separately into “east west”. And he introduced one theory (说法) about how dongxi came to mean “things”. He told people that all marketplaces in ancient Chinese cities were set up along a single road that ran from east to west. So when you would say “qumai dongxi”, you'd be saying, “I'm going to buy things. ”
Some other videos show his reading Chinese poems and performing (表演) kung fu in traditional Chinese costume, which are quite welcome among his 40, 000 followers.
“Many of my followers are learning Chinese, ” Boris said. “But sadly, they know little about Chinese culture and the country. ”
Like many foreigners, Boris once believed that all Chinese could perform kung fu, flying onto roofs and walking over walls. He thought the country was not that developed. But after he got a scholarship (奖学金) to study in China in 2019, his view changed. “China has entered a new period, but many people's impressions of China are still stuck in the 1970s, ” Boris said. “That's why I started to shoot vlogs to share Chinese culture in 2019. ”
Until now, Boris has posted more than 40 Chinese culture vlogs online. But making these vlogs is not easy. Take reading the poem Second Farewell to Cambridge by Xu Zhimo as an example.
“I can understand and read every word in the poem, ” Boris said. “But to touch readers, I need to use proper feelings while reading. ” So he needed to look for much background information and make his feelings suit each part of the poem.
Though shooting these vlogs takes lots of time, the young man feels happy that his vlogs have encouraged many people. Boris said that he wanted to continue bridging the differences between two cultures. “This goal may not be achieved easily, but I will try my best to do my part. ”
25. Through the vlogs, Boris mainly wants to ____.
A. teach foreigners Chinese
B. introduce a Chinese university
C. sell Chinese books
D. share his experiences in China
26. Boris learned the Chinese word dongxi by ____.
A. translating it as a whole
B. knowing its cultural background
C. making up some sentences
D. comparing it with similar words
27. What encouraged Boris to shoot vlogs
A. His love for Chinese poems.
B. His wish to show the real China.
C. His interest in Chinese culture.
D. His dream to be a big vlogger.
28. The passage is probably written to ____.
A. say yes to Boris's actions
B. build bridges by making vlogs
C. call for more help
D. achieve a common goal

五、回答问题(共4小题, 每小题2分, 共8分)
Hi, Tom,
Thanks for your message and I am glad that you wrote to me for ideas.
I remember when I was learning English, I felt uncomfortable about speaking. I could remember lots of words and knew grammar rules, but speaking was difficult. I now feel a lot more confident about speaking, so here are some ideas that I have taken from my own experience.
Don't worry about making mistakes. Other people will still know your meaning and they probably won't notice your mistakes.
Use every chance you get to speak. For example, it's a good idea to use only English in class and not to speak to your classmates in your own language. At home, you should also try practicing new words and grammar you learnt in class.
Think about extra speaking practice outside the classroom. You can join a conversation group, such as the chat groups in the study centre. They are free to join.
Practice speaking online. There are lots of websites where you can communicate with people from all around the world.
I hope this helps you and please come to me if you have other problems.
Eliza

Dear younger sisters and brothers,
As we all know, English is used very widely in the world. How can we learn it well Here are my suggestions.
First, we should often listen to the tapes, English songs and programs. Watching English movies is also helpful to us. Second, we should speak English in class as much as possible. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. The more you speak, the fewer mistakes you'll make. We'd better join the English club and practice with others. Third, we can read more English newspapers and magazines. It's good for us. At last, we should recite some good passages and keep diaries.
