Beijing Opera is the most representative of all Chinese traditional dramatic art forms and the largest Chinese opera form. Having a history of about 200 years, it is developed from absorbing(吸收)many other dramatic forms, mostly from the local drama 'Huiban', which was popular in South China during the 18th century. It is a scenic(戏剧的)art integrating music, performance, literature, aria, and face painting.
Theatrical art forms in many other countries do not present singing, dancing and spoken parts in one single drama. An opera singer, for example, neither dances nor speaks on stage; there are no singing or dancing parts in a modern play; in a dance drama, the dancer has no speaking role and does not sing either. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment which includes spoken parts, singing, dancing and acrobatics
In addition to its presence in China, Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, one of the most famous performers of all time, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries.
“You will be puzzled all the way through and a little bored from time to time; but you will be charmed and interested. You will be strongly attracted to Beijing Opera even if you know nothing of the dramatic background. "This is how one American traveller described his firs experience in watching Beijing Opera.
Beijing Opera is China’s national opera and it is full of Chinese cultural traditions. Welcome to China and enjoy Beijing Opera!
39. What makes Beijing Opera different from theatrical art forms in many other countries
A. It has one opera singer on stage.
B. It has one dancer who has no speaking role.
C. It has already spread to many other countries.

Born in the 2006,what do you think of your generation( 一代人)?Young,creative,connected,global,smart,maybe good﹣looking?But what do other people think about your generation?
Some adults worry that you're more interested in the phone than the world around you.They see you as the "face﹣down generation" and wonder how you will deal with school,friends,and family.Are today's teenagers too busy texting and taking selfies(自拍)o become successful in real life or "IRL",as you would say?
Other adults worry that today's youth are spoiled and don't want to face the challenges of adult life.Many children born in the 1990s and 2000s were raised by "helicopter parents" who were always there to do everything for them.So today's young people seem to prefer to live like teenagers even when they are in their 20s or 30s.
Does the face﹣down generation need a heads﹣up?Well,probably not.The fact is that many of today's teenagers are better educated and more creative than past generations.They also seem to be willing to become leaders.More young people than ever volunteer to serve their communities.
There are also brave young people such as Malalai Yousafzai,the teenager who won the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize for pushing girls' rights to go to school.
So if you are one of them born in the 2000s,there's reason to be hopeful about the future.Things are looking up for the face﹣ down generation.
43.How did the writer lead the readers to the passage?
A.By showing his ideas. B.By asking questions.
C.By describing the situation. D.By comparing different examples.
44.Why are the young people born in the 2000s called "face﹣down generation" ?
A.Because they are always busy with homework with their heads down.
B.Because they are not closely connected to the people around them.
C.Because they spend too much time on computers.
D.Because they show great interest in the phone and use it too much.
45.In the writer's eyes,today's teenagers
A.are not creative because of the educational problem.
B.are willing to take part in many social activities.
C.are growing up more slowly than before.
D.are smarter and more good﹣looking than their parents.
46.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Mobile phones are harmful to teenagers' growth and development.
B.Teenagers don't need themselves to change to meet adults standards.
C.Although the young people have some problems,their future is full of hope.
D.Teenagers shouldn't text or take selfies to become successful.
D
Nature and culture are often seen as opposite ideas.What belongs to nature cannot be the result of human activities and on the other hand,cultural development is achieved against nature.However,this is not the only opinion on the relationship between nature and culture.Studies in the development of humans suggest that culture,whether taken as an effort against nature or a natural effort,is part of the development of the human species (物种).
Several modern writers saw the process of education as a struggle (斗争) against human nature.We are born with wild natures,such as eating and behaving in a disorganized way or acting selfishly.Education uses culture as a way to get us out of our widest natures;it is thanks to culture that the human species could learn to adapt (适应),progress and raise itself above and beyond other species.
Over the past century and a half,however,studies in the history of human development have shown that the formation of culture is part of the biological adaptation.Consider,for example,hunting.It seems to be an adaptation,which allowed humans to move into new and different areas,opening up the opportunity to change living habits.At the same time,the development of weapons is related to that adaptation — from rocks and stones to a set of hunting tools,and from hunting tools to rules relating to the proper use of weapons.Hunting also seems to be responsible for a whole set of bodily abilities,such as balancing on one foot.Just think of how this very simple thing is closely related to dance,a key expression of human culture.It is then clear that biological development and cultural development are closely tied.
The transmission of culture seems to be directly related to what's in our blood.Just as snails carry their shell,so do we bring along our culture.However,culture is also passed on among people of the same times or among people belonging to different populations.We can learn how to make jiaozi even if we were born from Russian parents in Paris just as we can learn how to speak English even if none of our family or friends speaks that language.
47.Why does the writer talk about hunting in Paragraph 3?
A.To suggest some possible ways of changing living habits.
B.To stress the importance of tools in humans' struggle for life.
C.To show how culture develops as humans adapt to the environment.
D.To explain why there is a need to call for the proper use of weapons.
48.The word "transmission" in Paragraph 4 probably means " ".
A.system B.Spread C.Start D.spirit
49.What is the writer's opinion on the nature﹣culture relationship?
A.Culture and nature are separate yet balanced.
B.Culture depends much on nature to progress.
C.Nature and culture are different but connected.
D.Nature follows the unwritten rules set by culture.
50.Where can we read this passage?
A.A magazine. B.A science fiction.
C.An advertisement. D.A poster.
