【经典试题拓展】
(2019·全国Ⅲ·阅读理解B篇)
主题:跨文化沟通、包容与合作
For Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative.
“It's no secret that China has always been a source(来源) of inspiration for designers,” says Amanda Hill, chief creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(时尚) shows.
Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China-inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics(美学) on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.
“China is impossible to overlook,” says Hill. “Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion—they are central to its movement.”Of course, only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China—some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese. “Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galliano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs—and beating them hands down in design and sales,” adds Hill.
For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. “The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers,” she says. “China is no longer just another market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China—its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways.”

The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the first lunar month, marking the end of the Spring Festival.
There're a wide range of interesting activities. People get together to have a family reunion dinner, eating tangyuan, balls of sticky rice flour stuffed with different fillings. Its round shape symbolizes reunion, harmony and happiness. After dinner, family and friends go out to enjoy the magnificent and dazzling lantern show and guess riddles written on the lanterns.
It allows Chinese people to gratefully reunite with family members, which has been an integral part of Chinese culture.
