Have you ever picked up a pen to write some characters(文字),but you can't remember what they look like
You're not alone.CCTV-10 started 31 show called Chinese Character Dictation. Contest(《中国汉字听写大会》) before.In the show,only three out of ten adults correctly wrote bingjiling(ice cream 冰激凌),and no one 32 write out penti(sneeze 喷嚏). According to a survey,94.1%of people had memory lapses(差错) 33 they wrote some characters.
34 seems that Chinese characters are in danger.Since the digital age began,fewer and fewer people use pens and paper.Most people now write Chinese 35 keyboards using pinyin.As a result,many people would forget the features of the Chinese character,such as its structure and meaning 36
Chinese characters are one of the world's 37 written languages,dating back to 1100 BC.It's not only a way for us to record things but also important 38 on Chinese culture. For example,the character nan(male 男 )is made up of two 39 ,tian(farmland 田) and li(strength 力). We can tell from it that in the old times Chinese men 40 in charge of(负责) working on the farmland.It's interesting!
