24、 Funny action, Chinese kung fu, and the Monkey King: If you want to re-experience the adventures of Journey to the West, then Unruly Heroes, a 2D action game by Magic Design Studios (MDS) in France, is for you. The game is an example where international talent meets traditional Chinese culture.
“Creating a game based on the novel, Journey to the West, has actually been my dream since I entered this profession,” said Lu Yang, CEO and creative director of MDS. “It is a very dramatic tale set in a big, imaginary world. Every character is described vividly.”
“Everyone in China knows the story, but in European countries or the US, few people know about Journey to the West. I think such a fascinating story should be introduced to more people,” he said.
Released in January, Unruly Heroes has received an 80 percent positive reaction on STEAM. The game features a unique story and cast of characters, where players can alternate between four characters: Wukong, Sanzang, Kihong and Sandmonk.
The creative team combines many Chinese cultural elements with the art design, building an immersive world of art, animation and a taste of Chinese folk music. “Our goal is to introduce Journey to the West to the world, and be accepted by players from different cultural backgrounds,” Lu said.
Set against lush (华丽的) environments and a hand-drawn art style, Unruly Heroes updates the Journey to the West classic tale into an adventure that is more colorful, humorous and attractive to people in modern times. As Lu introduced, the game differed a lot compared with the original story. “For example, we reimagined White Bone Spirit as the owner of a beauty salon, so players need to destroy her mask to defeat her.”
Lu believes that Chinese culture has strong potential to reach a broader audience, but it needs the efforts of more companies and creative minds.
“We can add Chinese cultural elements into products that are acce ssible to people around the world. Video games, film and TV series, and other cultural and entertainment products resonate (共鸣) easily internationally,” he said.
“I am not a scholar; I simply want to do what I can to present a story I love to more people far and wide,” Lu added.
【1】The writer mentions the example of White Bone Spirit in order to________.
A.explain why Unruly Heroes changes the story in Journey to the West
B.compare the story in Unruly Heroes with that in Journey to the West
C.show how Unruly Heroes modernize the story in Journey to the West
D.criticize Unruly Heroes for changing the story in Journey to the West
【2】The word accessible to in Paragraph 8 means________.
A.likely to interest B.easy to reach C.possible to upset D.hard to attract
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A.Journey to the West is widely known and accepted in Europe and the United States.
B.Many traditional Chinese stories need changing as their characters are not vivid enough.
C.With more creativity, Chinese culture will be accepted by more people around the world.
D.Unruly Heroes avoids Chinese cultural elements to attract players from different countries.
【4】What’s the best title of the passage?
A.Unruly Heroes: A Tale that Continues to Develop
B.Unruly Heroes: A Method that Makes a Difference
C.Unruly Heroes: An Effort that Creates Traditional Culture
D.Unruly Heroes: A Game that Takes Chinese Culture Abroad
25、Imagine you are walking through the woods and you see a small dog. It looks cute and friendly. You move up to pet the dog. Suddenly it barks and tries to bite you. The dog no longer seems cute and you feel afraid and possibly angry. Then, as the wind blows, the leaves on the ground are carried away and you see the dog has one of its legs caught in a trap. Now, you take pity on the dog. You know it becomes unfriendly because it is in pain.
We all judge (评判) others all the time. It might be over small things, like a workmate who takes too long of a lunch break. Or it might be over bigger matters, such as a person who behaves selfishly or hurts our feelings. There are many reasons why we judge others. It is human nature to find a way to survive. When we see a dog (or a person) that might bite us, of course we feel threatened(威胁). We become nervous, want to fight back and are unable to see the possible reasons for another’s behaviour.
Although judgment is a natural reaction(反应), try to catch yourself before you speak, for you can’t get your words back. Make a short stop. Try to change your thought into a positive(正面的) one. After all, like that dog in the trap, we really don’t know the reasons for someone’s behaviour.
When someone disagrees with us or somehow makes our life difficult, remember that it’s usually not about us. It may be about their pain or struggle (挣扎). Why not give others the right to express their doubts? “Never underestimate the pain of a person,” Will Smith said, “because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are better at hiding it than others.”
【1】The writer talks about the dog in the first paragraph mainly to ________.
A.give an example
B.make a comparison
C.share a good story
D.set the background
【2】According to the writer, we usually judge others ________.
A.over big matters instead of small ones
B.after thinking carefully about their situation
C.about the real reasons behind their behaviour
D.for our own survival when feeling threatened
【3】What does the underlined sentence “Never underestimate the pain of a person” mean?
A.Never believe others have pain.
B.Never pay attention to others’ pain.
C.Never think others’ pain is bigger than it really is.
D.Never think others’ pain is smaller than it really is.
【4】What is the best title of the passage?
A.The best way to judge
B.Too late to judge
C.Think twice before you judge
D.You’ve got a reason to judge
26、Every year thousands of people get hurt or lose their lives when they are crossing the road. Most of them are old people and children. Old people often get hurt because they can’t see or hear very well. Children usually meet with accidents because of their carelessness. They forget to look and listen before they cross the road.
How can we reduce (减少) traffic accidents? All of us must obey the traffic rules. For the drivers, they shouldn’t drive too fast. If they drive too fast, it will be very difficult to stop the cars in a very short time. For the pedestrians, it’s very important to be careful when they are walking on the road. You must stop and look both ways before crossing the road. Look left first, next look right, and then look left again. When you make sure that it is safe, you can cross it. The right way to cross the road is to walk quickly. It’s not safe to run. If people run across the road, they may fall down. We should try to help children, old people, and blind people to cross the road, and never play in the street.
