21、As William Shakespeare is to literature in English, so is the poet Du Fu to the Chinese literary tradition. “We have Dante, Shakespeare and Du Fu. These poets create the very values by which poetry is judged,” remarked Harvard Professor Stephen Owen in Du Fu: China’s Greatest Poet, a BBC documentary that aired on April 7.
Aimed at introducing the charm and beauty of traditional Chinese literature to viewers around the globe, the documentary invited the famous British actor Ian McKellen, who played the wizard Gandalf in the film series The Lord of the Rings, to read 15 of Du’s poems that have been translated into English.
The one-hour film traces the poet’s life experiences in detail. Born in 712, Du lived in the reign of the Emperor Xuanzong of Tang(712—756), a time marked by extraordinary prosperity, inclusiveness and glorious cultural accomplishments.
However, as An Lushan’s rebel army floored the empire, the 43-year-old Du, the former civil servant at the Tang court, had to take his family out of his hometown, and faced starvation and sufferings. Through ups and downs, the poet never stopped writing and about 1,500 poems have been kept over the ages.
Even though he never held a high position in the government, Du still cared about common people. For example, in the poem My Cottage Unroofed by Autumn Gales, he wrote that “Could I get mansions covering ten thousand miles, I’d house all poor scholars and make them beam with pleasure”.
“That is why he is honored as the Poet Sage by later generations. A difficult life and his spirit of concern about the world helped him create so many masterpieces,” Shi Wenxue, a cultural critic based in Beijing, told the Global Times.
Without doubt Du is a cultural symbol of ancient China, but his brilliant works and core spirits have also inspired people outside China. As the documentary notes, his work represents a precious cultural heritage for the entire world, not just China.

22、The Internet plays a big part in human life. We use it for work and pleasure. We use it to learn a new language. We find advice on it. We use it to connect with family and friends. We use it to stay in touch with events we care about. The list goes on and on.
As far as the Internet being a part of our lives, — well, that train has left the station. There is no going back to an Internet-free life. But can using the Internet too much be bad for our health? It might be, say researchers. A new study finds that heavy Internet use may be connected to high blood pressure (血压) in a young group: teenagers.
The study results show that teens who spend at least 14 hours a week only online may cause high blood pressure, which makes your heart and blood vessels (血管) work too hard. Over time, this extra pressure increases your risk of a heart attack. High blood pressure can also cause heart and other diseases.
The Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan did the study. 335 young people, from 14 to 17 years old, took part in it. 134 of the teens were described as “heavy Internet users”. And researchers found that out of these 134 teens, 26 had high blood pressure. The researchers say the study is the first to connect heavy web use with high blood pressure.
The lead researcher is Andrea Cassidy Bushrow. She said, “Using the Internet is part of our daily life, but it shouldn’t ruin us.” Ms. Cassidy Bushrow adds that it is important for teens to stop to have a rest regularly from their computers or smart phones and do some kind of physical activity. She also suggests that parents shouldn’t let their children use the Internet for more than two hours a day, five days a week.

【3】Andrea Cassidy Bushrow would agree that ________.
A．teenagers shouldn’t use the Internet

23、Tiffany and her family were sleeping at home. Their pet dog Buddy was asleep next to Tiffany. It was 4:36 a.m. The night was quiet, and no cars were passing on the street.

24、The Blue Ridge Parkway is a beautiful spot for a fall getaway. Driving along the parkway, people can see more than 100 species of trees and their leaves changing color. The 469-mile roadway passes through six mountain chains in the Appalachians in Virginia and North Carolina.
The parkway has a top speea limit of 45 mph to allow visitors to slow down and enjoy the scenery. The parkway also offers many opportunities to get out of the car and hike the parkway’s 369 miles of trails. There are also places to bike camp and explore cultural sites. The scenic roadway also features many historical structures, such as log cabins and railways, It is considered a museum of the American countryside.
Unlike most national parks, the parkway is a planned landscape. In 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt suggested a “park-to-park” highway to connect Shenandoah National Park to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Construction started September 11, 1935, and was completed in 1987.
“We usually tell folks to expect peak leaf color in mid-October,” says Amy Ney, who works with the parkway to encourage people to visit.
Ney says many things affect when the leaves change color. The elevation, or how high up the trees are in the mountains, is one thing. The highest part of the parkway is 6,053 feet. Leaves start changing there first, Ney says. The leaves lower down change later. “The amount of rainfall, daytime sunshine and nighttime temperature also add to the equation(因素). Fall storms can often blow the leaves right off the trees,” she adds.
Ney recommends that travelers visit a long section of the parkway with a variety of heights. She suggests people stop at trails or overlooks with good views. “You can see leaves at different elevations and have a greater opportunity to see fall color,” she says.
