24、When it comes to Chinese traditional art, painting and dance are two parts which are of great importance in the art world. But what about when they meet each other?

This year, a dance drama titled Poetic Dance: The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting (《只此青绿》) was on CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala and as one of the most eye-catching performances, it was inspired by the 900-year-old Chinese painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). “Created by Song Dynasty painter Wang Ximeng, the painting impresses people with its big size, rich natural colors, and the expressive details,” reported CCTV. It shows a Chinese blue-green picture of land: mountains and groupings of rise and fall between cloudless sky and rippling (波浪起伏的) water.

To show the Chinese traditional art of the painting, the dancers were creatively conceptualized (概念化) as the mountains. When the dancers were making dance movements, people seemed to be looking at the moving mountains and rivers.

“It brings me an enjoyable experience of beauty. It is not only a drama but also an ‘exhibition’ which shows excellent works of art to the public. Huge mountains and rivers are coming to life!” Mo Weisha wrote in her review. “More than a thousand years later, green mountains and rivers still excite people as they did long ago.” Some people even decided to watch the dance again when it was performed in the theaters later.

In fact, in recent years, more and more modern shows give their attention to Chinese traditional culture and have received warm welcome as the result of people’s great love for traditional culture.

“People have a more open mind and value tradition more than ever these days. The young take pride in Chinese culture and are fond of it. Hopefully these shows will gain more popularity.” Yao Wei, director of Henan TV station said.

25、   How often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups and, old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.

Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities(责任) to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. What's more, life is always giving new things to the child-things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. But a child has his pains; he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is repeatedly being told not to do something, or being punished for what he has wrongly done.

When a young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.

【1】According to Paragraph 2, the writer thinks that________.

A．life for a child is fairly easy

B．a child is always loved whatever he does

C．if much is given to a child, he must do something in return

D．only children are interested in life

A．People are always happy with their life.

B．Life is more interesting for children than for adults.

C．Adults are freer to do what they want to do.

D．A young man has to work if he wants to live comfortably.

【3】The main idea of the passage is that ________.

A．life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains

B．young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard

C．childhood is the most enjoyable time in one's life

D．one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life

Nash Limited. He came up with the idea of "hypertext (超文本)" in order to help scientists share research information. In 1989, Berners-Lee learned how to join hypertext with the Internet.

And one year later he built the first web browser and editor (浏览编辑器) called the World Wide Web. From then on, Berners-Lee allowed others to use his idea freely.

In 1999, he was called one of the 100 most influential (有影响的) people of the twentieth century by Time Magazine. He received many prizes including $1.2 million on April 15th, 2004.
