27、Beijing Opera is the most representative of all Chinese traditional dramatic art forms and the largest Chinese opera form. Having a history of about 200 years, it is developed from absorbing (吸收) many other dramatic forms, mostly from the local drama ‘Huiban’, which was popular in South China during the 18th century. It is a scenic(戏剧的)art integrating music, performance, literature, aria, and face painting.
Theatrical art forms in many other countries do not present singing, dancing and spoken parts in one single drama. An opera singer, for example, neither dances nor speaks on stage; there are no singing or dancing parts in a modern play; in a dance drama, the dancer has no speaking role and does not sing either. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment which includes spoken parts, singing, dancing and acrobatics.
In addition to its presence in China, Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, one of the most famous performers of all time, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries.
“You will be puzzled all the way through and a little bored from time to time; but you will be charmed and interested. You will be strongly attracted to Beijing Opera even if you know nothing of the dramatic background.” This is how one American traveller described his first experience in watching Beijing Opera.
Beijing Opera is China’s national opera and it is full of Chinese cultural traditions. Welcome to China and enjoy Beijing Opera!

28、 In modern-day society having a smartphone is considered normal, even essential. Most teens can’t imagine living without a mobile, yet I still don’t own one. Why? Because my mother does not consider it n【1】. This may seem unreasonable to many, but sometimes I agree with her. Of course, I experience the downside often enough. I feel a bit left out, when everybody in class talks about a post they saw the other day. Very often I feel embarrassed when I must e【2】 why I can’t be part of online groups.
During lessons our teachers like working with mobile phones. I do have a Nokia phone though, and I phone my father who works a【3】 nearly every day.

I do feel angry that people are always telling me they have p【4】 on me because I don’t own one.
Being an outsider in this world of technology, I sometimes feel I’m the only one that notices the c【5】 in people when they get a smartphone. I’ve been to many birthday parties where everyone spends more time on their phone than talking to one another and I’ve seen my friends completely stuck in their online world. It makes me sad that so many people lose themselves in a world that doesn’t e【6】 and ignore the people around them.
I enjoy the freedom I get from not being available all day long and I feel able to spend most of my free time reading or doing s【7】 interesting. Maybe one day I will get a smartphone, but I am not going to be unhappy because I don’t own one. So trust me, when people say that it’s better to have a smartphone, they’re wrong!
