Qu Juanru: Life with Flower-Drum Opera
Tongxiang Flower-Drum Opera
The Flower-Drum Opera is a symbol of the local cultures of southern China. It has been performed for centuries on stages in the ancient water town of Wuzhen, East China's Zhejiang Province.
Audiences gathering to watch one specific troupe (剧团) in town might not know that a "xiao sheng" (young male role) is actually played by an woman over 80 years old.
Qu Juanru's dream life with opera
Qu Juanru is one of the official inheritors (继承人) of Tongxiang Flower-Drum Opera. Her stage career goes back to her teenage years. "My mother passed away when I was 14. I've lived with my father since then. In the old days, women were not allowed to perform opera. However, my father never held me back when I tried to sing," Qu said.
Qu started performing at the age of 18 when she joined the local Aimin Flower-Drum Opera troupe. Later, the troupe was cancelled, and Qu went back to farming.
After that, the young girl joined hands with others to bring the opera troupe back to life. "We had 20 people in our troupe. The income (收入) was only about 200 yuan. It couldn't afford the food, not to mention the costumes. We had to give up again," Qu said.
Returning to the stage
All of that changed overnight when a staff from Wuzhen tourism center knocked on her door in 2001. Wuzhen was undergoing renovation(革新), and set out to save local customs, including the Tongxiang Flower-Drum Opera. Qu, working in a factory, was their only hope.
Knowing that she could sing again, Qu was filled with joy. Whether it is cold or hot, Qu always wears the same set of costume and gives her everything on stage in Xiuzhen Taoist Temple in Wuzhen. She appears in six rounds of a 30-minute play every day. In 2017, she fell ill with lupus (狼疮), yet it did not stop her from putting on shows.
"I can still sing and perform. I'd love to be here, as long as the stage needs me," Qu said. Perhaps Qu considers her opera life as a wonderful dream not to be missed.
11.From the passage, what can we know about Qu Juanru
A. She has lived with her parents since she was 14 years old.
B. She gave up performing in 2017 because of lupus.
C. She worked as a farmer when the troupe was cancelled.
D. She learnt the Flower-Drum Opera from her father.
12.Which is the right order of the events about Qu Juanru
a. She fell ill with lupus.
b. Her mother passed away.
c. She accepted an invitation from Wuzhen.
d. She joined Aimin Flower-Drum Opera troupe.
A. b-d-a-c B. b-d-c-a C. c-b-a-d D. c-a-b-d
13.What can be inferred (推断) according to the passage
A. Qu Juanru's mother helped her a lot with performing.
B. Tongxiang Flower-Drum Opera experienced many difficulties.
C. Wuzhen tourism center provides courses for flower-drum lovers.
D. The staffs in the tourism center performed every day.
B
A British man has learned the skills needed to perform Beijing Opera, making the audience (观众) enjoy his lively performance of the Monkey King.
Ghaffar Pourazar, born in Iran, said he has been a big fan of Bruce Lee since he was a child and is full of interest about China. In 1993, he happened to watch Beijing Opera performed in London by professionals from Jingju Theatre Company of Beijing. Ghaffar said he fell in love with the beautiful voices, colorful costumes, excellent shows and so on. So after one year, he arrived in China alone and became a student of Beijing Opera at a Beijing school.
At the age of 32, he had to learn with teenage students every day, starting from the most basic training of the legs and waist. At the time, he was mostly troubled by the dialogue in Beijing Opera. To him, it was the biggest obstacle. But he never gave up.
Four years later, he began to learn to perform the Monkey King, a traditional character from the Chinese classic story Journey to the West. He said he arrived in the workroom an hour earlier than other performers and also bought books and CDs to better understand the character.
Ghaffar today is not only good a speaking Beijing dialect (方言) but has also built a fame for Beijing Opera. He once got a top international prize for performing the Monkey King.
To help more people enjoy Beijing Opera, Ghaffar often teaches the traditional art form in schools in the United States, Britain and other countries. When he found that the language was difficult to understand, he started to translate Beijing Opera song lyrics. Ghaffar led a group of actors to perform 66 times in a month and a half in the United States. He also led a 48-member team to perform in Malaysia. In the past 10 years, he has performed in more than 400 shows.
14.In the year of 1994, Ghaffar began to _____.
A. make friends with Bruce Lee B. take an interest in China
C. learn Beijing Opera in Beijing D. act the part of the Monkey King
15.The underlined word "obstacle" in Paragraph 3 probably means "_____".
A. chance B. problem C. topic D. dream
16.It can be inferred from the passage that Ghatffar _____.
A. is successful in performing Beijing Opera
B. has written some books about Beijing Opera
C. got a prize for translating Journey to the West
D. doesn't need any more members in his team
17.The passage is most probably from the part of _____ in a newspaper.

答案以及解析
一、
1.答案:B
解析:句意:让我们把箱子打开,看看里面有什么。throw...away“扔掉”;open...up “把打开”;dress...up “装扮”;write...down“把……写下”。由后面的"see what's in it"可知对方建议 “打开”箱子。
2.答案:B
解析:句意:—这家餐馆的菜似乎很贵。—别担心。你可以尽情享用。我请客。考查名词辨析。time时间; task任务; treat款待; taste味道。根据"The dishes in this restaurant must be very expensive."可知对方对菜的价格很担忧, 所以此处要消除其顾虑, 主动请客, It's my treat."我请客。"故选C。
3.答案:D
解析:考查连词辨析。then然后; so因此; and和, 那么; or或者, 否则。 由句意"埃米莉, 你又在玩电子游戏!努力学习吧, 否则你会在即将来临的考试中不及格。"可知, or符合句意。
4.答案:A
解析:句意:比起咖啡, 她的表兄更喜欢红茶。所以他经常去茶馆。考查动词辨析。prefers更喜欢; has有; likes喜欢; drinks喝。根据固定搭配"prefer sth. to sth.相对......更喜欢......"可知, prefers符合句意。故选A。
5.答案:D
解析:考查数词的用法。句意:2022年北京冬奥会将需要成千上万的志愿者。 thousand前有具体数字时用单数形式,不接of,先排除A、B两项; thousands与of连用表示概数"成千上万的",后接可数名词复数。故选D。
6.答案:C
解析:句意:—你认识那边穿红裙子的那个女人吗?—是的。她是我最喜欢的老师。她教我们英语教得很好。考查人称代词宾格。our我们的,形容词性物主代词;ours我们的,名词性物主代词;us我们,人称代词宾格。teaches后缺少间接宾语,teach sb. sth.“教某人……”,用人称代词宾格us。故选C。
7.答案:B
解析:句意:商人更喜欢写电子邮件来互相交流,而不是打电话。prefer to do sth. rather than do sth. “宁可做某事也不做某事”为固定搭配。
8.答案:C
解析:put out熄灭; stay out待在外面; find out发现,查明,搞清楚;run out用完,跑出去。蒂娜来到中国是为了体验中国文化并搞清楚哪所大学是最适合她上的, find out符合题意,故答案为C。
9.答案:C
解析:句意:——这两个谁更喜欢哪个,蓝色的还是白色的?——都不喜欢。我更想看看灰色的这个。考查动词辨析。prefer更喜欢(两者比较);would rather do宁愿做。根据“the blue one or the white one”可知。两者比较更喜欢哪一个,故第一空应填do you prefer。would rather后接动词原形,D选项表述错误,故选C。
10.答案:A
解析:句意:简已经结婚15年了,但她仍然不知道她嫁给了什么样的男人。考查现在完成时和一般过去时的用法。marry“结婚”,是非延续性动词。根据“ for 15 years”可知此处应用其延续性动词形式:be married,故排除B、D选项。再根据“yet she still doesn’t know what kind of man she ”可知此处是表示过去的动作,用一般过去时,故选A。
