Beijing Opera is one of the traditional Chinese drama art forms and the largest Chinese opera form. Having
a history of about 200 years, it is developed from many other drama forms, mostly from the local drama “Huiban”.
It was very popular in south China during the 18th century. Theatrical (戏剧的) art forms in many other countries
do not have singing, dancing and spoken parts together 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
doesn’t speak or sing. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment (娱乐). It
includes spoken parts, singing and dancing.
Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, one of the most famous performers of all, was
the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries. “You will
doubt and sometimes be a little bored, but you will be interested gradually. You will be strongly attracted to
Beijing Opera, even if you know nothing about the drama background.” This is how one traveler 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!

It’s easy to hear one side of a story about a person and judge (评价) the person right away. 16 If your
friend just had an argument with someone and told you the person’s faults (缺点), you might begin to develop a
sense of hate against the person. But here’s the truth: every argument has more than one side that needs to be
considered.
17 When you only listen to one side of a story, it’s like watching a movie, but only some certain scenes.
This way, you’ll miss many parts that can influence your understanding of the whole story. By learning both sides
of a story, you can get a clearer picture of it and a better understanding of people’s relationships.
For example, your sister is now upset because she didn’t get the invitation to her friend’s birthday party. 18
But, what if her friend only invited her family to the party Her friend didn’t want your sister to feel uncomfortable
at the party so she didn’t invite her. Then you’ll understand how thoughtful her friend is. 19
Remember that there are always two sides of a story. It’s certainly not wise to consider only one side of the
story. Judging someone before hearing the whole story is dangerous. 20 Don’t make such mistakes and never
judge others before walking in their shoes.
根据材料内容,从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项,使文章意思通顺、内容完整。
A.It’s so common that we’ve all probably done that.
B.Why is one side of a story not good for judging a person
C.In doing so, you might pass the truth and make serious mistakes.
D.You no longer think of her friend as unfriendly but understanding.
E.After listening to her side, you might think of her friend as unfriendly.
