1 . Dong Yuhui, a 30-year-old livestreaming (直播) host for East Buy, found himself in an online controversy (争议) that began on Dec. 5.

East Buy said that many of the things Dong said in his livestreams were written by the East Buy team, not by himself. The then-CEO, Sun Dongxu, criticized Dong and the team, which made Dong’s fans upset.

Surprisingly, this controversy made Dong even more popular. In just one week, his Douyin followers increased by over 3 million, and Dong became vice president of New Oriental’s cultural and tourism business.

Though his fame is rising, Dong remains humble. “I am not good-looking or tall. I don’t know why I have so many supporters.” he said.

However, Xu Hanze, an associate professor at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (南京航空航天大学), believes that Dong got more attention because of his talent and intelligence, thanks to his habit of reading widely.

In the age of consumerism (消费主义), Dong does not trick customers into buying unnecessary products, but encourages them to think twice when shopping online. He also puts more efforts into educational activities and events to help farmers.

Dong believes that people should not wish to be the next Dong Yuhui. He said, “I want to tell other young livestreamers that they do not need to be me, as each story is moving in its own way.” He went on to say that people are not the same products made on manufacturing lines, and that diversity (不同) is what makes people special.

3 . 阅读下面短文，在文章空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

The Chinese language is said to be difficult to learn. Is this true?     1     my opinion, it depends.

At the age of 13, I started     2     (take) Chinese classes and speaking Chinese at school in the UK. It was a subject that could make the classroom deadly silent     3     it was difficult to learn. But when I came to China last year, I found that learning Chinese could be     4     (enjoy).

After I moved to Beijing, I lived with local people. As     5     language lover, I would try to talk with local people in Chinese, sharing details (细节) of our everyday life. Sometimes we would also go to KTV together.

When I     6     (step) into the KTV room for the first time, the atmosphere (气氛) there was     7     (complete) different from that of a classroom. But this was where the learning would take place. With every note I sang, I began to understand the characters.     8     (spend) time with others made the process of learning less like work and more like fun. As I sang with native Chinese     9     (speak), it finally began to click (豁然开朗). This was an environment where I could lose     10     (I) in the Chinese language and culture while still expressing myself.
