When Zhang Lingshan was a child, she would watch the Chinese period drama Palace on television, attracted by the characters’ ancient clothing. She didn’t know what these beautiful clothes     1     (call)—only that they were from some     2     (distance) past. “They looked fairy-like, dreamy,” she said. “I was     3     (complete) drawn by the beauty of these clothes, and then eventually came to understand the culture of Hanfu, and I liked it more and more.”

Now aged nineteen and     4     (live) in Beijing, Zhang is     5     member of China’s growing “hanfu movement”—a renaissance (复兴) of the ancient clothing traditionally worn by ethnic-majority Han Chinese before the Qing dynasty. Tight-knit Hanfu communities and university clubs often meet for themed activities. Zhang and her friends sometimes visit places with ancient architecture, like Beijing’s Forbidden City,     6     emperors once lived, to take     7    (photo) in costume and post them on social media. They have more than 20,000 fans who often ask them     8     more pictures.

Nowadays, Hanfu is seen as a way     9     (celebrate) Chinese culture and improve national self-esteem. In the past few years, Hanfu clubs and social media platforms     10     (help) to bring the Han clothing back under the spotlight. “It’s the confidence of the younger people, the confidence of the country,” said Christine Tsui, a fashion columnist and researcher in Shanghai.

I was on my way     1     the Taiyetos Mountains. The sun was setting     2     my car broke down near a remote village. Cursing my     3     (fortune), I was wondering where I was going to spend the night when I realized that the villagers who had gathered around me     4     (argue) as to who should have the honor of receiving me as a guest in     5     (them) house. Finally, I accepted the offer of     6     80-year-old peasant woman who lived alone in a little house. While she was getting me settled into a tiny but clean room, the head of the village was tying up his horse     7     my car to pull it to a small town some 20 kilometers away where there was a garage.

I had noticed three hens     8     (run) free in my hostess’ courtyard and that night one of them ended up in a dish on my table. Other villagers brought me goat's cheese and honey. We drank together and talked    9     (merry) till far into the night.

When the time came for me to say goodbye to my friends in the village, I wanted to reward the old woman for the trouble I     10     (cause) her. But she refused.

Traditional Chinese culture is beginning to capture the attention of the world. Kung fu,       1     (special), has had a great effects     2     the millions of people who first learned about China through it. From that, they may come to China and learn about some other     3     (aspect) of this culture. Other Asian nations have long known about the     4     (great) of ancient Chinese culture. Their own cultures are     5     mix of native ones and those Chinese characteristics. Korea and Japan long ago adopted Confucianism, something that continued today even as it     6     (challenge)by pop culture. This strength comes from the ideas     7     (give)in the Four Books of Confucianism, which built upon the ideas of an even     8     (much)ancient period codified (编纂)in the Five Classics. From them, the West learns     9     is uniquely Chinese, for example, feng shui. So far China has taken steps     10     (further) this spread of its culture by establishing Chinese Cultural Centers in such places as the United States and Europe.

I’ve always been attracted by the     1     (beautiful) of Chinese culture and its long history. When we first arrived in China, my friend Tony and I expected a big city     2     (fill) with modern buildings, busy streets and a crowded transport system. But we were pleasantly surprised.

The thing     3     impressed us first was the space. Yes, Beijing is indeed huge, but its wide streets and green spaces made every area feel less crowded. Tian’anmen Square was the perfect example of this. The Forbidden City was     4     (surprising) clean and well protected. Everywhere we looked, there were people     5     (tidy) and cleaning, which really left an     6     (impress) of national pride. We     7     (concern) that few people would speak English, even in Beijing. But we found     8    common for Chinese people to know a few words of English. The most exciting part of our visit was riding around in the sunshine and exploring     9     city on bikes.

It was great     10     (experience) Beijing’s landmarks in person after admiring them for so many years. This was our first visit to China, but certainly not our last.
