5 . How do we make traditional Chinese culture alive and popular again among young people? Livestreaming (直播) has made it. It is not only fun, but has also provided a new stage for traditional culture artists.
On video websites and apps such as Douyin and Bilili, many traditional artists are trying livestreaming for the first time. Some of them sing Peking Opera, some show their hand-made art pieces, while others perform classical music.
Li, 59 years old, is a laosheng(old male role) Peking Opera performer who started livestreaming this year. Unlike performing on a formal (正式的) stage, Li uses everyday places as his stage, including his backyard, study room, and even a sofa. Besides singing, Li also teaches viewers about Peking Opera in a funny way. People can ask him questions and get answers directly. “Livestreaming has brought this great art down to earth,” one viewer said. “It allows young people to know this traditional art and learn more about it in an easier way.”
Other kinds of artists also see livestreaming as a new opportunity. On March 26, the third China Huafu Day, Bilibili livestreamed a fashion show. Performers showed beautiful clothes in traditional Chinese styles , including those from Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties. During the show, viewers enjoyed the clothes and watched how performers used ancient styles of make-up. For example, one blogger taught people how to draw the guiye eyebrow (桂叶眉), which was a typical make-up style during Tang Dynasty.
There is no doubt that livestreaming has created a new channel through which traditional culture can be kept alive.
1. We can guess from Paragraph 3 that Li, as a teacher, is ________.| A．Strict | B．lazy | C．humorous | D．scary |
| A．help make Douyin and Bilibili more popular |
| B．teach where and how to perform Peking Opera |
| C．encourage young people to perform art at home |
| D．show traditional artists are using livestreaming |
| A．Wei | B．Tang | C．Ming | D．Qing |
| A．a TV show to introduce traditional clothes from different dynasties |
| B．a way to bring traditional culture back to life by sharing online videos |
| C．a program to give students many traditional Chinese cultural lessons |
| D．a stage to give performers a chance to take photos of their everyday life |
6 . You may have wondered why there are fish tanks (鱼缸) at many doctor’s and dentist’s offices. Actually these medical professionals are trying to keep their working areas less stressful (有压力的) with the help of fish tanks. Because of the soft bubbling (冒泡声) from the fish tanks, their patients are expected to feel less nervous or worried when staying there.
The sound of running water can make people feel relaxed. For this reason, places where water keeps running are often considered good choices for people to have deep thoughts and stay relaxed in mind. Even a small tabletop fountain (喷泉) can make a workspace more relaxing. Unlike loud noises, repeated natural sounds remind that everything is OK. “These slow but soft sounds are just the ones that bring us no harm,” said Orfeu Buxton, a professor at Pennsylvania State University. “It seems like they are saying, ‘Don’t worry; don’t worry; don’t worry.’”
Besides bringing a sense of peace to your indoor space, a fountain can also prevent noises from coming inside. I recently had a small indoor fountain for my workspace. I enjoy the fountain even when I’m not working at home.
If you want to have an indoor fountain too, there are plenty of wonderful ones on sale, which may cost you a lot. You can try making one yourself, using some inexpensive materials, like I did. And you will always keep it around — 1,000 doctor’s offices can’t be wrong about the relaxing effects of running water.

There were three beautiful princesses, Kimmy, Katie and Kristen. Kimmy was 3, Katie was 5 and Kristen was 8. They lived in a big house, with butlers, maids, cooks and lots of people. The princesses didn’t treat them like slaves, but with respect and kindness.
The princesses’ mother was Krystal, who was kind and taught her daughters how to treat people well. The mother had long flowing black hair. The princesses’ father was Kevin. He taught his three girls to be ladylike. He had manlike blond hair. He was a nice man. They also had a tutor named Ken with light brown hair. He was handsome.
One sunny morning a messenger came with very sad news. The mother’s mother was ill. The mother and father had to leave.
They left the princesses with their uncle, who was very mean to everyone except the princesses.
One time he told the cook to make a steak and spaghetti. The uncle changed his mind but didn’t tell the cook. The cook couldn’t read minds so he still made what the uncle said before. The uncle stormed off. The cook was not happy. Kristen told him it was OK, so she made the cook feel better. Everyone else ate what he made.
Another time the butler made the beds as usual, but when the uncle inspected them, he didn’t like what he saw and he blew up at the butler, making him feel awful. Kristen saw this scene. After the uncle left, she told the butler it was fine and made the butler feel better.
One day after dinner Kristen told her two little sisters about these scenes. The girls agreed to have a meeting in their house and discuss how to make their uncle learn a lesson to be respectful and kind to others.

Children are like sweet-sour candy; no matter who you are or where you are, they please you. Laughter tickles, and innocence is their beauty which everyone adores. They are rich with joy, and purity. Yesterday, a sweet scene occupied me.
It was a summer morning. Sun poured its rays on the earth like holy wine. I was waiting for the shuttle at the bus station wearing my uniform, a white shirt with gray bottoms. Few people arrived and some departed from the bus stop to their destination. In a while, there came a young couple with their daughter.
The little girl was around 4 or 5 years. As they arrived, the baby caught everyone’s attention with her little naughty things.
She was wearing a yellow dress. Yellow was giving her a fresh look just like a sunflower: rise and shine. Her red curly hair was like cotton candy. The most eye-catching factor was her big round eyes. All black and dense having the glimpse of spark to explore everything. She was observing and scanning everything with her little black eyes.
There came an ice cream man. I could see immediately after the van played music; she asked her mother for something, but she denied it. Then she requested her father, he politely refused. She tied her hands and sat on the footpath as the sign she is offended. Red apple cheeks increased her cuteness.
While she was sitting there, a stray puppy (流浪狗) showed himself under the chairs. As soon as she saw him, the little girl rushed toward the dog and carried him. Her happiness was beyond passing over so did the puppy. He was skinny, muddy, and hungry too. “Emma don’t, he is dirty. You might mess yourself up,” her mom reminded her. “But mommy he is hungry and cold and should be fed and sheltered,” Emma said in a melodious voice as a request.
