Dear officer,

I am writing to extend my sincerely gratitude to you. Since the middle of August, there have been frequent mountain fires in Chongqing, caused great damage. However, the rescue work is not easy due to the uncertain of the wind.

Fortunately, you come to our rescue immediately. Professional rescue teams, armed police, fire fighting and others rescue forces spared no efforts to put off the fire. What touched me most was that the volunteers joined in the rescue work regardless of the hot weather and burning ground. That occurred to me that but for your help, Chongqing could have returned to normal so soon.

Your commitment really means a lot of to us, and I do hope to have the opportunity to repay your selfish devotion.

9 . A series of books in Chinese and English covering eight classic works of Peking Opera recently released, with the aim of revealing details about the art form in a direct way.

The bilingual (双语的) books are from the Translation Series of a Hundred Jingju Classics, a project originated from 2011, which is part of the effort by the central government to promote Chinese culture overseas.

Peking Opera, with its complex and colorful costumes and make-up, as well as the unique performance combining singing, dialogue, acting and acrobatics (杂技), has become a symbol of traditional Chinese culture. Over the last 200 years, more than 1, 000 Peking Opera shows have been produced telling the most classic historical stories in China, as well as giving glimpses of society, according to Wang. The art form was listed as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (非物质文化遗产) by UNESCO in 2010. Famous performers such as Mei Lanfang and Cheng Yanqiu have also taken Peking Opera abroad. And though foreign fans are impressed by it, few understand the stories told on stage.

To help foreigners understand the art form better, Sun Ping, dean, School of Art, Beijing Foreign Studies University, and her team have edited the new books. Different from previous English translations of books that mostly covered the scripts (剧本) of Peking Opera plays, the new series introduces nearly all aspects of the art form, including the script, actors and actresses, performance skills, musical instruments and costumes, according to Sun, who is herself a highly regarded Peking Opera artist.

“It fills the blank in overseas promotions of Peking Opera,” says Liu Jian, a professor at the National Academy of Chinese Theater Arts. “The inheritance and promotion of Peking Opera are very important. In a sense, promotion is even more important. The project sets a good example.”

Scott Ian Rainen, an expert from the United States, who works at China Foreign Languages Publishing Administration, says he was happy to read the new books. Foreigners often don’t understand the plot in a Peking Opera play, but the books introduce the cultural and historical background, its character modeling, costumes and props, artistic theories and so on.

1. Why are the set of bilingual books released?

A．To stress the importance of Peking Opera.

B．To attract foreigners to learn Peking Opera.

C．To promote the diversity of Peking Opera.

D．To present Peking Opera more effectively.

2. What is the third paragraph mainly about?

A．The advantage of learning Peking Opera.

B．The brief introduction of Peking Opera.

C．The benefits of releasing these bilingual books.

D．The reason for people’s attachment to Peking Opera.

3. What’s special about these translations of books?

A．They cover stories about Peking Opera.

B．They share a more significant art value.

C．They are better in covering the scripts of Peking Opera.

D．They are overall in showing the features of Peking Opera.

4. What is Scott lan Rainen’s attitude towards the new project?

A．Subjective.

B．Sceptical.

C．Positive.

D．Tolerant.

10 . Every week, my fellow graduate students and I get together to make insect-inspired crafts (工艺). One crochets (钩织) butterflies, and another makes bees. It may sound frivolous, but it’s far from it. A regular social night like this — whether built around crafts or some other shared interest — can make a significant difference in our work and our lives.

Two years ago, a friend passed away. I crocheted bees for his family in memory of him and his research. Crocheting allowed me to create something that I could give others and help comfort them and I think it helped comfort me as well.

I continued to crochet bees long after, and I was surprised when other students asked me to teach them how to crochet. We gathered one evening when I taught 10 people how to crochet at once. Then a second night was planned so that they could finish the bees they started. That second craft night, an experienced crafter wanted to try something new. We continued to meet, and as more people brought new projects, craft night turned into a weekly social event.

Now craft night is open to everyone to do whatever they wish, crafting or not. We’ve also received support from others in the department (系). We’ve crafted so much that we’ve started to sell our crafts at events. The income helps support graduate student events in the department.

Craft night supports graduate students in other ways as well. I’ve gained new friends and grown closer to them by teaching them my skills and asking them to teach me theirs. New students have used craft night to connect with more senior students and ask for help and advice. One student commented craft night had made her feel more welcome in our department and university.

With my defense (答辩) date approaching, I don’t know exactly what my future holds. But I know craft night will continue to grow in the hands of future students.

1. What does the underlined word “frivolous” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A．Difficult.

B．Boring.

C．Important.

D．Interesting.

2. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?

A．How the craft night came into being.

B．How many students began crocheting.

C．Why other students got interested in crafts.

D．What difficulty crocheting was involved in.

3. How did the author benefit from the craft night?

A．She earned enough to cover school fees.

B．She learned about her future in advance.

C．She became a teacher in her department.

D．She made closer social bonds with others.

4. What can be the best title for the text?

A．Making crafts	B．Crafting social ties
C．Honoring friends	D．Sharing an common hobby
