In Shanghai's Grand Theater, a fashionable, mainly young audience applauds enthusiastically as Guo Yong takes center stage．He holds a large bushy tree branch with leaves．Blowing on one of the leaves, he produces a sound like the singing of birds as he plays a traditional Buyi folk song．Some other musicians are also playing the traditional instruments from various ethnic groups in China．

It's the first time such music has ever been performed in the Grand Theater．But all this is the efforts of Zhu Zheqin, a Cantonese?born singer, who has made it her mission to help preserve China's traditional ethnic music．

In 2009, after being appointed a United Nations Development Program ambassador, Zhu traveled through some of China's remotest regions in an attempt to document the traditional music of various minority groups．In the course of the four?month trip, she recorded more than a thousand songs．But she noticed that many of the best musicians were old, and some of the music was at risk of dying out．

“I was shocked by the beauty of what I heard—it was so good，” she says．“But it needed support．I hope to let people see the beauty of these things in the contemporary times．”

So Zhu decided to introduce some of the musicians to a wider audience．By doing this, she hopes to rekindle(點(diǎn)燃) the interest of the younger generation．“Young people don't like this music much; they prefer pop music and love songs．They think these songs are something their grandma sings．This kind of repackaging gives young people a new door into their heritage．”

Zhu believes China needs to look again at its own roots．“China today is basically all Western art; in our conservatories (音樂學(xué)院) Western classical music is the top，” she says．“For China to really contribute to the world, we need to go on our own path．So what can represent China today？” The answer, she suggests, is to move from “made in China” to “created in China”．

1.From the first paragraph, we learn that________．

A． the audience are all young people

B． Guo Yong is playing the Buyi folk music

C． Guo Yong is the only minority performer in China

D． tree branches make good musical instruments

2.Which of the following is true of Zhu Zheqin?

A． She teaches music in a conservatory．

B． She is helping preserve Chinese ethnic music．

C． She works as an official in the United Nations．

D． She's created all the music for the Grand Theater．

3.What is Zhu Zheqin's idea about Chinese traditional music?

A． It is completely out of date．

B． Only old musicians play it well．

C． It needs changes to attract young people．

D． It is quickly dying out．

4.What does Zhu Zheqin mean in the last paragraph?

A． The traditional music should be repackaged．

B． Chinese conservatories shouldn't teach Western music．

C． China has contributed a lot to the Western art．

D． Only the things created in China can be symbols of China．

Alibaba started taking the lead in China， simply enough， by connecting big Chinese manufacturers（制造商） with big buyers across the world． Its business-to-business site， Alibaba． com allowed business to buy almost everything． Alibaba’s advantage wasn’t hard to identify: size． Alibaba is just big， even by Chinese standards． Its marketplaces attract 231 million active buyers，8 million sellers，11．3 billion orders a year—and Alibaba is just the middleman． It encourages people to use its markets—not charging small sellers a percentage of the sale．

If you want a quick look into the influence of Alibaba on daily Chinese life，take my experience．I moved to Beijing almost a year ago and quickly got tired of visiting small stores across the crowded，polluted city of 20 million people in search of new electronics，bathroom furnishings，and anything else my wife wanted． “You’re looking for what exactly？ Why not try it？ ” my Chinese teacher asked me one day．With that，my wonderful new relationship with Alibaba began．

Alibaba’s original business-to-business model now is secondary to consumer buying．Chinese retail（零售）buying makes up 80% of Alibaba’s profit，and leading that group is Taobao，with 800 million items for sale and the most unbelievable selection of things you’ll ever find． TMall．com is Alibaba’s other big site，where you can find brand name goods from Nike and Unilever near the lowest prices．

What I have a hard time explaining to friends and family back in the U．S．is how China has gone beyond traditional shopping—big-box retailers especially —in favor of online purchases on Taobao and a few other sites．In smaller towns than Beijing，where big retailers have not yet traveled，shopping online is shopping，and shopping is Taobao．

I have a list of some of my recent purchases on Taobao for a sense of how extensive the marketplace is．Almost everything arrived a day or two after ordering with free shipping．I’m not even a big buyer，because I need friends to help me search the Chinese-language site．When I was searching my purchase history on my Chinese teacher’s iPad，which helps me buy goods，I looked through with great difficulty about 10 of her purchases for every one of mine．

1.Alibaba’s advantage mainly lies in ___________．

A． its big size

B． its business-to-business service

C． its not charging small sellers

D． its low price

2.What can we learn from the underlined sentence in the passage？

A． Alibaba is of middle size among all the online sites

B． Alibaba will continue to develop．

C． Alibaba stands out as the best online site．

D． Alibaba acts as a bridge between the buyers and sellers．

3.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to？

A． a new store

B． Alibaba

C． a business

D． a foreign website

4.What can be inferred from the passage？

A． The author’s Chinese teacher is also an online purchase lover．

B． Taobao has no obvious advantage over other similar online sites．

C． Alibaba’s business-to-business service earns more money than retail now．

D． TMall．com provides more profit than Taobao．

5.What is the passage mainly about？

A． Shopping online is TaoBao．

B． The influence of shopping online goes beyond traditional shopping．

C． Alibaba greatly influences people’s daily purchase in China．

D． How the author purchases online in China．

In 1959, when Jean Harper was in the third grade, her teacher gave the class an assignment to write a report on what they wanted to be when they grew up. She poured her heart into her report and expressed her dream of becoming an airline pilot. Her paper came back with an "F" on it. The teacher told her it was a "fairy tale". Jean was heartbroken and ashamed. As the years went by, Jean was beaten down by the discouragement and negativity she encountered whenever she talked about her dream. "Girls can't become airline pilots; never have, never will. You're crazy. That's impossible. "Finally Jean gave up.

In her senior year of high school, her English teacher was a Mrs. Dorothy Slaton, a demanding teacher with high standards. One day Mrs. Slaton asked this question: "If you had unlimited finances, unlimited access to the finest schools, unlimited talents and abilities, what would you do?" Jean felt a rush of the old enthusiasm, and with excitement she wrote down the very old dream.

The next thing that Mrs. Slaton said changed the course of Jean's life. The teacher leaned forward over her desk and said, "I have a little secret for you. You do have unlimited abilities and talents. When you leave school, if you don't go for your dreams, no one will do it for you. You can have what you want if you want it enough."

The hurt and fear of years of discouragement disappeared all of a sudden. Jean felt thrilled and told her about her dream of becoming a pilot. Mrs. Slaton slapped the desk top. "Then do it!" she said.

So Jean did. It didn't happen overnight. In her l0 years of hard work, even facing varieties of laugh, frustration and opposition, she never gave up her dream. Instead, she went on doing everything her third-grade teacher said was fairy-tale.

Eventually, Jean Harper became a Boeing 737 captain for the United Airline Company.
