Daban, we move to another ancient city, Loulan.
Two thousand years ago, beside the beautiful and rich Luobu Lake, there lay Loulan, ancient city on the
Silk Road. Businessmen from every country gathered here and there were dancing parties. Everything shows
that people in Loulan lived a rich life then.
However, two thousand years later, this rich land suddenly disappeared from the map of China. Then it
became an area covered with sand and dead tree trunks.
Loulan was first "discovered" by a Swedish man Sven Hedin in 1900. People from America, Britain, Japan
and Sweden, all set foot here. Then in the 1930s, a Chinese named Huang Wenbi came to Loulan for the first
time. He visited and studied this area and found many relics that were beautifully and carefully made.
It is recorded that the ancient city of Loulan was the capital of Loulan Kingdom during the Han and Jin
dynasties. In the past century many things have been dug out there including Han Dynasty coins, mirrors and
many others from Greece and Rome. All these things show that a lot of business between East and West once
took place there.
Lying on the northwest of the Lop Nur area, the Loulan Kingdom is now a lifeless area with endless
"forests" of mounds (小丘) which aren"t easily seen in other parts of the world. Its mystery (神秘) has been
attracting so many people from so many countries.

Awards are granted by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Academy Awards are nicknamed
"Oscars", which is also the nickname of the statuette. The name is said to have been born in 1931 when
Margaret Herrick saw the statuette on a table and said. "It looks just like my uncle Oscar!"
Berlin Film Festival One of the "A" festivals in Europe. The Berlin International Film Festival, also called
the "Berlinale", is held annually in February and started in 1951 after an initiative of the American, who
occupied part of the city after World War II. The jury always placed special emphasis on representing films
from all over the world, from the former Eastern Bloc Countries (东方阵营) as well as from Western
countries.The awards are called Golden and Silver Bears ( as the bear is the symbol of Berlin).
Venice Film Festival The Venice Film Festival takes place every year in late August/early September on

meetings throughout the year. A new Einstein will appear, scientists say. But it may take a long time. After all,
more than 200 years separated Einstein from Isaac Newton.
Many physicists say the next Einstein hasn"t been born yet, or is a baby now. That"s because the search
for a unified theory that would explain all the forces of nature has pushed current mathematics to its limits.
New math must be created after the problem can be solved.
But researchers say there are many other factors working against another Einstein appearing anytime soon.
For one thing, physics is a much different field today. In Einstein"s day, there were a few thousand physicists
worldwide, and the theorists who could argue with Einstein probably would fit into a streetcar with seats to
spare. Education is different, too. One key aspect of Einstein"s training that-is little noticed is the years of
philosophy he read as a teenager-Kant, Schopenhauer and Spinoza, among others. It taught him how to think
independently about space and time and it wasn"t long before he became a philosopher himself.
And Einstein was a clever musician. The interplay between music and math is well-known. Einstein would
play his violin hard as a way to think through a knotty physics problem.
Today, universities have produced millions of physicists. There aren"t many jobs in science for them, so
they go to Wall Street and Silicon Valley to apply their analytical skills. Those who stay in science don"t work
alone and they sometimes do experiment together which takes years.
It"s hard to imagine a renegade (背叛者) like Einstein standing it. "Maybe there is an Einstein out there
today," said Columbia University physicist Brian Greene, "but it would be a lot harder for him to be heard."
B. create a unified theory
C. have to be born now
D. push math to its limits
B. interesting
C. strange
D. difficult
B. There will be no problems to solve.
C. There will be suitable philosophy to study.
D. There are only a few physicists.
B. mathematical rule
C. unique idea
D. physical saying
Korea, wrestling (摔跤) and swing play are the highlights. However, both events go by the same name-the
Dragon Boat Festival-which falls on May 5 of the lunar calendar.
One festival, two cultures: does one nation have the right to call its own? It has been reported that South
Korea will apply to the United Nations Educational, Social and Cultural Organization (UNESCO联合国教科
文组织) to make the celebration its cultural heritage (文化遗产). If successful, people from other countries
may see the Dragon Festival as a Korean creation.
As the birthplace of the yearly event more than 2,000 years ago, China is not happy with the situation.
"It would be a shame if another country successfully made a traditional Chinese festival part of its own
cultural heritage ahead of China," said Zhou Heping, deputy culture minister. The Ministry of Culture is even
thinking of making its own application to UNESCO, covering all traditional Chinese festivals, including the
Dragon Boat event.
Over the years, the Dragon Boat Festival has spread throughout the world. In Japan and Viet Nam, as
well as South Korea, the festival has mixed with and become part of local culture.
With this in mind, some experts say that it is meaningless to argue about which country the festival
belongs to. "No one can deny that it came from China," said Long Haiqing, an expert from Hunan Province.
"But if all the countries involved can protect culture heritage together, they will all benefit."
B. highest lights on the building
C. brightest lights at night
D. most famous festivals
B. has the exactly same Dragon Boat Festival as China
C. has no idea that China has such a festival
D. is paying more attention to its cultural heritage than China
B. it is also making an application
C. South Korea has no right to call the festival its own
D. UNESCO may approve (批准) South Korea"s application
B. it will be meaningless to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival
C. people from other parts of the world will think South Korea created the festival
D. the Dragon Boat Festival will become part of local culture
B. China getting UNESCO"s approval of the festival first
C. the opinion of Zhou Heping
D. China paying more attention to its cultural heritage
and so the film industry there is called "Bollywood". Bollywood makes twice as many movies each year as
Hollywood-more than 800 films a year.
2. _______ For one thing. Bollywood movies are much longer than most Hollywood movies. Most
Bollywood movies are more than three hours long, and contain singing, dancing, action, adventure, mystery,
and romance. Because Bollywood films contain so many different features, this style of film is sometimes
called a "masala" film.("Masala" is an Indian word for a mixture of spices.)
3. _______ It takes much longer to make a movie in Hollywood than in Bollywood. In fact, filming may
begin on a Bollywood movie before the script (剧本) is even finished. The director and writer can make up
the story while the film is being made. 4. _______
Bollywood actors are very popular and some are in such high demand that they may work on several
movies at the same time. 5. _______ Since most Bollywood movies follow the same kind of story, shooting
scenes for several films at the same time is not a big problem for actors or directors. This also helps keep
the cost of Bollywood movies lower than the cost of Hollywood movies. The average Bollywood film, with
a budget (预算) of only two million U. S. dollars, seems very cheap compared to the average budget of sixty
million U.S. dollars for a Hollywood film - thirty times as much!
B. Bollywood produces more movies than Hollywood.
C. Most people think that the capital of the movie world is Hollywood, in the United States.
D. They may even shoot scenes for several films on the same day using the same, clothes and scenery.
E. Only Indian people can understand Bollywood movies.
F. Sometimes they will even write the script by hand instead of taking time to type it.
G. The movies from Bollywood are very different from Hollywood movies.
Try to imagine what first few months of your life were like. I am sure you just spent most of your time
eating, sleeping and crying. As you grow older, you were awake more of the time. It took your parents more
time to play with you and talk to you. You watched and listened curiously. You began to know that people
made certain sounds to go with certain things.
Then you began to try making the sounds you heard. And step by step you were able to make the right
sound for one thing.
On that day yon came to understand the secret of language. The secret is that a certain sound means a
certain thing. One sound might be as good as another. But it is no good as a word unless everybody agrees
on its meaning. Only when a group of people use the same set of sounds of things, can they understand each
other. Then, and only then do these people have a LANGUAGE.
After you found the secret of language, you learned words. Some of the words meant things, such as
BOOKS, CHAIRS and SHOES. Some words meant doing things, such as GO and SWIM. And other words
describe things, such as GOOD and DIRTY. Soon you learned to put words together to express one"s idea,
such as "I want to go out and play with my friends." This is language. By means of language people can
communicate. So we say languages are means of communication.
B. spent most of your time talking with your parents
C. could not hear any sound around you
D. spent most of your time eating,playing and crying
B. people can hear your sounds
C. a certain sound is for a certain thing
D. there is a special sound for each person
B. to find the secret of the language
C. to share ideas, opinions, news, etc with one another
D. to describe the language
