    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    阅读理解
          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 Cantoneseborn singer, who has made it her mission to help preserve China's traditional
    ethnic music.
         Several years ago, 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 other fourmonth 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 (再次点燃) 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 (音乐学院) 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".
