           "It' s impossible for us to reach the same -level as we have done in Summer sports, but we will try to minimize the gap as much as we can．"

    　　Beijing-“Ma”, a Chinese character for horse, is the 13th most common family name in China, shared by nearly 17 million people．That can cause no end of confusion when Mas get together, especially if those Mas also share the same given name, as many Chinese do．

    　　Ma Cheng's book-loving grandfather came up with an elegant solution to this common problem．Twenty-six years ago, when his granddaughter was born, he consulted his library of Chinese dictionaries and lighted upon a character pronounced “cheng”．Cheng looks just like the character for horse, except that it is condensed(压缩)and written three times in a row．

    　　The character is so rare that once people see it, Miss Ma said, they tend to remember both her and her name．That is one reason she likes it so much．

    　　Chinese parents' desire to give their children a spark of individuality(个性)is colliding(冲突)with the Chinese government's desire for order．Seeking to modernize its vast database on China's 1.3 billion citizens, the government's Public Security Bureau has been replacing the handwritten identity card that every Chinese must carry with a computer-readable one, complete with color photos and microchips．The new cards are harder to forge(伪造)and can be scanned at places like airports where security is a priority．

    　　The bureau's computers, however, are programmed to read only 32,252 of the roughly 55,000 Chinese characters according to a 2006 government report．The result is that Miss Ma and at least some of the 60 million other Chinese with obscure characters in their names cannot get new cards – unless they change their names to something more common．

    　　Moreover, the situation is about to get worse or, in the government's view, better．Since at least 2003, China has been working on a standardized list of characters for people to use in everyday life, including when naming children．The list will aim to control the use of obscure names．

    Crosstalk(相声)，a traditional form of comic storytelling，is making a comeback in China’s tea houses and theaters．
    Audiences can laugh the night away every Saturday at the Qianxiangyi Teahouse in Tianjin，entertained by the apprentices(学徒)of Hou Baolin，Ma Sanli or Yin Shoushan—all leading crosstalk artists of years past—for only 20 yuan($2．40)．
    The success in Tianjin has also caused the rejuvenation(复活) of crosstalk in Beijing and other places．
    Although the art form originated in Beijing in the Qing Dynasty(1644-1911)，Tianjin became a place where rising stars formed their styles and new pieces were tried out．The city was well—known nationwide for the quality of its crosstalk performances．
    Known in Chinese as xiangsheng(1iterally，“face and voice”)，crosstalk was the predominant(支配的)form of comedy throughout most of the 20th century．In the old days in Tianjin and elsewhere，temple fairs and markets were the main places for crosstalkers to perform，although they occasionally also appeared in teahouses or theaters．
    Crosstalk pieces draw on every aspect of Chinese culture，from history and folk tales to social issues of the time．Although there’re hundreds of traditional pieces，they’re constantly rewritten to suit the times and the audience, while new works are written as well．It’s one of the features that have made crosstalk a
    public art form throughout its history．
    “Crosstalk was in the doldrums(萎靡不振)with competition from other art forms，especially TV，”said Wang Xiaochun，headmaster of the Northern Storytelling Arts School of China(NSAS)．“But it has regained its status with crosstalk fans，especially young people，growing aware of its rare qualities．”
    “More and more students are coming to NSAS to study crosstalk，including some girl students，”said Wang, “They’re sure that crosstalk will have a strong market.”
    【小题1】Crosstalk means“__________ ”in Chinese．

    A．storytellingB．face and voiceC．folk tale D．dialogue
    【小题2】According to the text, crosstalk is so popular throughout its history because____________．
    A．it is constantly changed and renewedB．it is often performed at temple fairs
    C．it is different from other arts D．it is comic and humourous
    【小题3】Crosstalk makes a comeback mainly because__________．
    A．it is a popular traditional art after all
    B．the pieces contain some famous folk tales
    C．the crosstalkers make it return to teahouses
    D．the pieces are made to suit the times and the audience
    【小题4】We can learn that the future of crosstalk first lies in ____________．
    A．setting up more storytelling art schoolsB．beating TV and other arts
    C．young people’s awareness of its value D．a strong market

    Having finished her homework, Ma Li wants some music for relaxation. As usual, she starts her computer and goes to Baidu.com to download music files. But this time she is surprised when an announcement about protecting songs’ copyright bursts onto the screen. The age of free music and movie downloads may have come to an end as Web companies like Baidu are accused of pirating copyright. Lawsuits（诉讼） have been filed against four websites offering free downloads. In September 2005, a Beijing court ordered Baidu to pay recording company Shanghai Push compensation for their losses. Baidu was also told to block the links to the pirated music on the website. This caused a heated discussion on Interact file sharing.

    “Baidu’s defeat in the lawsuit shows it is not right to get copyrighted songs without paying. Downloaders may face lawsuits or fines,” said an official.

    Like many teens, Huang Ruoru, an 18-year-old girl from Puning in Guangdong Province, doesn’t think that getting music from websites is wrong. She always shares her favourite songs downloaded from Baidu with her friends. When told about the lawsuit, she began to feel a little guilty about obtaining others’ work without paying.

    However, other teenagers have different ideas. Wang Yafei, a Senior 2 girl from Jinan, Shandong Province pointed out that file sharing is a good way to promote pop singers. “If I download a song and really like it, I will buy the CD,” she said. “So what the recording companies really should concentrate on is improving their music, rather than pursuing file-sharers.”

     

    61. Which of the following best describes the passage?

    A. Downloading material can be illegal.

    B. It’s good to get free music on the Internet.     

    C. Music on the Internet is of better quality.              

    D. Baidu is a popular web company.

    62. The four web companies were put to court because _________.

    A. they got copyrighted songs without paying 

    B. they downloaded copyrighted music for people

    C. they offer free music on line

    D. they make copyrighted files for free downloads

    63. How do some of the teenagers feel while downloading free music after the lawsuit?

    A. A bit guilty.       B. Awfully sorry.      C. A little sad.      D. Extremely angry.

    64. What’s the advantage of file sharing for recording companies?

    A. Enabling people to download favorite songs.

    B. Helping to improve the music.               

    C. Making pop singers more popular.

    D. Getting more money from web companies.

    65. It can be inferred from the text that _________.

    A. Web companies are still ignoring the copyright laws.

    B. Teenagers haven’t got money to buy CDs.

    C. Teenagers are probably still downloading free music.

    D. Teenagers prefer CDs with copyright to pirated music.
