Frm the very beginning f ur studies, we have knwn that many Chinese characters can change their prnunciatins in different cntexts(语境).
But hw will yu feel if yu're tld that many f the prmunciatins we learned in textbks will be cnsidered incrrect?
Last mnth, an article titled“Chinese characters whse prnunciatins have changed”caused heated discussins n Sina Weib. The article claimed (声称) that sme prnunciatins, which were previusly (先前) cnsidered t have been misread, are nw deemed (认为) crrect. They include the characters in well-knwn sentences frm ancient pems.
One example is by Du Mu frm the Tang dynasty “I g by slanting stny path t the cld hill; Where rise white cluds, there appear cttages(村舍) and bwers(凉亭).”
Many internet users disagreed with the changes. They argued that altering prnunciatins wuld“change the rhyme f the sentences in pems, ruining the beauty f Chinese literature”.
Accrding t CGTN, supprters f the change say“This is hw language advances, and the prnunciatins shuld adap t t the needs f sciety, rather than remain in the past.”
An fficial frm the Ministry f Educatin respnded, saying that mst f the s-called“new”prnunciatins have nt yet been cnfirmed. Hwever, accrding t the fifth and sixth editins f the Mdern Chinese Dictinary, quite a few pinyin spellings have already been changed: 呆板 (dai, first tne, 原ai, secnd tne) and 确凿 (za, secnd tne, 原 zu, furth tne).
“In sme sense, prnunciatin is a chice between the mst ppular versin and the versin with the lngest histry,”prfessr Zhang Yiwu tld China Daily.
47. Many Chinese characters will change their based n different cntexts.
A. numbers B. meanings C. spellings D. prnunciatins
48. The article which was heatedly discussed talks abut .
A. sme misread prnunciatins are right nw
B. Chinese characters can change their meanings in the same cntexts
C. many false prnunciatins in Chinese
D. sme well-knwn sentences in ancient pems

A.曲径通幽处,禅房花木深。

C.远上寒山石径斜,白云生处有人家。
D.两岸青山相对出,孤帆一片日边来。
50. Why d peple supprt(支持) the change?
A. Because they want t make a new language.
