The bilingual (双语的) bks are frm the Translatin Series f a Hundred Jingju Classics, a prject riginated frm 2011, which is part f the effrt by the central gvernment t prmte Chinese culture verseas.
Peking Opera, with its cmplex and clrful cstumes and make-up, as well as the unique perfrmance cmbining singing, dialgue, acting and acrbatics (杂技), has becme a symbl f traditinal Chinese culture. Over the last 200 years, mre than 1, 000 Peking Opera shws have been prduced telling the mst classic histrical stries in China, as well as giving glimpses f sciety, accrding t Wang. The art frm was listed as an Intangible Cultural Heritage f Humanity (非物质文化遗产) by UNESCO in 2010. Famus perfrmers such as Mei Lanfang and Cheng Yanqiu have als taken Peking Opera abrad. And thugh freign fans are impressed by it, few understand the stries tld n stage.
T help freigners understand the art frm better Sun Ping, dean, Schl f Art, Beijing Freign Studies University, and her team have edited the new bks. Different frm previus English translatins f bks that mstly cvered the scripts (剧本) f Peking Opera plays, the new series intrduces nearly all aspects f the art frm, including the script, actrs and actresses, perfrmance skills, musical instruments and cstumes, accrding t Sun, wh is herself a highly regarded Peking Opera artist.
“It fills the blank in verseas prmtins f Peking Opera,” says Liu Jian, a prfessr at the Natinal Academy f Chinese Theater Arts. “The inheritance and prmtin f Peking Opera are very imprtant. In a sense, prmtin is even mre imprtant. The prject sets a gd example.”
Sctt Ian Rainen, an expert frm the United States, wh wrks at China Freign Languages Publishing Administratin, says he was happy t read the new bks. Freigners ften dn’t understand the plt in a Peking Opera play, but the bks intrduce the cultural and histrical backgrund, its character mdeling, cstumes and prps, artistic theries and s n.
28. Why are the set f bilingual bks released?
A. T stress the imprtance f Peking Opera.
B. T attract freigners t learn Peking Opera.

C. The benefits f releasing these bilingual bks.
D. The reasn fr peple’s attachment t Peking Opera.
30. What’s special abut these translatins f bks?
A. They cver stries abut Peking Opera.
B. They share a mre significant art value.
C. They are better in cvering the scripts f Peking Opera.
D. They are verall in shwing the features f Peking Opera.

Frm Mzart t Metallica, tns f peple enjy listening t varius types f music while they paint, write, r draw. Mst believe that music helps increase creativity, but an internatinal study cnducted by English and Swedish researchers is challenging that view. The study results were eched by scientists frm Lancaster University, and the University f Gavle, saying their findings shw music actually weakens creativity.
T reach their cnclusins, researchers had vlunteers cmplete verbal prblems designed t inspire creativity while sitting in a quiet rm, and then again while music played in the backgrund. They fund that backgrund music significantly weakened the vlunteers’ ability t cmplete tasks cnnected with verbal creativity. The team als tested backgrund nises like thse cmmnly heard in a library, but fund that such nises had n influence n subjects’ creativity.
The tasks were simple wrd games. Fr example, vlunteers were given three wrds, such as dress, rise, and flwer. Then, they were asked t find a single wrd cnnected with all three that culd be cmbined t frm a cmmn phrase r wrd. The single wrd, in this case, wuld be “sun” (sundress, sunrise, sunflwer). Vlunteers cmpleted the tasks in either a quiet rm, r while listening t tw different types f music: rck music r light music
“We fund strng evidence f weakened perfrmance when playing backgrund music in cmparisn t quiet backgrund cnditins,” says c-authr D. Neil McLatchie f Lancaster University. He and his clleagues find that music negatively influences the verbal wrking memry prcesses f the brain, preventing creativity. Als, as far as the library backgrund nises having seemingly n effect, the study’s authrs believe that was the case because library nises create a “regular state” envirnment that desn’t affect cncentratin.
“T cnclude, the findings here challenge the ppular view that music increases creativity, and instead shw that music, whatever type it is, is always a disadvantage fr creative perfrmance in prblem slving,” the study reads.
32. The underlined wrd in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by ________.
A. challengedB. acceptedC. dubtedD. heard
33. What were the vlunteers asked t d in the study?
A. T play music.B. T cmbine given wrds.
C. T create new wrds.D. T cnnect wrds with music.
34. What can we infer frm the study?
A. Quiet backgrund inspires creativity best.B. Library nise des n harm t creativity.
C. Music has a bad effect n language ability.D. Music types matter in creative perfrmance.
35. Which is the main idea f the passage?
A. Quiet Envirnments Prevent Cncentratin.B. Backgrund NiseAffects Cncentratin.
C. Cmpsing Music Weakens Creativity.D. Listening t Music Reduces Creativity.

The bilingual (双语的) bks are frm the Translatin Series f a Hundred Jingju Classics, a prject riginated frm 2011, which is part f the effrt by the central gvernment t prmte Chinese culture verseas.
Peking Opera, with its cmplex and clrful cstumes and make-up, as well as the unique perfrmance cmbining singing, dialgue, acting and acrbatics (杂技), has becme a symbl f traditinal Chinese culture. Over the last 200 years, mre than 1, 000 Peking Opera shws have been prduced telling the mst classic histrical stries in China, as well as giving glimpses f sciety, accrding t Wang. The art frm was listed as an Intangible Cultural Heritage f Humanity (非物质文化遗产) by UNESCO in 2010. Famus perfrmers such as Mei Lanfang and Cheng Yanqiu have als taken Peking Opera abrad. And thugh freign fans are impressed by it, few understand the stries tld n stage.
T help freigners understand the art frm better Sun Ping, dean, Schl f Art, Beijing Freign Studies University, and her team have edited the new bks.

Frm Mzart t Metallica, tns f peple enjy listening t varius types f music while they paint, write, r draw. Mst believe that music helps increase creativity, but an internatinal study cnducted by English and Swedish researchers is challenging that view. The study results were eched by scientists frm Lancaster University, and the University f Gavle, saying their findings shw music actually weakens creativity.
T reach their cnclusins, researchers had vlunteers cmplete verbal prblems designed t inspire creativity while sitting in a quiet rm, and then again while music played in the backgrund. They fund that backgrund music significantly weakened the vlunteers’ ability t cmplete tasks cnnected with verbal creativity. The team als tested backgrund nises like thse cmmnly heard in a library, but fund that such nises had n influence n subjects’ creativity.
The tasks were simple wrd games. Fr example, vlunteers were given three wrds, such as dress, rise, and flwer. Then, they were asked t find a single wrd cnnected with all three that culd be cmbined t frm a cmmn phrase r wrd. The single wrd, in this case, wuld be “sun” (sundress, sunrise, sunflwer). Vlunteers cmpleted the tasks in either a quiet rm, r while listening t tw different types f music: rck music r light music
“We fund strng evidence f weakened perfrmance when playing backgrund music in cmparisn t quiet backgrund cnditins,” says c-authr D. Neil McLatchie f Lancaster University. He and his clleagues find that music negatively influences the verbal wrking memry prcesses f the brain, preventing creativity. Als, as far as the library backgrund nises having seemingly n effect, the study’s authrs believe that was the case because library nises create a “regular state” envirnment that desn’t affect cncentratin.
“T cnclude, the findings here challenge the ppular view that music increases creativity, and instead shw that music, whatever type it is, is always a disadvantage fr creative perfrmance in prblem slving,” the study reads.
32. The underlined wrd in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by ________.
A. challengedB. acceptedC. dubtedD. heard
33. What were the vlunteers asked t d in the study?
A. T play music.B. T cmbine given wrds.
C. T create new wrds.D. T cnnect wrds with music.
34. What can we infer frm the study?
A. Quiet backgrund inspires creativity best.B. Library nise des n harm t creativity.
C. Music has a bad effect n language ability.D. Music types matter in creative perfrmance.
35. Which is the main idea f the passage?
A. Quiet Envirnments Prevent Cncentratin.B. Backgrund NiseAffects Cncentratin.
C. Cmpsing Music Weakens Creativity.D. Listening t Music Reduces Creativity.
