主题：激发现代奥运会灵感的英国小镇

The Olympic Games are now a global event, but few know the modern origins （起源） lie in the sleepy Shropshire town of Much Wenlock.

Started in 1850, the Wenlock Olympian Games soon attracted （吸引）thousands of audiences （观众） and competitors（参赛选手）from as far as London and Liverpool (although there was always at least one “locals-only” activity to keep local people happy). The games are still held today, although with a more traditional repertoire, along with traditional country sports.

Much Wenlock's 1.3-mile Olympian Trail tells the story of how the local event became international，wending（行，前进）its way through a typical English town centre from its starting point at the Much Wenlock Museum and Visitor Information Centre.

An exhibition of 19th century Chinese railway line was held at the Train World Museum in Brussels.

The introduction to the exhibition is brief but mentions the “increased interference（干涉） of Western powers”（1）              China, like the two Opium Wars(2)          the British and the unequal Treaty of Nanking （《南京条约》），in which China was forced to give up Hong Kong.

He described the construction（建设） of the railway（6）          a“ really amazing industrial story”, but was little known to the outside world, including among Belgians. “And the idea for the exhibit came up because this year is the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations（外交关系）between Belgium and China，” Denuit said.

传统文化趣味读

超越国界的中国文化

Last year, more than 30 million people were said to have started learning a language on Duolingo（“多邻国”软件），with Chinese becoming one of those growing fastest in popularity.

James Yang's Really Language Institute is one of the organizations to teach the Chinese language. Yang has been involved in international Chinese education for 20 years. Of many thousands of people doing online courses, Yang says, most are from countries participating in the BRI (Belt and Road Initiative）（“一带一路”倡议），especially in Southeast Asia.

Yang and other teachers in the company have integrated（使融入）Chinese culture into the syllabus （教学大纲） just as many others do. Interestingly， he says， despite（尽管）Chinese traditions，foreigners are sometimes more interested in China's “new four inventions”, namely, e-commerce, mobile payment, bicycle-sharing and high-speed rail.

“When we talk about Chinese culture we always focus on the traditional part, but in fact, they are also interested in online shopping and online payments because China is doing so well in these fields. I think we should introduce modern China and its culture to them too.”

Samuel Esteban's romance with Chinese began when he was a high school student. He soon had many Chinese friends who gave him insights（了解）into China＇s culture，which stirred（调动）his interest even more. “It's just amazing that China has so many years of history,” Esteban says.“It's really interesting learning about China's dynasties and how they worked and how the country was formed.”

（5）but。前文提到比利时有卓越的铁路专业知识储备，后文提到，相比其他西方列强，比利时的帝国主义野心较小，前后句意发生转折，所以用连词but。
