Song of Dong (侗族大歌),a national intangible cultural heritage in China.Her hometown Zaidai Village in Guizhou,southwestern China,is home to the Grand Song of the Dong ethnic group.The Grand Song of Dong dates from more than 2,500 years ago.The way Dong singers use their vocal cords (声带) is different from how formally trained singers do.It is a folk chorus with multi-parts,no conductor,and no accompaniment.Organically growing from their natural surroundings,it is recognized internationally as “the sound of Nature”.Before the Dong people had a writing system in 1958,the Dong culture,their history and stories were all recorded by means of songs.As a Dong saying goes,“Rice feeds the body and songs enrich the soul.”The Dong people sing right from their childhood.While not singing,they all work in their rice field.Guanmei has been singing the Grand Song of Dong all her life,making her a famous singing teacher in her hometown and nearby areas.“The songs are our means of passing on wisdom,knowledge and life experiences to others.I will not exist in this world 100 years later,but Grand songs will.I’m honored to do this job,”Guanmei said.Kind-hearted,Guanmei has been volunteering to teach the Grand Song of Dong to the Dong children for over 30 years.Now she has more than 300 students.Guanmei is pleased to see the village children come to her house willingly when they have free time.“Nowadays,more and more young people leave the village and settle in cities.Decades later,the Dong children out of the village might know nothing about Grand songs.We should do something just now.It’s our mission.What is once lost might be lost forever,”added Guanmei.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一位女性为保持侗族文化的活力所做的努力。1.What makes the Grand Song of Dong known as “the sound of Nature”?

work on New Year’s Eve,so the shift(轮班)went to me.I kissed my family goodbye and went off to spend the night in the hospital.It was a thankless job.At 9 pm,the ambulance brought in a man in his 60s who was having a heart attack.His face was pale,and he was frightened.The whole night I did my best to save his life.Before I left in the morning to spend New Year with my family,I stopped by to see how he was doing.It was still tough,but he had survived the night and was sleeping.The following year I got New Year’s Eve duty again.At 9pm sharp,the ward clerk told me there was a couple who wanted to speak with me.When I approached them,the man introduced himself as Mr Lee and said,“You probably don’t remember me,but last New Year’s Eve you saved my life.Thank you for the year you gave me.” He and his wife hugged me,handed me a small gift,and left.The following year a new doctor had joined the group,but I wanted to see if Mr and Mrs Lee would return.This time,I volunteered for the shift.I kept an eye on the door.Once again,at exactly 9 pm,the Lees appeared,carrying a warmly wrapped bundle.It was their new grandchild.Mr Lee,his family and I spent 13 New Year’s Eves together.In the later years the staff all knew about the story and would work to give me time with him in the break room,where we spent a half-hour each New Year’s Eve.注意:续写词数应为150个左右。Last year I saw Mrs Lee alone in the hospital with a gift for me.    I carefully opened the package and found a crystal(水晶)bell inside with the word “Friendship” engraved(雕刻) on it.    参考范文Last year I saw Mrs Lee alone in the hospital with a gift for me. Mrs Lee looked pale.She told me Mr Lee died from another heart attack two days ago.He had never forgotten our appointment,so he prepared the last gift days ago.They lived with a grateful heart and had a meaningful life for as long as 13 years.The appointment is a reminder of the fortune they got from me.Mrs Lee then handed me a package.I carefully opened the package and found a crystal bell inside with the word “Friendship” engraved on it. Seeing the bell,I looked back on the New Year’s Eves spent with the Lees and the friendship between us.Now,my family,my friends and I ring that bell on every New Year’s Eve at exactly 9 pm,offering our best wishes to the man who we won’t forget.The bell always reminds us of being helpful to others and thankful to people who have helped me.
