It’s about the changes that happen in Chinese society in almost 50 years. It happens in a teahouse in old Beijing and it tells us the story of Wang Lifa and his customers (顾客). Finally, it says goodbye to old Beijing and its people. The story starts in 1898 during the Qing Dynasty. It continues in 1916, and finally, it comes to an end in 1945. After 1945, Wang Lifa loses the teahouse and dies. Lao She was born in Beijing in 1899. His parents sent him to a teacher’s school in Beijing and he became a teacher. From 1924 to 1929, he taught in the University of London in the UK. He wrote many plays, novels (小说) and short stories. He was named a “People’s Artist” and a “Great Master of Language”. He was one of the greatest Chinese writers of the 20th century. In Lao She Teahouse today, waiters bring tea as well as traditional Chinese food to the customers. If you like the Beijing Opera, folk music, acrobatics (杂技) or magic shows, you can enjoy them in the teahouse. Lao She Teahouse gives a wonderful welcome to everyone from home and abroad. 11.

But how can you keep away from a fight? Here s something you can do. Be calm (冷静). Sometimes you feel so angry that you really want to teach somebody a lesson. But being angry can’t solve problems.

If you know someone is coming up behind you to attack (攻击), turn and face the person with your hands in front of your body and loudly say “stop” before walking away.

And what could you do for it? Retired soldier (退役军人) Huang Yongfu gave his answer. Huang and his wife lived in a village. After he retired in the 1970s, Huang had a lot of free time. He started painting lovely animals and people on the walls of his house for fun. Later, his neighbors asked him to paint their houses, too. Huang’s paint brush brought a second “life” to the houses in the village. In 1998, the village was to be pulled down because many villagers had left. In order to save it, Huang decided to paint every street in the village. The old man covered every wall and door with joyful colors. In 2010, some university students happened to pass by the village. They were moved by Huang’s cute and wonderful artwork. These students then started the “Save Rainbow (彩虹) Village” campaign (运动). This campaign was a success and the area was kept as an art park. Huang himself began to be known as “Grandpa Rainbow”. Now Rainbow Village has become a famous travel place. It brought a happy feeling to those who live in it. Grandpa Rainbow, now 98 years old, and his wife are still living there. It’s said that he wakes up every morning at 4 a.m. to work on maintaining (维护) his artwork. Visitors often meet him and take photos with him. 1. What did Huang Yongfu use to be? 2. What did he do after retiring in the 1970s? 3. Why did he paint every street in the village in 1998? 4.
