They are popular in some places in China. Do you want to know more about Chinese shadow plays and shadow puppets? Read on and you will find out more information. More than 2,000 years ago, Emperor Wu’s favorite concubine (妃子) of the Han Dynasty died of illness. The emperor missed her so much that he lost interest in everything. One day, a minister happened to see children playing with dolls (玩偶). The dolls’ shadows on the floor were vivid (生动的). Then the smart minister came up with a good idea. He made a cotton puppet of the concubine and painted it. That night, he invited the emperor to watch a puppet show behind a curtain. The emperor was very happy with the puppet show. This story was recorded in an official history book and is believed to be the origin of Chinese shadow plays. Shadow puppets were first made of paper and later from the hides of donkeys or oxen. That’s why the Chinese name for the shadow puppet is “pi ying”, which means “shadows of hides”. Shadow puppetry was very popular during the Tang and Song Dynasties in many parts of China. The stage for shadow puppet shows is a white cloth screen. Shadow puppets look similar to paper cut-outs except that their joints are connected by thread so that they can be operated freely. 19. Who made a cotton puppet of the concubine? A. Emperor Wu. B. Some children. C. The minister. 20. How did Emperor Wu feel about the puppet show? A. Satisfied. B. Angry. C. Moved. 21. What does the underlined word “stage” mean in Chinese? A. 场地 B. 效果 C. 舞台 22. Which is NOT right according to the passage? A. Emperor Wu’s favorite concubine had an illness and died. B. The minister used cotton to make a puppet of the concubine. C. The second paragraph is about the popularity of Chinese shadow plays. 23. In which part of a magazine can we read the text? A. Interesting Games B. Chinese Culture C. Famous Emperors 答案　[语篇解读]本文介绍了皮影戏的来源以及“皮影”名字的由来等内容。 19. C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Then the smart minister came up with a good idea. He made a cotton puppet of the concubine and painted it.”可知，大臣做了那个妃子模样的木偶。故答案为C。 20. A 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The emperor was very happy with the puppet show.”可知，汉武帝对表演很满意，故答案为A。 21. C 词义猜测题。画线的词是stage，根据其后的“a white cloth screen”可知，一块白色的幕布是皮影戏的“舞台”，故答案为C。 22. C 推理判断题。第二段讲的是皮影戏的起源，而不是“皮影戏的受欢迎程度”，故选项C是错误的描述。 23. B 推理判断题。本文主要介绍了和皮影戏相关的内容，因此符合题意的选项是“中国文化”，故答案为B。 （C） 请阅读下面语篇，从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出一个最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 　　There is a traditional toy called taiping nijiaojiao.
