But Korean-Canadian actress Sandra Oh has made history by doing so. She became the first Asian woman to host the 76th Golden Globe Awards (金球奖) last month. But that was not all. She also took home the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress for her role as a secret agent (神秘特工) on the show Killing Eve. With her 2006 Golden Globe award for best supporting actress for her role on Grey's Anatomy (《实习医生格蕾》), she is now the first Asian actress to win more than one Golden Globe. Born to a traditional family, Oh was expected to study hard and get a common job. But Oh loved acting and decided to make it her career. But some say that Hollywood is not that friendly to Asian actors. For a long time, Oh only got supporting roles. Oh took every role seriously and tried to play them realistically. She played the devoted doctor Cristina Yang on Grey’s Anatomy for nearly ten years. Cristina Yang wasn’t a traditional Asian character on the show, according to Vanity Fair. When she was offered a lead role on Killing Eve, she was surprised. "After being told to see things a certain way for a long time, you realize, Oh my God! They brainwashed me!" she told Huffpost.

Chinese TV drama The Age of Awakening(《觉醒年代》tells the story of how the Communist Party of China (CPC) was founded in1921. It remains a hot topic on social media, where discussion shows that it has played a positive role in educating young people about China's revolutionary history. The TV series celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the CPC has won high praise online. The stories of the young people in the drama—who gave everything, even their lives, to the revolution - have touched a large number of viewers. The storytelling in the show has also been hailed by viewers for successfully showing the depth of the CPC's history and spirit, as well as the warmth of China and every family in the country. Many audiences were inspired to find background information about the series and commented that this was their first time to voluntarily learn the history about the founding of the CPC and the country. “I read many of Lu Xun's novels such as A Madman's Diary when I was in elementary school, but I couldn't understand why he wrote them or the angry feelings hiding in the characters. After watching the drama, I read these novels again and found l can now understand what they wanted to convey to readers,” said Li Lin, a 29-year-old viewer. Some school teachers have been showing video clips(片段) from the series in classes to arouse students' interest in the time period and help them learn more about history. A junior high school teacher from Taiyuan,Shanxi Province, said that this has proven effective as some students told her after class that the drama had left a strong impression on them.

Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. Similarly, music is a part of many people’s lives, whether it is played on the radio on your drive to work or played in a concert. Both language and music play important roles in our culture and here are some of their similarities. Both language and music have a writing system. In English we record language using the alphabet（字母表）, which is a collection of letters. Similarly, we use notes to keep a record of music. Just as you are reading this collection of letters and find meaning in it, musicians read notes and create meaning in the form of music which we can hear. So just as you read English, you can also read music. By writing pieces of text or music, we are able to share experiences through time. I can read or hear the ideas of someone who lived hundreds of years ago, which is really quite exciting. Both vary with culture. You can make a good guess at where someone is from by listening to the language they use. In the same way, we know that styles of music are different around the world, giving us the opportunity to explore many differentcultures through their music and providing us with music for every situation. This also means that there is something for everyone! Even if you don’t like Britpop melodies（旋律）, you may love the energy of Latin American salsa music. Both share emotion. How do you know I am angry? Of course you may be able to see it on my face, but you will know for sure through my words. Similarly, music can sound angry, sad or happy. Music can show you exactly how the composer was or is feeling, and allow us to share that emotion. When you feel happy, you may want to sing and dance to a happy song to celebrate your happiness, while you probably want to listen to sad music when you are feeling down. I think we have all used music to express or process our emotions, often combining it with language in the form of song lyrics（歌词） Similarities 81 ▲ language and music Having a writing system Language is 82 ▲ with the alphabet—a collection of letters expressing plenty of meanings and ideas. Music uses notes for 83 ▲ a record. Language and music are written and heard to share 84 ▲ through time. Varying with 85▲ Music may have a local colour because of its culture. Those different styles of music 86 ▲ us music for every situation. Sharing emotion The words will 87 ▲ tell the writer’s feelings and music shows us the 88 ▲ feelings as well. We can express or process our emotions by combining music with language in the 89 ▲ of song lyrics. Conclusion: Both language and music are of great 90 ▲ to our culture. 八、书面表达（共 1 题，满分 15 分） 近日，学校正进行“才艺之星”评比，假如你是李明，请根据以下表格信息，写一篇演讲稿，内容要点如下： 基本信息 15岁，九年级 个人经历 从小就梦想成为一名成功的歌手； 8岁开始学吉他，多次在吉他比赛中获奖； 现在，经常边弹边唱，而且打算举办一个小型个人演唱会； 兴趣爱好 听古典音乐，认为其有持久的价值； 观看访谈节目，因为节目中有许多名人谈论他们的生活； 心中偶像 姓名：…… 理由：……. 要求：1. 演讲稿必须包括所给内容要点，要求语义通顺，意思连贯，条理清晰，字迹工整，词数 90个词左右,文稿开头和结尾已给出，不计入词数。 2. “…….”处须用2-3句话展开合理想象，作适当发挥； 3. 文中不得出现真实的姓名，校名及地名。 Good afternoon，everyone.
