Cross talk, a traditional form of comic storytelling, is making a comeback in China's tea houses and theaters.
Audiences can laugh the night away every Saturday at the Qianxiangyi Teahouse in Tianjin, entertained by the apprentices (徒弟) of Hou Baolin, Ma Sanli or Yin Shoushan—all leading cross talk artists of years past—for only 20 yuan.
The success in Tianjin has also caused the rejuvenation (复活) of cross talk in Beijing and other places.
Although the art form originated in Beijing in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), Tianjin became a place where rising stars formed their styles and new pieces were tried out. The city was wellknown nationwide for the quality of its cross talk performances.
Known in Chinese as xiangsheng (literally, “face and voice”), cross talk was the chief form of comedy throughout most of the 20th century. In the old days in Tianjin and elsewhere, temple fairs and markets were the main places for crosstalkers to perform, although they occasionally also appeared in teahouses or theaters.
Cross talk pieces draw on every aspect of Chinese culture, from history and folk tales to social issues of the time. Although there are hundreds of traditional pieces, they're constantly rewritten to suit the times and the audience, while new works are written as well. It's one of the features that have made cross talk a public art form throughout its history.
“Cross talk was in the doldrums (萎靡不振) with competition from other art forms, especially TV,” said Wang Xiaochun, headmaster of the Northern Storytelling Arts School of China (NSAS). “But it has regained its status with cross talk fans, especially young people, growing aware of its rare qualities.”
“More and more students are coming to NSAS to study cross talk, including some girl students,” said Wang. “We're sure that cross talk will have a strong market.”
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国相声的形式及其发展历程。
1.What can we learn about cross talk from the text?
A.Cross talk didn't appear until the Qing Dynasty.
B.Cross talk first arose in Tianjin.
C.Cross talk was mainly performed at teahouses in the past.
D.Cross talk was the most popular art form in the 20th century.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Although the art form originated in Beijing in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911)”可知,相声直到清朝才出现。故选A。
2.What does cross talk mean in Chinese?
A.Storytelling. B.Face and voice.
C.Folk tale. D.Dialogue.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Known in Chinese as xiangsheng (literally, ‘face and voice’)”可知,中文的相声意味着 “脸和声音”。故选B。
3.Why has cross talk been a public art form?
A.It is a popular traditional art after all.
B.The pieces contain some famous folk tales.
C.The crosstalkers make it return to teahouses.
D.The pieces are adapted to suit the times and the audience.
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“Although there are hundreds of traditional pieces ... made cross talk a public art form throughout its history.(虽然有数百件传统作品,但它们不断被重写以适应时代和观众,同时也创作新作品。这是历史上相声成为公共艺术形式的特色之一。)”可知,相声成为一种公共艺术形式是因为它是为了迎合时代和观众的需要而制作的。故选D。
4.We can learn that the future of cross talk first lies in ________.
A.setting up more storytelling art schools
B.beating TV and other arts
C.young people's understanding of its value
D.a strong market
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“But it has regained its status with cross talk fans, especially young people, growing aware of its rare qualities.(但它已经重新恢复地位,拥有相声迷,尤其是年轻人,他们越来越意识到它独特的品质。)”可推知,相声的未来首先在于年轻人对其价值的理解。故选C。
B
“We can't play tennis because you don't have a net.” I was standing on a suburban street when Eric, the boy next door, said that to me. Two rackets (球拍) in hand, I felt my face burning and anger spread through my 10yearold body.
“I don't have net? You don't have net. Your father and mother don't have net,” I yelled, firing at him with what I thought was a hurt. I just had to make him understand that I had plenty of net. Eric was speechless. He admitted that indeed, he and his family had neither a tennis court nor a net, but he seemed unable to make sense of my reaction to this shortcoming.
As a new arrival to the United States, armed with limited English words, I had thought that “net” meant “manners”. Eric didn't want to play with me because I lacked good manners. It was only after I stormed home that my brother, who had been in America for a decade, explained where I had gone wrong.
Language barriers are the most common communication barriers. Even when we speak the same language, understanding and being understood can be difficult, not to mention communicating in a foreign language. And confusion and amusement follows—a phenomenon that is common in sitcom (情景喜剧). For example, in a 1970s British sitcom, a foreign student says “squeeze (捏) me”, instead of “excuse me”, to his young principal.
That's the thing with languages. Though the languages are technically the same, the meanings, implications and interpretations of words are different. No two people really speak the same one. But in order to be understood, we should be willing to use more words and expressions and have the patience to find out more about what is happening to get a whole picture of the situation.
篇章导读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要介绍了由于语言障碍,作者和朋友发生了一件尴尬的事情,引出“即使说同一种语言,人们之间也容易出现无法理解的鸿沟”的现象并提出了解决的方法。
5.Why was the author angry?
A.Eric refused to lend him a bat.
B.He thought Eric was rude to him.
C.Eric laughed at his limited English.
D.He had to play tennis without a net.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据第一段中的“We can't play tennis because you don't have a net. (我们不能打网球,因为你没有网。)”和第三段中的“Eric didn't want to play with me because I lacked good manners.(Eric (埃里克)不想和我玩,因为我没有礼貌。)”可推知,作者生气是因为作者认为Eric对他很粗鲁。故选B。
6.What made the author fail to understand Eric properly?
A.His bad manners. B.His poor background.
C.His limited vocabulary. D.His violent character.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知,作者不理解Eric,主要是因为作者自己词汇有限。故选C。
7.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “stormed” in Paragraph 3?
A.Went angrily. B.Left hurriedly.
C.Attacked suddenly. D.Disappeared completely.
答案:A
解析:词义猜测题。根据前文内容可知,作者误解了Eric的话,认为Eric嫌他没礼貌,所以气冲冲地回家了。由此可推知,stormed意为“气冲冲地走了”。故选A。
8.What does the author think of language barriers?
A.They are worsened by sitcoms.
B.They contribute to cultural differences.
C.They can be overcome by sending and receiving ideas.
D.They exist even between speakers of the same language.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“Even when we speak the same language, understanding and being understood can be difficult, not to mention communicating in a foreign language.(即使我们说的是同一种语言,理解和被理解也会很困难,更不用说用外语交流了。)”可推知,作者认为语言障碍甚至存在于使用同一种语言的人之间。故选D。
