Jia Ling Stuns with Toned Abs in “YOLO”
Jia Ling, known for her comedic prowess and infectious personality, has long been a fixture in the Chinese entertainment industry. She's also cemented her foray into directing and now returns with YOLO. It's her second major screen production, following a massive success in her directorial debut film Hi,Mom in 2021.
Jia Ling's latest film has finally hit the big screen as part of the Spring Festival movies in 2024. But it's not just the movie itself that's causing a stir-it's the 41-year-old actress's stunning physical transformation.In the early teasers for YOLO, which follows a complete homebody who takes up boxing, audiences caught glimpses of Jia Ling's dedication to her role as a boxer. She had shed an impressive 50kg (60 to be exact) in a span of six months. However, it wasn't until the movie's release that viewers truly got to witness the extent of her transformation.
In the new poster for YOLO, viewers finally see a clear glimpse of Jia Ling's fruits of labor. She reveals a toned figure after adopting a high-intensity fitness regimen that not only slimmed her down but also sculpted her physique. Jia Ling's abs actually trended number one on the Weibo hot search. Despite having a slim figure in the past, the actress-director gained prominence in the comedy scene, known to carry extra weight for years, making her recent transformation all the more remarkable.
It's not uncommon to see transformations for the sake of the storyline. Actors can wear prosthetics or others go the extra mile with extreme weight transformations. Jia Ling's journey to shed weight was not just about slimming down; it was about building muscle and strength and she's remained steadfast in her commitment. However, Jia Ling has been adamant that YOLO is not a film about weight loss. Instead, it's a story about empowerment and self-discovery-a message that resonates deeply with audiences of all ages.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My 11-year-old daughter,Elizabeth, started to talk about quitting swimming, which broke my heart because she loves swimming. So when the swim season began, I cut a deal with her. She would practice three times a week and try really hard. I wouldn't make her compete in the swim meets. Elizabeth does not like swim meets. She gets horribly nervous but not because she wants to win. She doesn't care if she wins.
写作任务
Recently, Elizabeth's team announced a special swim night: Members 11 and older would swim a timed 50 meters relay. It wasn't exactly a meet, because it would involve only team members. That was my view.Elizabeth argued that it absolutely was a meet because there would be races. I told Elizabeth I really wanted her to go.She fought back angrily but finally agreed.
When the day of the special swim night arrived, Elizabeth was nervous. She was the youngest person and shorter by at least a foot than most of the other kids. She panicked when it was time for the T-shirt relay.The relay works like this:One person from each relay team puts on a T-shirt, a pair of socks and a swim cap; swims 50 meters; and gets out of the pool. She takes off the clothes and puts them on the next person, who then swims 50 meters. This continues until everyone on the team has completed a lap.
Then it was Elizabeth's turn to swim. She seemed to swim faster in the T-shirt and socks than she did when she wasn't wearing them. Approaching the halfway mark, Elizabeth was in the lead. Suddenly,somebody noticed that one of Elizabeth's socks had fallen off and was floating (漂)in the pool.“She has to get that sock on before the end of the race,” a swimming official told Elizabeth's team, “or you will be disqualified.”
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Everybody on her team started screaming“Elizabeth! Get the sock!”__
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
On the ride home, she shared her moment of winning again and again. ___

读后续写四步曲
第一步 通读全文,理清脉络
1.读要素,弄懂故事大意
本文大意:作者的女儿Elizabeth要参加游泳比赛,赛前很紧张,比赛时袜子却脱落了,如果不及时穿上就会被取消资格。
2.读人物,理清人物关系
I, Elizabeth, her team members and a swimming official
3.读时态,确定主体时态
一般过去时为主
写作思路
4.读结构,了解叙述方式
第1段:Elizabeth 想要放弃游泳,作者和她达成了一个协议。
第2段:作者想让Elizabeth参赛,她很生气但最终同意了。
第3段:比赛之前Elizabeth既紧张又惶恐不安。
第4段:比赛时,Elizabeth的袜子脱落,要求及时穿上,否则将被取消资格。
5.读语言,把握语言特色
原文中的语言特色:
(1)情感描写
①My 11-year-old daughter,Elizabeth,started to talk about quitting swimming, which broke my heart...
②She gets horribly nervous but not because she wants to win.
③When the day of the special swim night arrived, Elizabeth was nervous.
④She panicked when it was time for the T-shirt relay.
(2)动作描写
①She takes off the clothes and puts them on the next person, who then swims 50 meters.
②Approaching the halfway mark,Elizabeth was in the lead.
③Suddenly,somebody noticed that one of Elizabeth's socks had fallen off and was floating (漂)in the pool.
第二步 依据首句,构思框架
1.读懂两段首句
第一段首句译文:________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________
第二段首句译文:________________________________________________
第一段框架:队友采取的措施及比赛结果。
第二段框架:Elizabeth对比赛的回顾和感悟。
她的团队里的每个人都开始大叫:“Elizabeth!拿袜
子!”
在回家的路上,她一次又一次地分享自己获胜的时刻。
2.写好两个衔接句
第一段首句后的衔接句:However, she couldn't hear them.
第二段首句后的衔接句:She talked about how scared she was when someone grabbed her foot and how funny it was when she came to the finish and how great the night was.
3.写好一个结尾句:I told her that in my professional opinion she was absolutely right.
第三步 增加细节,展开续写
基于第一段的框架,我们可以补充以下细节:Elizabeth听不到队员们的喊叫声(必须采取非常措施)→(一个队友跳进水里)队友帮她捡袜子(告诉Elizabeth穿上袜子)→(另一道的选手要超越,Elizabeth奋力游泳)取得成功。
基于第二段的框架,我们可以补充以下细节:回家路上分享成功(袜子脱落时的恐惧、最终胜利时的兴奋)→Elizabeth的感悟(如果这是奥运会,他们队也一定会赢)。
第四步 检查优化,整洁誊写
Everybody on her team started screaming“Elizabeth! Get the sock!”However, she couldn't hear them. It was time for desperate measures. A girl on my daughter's team jumped in the pool, grabbed the sock, and swam after Elizabeth.“You have to put the sock on,”the girl screamed. The girl in Lane Two was about to pass Elizabeth. With the sock finally on, Elizabeth swam her heart out for the last 15 meters. It was close. But Elizabeth beat the other girl to the wall for the victory.
On the ride home, she shared her moment of winning again and again.She talked about how scared she was when someone grabbed her foot and how funny it was when she came to the finish and how great the night was. She told me that if the T-shirt relay was an Olympic event-and she is quite sure it should be-her team would win the gold medal. I told her that in my professional opinion she was absolutely right.
用英语讲故事
The Palace Culture 皇宫文化
皇宫是皇帝和他的后妃、子女们居住的地方。在中国几千年的历史长河中,秦有阿房宫,西汉有长乐宫,唐有太极宫,明清有紫禁城。紫禁城是明、清两代的皇宫,也是当今世界上现存规模最大、建筑最雄伟、保存最完整的古代宫殿和古建筑群。
The Forbidden City 紫禁城
The Forbidden City used to be the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties. It is nearly 600 years old, with construction started in 1406 and completed in 1420. The principles of Feng-Shui, the ancient Chinese system of geomancy(风水学),governed the whole process.
紫禁城是明清两代的皇宫。它的历史将近600年,始建于1406年,于1420年完工。它依据中国古代风水学而建造。
Yellow is the color of the Emperor. Thus almost all roofs in the Forbidden City bear yellow glazed tiles. There are only two exceptions. The library at the Pavilion of Literary Profundity (文渊阁) had black tiles because black was associated with water, and thus fire-prevention. Similarly, the Crown Prince's residences (住处) have green tiles because green was associated with wood, and thus growth.
黄色代表高贵的帝王皇权。因此,紫禁城几乎所有的屋顶布置的都是黄色的琉璃瓦,只有两处例外:那便是作为藏书馆的文渊阁——它的瓦是黑色的,寓意防火;另一处为皇太子的寝宫,上面是绿色瓦,象征树木成长的含义。
Chinese Imperial Cuisine中国御膳
Imperial cuisine was served mainly to the emperors, their wives and concubines(妃子),and the royal families. The characteristics of the Chinese imperial cuisine are the elaborate cooking methods and the strict selection of raw materials, which are often extremely expensive, rare, or complicated in preparation(配制).The most famous Chinese imperial cuisine restaurants are both located in Beijing: Fang Shan in Beihai Park and Ting Li Restaurant in the Summer Palace.
御膳是供奉皇帝、妃子和皇族用的膳。中国御膳,烹调精细,选料考究,稀奇昂贵,配制复杂。中国最著名的御膳餐馆都在北京:北海公园的仿膳和颐和园的听鹂馆。
