21、Ancient (古代的) China produced many types of beautiful works of art. Among them, calligraphy (书法), poetry (诗歌) and painting were the most famous. Often they would be put together in art. These became important starting with the Song dynasty (宋朝).
Calligraphy is the art of handwriting. In the old time the Chinese considered writing as an important form of art. Calligraphers would practice for years to learn to write perfectly, but with style. Each of the over 40,000 characters (字) needed to be written correctly. And each stroke (笔画) in a character had to be written in a certain order.
Poetry was also an important form of art. Great poets were famous all over the country, but all educated people were expected to write poetry. During the Tang dynasty, poetry was so important that writing poetry was part of the examinations to become a civil servant (文官) and work for the government.
Chinese painting was often connected with calligraphy. It is one of the oldest artistic traditions in the world. The most traditional way of Chinese painting is known as “national” or “native painting” (国画), which is quite different from western painting. People can draw mountains, homes, birds, trees and water on it.

22、 The forest fire(火)broke out at 6 pm on March 30 at a remote spot in the 3,700 meters high mountains in Sichuan.
Local government(政府)sent more than 600 people to put out the fire. Five planes poured about 65 tonnes(公吨) of water on to the fire. 5 hectares(公顷) of forest were ruined while the fire was dying down on April.
Sadly, thirty people, including 27 firefighters(消防员)and three locals(本地人), who died while fighting it. They were called martyrs(烈士), people mourn(哀悼) for the people who died in the forest fire.
On April 6, no public entertainment activities will be held on that day. An official said it was caused by wind, combustibles( 易燃物)and dry air, a firefighter, said that "the fire came on so suddenly when the trees were burned down within seconds. ""At that time, we were watching TV when we heard a huge(巨大)sound and saw a wall of fire rocket up" a man lived nearby said. "I have never seen anything like this during my life. I was so scared that I couldn't think clearly.”

23、I have a rule for travel-never carry a map. I prefer to ask for direction.
Foreign visitors are often puzzled (困惑的) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”
In the country of the American Midwest, usually there are not many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”
People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure (测量) distance by telling time. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know.
People in Mexico never answer “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan think that “I don’t know” is not polite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A visitor can get very, very lost in Yucatan!
One thing will help you everywhere. You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that direction, and you may find the post office!
【1】What do you think the word “landmarks” means? It means ________.
A.street names
B.building names
C.hotels, markets and bus stops
D.buildings or places which are easily seen
【2】In which place do people tell distance by telling time?
A.Japan.
B.The American Midwest.
C.Los Angeles, California.
D.Mexico.
【3】Which of the following is wrong?
A.Travelers can learn about people’s customs (习俗) by asking questions about directions.
B.People in some places give directions in miles, but people in other places give directions by telling time.
C.A person’s body language can help you understand directions.
D.People in different places always give directions in the same way-they use street names.
