John Smith is an exchange student from New York. Here is a letter to his friend in his hometown.

Dear David,

How time flies! It's been 3 months since I came to China. I'm having a great time on my student exchange program here. So far, I've completely got used to the life here and have known a lot about traditional Chinese culture. I'd like to share some with you.

In China, there are many different kinds of traditional art forms, such as paper cutting, Chinese clay art and so on. Among them, the kite interests me most. The first ancient Chinese kite appeared more than 2,000 years ago. Then flying kites was spread into Japan, Korea and Malaysia during the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. Kites are regarded as the earliest craft (飞行器). They played an important role in the process of inventing the plane.

Tea culture is important in China. Tea was discovered as a kind of drink by accident about 5,000 years ago. It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. It didn't appear in England until around 1660. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. Now tea has become one of the most popular drinks around the world.

Lastly, I'd like to tell you something about one of the traditional Chinese festivals — the Mid-Autumn Festival. It is on the fifteenth day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar (阴历). Chinese people have been celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival and enjoying mooncakes for centuries.

If you'd like to know more about traditional Chinese culture, I will talk about it in the next letter.

Best wishes!

yours,

Resting her phone on a stand and making the light more suitable, 49-year-old Lyu Min started her livestreaming session — her daily job during the COVID-19 outbreak. Dressed in a qipao, a traditional Chinese dress, Lyu started the livestreaming session from her workshop at 10 in the morning, sharing the art of making Chinese knots with many handicraft(手工艺) lovers. Lyu, an inheritor(继承人) of the art of making Chinese knots, which is listed as an intangible(非物质) cultural heritage, became a livestreaming host.

She designed a special Chinese knot to express her thanks to the medics who were sent to support Wuhan several months ago.

Languages are powerful, sometimes more than one can imagine .Most recently an ancient saying“山川异域,风月同天”has deeply touched the Chinese people, which means even though the landscapes are different, we share the wind and moon under the same sky.

The saying was printed on packages of masks sent to Wuhan, Hubei Province from Japan when the novel coronavirus broke out in China. On the packages, there were also Chinese and Japanese national flags, as well as encouraging Chinese characters “加油,中国”. It’s not only the friendship behind the masks, but also the special beauty of the ancient Chinese language.

Although it is written in ancient Chinese language, the saying is from a Japanese prince. The ancient saying first appeared on the frocks(袈裟) which were sent to the monks in the Chinese Tang dynasty.

The Chinese monk Jianzhen was touched by these Chinese characters at that time and decided to start his journey to Japan. He tried six times in 11 years before finally arriving in the country and then helped a lot with the development of Japanese arts and medical studies .Jianzhen was known as the messenger of culture between China and Japan. He was remembered by the people of both countries.

Now once again, the Chinese are deeply touched by the meaning in the ancient saying : understanding, sharing, and support. It feels like walking into the house from outdoors in the freezing winter and having a cup of hot tea. The warmth is inside.

1.What can be seen on the packages sent to Wuhan from Japan?

A.all kinds of masks. B.The Chinese national flag

C.The beautiful scene of China D.The beautiful scene of Japan

When American mothers work late, their children sometimes cook their own dinners. Americans eat lots of snacks, and get cheap meals like hamburgers and French fries from restaurants. These are called"fast food"because people don't have to wait long for their order. Now more and more people find them a problem because they aren't healthy.
