Day and night across China, groups of middle-aged retirees, mostly women, gather together to dance in open space, like squares and parks. They are known as “guang chang wu da ma”. Their love for square dancing has made them a national phenomenon.　

However, some people don’t think highly of it. Their music is too loud, and they take up too much public space. Besides, they even dance at improper (not proper) places--- such as the square in front of the Louvre in Paris, where Chinese tourists broke into a dance last year.　

Even so, the dancers are growing in number and style. Li Dong,46, is a pioneer in this field. “In addition to keeping fit, square dancing has become so popular because older people who are free from work and from raising children want to be connected with one another. But I think that square dancing has a deeper meaning.”　

By teaching herself different dances, such as Latin, Tango and Cha-cha, Li adds variety (花样) to square dancing. “Although we are old, we are curious and want to try different dance style,” she said,” because square dancing has attracted(吸引)so much attention, I want to take it seriously.”　

As for people’s objection(反对)，Li says her team has taken the suggestion of turning down the volume(音量)and dancing at proper sites.” We are not a trouble at all.”

1.Why does the writer mention Chinese tourists broke into a dance in front of the Louvre in Paris?

A. Because their music was too loud .　　 B. Because they weren’t dancing at a proper place.

C. Because they took up too much space.　　 D. Because they wanted to show their dancing to others.

2.Which of the following is NOT the reason why older people love square dancing?

A. It can help them keep healthy.　　 B. They want to communicate with one another.

C. They are free from work and raising children.　　 D. They want to attract people’s attention.

3.As for people’s objection, Li has _____

A. taught herself different dances like Latin, etc.　　 B. danced better than before.

C. put on beautiful dresses.　　 D. tried to make less noise and choose proper sites.

4.Which words can be used to describe Li Dong?

A. Curious and creative(有创造性的).　　 B. Helpful and careful.

C. Kind and funny.　　 D. Patient and active.

5.This passage most probably comes from?

A. A story book　　 B. A science magazine　　 C. A newspaper　　 D. A text book
