Ten Chinese PhD students are demanding that Beijing Normal University Professor Yu Dan be away from her television show on CCTV10. They argue that her on-air explanations of Confucius’s Analects (孔子《論語》) are “incorrect and misleading”.
Yu is known for explaining Confucius’s Analects to a TV audience. But some complain that her explanations are unfaithful to Chinese tradition.
But Yu doesn’t seem to worry too much about her critics, saying, “It’s a matter of personal choice. Some like KFC, while others like McDonalds.”
STEALING some online gamer’s password might seem less harmful than credit card theft. It does keep the victim from wearing himself out all night playing. But it is not all that nice, says 19-year-old Zhang Qiwen, in Shanghai.
Last August, Zhang accidentally downloaded a Trojan while playing Warcraft. The Trojan is a type of virus used by hackers to steal people’s passwords. Overnight the Trojan transferred all the “gold” (game credits) from Zhang’s private account to an unknown account. Zhang hopes the police will find and punish the thief, who can also pocket some cash since the stolen “gold” can go on sale online.
New England’s largest indoor public garden has opened here in a historic park, and officials expect it to become a center for learning about plants as well as a top attraction for visitors.
The glass-walled Roger Williams Park Botanical Center, which opened on March 2, offers a tropical garden, an orchid garden, and a Mediterranean room with a collection of citrus trees. The center also has two classrooms and will offer gardening classes provided by the University of Rhode Island.
Roger Williams Park, named for the city’s 17th-century founder, also has a zoo. The park already attracts more than 2 million visitors a year, and Providence Mayor David Cicilline said that he expects the new center will attract more and more visitors to Providence.
小題1:Which of the following statements is true?
A．Confucius’s Analects is like KFC or McDonalds in China now.
B．19-year-old Zhang was angry because a hacker stole his “gold”.
C．The Trojan is a new online game.
D．The garden is run by a university.
小題2: We can learn from the passage that ______.
A．there are four gardens in Roger Williams Park Botanical Center.
B．No one likes Yu Dan’s explanation of Confucius’s Analects.
C．Yu Dan won’t show up on CCTV any more for explanations of Confucius’s Analects.
D．Some people make money by stealing online gamers’ game credits and selling them.
小題3: Where is Roger Williams Park?
A．It’s in England.B．It’s in Providence.
C．It’s in a botanical center.D．It’s in a famous zoo.
小題4: You are very likely to read the passage in ______.
