4.Any introduction to Peking Opera would not be complete without telling of Mei Lanfang.Traditionally only men performed in Peking Opera,including the female roles.And Mei Lanfang was the very best master of the miss.During his stage life,he combined the traditions of the past with his own creations,shaping a style of his own and giving birth to"The Mei Lanfang School".He was also the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to an overseas audience,making it popular to the world.For half a century,Mei Lanfang was a household name in China.

In over 50years on the stage,Mei Lanfang played no less than 100different characters in the traditional Peking Opera performance.He completely changed both stage make-up and costumes,and enriched characters'gestures,expressions and poses.He also wrote many new plays,designing the dances himself.The many dances he created form part of the great legacy that he left to Peking Opera.
In 1930,Mei Lanfang started on a successful US tour.There his brilliant performances fascinated the audience,making them realize that Peking Opera was a theatrical form of great literary and artistic value.

19.We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money,but most mistakes are about people."Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?""When I got that great job,did Jim really feel good about it,as a friend?Or did he envy my luck?"When we look back,doubts like these can make us feel ba d.But when we look back,it's too late.
Why did we go wrong about our friends or our enemies?Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning.And if we don't really listen,we miss the feeling behind the words.Suppose someone tells you,"You're a lucky dog."Is he really on your side?If he says,"You're a lucky guy!"that's being friendly.But"lucky dog"?There's a bit of envy in those words.What he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck.
"Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for"is another noise that says one thing and means another.It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem.But this phrase contains the thought that your problem isn't important.
   How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words?One way is to take a good look at the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks?Does what he says shown by the tone of voice?The look in his eyes?Stop and think.The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.
24.By saying"You're a lucky dog,"the s peakerC.
A.is just being friendly
B.expresses the same meaning as"You're a lucky guy"

16.When she moved the covering cloth to look upon his tiny face,she was shocked.The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the tall hospital window.The baby had been born without ears.
Time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect.When he rushed home from school one day and threw himself into his mother's arms,she sighed,knowing that his life was to be full of heart-breaks for his imperfect appearance.
He grew up,handsome for his misfortune and popular with his fellow students.He might have been class monitor,but for that.He developed a gift,a talent for literature and music.
Two years went by.One day,his father said to the son,"You're going to the hospital,son.Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need.But it's a secret."The operation was a brilliant success,and a new person turned up.His talents blossomed into genius,and his school and college became a series of success.Later he married and entered the diplomatic service.
One day,he urged his father,"Who gave so much for me?I must know!I could never do enough for him."
"I do not believe you could,"said the father,"but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet."
The years kept their secret,but the day did come---one of the darkest days that a son must endure.He stood with his father over his mother's casket (棺材).Slowly,tenderly,the father reached out a hand and raised the thick,reddish-brown hair to show that the mother had no outer ears.
"Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut,"he whispered gently,"and nobody ever thought Mother less beautiful,did they?"
Real beauty lies not in the physical appearance,but in the heart.Real treasure lies not in what can be seen,but in what cannot be seen.Real love lies not in what is done and known,but in what is done and not known.

21.The underlined word"that"(in Para.3)stands forB.
A.his handsome appearance     B.his imperfect appearance
C.his popularity              D.his talent for literature and music
22.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A
A.The boy couldn't hear clearly without ears at first.
B.The son didn't know the truth until his mother died.
C.With donated ears,the son's life developed smoothly.
D.The son attempted to repay the donator's kindness.
23.Why did the boy's mother never have her hair cut?D
A.Because she liked her thick and brown hair.
B.Because her hair added to her beauty.
C.Because her long hair was her pride.
D.Because her hair helped to keep a secret.
24.Which is the best title for the passage?C
A.An Unfortunate Boy                B.Mother's Hair
C.Mother's Secret Love             D.A Successful Ear Operation.
