26、   Beijing-born Chloe Zhao made a historic win, becoming the first Asian woman director to take home the Golden Globe Award for Best Director on Sunday night in Los Angeles, causing a stir among domestic netizens.

Nomadland, Zhao's third film, grabbed two top awards, including Best Picture, at the 2021 Annual Golden Globe Awards, making her the second filmmaker of Chinese descent after Ang Lee to get the top directorial prize of the 78 year old event, widely considered as an indicator of the Oscars.

Adapted from American journalist Jessica Bruder's 2017 non-fiction book Nomadland: Surviving America in the Twenty-First Century, the film stars the actress Frances McDormand as a 62-year old woman who travels in the vast lands of America in order to explore life as a modern-day nomad (流浪者).

With a short yet glittering resume (简历), Zhao, who was born in 1982 and sent to study overseas in 1998, has gained attention from the first film directed by her Songs My Brothers Taught Me in 2015 before accumulating more popularity for the award-winning The Rider in 2017. The latter helped her to seize the attention of McDormand, who then chose the rights of the Nomadland book.

After being released in international film events since autumn last year. Nomadland has been a favorite of many major festivals, including its victorious win of the Golden Lion Award as the best film at the 2020 Venice International Film Festival.

So far, the film has received more than 90 awards, making it a sought-after competitor in the upcoming Oscars.

Song Dandan, a famous actress and the stepmother of Zhao, sent her greetings on SinaWeibo saying every award won by Zhao has surpassed (超过) the family’s expectations, bringing them huge joy. She added that she hopes Zhao’s success will encourage more Chinese youth to pursue their dreams.

27、   What would it be like to live on Mars? Volunteers are spending eight months in an area that looks much like the surface of Mars. They are isolated(孤立)high on top of Mauna Loa, a volcanic mountain on the Big Island of Hawaii, living on a simulated(模仿的) or make-believe, Mars Base.

The project called HI-SEAS is in the charge of Kim Binsted. She says this wild environment is as close to Mars as you can find on Earth. Because it is so high, the land is not warm or rich with plants, like the rest of Hawaii.

“You will see there is really no visible plant life or animal life. And you have got this wonderful volcanic material.”

Mauna Loa, 2,500 meters above sea level, is geologically very similar to Olympus Mons on Mars and almost as tall as the Martian mountain. When measured from its base, deep in the ocean, Mauna Loa is the second largest mountain in our solar system, after the one on Mars.

The six member HI-SEAS crew is mostly self-sufficient. Food and supplies are brought to them. But the individuals bringing those supplies cannot communicate with volunteers inside the habitat, or base.

Kim Binsted says this experiment looks at how the astronauts get along with each other. “We study how well they work together, how we can keep them happy and supported, and not wanting to kill each other over these long durations (期间).”

Crew members communicate with the outside world through e-mail and blogs. They also produce video on the YouTube website, like this one from mission commander Martha Lenio. “I am really enjoying this opportunity to live here and pretend that I’m on Mars and get to learn all sorts of new skills.” One of them said. “Whoever gets there first, the trip will not be easy”, says Kim Binsted, “It is going to be challenging.”

【1】What do we know about Olympus Mons?

A.It is 2,500 meters above sea level.

B.It is geologically similar to Mauna, Loa.

C.It is the second largest mountain on the earth.

D.It is a mountain on the Big Island of Hawaii.

【2】What is the purpose of the experiment?

A.To set up a space station.

B.To explore new settlement for human.

C.To prove human can live in whatever conditions.

D.To study how the astronauts treat each other.

【3】Which can be the best title for the text?

A.Volunteers First Explore Mars

B.Volunteers Experience Life in Hawaii

C.Volunteers Get Taste of Mars in Hawaii

D.Volunteers Study the Environment on Mars

28、If you have to attend a party or other social events where a lot of people will be present, do you feel confident that you will make a good impression on others? Or do you feel shy? In any case, you should increase your confidence at social events.

Whenever you are meeting new people at any social event, you should wear proper clothes. Before you attend the event, try to find out how other  people will be dressing. If everyone else is wearing business clothes, you should, too. If the event is informal, you should wear informal clothes so that you fit in.

If you are going to meet people from a certain business or profession, try looking through a few professional magazines or checking on the Internet ahead of time to get some conversation ideas which are related to their fields of interest. This can prevent you getting tongue-tied at the event.

When you are at the event, don’t worry about whether or not other people you are talking with like you. Instead, try your best to find reasons to like them.

When you are making conversation with people, be sure to keep good eye contact, and make your facial expression soft. Nod to show you’re listening. Let your face and body relax so that you can make natural gestures.

After the event is over, take a bit of time to think of your social performance and the conversation you had with people. Tell yourself exactly what you did very well at the event. For example, perhaps you made a big effort to really listen to the people you were talking with,or you may have asked several people some good questions that really got them talking. By doing so, your conversation confidence will gradually improve.

29、An 11-and-a-half-minute film, titled How Erjiu Cured My Mental Friction after Being Back in the Village for Three Days, has become one of the most popular videos in China this week. The video, telling the story of the disabled man identified as Erjiu (second-eldest uncle), inspired millions for its description of how to deal with miseries (痛苦) in life.

His nephew, surnamed Tang, made the film at Erjiu’s home that was “built before the US even existed” in an undisclosed poor part of rural China.

Tang uses sensitive and often humorous narration to paint a colourful picture of Erjiu’s life, telling the story of a bright kid whose life took a dramatic turn when a treatment he received for a high fever left him with a lame (瘸的) leg. The film has remained the most watched video on Bilibili, China’s top video app, since Tang, a Beijing-based vlogger and teacher, posted it on the platform on Monday. Commenters online said the short film was “healing” and “inspiring” and called the old man an “ordinary but great” person.

After the medical accident left Erjiu disabled, the man learned carpentry (木匠手艺) and used the skill to support himself and his family. He is always ready to help villagers repair any broken items such as furniture, electric appliances, or toys for children. Whenever there is a problem, “he will always find a way to solve it”.

The video is also filled with Tang’s own reflections on life inspired by his uncle’s experience. “Erjiu was dealt a bad hand, but he played his cards beautifully,” Tang said at the end of the film.

Tang refused to disclose his uncle’s name or where he lives to prevent people from disturbing him. “I will not allow anyone to know where exactly he lives, or anyone to shoot photos or videos of him because that will affect his life,” he said in a video interview with Xinhua news agency on Tuesday.

Commenting on the unexpected popularity of his video, Tang said: “That is because my uncle lived his life well, not because I wrote a respectable story.”

【1】What makes the video a hit?
