24、The Hugo (雨果) Awards, the world’s top science fiction awards, were announced on the night of Oct 21, 2023. Chinese writer Hai Ya’s book The Space-Time Painter won the Hugo Award for Best Novelette. He became the third Chinese writer to win a Hugo award after Liu Cixin in 2015 and Hao Jingfang in 2016.

When creating The Space-Time Painter, Hai Ya drew his idea from a famous painting by Wang Ximeng from the Song Dynasty (960-1279). Based on Wang, Hai Ya created a painter named Zhao Ximeng. After many hard times, Zhao’s mind leaves his body and enters a space where a modern policeman is trying to solve a case about an ancient painting.

Hai Ya’s story with science fiction began in his childhood. “When I was a child, the bookstore in my hometown helped create a beautiful garden in my mind that belonged to me only. In it, science fiction offered the most beautiful ‘flowers’. Science fiction opened up a new world to him as a kid,” said Hai Ya.

Hai Ya’s works are a mix of history and science fiction. These two styles seem opposite. One looks back at the past, and the other faces the future. However, in Hai Ya’s works, they find a perfect balance.

“If we can only imagine the future and things in space like rockets, it will only limit our imagination. I don’t think history is something completely in the past. It is flowing, and we can look forward to the future by looking back at history. History is also part of our future,” Hai Ya said.

Science fiction lovers in China feel inspired (激发) by Hai Ya. More Chinese writers today are trying to mix traditional culture with modern stories. Hai Ya believes that it is not a choice but a natural process (过程). “Our history and culture have universal values (普世价值) that can touch everyone,” he said.

【1】What do we know about The Space-Time Painter?

A．It tells Wang Ximeng’s life story.

B．It is inspired by an ancient painting.

C．Its story is based on the faraway future.

D．It is a novel about the Song Dynasty.

【2】How did science fiction influence Hai Ya as a child?

A．It offered him traditional ways to write novels.

B．It taught him a lot about planting flowers.

C．It introduced him to a different world.

D．It helped him mix the East with the West.

【3】What does Hai Ya believe about the relationship between history and the future?

A．History is opposite to the future.

B．History can help us look forward to our future.

C．History offers us everything to shape our future.

D．History and the future are separate from each other.

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A．Chinese traditional culture is inspired by Hai Ya.

B．Mixing traditional and modern culture is a choice.

C．Chinese writers are trying to limit their science fiction works.

D．A new force of science fiction has risen to spread Chinese culture.

25、Chinese TV viewers are getting a closer look at the changing roles of dads in the new reality show Where Are We Going, Dad? that is showing on Hunan Television. The show follows the adventure of five superstar dads who partner up with their young children(aged 4 to 6) and try to complete a set of tasks.

26、People from all over the world like chocolate. Made from cocoa beans, chocolate was a drink before becoming a food. It was first drunk by Central Americans thousands of years ago. 【1】 At the time, only rich people could drink chocolate because it was expensive. About 150 years ago, people started to eat chocolate.

Nowadays, everybody can enjoy chocolate easily. Studies suggest that eating a little chocolate once a week can help keep us from heart disease. Dark chocolate is better than milk chocolate because it has more cocoa. 【2】

We often hear fun news about chocolate. 【3】

Every year in the US, a chocolate company holds a competition and the prize is a chocolate hotel room! Almost everything in the room is made of chocolate and even the walls are covered with chocolate. 【4】
