人与社会·人物事迹（2024四川自贡中考改编）
Recently, the story of a Chinese girl playing the erhu on the streets of Milan, Italy has been reported. She has been trying street performances in her spare time since April 2023. Every time she performs, she attracts many people, building a bridge of communication between China and Italy through music. The girl is Zheng Xiaohui from Weifang, who is talented in playing the erhu.
In 2021, Zheng went to Milan for study. There, she found the street art culture was very popular. She saw some wonderful street performances that caused many people to dance. “I was so touched, and found that music has great power to bring people together,” she said.
In 2023, Zheng started her street performance during Milan Design Week. And many tourists were attracted by her performance. Some even experienced playing the erhu. Zheng also performed at the 2023 Milan Fashion Week. “I am very happy that China's erhu has shown its special beauty on the international stage,” Zheng said.
With the popularity of her performances, Zheng has more chances to show traditional Chinese culture. Besides street performances, she also performs online and gives concerts to show the beauty of the erhu to the world. She hopes to meet more friends who love Chinese folk music and traditional Chinese culture through her performances.（E9209003）

请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容，从方框内所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使其意思通顺。选项中有一项为多余项。
How different can cultures be? Very! People from different cultures can eat different foods and live in different kinds of houses. They probably speak different languages and have different beliefs and customs. But guess what? 19.____ The similarities between cultures connect people and help them communicate.
We sometimes call these means (方式) of communication universal(全世界的) languages. 20.____ And some of them allow people of wildly different backgrounds to communicate and share emotions and feelings. For example, some people believe music is a universal language. 21.____ Experts have learned that, across cultures, people can notice three common emotions in music: happiness, sadness, and fear.
Music may even be able to bridge the differences not only between people of different cultures but also between people and other creatures(生物). Music has been known to be a good influence on all kinds of animals.
So what other kinds of languages that everyone can understand might there be? 22.____ Along with music, dancing seems to be a common interest shared by people all over the world. Do you think you could see a dance from another culture and make some reasonable guesses about the ideas and emotions behind it? Of course, you could!
Another universal language that you might not have thought of is math! 23.____ The value of pi (圆周率) is around 3.14159, no matter where you are on Earth!
A.There is some scientific support for this idea.
B.There is no doubt that art is a universal language too.
C.If you think about it now, though, it just makes sense.
D.They can also be similar in ways you might not expect.
E.Some people believe dancing is also a universal language.
F.Strictly speaking, they're not languages but ways of sharing thoughts and ideas.
