《2025年能力素养与学力提升九年级英语上册译林版》

五、阅读理解
The first Chinese actor captured(征服) the hearts of many Chinese in the USA. He read a letter by Zhuge Liang(181—234) to the emperor of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms Period(220—280) in the new season of the TV series Growling Tiger, Roaring Dragon(《虎啸龙吟》).
The letter has been read by so many students. We would never have thought that the text written in old Chinese could be so beautifully read in another language. As a result, foreigners begin to show an interest in the book Romance of the Three Kingdoms, translated by C. H. Brewitt-Taylor and Robert E. Hegel.
Earlier in November 1979, pupils in Britain were able to watch a new TV programme called Monkey. Most of them heard the story for the first time. However, the story of the Monkey King isn’t new to Chinese children in the traditional Chinese book Journey to the West.
As soon as the TV programme came out more than 30 years ago, Western children became interested in reading this story because the clever Monkey King keeps fighting to help the weak and never gives up.
Chinese scholars(学者) should do a better job of introducing Chinese literature to the rest of the world. At the same time, we could encourage Western schools to try something different.
Reading international literature is an effective way of understanding other peoples in the world. And the more we understand each other, the more beautiful the world will be.
