A. It's better to write from the left - hand side.
B. But now, we write from left to right in horizontal rows (横行).
C. Before paper was invented, people wrote on bamboo slips (竹简).
D. After being connected, the slips were rolled up.
E. However, this idea wasn't widely accepted at the time.
F. Over time, people got used to writing from left to right in rows.
In ancient times, people usually wrote from right to left in vertical columns (竖列). 1. B Why did this change?
This has something to do with the writing tools and habits that people had back then. 2. C The thin slips were connected by small pieces of string (线). People wrote from top to bottom on one slip and then another. The slips were then connected together into one long passage.
3. D While opening a roll, people usually held it with their right hand and opened it with their left hand. This made right - to - left writing more natural.
Near the end of the Qing Dynasty (1636 ~ 1912), some scholars began to spread Western ideas and suggested that Chinese people follow the Western writing habit. In 1917, linguist (语言学家) Qian Xuantong wrote a letter to the New Culture Movement leader Chen Duxiu, suggesting writing Chinese characters from left to right. He said that if people used their right hands to write, it would be easier to begin from the left. 4. E
In the early 1950s, famous overseas Chinese businessman Chen Jiageng and Chinese writer Guo Moruo raised this suggestion again. Gradually, newspapers, magazines, and books began printing text in horizontal rows. 5. F

答案： 短文填空
1.B 由上文“In ancient times, people usually wrote from right to left in vertical columns.”及下文“Why did this change?”可知，此处应是讲人们从右向左竖列书写的传统习惯转变为另一种书写习惯的。B项“但现在，我们以横行(从左到右)的方式书写”符合语境。故选B。
2.C 由上文“This has something to do with the writing tools and habits that people had back then.”及下文“The thin slips were connected by small pieces of string.”可知，此处应是讲述一种古时候人们书写的工具。C项“在纸张发明前，人们在竹简上书写”符合语境。故选C。
3.D 由上文“The slips were then connected together into one long passage.”可知，此处应是讲竹简用线连起来之后的步骤。D项“串联后的竹简被卷起”符合语境。故选D。
4.E 上文提到语言学家钱玄同提出从左往右书写的建议，结合下文“In the early 1950s, famous overseas Chinese businessman Chen Jiageng and Chinese writer Guo Moruo raised this suggestion again. Gradually, newspapers, magazines, and books began printing text in horizontal rows.”可推知，此处应是讲钱玄同提议并不成功。E项“然而，当时这一观点并未得到广泛认同”符合语境。故选E。
5.F 由上文“Gradually, newspapers, magazines, and books began printing text in horizontal rows.”可知，渐渐地，报纸、杂志和书籍开始以横向的排版方式刊登文字，说明人们已经接受了从左向右的书写习惯。F项“随着时间的推移，人们逐渐习惯了从左向右、横向书写”符合语境。故选F。
