Samantha Cristoforetti . 2022/10/12 …仰观宇宙之大，俯察品类之盛，所以游目骋怀，足以极视听之娱，信可乐也。Looking up, I see the immensity of the cosmos; bowing my head, I look at the multitude of the world.
The gaze flies, the heart expands, the joy of the senses can reach its peak, & indeed, this is true happiness.

ESA及另外4人

Besides ‘‘wow” and “great”, what else would you say when flying over the Earth in space? Samantha Cristoforetti, an Italian female astronaut, posted several lines of a famous ancient Chinese composition on Twitter during her mission at the International Space Station to share her joy. She first wrote in Chinese, and then attached an accurate translation of the lines in both Italian and English to help more people understand. The text she quoted is from the Preface to Poems Composed at the Orchid Pavilion, a Chinese calligraphy masterpiece by Wang Xizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. She also attached three photos taken in space of China’s Bohai Bay and the day-night view of Beijing.
The beauty of space and Chinese literature resonated on Cristoforetti’s Twitter account. Her post went viral on Twitter with thousands of retweets, likes and replies in a few hours. “Her quotation of the lines shows that she observed the universe with the vision of Chinese civilization while observing China from space,” one user comments. “A European astronaut in space recites Chinese ancient poetry, how romantic,” says another.
Cristoforetti has been highly praised for her Chinese language skills. The Italian speaks half a dozen languages and has previously taken part in joint training between the European Space Agency (ESA) and the China Manned Space Agency. Apart from Cristoforetti, Matthias Maurer, a German astronaut from ESA who went to China together with Cristoforetti for the joint training, can also speak fluent Chinese. Since China and Europe have had friendly cooperation in the field of manned space flight, many foreign astronauts have shown great interest in learning Chinese.
ESA Director General Josef Aschbacher is positive about the unifying spirit of space exploration. He said, “Space is international. There is no way to put a boundary in space—because the space station and the satellites fly around the earth, cross boundaries, cross cultures, cross religions and different divides in terms of philosophy and history.”
While there may be many problems between nations here on Earth, in space, cooperation is strong.
1．What made Cristoforetti post the message on the Internet?
A．The desire to show off her Chinese.
B．The amazement at the view of the space.
C．The wish to work with Chinese astronauts.
D．The duty of popularizing space knowledge.
2．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A．Cristoforetti spread Chinese civilization on her Twitter account.
B．Cristoforetti’s success in learning Chinese encouraged others.
C．Cristoforetti’s post became a hit on the Internet.
D．Cristoforetti is a genius at learning languages.
3．What can we learn from the passage?
A．Space exploration settles differences between nations.
B．The longing for solving problems on Earth is universal.
C．Mastering more than one language is a trend among astronauts.
D．Cooperation in the space field bridges the gap between cultures.

（陕西省渭南市白水县2021-2022学年高二上学期期末考试英语试题）The TV series, The Longest Day in Chang’an, which was shown on Chinese online platforms, became a hit soon. Since then, it has been shown on partnering streaming platforms and TV networks abroad. Some websites overseas also offered the program to their users paying for it — the first time a Chinese series was broadcast as paid content abroad.
“I was amazed by the overseas audience’s love of this show,” Cao Dun, director of The Longest Day in Chang’an told Beijing Review. “I was worried that they wouldn’t understand the complex political structure of the Tang Dynasty. But in fact, the show is prompting foreign audiences to research the history of the Tang Dynasty to better understand the plot.”
The unique culture in ancient China is no a barrier but a bridge to connect with foreign audiences. In the TV series, every figure is given enough space to flesh out his or her character.
Telling stories of the ordinary Chinese people that resonate (引起共鸣) with the audience might be the way to communicate with the world. “The success of the TV series shows that beauty is a universal language crossing borders,” he told Beijing Review.
His ambition is to distinguish Chinese dramas from the TV shows in the rest of the world. “The TV series is a step in my plan to tell Chinese stories to the world,” Cao said. “After describing the impressive beauty of the Tang dynasty, I am looking for several plays that tell stories of today’s China. I don’t want to copy any country’s production. Chinese dramas have to build on our rich culture and Chinese people’s everyday life.” Cao added.
4．What do we know about the TV series?
A．It can be appreciated for free.
B．It was very popular once it was shown.
C．It was put on overseas when first released.
D．It is about the development of the Tang dynasty.
5．What does the underlined word “prompting” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．Requiring. B．Reminding. C．Encouraging. D．Informing.
6．What contributed to the TV series’ success?
A．Recognition of beauty. B．Stories of Tang Dynasty.
C．Diversity of Chinese culture. D．Personalities of every figure.
7．What is the best title of the passage?
A．Learn the Ancient Political Structure B．Make a Successful TV Series is Easy
C．Show Different Nationalities in China D．Tell Chinese Stories to the World
