    Food across borders (边境)

    The history of foods is never simple. Think of ice-cream, many people see it as a Western dessert. However, this sweet treat actually came from China! In the Zhou Dynasty, Chinese people began to store winter ice to enjoy in summer. In the Song Dynasty, people started to make binglao — it just means "ice cream" in English. It was a lot like modern ice cream. Folk tales have it that Emperor Huizong suffered from stomach pains after eating too much ice. In the Yuan Dynasty, Marco Polo tasted binglao and carried the idea all the way back to Europe. People there added heavy cream and new tastes. The rest is history!

    Sometimes, totally different cultures have similar dishes. Iranians love a kind of flat bread, sangak. People in Shaanxi, China, love stone pancakes. These two look almost the same! People often compare roujiamo to hamburgers, a symbol of American food! Many people call it the "Chinese hamburger". But in fact, the areas of Venezuela look more like the twin brother of roujiamo!

    Food is a bridge between cultures. When foods cross borders, sweet things can happen.

    Reading a good history book is like opening a door to the past. It can not only let us learn from great people in history, but also help us understand the wisdom of life. Among all the history books, you can't a history book called Historical Records, or Shiji (《史记》).

    Sima Qian, an official (官员) during the Western Han Dynasty(202 BC—AD 9) wrote it. He completed this great work under very difficult conditions, which showed his strong will. The work records the events beginning the well-known Yellow Emperor and ending with the first years of the Han Wudi period, covering around 3,000 years.

    In this book, I like how the writer describes different people. For example, there's Da Yu, the founder of the Xia Dynasty. He tried so hard to a big flood that he refused to enter his home while passing by three times. I hope to be a great like Da Yu. There are also two well-known , Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. They a group of people against the Qin Dynasty. Their story shows that every person, whatever their birth, can become someone great he tries his best.

    When I read this book, I could see how Sima Qian made the characters come alive with words. This makes the book of strong feelings of love and hate, and I always find these stories very inspiring. The book is more than a historical record. It is a treasure that makes me think and grow.

  • 20、The ink brush is a traditional tool for writing and painting in ancient China. It's also one of the "Four Treasures of the Chinese Study". The earliest ink brush was found more than 2,500 years ago.

    The Han Dynasty (202 BC—220 AD) is an important period for the development of the ink brush, and it is also the time when Cai Lun improved the paper-making method. People began to widely use ink brushes at that time. Meanwhile, the first book on how to produce ink brushes came out.

    In the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, many ink brush experts got together in Huzhou of Zhejiang Province and the brush-producing industry developed rapidly. Huzhou has been the center of brush making since the Qing Dynasty. Ink brushes produced there, called Hubi, are the best known.

    The ink brush is made up of the stalk and the nib. The stalk is usually made of bamboo, wood or other valuable materials. The nib is made of fine, soft animal hair. For example, the animal hair includes three main kinds: rabbit's hair, wool and weasel's hair (黄鼠狼毛). People often call these nibs tuhao, yanghao, and langhao in Chinese.

    The ink brush is made in three sizes: big, medium or small. Most works of calligraphy (书法) are written with a medium-sized brush. Usually, painters and calligraphers have several kinds of brushes on hand to meet personal purposes and preferences (喜好).

    根据语篇内容,按要求回答问题。

    (1)、When were ink brushes widely used in ancient China?

    (2)、Where has been the center of brush making since the Qing Dynasty?
