一、完形填空
If you were asked to recite (背诵) lines of poetry (诗歌) that have the Chinese word hua — which means "flower" — how many could you recite?
He Liran,13,had to 1 this challenge on a TV show aired by Shandong TV. She competed with over 100 other students. The competitors took turns to recite lines (诗行) of poetry that used the word hua,with He Liran 2 to each one.
One competitor used the line "As if the vernal breeze had come back overnight；adorning thousands of pear trees with blossoms white (忽如一夜春风来,千树万树梨花开)." He Liran replied with " 3 one night of wind and showers；how many are the fallen flowers (夜来风雨声,花落知多少)?" In the end,He Liran won the competition.
Her lifelong love of 4 helped her win. Her father started reading to her when she was 4. She is especially interested in ancient poetry. "The beautiful 5 make me think a lot." Though (虽然) busy with schoolwork,she spares time to study 6 one poem each day. She thinks ancient poetry is 7 important,even in modern times.
" 8 ,I walked along a small path in a forest. The scenery (风景) was 9 what is described in the line '松间沙路竟无泥'. At that moment,the lines from Su Shi's poem 10 came to my mind and I realized that poems can be part of our daily lives," she said.
