三、阅读理解
Lu Xun is one of the greatest Chinese writers of the 20th century. Besides his famous stories, he also wrote many influential articles about the living conditions of Chinese people.
Born in 1881 to a wealthy family, Lu Xun had a happy childhood. In 1893, however, his grandfather, a senior government official, was put into prison for taking money. At the same time, his father became seriously ill. From that time on, his family was no longer accepted by their relatives and friends. These early experiences

greatly influenced his writing.
By the time Lu Xun arrived in Nanjing to study at university in 1899, he already believed that Chinese society had to change and become modern. In 1902 he went to study in Japan. There he began writing articles for several Chinese student magazines. He showed a gift for writing and translating and he even wrote several books, although none was popular. He returned to China in 1909 because he was in need of money.
After working for several years as a teacher in Beijing, Lu Xun again returned to writing. In 1918, he wrote his famous short story Diary of a Madman. It was the first Chinese novel published using the everyday language that people spoke, which helped make it a great success. This, together with his novel The True Story of Ah Q(1921), made Lu Xun a leading Chinese writer.
Although successful, Lu Xun still worried greatly about China’s future. In 1927, he moved to Shanghai and gave up writing stories in order to devote himself to what he called “pen warfare”. He only wrote articles which called on the people to fight against the government. For this, the government stopped him from publishing any more books. He was forced to write his articles using false names.
Since his death in 1936, Lu Xun’s importance and influence have grown. Today, many of his writings are included in school textbooks and his works are read by millions of people around the world.
1. Which of the following greatly influenced Lu Xun’s writing according to the passage?
A. The people he met in Japan.
B. The experiences in his early life.
C. Working as a teacher in Beijing.
D. His father’s being put into prison.
2. According to the passage why was Lu Xun’s story Diary of a Madman so popular?
A. It was based on Lu Xun’s diary.

【参考范文】
Film or book, which do you like best?
How to read the book in the original? Different people have different opinions.
Some of us think that it is better to see the film than to read the book in the original. The reason is that it takes less time to understand the whole story. Besides, the film is usually more interesting. Some others have just the opposite opinion. They think that they can get more information from the original. And the language in the book is possibly more lively and beautiful.
For me, I agree with the second view. Actually I have more reasons for it. I think I can stay at home, reading quietly in my own house, and I am able to better understand the author’s ideas. In a word, to read the original work is better than to see the film.
