the hottest magician in China.
As a seasoned young magician from Taiwan, Liu is popular worldwide for his magic
shows. Countries he has performed in include the United States, Japan, South Korea and the
UK.
Witnessing something impossible happen right before your eyes is the root of people’s
love for magic.
Liu is known for his interaction (acting together) with his audiences. He has a unique
understanding of showmanship (演出技巧).
“It’s actually thinking, rather than one’s operation skills, that is more important to
achieving a successful magic show. We think carefully about how to design the shows

attracted to a magic toy in a shop when he was seven years old. At the age of 12, he won
Taiwan’s Youth Magic Contest, which was judged by the great American magician, David
Copperfield.
Yet, Liu never planned on becoming a professional magician. He studied Japanese
literature at university and only hoped to be an amateur(业余的) magician in his spare time.
However, his failure to find a proper job after graduation pushed him towards magic as a
career.
To improve his performing skills, he has performed on streets, roads and fields, for
passers-by, policemen and farmers.
“Street shows are the biggest challenge for us magicians. We have to deal with
unexpected situations and tough crowds,” Liu said.

第二节:书面表达
One possible student version:
January 15
Dear Ralph,
I'm a senior middle school student and busy with my studies.I have one problem that troubles me all the
time It is the relationship between Father and me.My father is a university professor,who works hard and is
very strict with me,but finds little time to talk to me.I love him though I'm a bit afraid of him because he
loses temper easily.
Maybe it's just because we have few chances to exchange our feelings and thoughts.I do hope we cad get
closer and have a talk together so as to have a better understanding between each other.I really don't know
what to do.I wonder if you can give me some advice.
Sincerely,yours
Li Hua
