题目内容
Peking Opera used to sound strange to Dou Yi. The14-year-old Beijinger said whenever she came across Peking Opera on TV, she changed the Channel (频道). Like most of today's teenagers, Dou loves pop music.
But since Dou entered the Xuanwu branch school of Beijing No. 15 Middle School, she has been studying Peking Opera in music class every week.
Dou and her classmates listen to Peking Opera and learn the basics(基础知识) from professional actors. They also sing along with the operas.
"We laugh sometimes because the tunes(声调)are really hard to learn, "said Dou. But she said that now she would watch Peking Opera on TV.
"After all, I am no longer a layman, 'she said.
Since 2008, schools around the country have been teaching students Peking Opera. It's part of a plan to introduce young people to the country's artistic traditions. Clearly, Dou's school has been taking the job seriously.
Yang Ning, 14, is Dou's classmate. She has been studying Peking Opera since she was 8. She is a member of the school's Peking Opera club.
Yang said she had learned a lot from Peking Opera.
"I learn a lot of history from the operas," she said." I've also found out about many ancient poems, since there are so many of them in the operas."
Yang doesn't think everyone can learn to sing Peking Opera well, but she does say that it's helpful for all people to learn about it.
"The more you learn about it, the more you understand it. If people do study it, this old art form won't disappear. It would be a great pity if it did!” she said.
