Hot words on the Internet don’t stay hot for long. “Geili” and “fuyun”, last year’s biggest linguistic innovations, are practically prehistoric in Internet terms. What’s buzzing now is “hold steady”
The term comes from a segment (片段) on the Taiwanese TV show University which features Miss Lin(Xie Yilin) giving a lecture on how to behave like a fashion queen at parties or on the bus. The extremely funny lecture is mainly an over-the-top mockery(嘲笑) of the fashion world, but Miss Lin makes a point: We need to hold steady in pressure-filled or embarrassing situations.
Holding steady, Internet slang for “staying poised”, is one of the qualities the public has been looking for lately as pressures on marriage, work and money can easily drive people crazy. The quality was demonstrated by a girl named Su Miaoling this year. The contestant in the TV singing competition Super Girl carried herself with an air of confidence on stage and kept her cool when others got anxious. “I like your poise(淡定). Very few contestants on this stage can keep calm like you do,” said one of the show’s judges, Hu Haiquan, to Su. Internet users dubbed Su “Sister Poise”.
Poise is also appreciated in Western culture as an essential quality of a well-mannered person. Each year, the National League of Junior Cotillions of the US releases a list of the Ten Best Mannered People. Kate Middleton made it onto the list in 2011 “for the poise and dignity with which she conducts herself in the public spotlight”. The Duchess of Cambridge was also acclaimed earlier this year for her remarkable poise at the royal wedding.
Good news for many, poise is not genetic----it can be acquired with a bit of effort. A personal growth guidance gives tips on how to stay poised. “Take a few deep breaths when you are facing a situation that tests your patience; practice yoga regularly to calm your nerves; use self-affirmation by saying ‘I choose to be calm in any situation’; write down your affirmation daily to imprint the goal,” reads the site.
【小题1】According to the passage, what does “hold steady” mean?
| A．well balanced | B．hold still |
| C．remain stable | D．keep calm |
| A．Poise isn’t born with people, so it can be acquired. |
| B．Under different pressures, people hope to keep calm. |
| C．“Hold steady” comes from a lecture given by a fashion queen. |
| D．In western culture, holding steady is a quality of well-mannered people. |
| A．learn to use self-encouragement. |
| B．Write the goals to be achieved |
| C．Practice yoga regularly to calm your nerves. |
| D．Take deep breaths when facing difficult situations. |
| A．introduce the Internet hot term “hold steady” |
| B．tell funny stories about how to hold steady |
| C．demonstrate how to keep calm under pressure |
| D．give advice on how to keep cool in daily life |
Taiwan-born American director Ang Lee's win of his second directing Oscar has sparked complex feelings among Chinese audiences, who expressed their pride due to the director's Chinese roots, but couldn't help but reflect on why the Chinese mainland has failed to deliver more outstanding films to the world .
Lee, 58, on Sunday accepted the Academy Award for best director for Life of Pi, a 3D adventure-drama film. Lee had won the top directing award in 2006 for Brokeback Mountain and the best foreign language film Oscar in 2001 for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Lee came to Hollywood's attention after directing three Chinese-language films in the early 1990s, with an emphasis on the interactions between modernity and Chinese traditions. Some Web users called Lee "a source of pride for Chinese people," and admired him for bearing the torch of Chinese culture.
However, a large number of audience members and critics from the mainland expressed their frustrations over home-made movies: Mainland filmmakers have made numerous ambitious tries for the prestigious award but never won.
Hao Jie, a young director whose 2010 film Single Man won the Special Jury Prize in the Tokyo Filmex Festival but was never screened in the mainland for it showed complex sex lives in a village.
"Due to the censorship(审查), we are prevented from the beginning of our production, which forbids our works from mirroring realities," Hao said.
While acknowledging the system's role in undermining(削弱) excellent works, Su Mu, a well-known film critic, argued that the atmosphere in the mainland's film circle is also to blame. "Lee produces his works with his heart, but most mainland directors now only have money in mind."
Though having obtained approval for his second film from the film authority, Hao said cinemas have kept delaying the screening of his work. "This is another factor that prevents us from progressing. Cinemas won't risk showing our film, which features no stars and is considered non-mainstream," complained Hao.
1.What does the underlined phrase “the prestigious award” refer to?
A. the Best Director of Oscar

B. Chinese audiences are proud of their Chinese identity in the films.
C. Ang Lee has won the world’s favor only by means of his three Oscars.
D. Ang Lee is famous for his combining modernity and Chinese traditions.
3.Which of the following is NOT the factor that prevents Chinese mainland films’ progressing?
A. Strict censorship.
B. A lack of wonderful directors.
C. The bad atmosphere in the film circle.
D. Cinemas’ not risking showing low-cost films.
4.The best title for the passage is probably_____.
A. Ang Lee-Pride of Chinese Movie-makers
B. The Future of Chinese Mainland Film-making
C. Bitter-sweet Feeling over Ang Lee’s Oscar Win
D. What Can Chinese Films Do for the Oscar Awards
