Chinese people think a lot about food. 1 a matter of fact, I think that they’re sometimes obsessed(痴迷)with it. My first practice of this aspect of Chinese culture came at a banquet(宴会)during a trip to Beijing in 1998. I had eaten Chinese food often, but I could not have 2 how fabulous (丰盛的) a real Chinese banquet could be. The first six or seven dishes seemed to 3_ the table, with plates 4 _balanced  one on top of another. I thought this vast   5_ of food was the total number of dishes to be served, and I started eating   6 . Everyone else just 7_a bit of each dish and then put their chopsticks down, continuing to  8_. “They can’t have very big appetites,” I thought.

To my  9_, more dishes arrived , plus soups, side dishes, and desserts. There was enough to feed a whole army. No 10 my fellow guests had had only a few bites of each dish; they knew 11_was still to come. But I was already so 12 that I could only wait as the banquet  13__.

Another aspect of “food culture” is that the Chinese seem to eat almost every part of every animal—much to the horror of many westerners. Stomach, ears, tongue, tail, hoof and lungs are all 14 to end up on the dinner table in front of you. The first time I saw a three-year-old kid 15_ chewing a chicken’s head, I had bad dreams for weeks.

These days I enjoy that sort of food myself. 16_ , there are other kinds of foods that have taken longer for me to 17__ . The infamous (臭名昭著的) choudoufu is a(n) 18 _ Just when I got used to it, I found another 19 _on a trip to Hunan: deep-fried choudoufu, a terrible black thing that looked and  20  like a burnt tennis shoe. Maybe I will get used to it, too—someday.

  It was a very different school from those in China.You're not met by imposing doors and concrete walls, and the buildings were inviting.On the front of the main building was inscribed “Lee Elementary School, 1904.” Wow! I knew it was an old school.Surrounding the main building were five trailers(拖车式活动房屋).One of them was my classroom, 5T.The “T” stood for Mrs.Toalson, my 5th grade teacher.

  Mrs Toalson showed me to my seat.A girl sitting at my table greeted me.Her name was Regina, and she was a blonde girl from Ukraine.Her eyes were like diamonds, and we had met at a party two days before.

  During my first morning, we had math class, PE and science.We didn’t even have a break! I wondered why? Mrs Toalson said to us:“Guys, line up for the bathroom break please!” All the kids stood up and went outside.

  I didn’t know what “bathroom break” meant.Was it break time? Lunch time? I was confused.Nevertheless, we followed Mrs.Toalson to the main building.We sat in the hallway across from the bathroom.In Chinese, “bathroom” means the WC, and a “break” means having a rest! Gosh, I thought that was weird and why did we have to go to the bathroom together?

  “Mary and Regina, you may go.” When we heard Mrs.Toalson, we went into the bathroom.The bathroom was clean, and it smelled like perfume.I asked Regina what if someone wanted to go to the bathroom during class time.She told me that there was a special pass called a “bathroom pass.” All you had to do was raise your hand with the pass to let Mrs.Toalson know you need to go to the bathroom.Then you would be permitted to go.

  At 3:30pm, school ended for the day.Students put their textbooks in their cabinets and lined up in front of the change room, where they collected their backpacks and coats.As they walked out of the door, each student said “Good bye” and gave Mrs.Toalson a high five.

  “Did you have a good day today?” Mrs.Toalson asked me as she hugged me goodbye.

  “Sure!” I nodded.

Gu Changwei was the first Chinese cinematographer to be nominated (提名) for an Oscar, and he is regarded by Zhang Yimou as the best cinematographer in China. Gu was behind the camera for many of Zhang Yimou’s famous films including the one that rocketed Zhang to fame: "Red Sorghum (高粱)". And now this master of the visual has taken on his first directing role with the film "Peacock". So Gu Changwei has come out from behind the camera into the spotlight (聚光灯).

Gu Changwei is very serious about his directing "Peacock". To get the authentic atmosphere, Gu took his film crew to the city of Anyang in central China’s Henan province where the story took place, to shoot the film. He chose all new actors because he didn’t want "stars" appeal to weaken the power of the story, and he also had his actors trained in the local dialect. For this film Gu has been able to get out from behind the camera to manage every aspect of the film, and to realize his own ideals in movie-making.

"Peacock" is about the life of an average family in a small town in Henan province in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Gu chose this story for his first movie because he grew up during this same pe??riod and it struck a chord with him.

“Peacock” wrapped up production in June, 2004. It’s aimed at the foreign film market and will be entered in February’s Berlin Film Festival, and released in China at the same time. But at the end of last October, Gu took “Peacock” to his Alma Mater, the Beijing Film Academy, one of the most fa??mous film colleges in China, to hold a preview. The film was warmly received by both teachers and students.

A. has been nominated for an Oscar     B. uses a camera to shoot films

C. directs first-class films                    D. arranges for cinema shows

Gu didn’t employ “stars” in his film because ________.

A. tars usually stick to their own acting styles

B. the stars may not be able to speak the local dialect

C. the stars may share the audience’s attention with the story

D. it was not easy for him, a fresh hand, to invite stars to join him

A. he was born in the early 1970s              

       B. he grew up in Henan province

C. he was popular in Henan province
