　　體裁：記306　時間：6′

　　You may be familiar with some of ancient Chinese musical instruments called Erhu or Guzheng, but you may be not familiar with some other ancient Chinese music instruments, such as the Hujia.These instruments are gradually dying out because of a lack of attention and preservation for them.But now, a young man in Northeast China's Shenyang City is hoping to change that.

　　Liu Da was born in Shenyang City, Liaoning Province, China and graduated from Tchaikovsky Music University in Ukraine two years ago, where he majored in piano.But rather than a pianist, Liu is now more like a carpenter for most of the day.And it's all for one thing：to recreate the musical instruments of ancient China.

　　“In Ukraine, during major festivals, the artists from around the world would dress up in their own traditional clothes and use their own musical instruments to play.I had an opportunity to see a lot of music instruments in these festivals.So I was inspired to present our culture, our music as well, from where I'm from，” Liu said.

　　Liu Da started to recreate ancient Chinese music instruments after he graduated from university.It usually takes him between six to eight months to make one ancient instrument.Liu Da has even learned the Manchu and Mongolian language, so he could consult historic files to make accurate designs.

　　During the last two years, he has recreated 23 different kinds of musical instruments from ancient China, some dating back over thousands of years.“This musical instrument is called a Hujia, a reed ripe(牧笛)．It dates back to 3，000 B．C. It's very old and it has a very interesting history，” Liu Da said.

　　Liu Da's next plan is to form a band with these 23 instruments to get an authentic flavor for ancient music.

　　21．Why are some ancient Chinese musical instruments dying out?

　　A．They have lost their value in the modern society.

　　B．People in China are not able to play them.

　　C．People pay no attention to preservation for them.

　　D．People in China don't know how to recreate them.

　　答案　C　[細節理解題。根據短文第一段中的These instruments are gradually dying out because of a lack of attention and preservation for them.可知，由于人們很少關注和保存這些古老的樂器，所以它們瀕臨滅絕。]

　　22．What inspired Liu Da to recreate ancient Chinese musical instruments?

　　A．No artists were invited to play in major festivals in Ukraine.

　　B．Musicians played their own musical instruments in festivals.

　　C．Artists from other countries knew little about Chinese culture and music.

　　D．Chinese modern musical instruments were not popular with artists.

　　答案　B　[細節理解題。根據第三段中的the artists from around the world would dress up in their own traditional clothes and use their own musical instruments to play.可知，因為見到世界各地的藝術家在節慶時演奏自己的樂器，這激起Liu Da重新制作中國古代樂器的欲望。]

　　23．It can be known from the passage that ________．

　　A．Liu Da began making musical instruments when he was in the university

　　B．Ancient Chinese musical instruments are easy to recreate for Liu Da

　　C．Liu Da has recreated 23 different kinds of musical instruments from the world

　　D．Liu Da has made great efforts to recreate ancient Chinese musical instruments

　　答案　D　[推理判斷題。根據短文內容可知，Liu Da每天都像一個木匠，學習滿族語和蒙古語查閱資料來制作這些古代樂器。由此可知，他付出了巨大努力來重新制作這些古

　　24．What does Liu Da plan to do in the near future?

　　A．To form a band with instruments he recreated.
