Spring was also the time to change . In Nova Scotia, we had snow on the ground almost from late December until late March. We spent all of our time outside wearing our winter boots. To run in them was like running with two weighty bags.
In late April or early May, mum would take us to the town to buy a new pair of light for each of us. I still remember the rubber , with the trademark imprinted on it. After a month or two, small hands would tear it off, and leave a circle, darker than the material around it.

The rules about how to talk, eat and sit, which are highly limited, are observed in most Western restaurants and homes. 1. Many Westerners have no idea how to act at the Chinese dinner table. No forks or knives for them to use! The Chinese host makes great, sweeping arm movements that go over large sections of the table, passing over both food and friends alike. 2. However, it leaves many foreigners at a loss for what to do.
In my childhood home, dinner was enjoyed with low voices, and the topics that we could discuss were very limited. 3. If I had to leave the table to use the toilet, I had to excuse myself without mentioning what it was that I was going to do. “May I be excused, please? I need to wash my hands.” I would say. My mother would say, “Sure.” My father would often play a joke on me by saying, “ 4. ”
As for eating, we did it quietly. No eating noises were allowed. Everything must be done as quietly as possible. If any sound was created by eating food or drinking, it would be considered as bad manners!
5. He is to sit up straight with the recessive hand (usually the left) in one’s lap holding a napkin while the dominant hand (usually the right) holds the fork or spoon. The only time one is allowed to have both hands on the table is when he is using a knife to cut something.
A. How one sits at the table is also prescribed.
B. We were not allowed to talk about anything that made listeners uncomfortable.
C. Can't you think up a better excuse than that?
D. They’re completely different from what we find here in China.
E. Your hands don’t look dirty!
F. The scene is fantastic.
G. In general they were all strictly forbidden topics.
A funny thing happened between China’s first female Nobel Prize winner, Tu Youyou, giving her acceptance speech in Sweden and that speech reaching her home country: Two entirely different versions appeared, and the fake one became a viral hit.
Guess which version is genuine? The one that matter-of-factly tells about the discovery of artemisinin(青蒿素), or the one with extreme literary style, complete with her father explaining the origin of her given name and poetic lines such as, “I like tranquility(宁静), tranquil as the leaves of sweet wormwood(蒿草).”
Most readers were so touched by the literary version that they were left in tears. However, they just forgot that Tu is not a woman of letters, but one of science. It was totally made up by someone who obviously has great literary talent, but could not fathom the inner life of a scientist.
I don’t know who made up the Tu speech, or for what purpose. It does not strike me as funny. Fortunately, no mainstream media seemed to have been fooled. Yet the fake one has probably been shared more than the real one because it played to the Chinese stereotype(固定形式) of what such a speech should be.
China’s cyberspace(信息空间) is full of educational and uplifting quotes, and quite a lot of them are made up. There is a joke that says the United States’ spying network collected and examined all the Internet data in China and found that the Chinese are addicted to such chicken soup, including that from untrustworthy sources.
1.The reason why many readers were moved to tears by the fake speech is that ________.
A. it was based on Tu’s real life
B. it was written in literary style
C. the readers had passions for science
D. the readers knew about the origin of Tu’s given name
2.What does the underlined word “letters” mean in the fourth paragraph?
A. Written messages addressed to a person or organization.
B. Characters in an alphabet that represent speech sounds.
C. Certificate or license.
D. Literary knowledge, ability, or learning
3.Why has the fake speech been shared more than the real one?
A. Because it was the Chinese stereotype.
B. Because many mainstream medias were fooled.
C. Because it was funny.
D. Because the writer understood the inner life of a scientist.
4.The purpose of the article is to _______________ .
A. prove that Chinese are addicted to fake news
B. prove that Chinese scientists have no literary talent
C. tell us there are a lot of fake news on the Internet
D. find out who made up the fake speech
