A

As a successful American businessman and inspiring speaker， Chris Gardner used to struggle with homelessness while raising a son. His autobiography （自傳）， The Pursuit （追尋） of Happyness， was a bestseller that has been translated into over 40 languages. This book was also made into a movie of the same name in 2006， which has won many awards.

In this movie Chris Gardner， a struggling salesman， is running short of money but is full of ambition （雄心）. The film set in San Francisco， Gardner is stuck in a dead-end job. He is an intelligent， successful workman by day， and a helpless father living in a train station at night.

You will be emotionally tired as you see this hard-working， loving father become more and more hopeless. To make matters worse， he is left to raise his five-year-old son alone after Christopher’s mother leaves them to live in New York. All he wants to do is protect his son， but being a single father is difficult， and being broke only makes it worse. The lines are excellent; but even without dialogue， the actor’s expressions in the movie capture the panic of a father， who is afraid of failing and losing his son.

Throughout the movie， you are hoping Gardner will succeed， and his positive attitude in the face of such difficulties is truly inspiring. Even though the movie is based on a true story， some critics （評(píng)論員） have said that The Pursuit of Happyness does not reflect reality because Gardner never seems to tire or lose hope in his dream to be successful even when he is homeless. Despite this criticism， the ending leaves you with a warm feeling and the actor does an excellent job of making us believe that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.

Avi Bendahan and Shijia Jiang are unlikely cooperators.

Jiang is a classically trained performer of Peking Opera， or Jingju. Bendahan is a local actor， dancer in Canada. He and Jiang together are the core （核心） of Jingju Canada， a theater company that adapts the ancient Chinese art in Montreal and across Canada.

“I really want people in the West to know Peking Opera，” says Jiang. The two are， in a sense， building an audience for the art form in and outside of the city’s Chinese community.

“Peking Opera is very strict， and hard to understand. They don’t speak standard Chinese. No， they speak the Peking Opera dialect （方言），” Meng Rong， the leader of the Confucius Institute in Quebec says.

One of Jingju Canada’s approaches to that problem is to translate.

Their first show was 2011’s Crossroads.

“It was the first time Jingju Canada translated a Chinese opera show into English，” says Bendahan. “And it was the first time we created newish characters.”

Bendahan handles the translations. “The language is very hard for me，” says Jiang， referring to English. Jiang’s strong point in performance is combat—she trained in China as a wudan， a fighting woman.

But change， of course， presents challenges.

“They don’t want to lose the core things from Peking Opera，” says Rong. That’s where Jiang’s other speciality （專長(zhǎng)）， besides combat， comes in. She was among the first in China to study the new-for-Jingju program of directing. “We learned new ways of directing，” she says. “We used music， dance， movies， and then put them together with Peking Opera.”

“Crossroads was very successful，” says Rong. “The audiences really loved it. And I think for every culture， if the nice part can be shown to the public， and everybody understands and everybody enjoys it， why don’t we do it？”

5. Why does Jiang work with Bendahan on Jingju Canada？

A. To help Bendahan study Chinese.

B. To develop her friendship with Bendahan.

C. To help foreigners know about Peking Opera.

D. To perform Peking Opera in Chinese communities.

6. What makes Peking Opera less popular according to Rong？

A. Its boring settings. B. Its outdated music. C. Its unique language. D. Its special characters.

7. What did Jiang do when preparing for Crossroads？

A. She used a new method of directing. B. She gave up her directing program.

C. She trained other performers. D. She translated the text.

8. How does Rong feel about Jiang and Bendahan’s work？

A. Shocked. B. Satisfied. C. Doubtful. D. Thankful.
