中考网

　　Every morning, millions of people in China do Tai-chi. It is popular with women and men. Tai-chi is a good kind of exercise for old people. It is good for the body and for the mind. It is healthy and relaxing. Tai-chi is from China. It is hundreds of years old. Tai-chi is a "soft" martial art（武术）.That means it is slow and calm.
       
        　　There are also "hard" martial arts. Shaolin Kung-fu, for example, which has a history of over 1,500 years, is a "hard" martial art. It is fast and dangerous. You have to be very fit and strong to do "hard" martial arts.
       
        　　In Beijing, Master Li Yu is teaching Shaolin Kung-fu to thirty young students, three of whom come from abroad. "Shaolin Kung-fu is difficult," said Li Yu. "You must practise every move many times."
       
        　　Sports like football and basketball are also popular in China. But martial arts like Tai-chi and Kung-fu are part of Chinese culture and history.

        　　【点睛】
                这篇短文给我们介绍了太极和少林功夫两种武术形式，太极属于＂软＂武术，而少林功夫属于＂硬＂功夫，他们都是中国历史和文化的一部分。短文内容比较容易理解，后面的题目设置以细节理解题为主，考查的是文章细节信息的理解。做题时，应根据题目所问，在短文中搜索有用信息作答。例如第3小题，这个题目是判断题，但其实我们也是从文章细节信息中寻找线索来判断，因此四个选项我们都要从文章中找到信息来印证他们是对是错。根据短文第一段It is hundreds of years old.以及第三段中Shaolin Kung-fu, for example, which has a history of over 1,500 years, is a "hard" martial art.可知，太极有几百年的历史，而少林功夫的历史有1500多年，因此太极的历史比少林功夫短，故C是正确的。其他三个选项也可以在短文中找到依据判断他们是错误的。
