Cold Truths
Is there any truth behind the saying “You are what you eat”? We put this to the test by asking three people to open their fridge doors and talk about their lifestyles.1.Maybe you can recognize your own fridge here!
“You might find bean products in our fridge, but hamburgers? Never!”—Amy, Teacher
2. This means we don't eat meat, and any milk or cheese had better be dairy-free. We like cooking at home and make our meals from fresh, seasonal fruit and vegetables. If we have children, I want to bring them up just like us, but my husband says that everyone should be able to make their own lifestyle choices.
“3.”—Mike, Chef
With five children, we're one big family! My wife and I both work full-time, so life can get pretty busy! Like a lot of chefs I know, I don't really do much cooking at home. Sometimes I bring home food from the restaurant where I work. Once a week we do a big shop and buy a lot of frozen food. I know we should eat more fresh fruit and vegetables...4.
“There isn't really much in my fridge. I'm too busy and tired to cook at home!”—Ted, Doctor
There's not enough room to swing a cat in my small apartment, so I don't cook very often. My fridge is usually half empty and I'm often too tired to eat much anyway.5.. As a doctor, I know I had better change the way I eat, but I just don't have the time or the energy right now.
A.My husband and I avoid all animal products.
B.Can you guess which fridge belongs to which person?
C.But ready meals are so convenient for full-time workers.
D.The food in our fridge comes from my workplace and shops.
E.My fridge is a total mess for all I do is party and hit the books.
F.I still don't think that anything can beat my mum's T-bone steaks.
G.Some evenings I'll have something quick like toast or even just a yogurt.
I thought I knew a lot about Hamlet.As an English literature major,I have to!Having seen quite a few productions of Hamlet and read the play many times,I was full of confidence-until Peking Opera came to town!
Peking Opera has over two hundred years of history,so does this mean it's easier than a Shakespeare play to understand?To find out the answer,I just had to go and see The Revenge of Prince Zidan- the Peking Opera version(版本）of Hamlet.
The opera brought a completely new sound to my Western ears.At first,I thought it was a violin.but later I learnt that it was a traditional Chinese instrument called jinghu.Then. seeing the characters in fantastic costumes and masks,I was amazed!They of course sang in Chinese,but the music and exaggerated movements helped get the meanings across to the audience.The voices sounded really unique-some of the female voices were so high that I was sure they could break glass!
Easily my favourite part of the show was how the characters moved on stage.I had never seen Prince Hamlet do a backflip(后空翻）before!It was so dazzling and energetic that I wasn't sure if the characters were performers or athletes!
Before experiencing The Revenge of Prince Zidan,I wasn't sure if I would enjoy it.But, in fact,I was on the edge of my seat!Feeling the strong emotions of love,anger,fear and grief in the performance,I could easily recognize the theme of Hamlet.So,if you want to see a show that combines music,singing,drama,poetry and costume design with explosive effect, The Revenge of Prince Zidan ticks all the right boxes!
1.Why did the author go to see The Revenge of Prince Zidan?
A.To have a full understanding of Hamlet.
B.To know about Shakespeare and his works.
C.To prove Peking Opera is a better way to perform Hamlet.

2.Which part of the opera attracted the author most?
A.The music effect.
B.The costume design.
C.The performers'movements.
D.The Chinese instrument jinghu.
3.What does the underlined"I was on the edge of my seat!"in Paragraph 5 suggest?
A.I became tired of the show.
B.I missed the best of the show.
C.I was held spellbound by the show.
D.I was to leave halfway through the show.
4.How did the the author feel about the Peking Opera version of Hamlet?
