26、 A Chinese TV play,The Long Night has enjoyed great popularity, getting a high score of 9.2/10 on Douban. Viewers all spoke highly of this drama, saying it is even better than the original work.
As TV series such as The Bad Kids, Nothing but Thirty and Horizon Tower are still popular, netizens become excited and think that domestic(国内的)dramas are worthy of being followed. The Long Night, for example, makes people realize that everything can be easily imitated and copied except the understanding and search for aesthetics(美). Imitated or copied dramas often have no soul.
However,quite a few Chinese dramas prefer repeating or copying the content and theme in other dramas or their own ones.
Daylight Entertainment produced Ode to Joy(欢乐颂) to reveal the happiness and sadness of city beauties,receiving many positive comments.However, after the reproduction of Ode to Joy 2,All Is Well,and If There's No Tomorrow,it was criticized by professionals and audience for stereotypical(刻板的)creation:"Pile up the hopes of one hundred people onto one person the hero looks just like a live complaining post in the forum,and other characters are tools to hunt him."
Twenty Your Life On and Nothing but Thirty give the audience an impression that they are completely "coming from the trending topics and living on the trending topics". One viewer commented "I am guessing the next plays will be Forty to Know the Mandate of Heaven,Fifty to Move on,and Sixty Still Young".
Taking a closer look at the works that have earned a place in the history of Chinese drama none of them is a copy or copycat. Besides, they are too good to be followed.
Now,many Chinese dramas are noticeably turning themselves back to the right track. Hopefully,a good drama will not be followed by a group of twins or siblings.

A.Presenting a new point of view.
B.Leading in a new topic.

D.Making a conclusion.
【3】Which of the following is on the right track mentioned in the last paragraph according to the author?
A.The Long Night
B.If There's No Tomorrow
C.Nothing but Thirty
D.Sixty Still Young
【4】On what basis should Chinese domestic dramas be improved according to the author?
A.imitation B.impression C.popularity D.creativity
27、A murder will occur this weekend in the peaceful seaside town of Langley, Washington. In fact, a murder has occurred there every February for the past 25 years. But don’t panic! It’s all part of the town’s yearly Mystery Weekend.
What began as a local event in 1984 now attracts visitors from over the U.S. and even abroad. Would-be detectives (侦探) arrive and check in at the visitor center on Saturday. There, they receive a packet, including a newspaper with details about the crime and information telling where to find clues (线索). Participants then travel to various shops, restaurants and other downtown locations, picking up clues as they go. Along the way, they encounter and interview suspects played by local townspeople. Most Langley residents participate in some way in the Mystery Weekend, a true community event.
Amateur (业余的) detectives have until Sunday at 4:00 p.m. to solve the crime and turn in their guesses. Then as everyone gathers, the murderer is found and arrested, and prizes are awarded for correct answers. It’s the perfect ending for a murder mystery and enormous fun for those who get to play detectives.
For visitors, Mystery Weekend is not only fun but also a great introduction to the charms of Langley. It’s a very attractive community with historic buildings, exciting ocean views and above all, friendly people. Since Langley is on an island, a fun way to get there is by taking a ferry to the nearby town of Clinton and then driving the rest of the way. Langley has a delightful selection of inns with beds and breakfasts that are open all year round. And activities in Langley aren’t limited to Mystery Weekend.

29、It was a sunny winter day. I had gone down the tower when a blind man came toward me. He kept close to the wall, touching it lightly with his arm. I stood still and looked at him walking toward the tower.
"What does a blind man want to climb up the tower for?" I wondered, "Not the view (景色) certainly, perhaps he wants to jump. "Thinking of this terrible reason, I thought I should follow him.
He went up slowly and stopped from time to time. I followed him a few steps behind. When he got to the first corner of the bell tower, I came close to him. "Excuse me," I said as politely as I could, "but I wonder why you came up."
"You'd never guess." he said.
"Not the view or the fresh air on this winter day?"
"No." he said.
"Tell me, then."
He smiled, "Perhaps climbing up the tower. You have noticed - and yet, not being blind, perhaps you won't - how the sun shines into the tower through the windows here and there, so that one can feel the cool steps suddenly become quite warm, even in winter. But behind the wall there is shade (阴影). There is no place so good as this for feeling the difference between light and darkness. Though I'm blind, I also want to feel the happiness brought by the sunlight. In fact, it isn't my first time to be here." He said and seemed as pleased as a child.
I had never thought that even a blind man could have his way to enjoy the beautiful life. But we often paid no attention to its value because we never lost it.
We went down the tower together and I left him. From then on, I began to treasure what life has given me.
