He'd need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out. While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It's nothing personal. Most Americans don't even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes. But this doesn't mean that Americans don't care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China. In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学)．Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Western philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers. So the old thinker's ideas are still alive and well. Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West. As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is. 64．The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ________. A．provide some key facts about Confucius B．attract the readers' interest in the subject C．show great respect for the ancient thinker D．prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations 65．We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students ________. A．have a great interest in studying Chinese B．take an active part in Chinese competitions C．try to get high scores in Chinese exams D．fight for a chance to learn Chinese 66．What is the best title for the passage? A．Forgotten Wisdom in America B．Huge Fans of the Chinese Language C．Chinese Culture for Westerners D．Old Thinker with a Big Future 67．The passage is likely to appear in ________. A．a biography B．a history paper C．a newspaper D．a philosophy textbook 【要点综述】尽管东西方纪念孔子的方式不同，孔子在西方仍受到推崇。世 界各地的孔子学院受到了西方人的欢迎。这成为了解中国文化的桥梁。 64. B　写作意图题。作者开篇提出，如果孔子活到今天，按照西方点蜡烛 庆祝他的生日，吹蜡烛是一件麻烦的事情。作者以这个作为开场白，目的是吸引 读者。C 有一定的干扰性。作者在后面讲述了西方人不会这么做，这并不代表他 们不尊重孔子，由此我们排除 C。 65. A　推理判断题。第四段的第一句就是本段的主旨句。这一段讲述了孔 子文化在西方的受欢迎程度，因此我们可以得出答案。 66. D　主旨大意题。全文讲述了孔子学院在西方的受欢迎程度。它架起了 东方文化向西方输送的桥梁，因此是古老的思想家与未来的结合。C 有一定的干 扰性。本文介绍了孔子思想在西方国家的传播，因此 C 的范围过大。 67. C　文章出处题。本文介绍了孔子学院在西方的盛行，因此属于报道类 文章，应该是在报纸里出现。 ************************************************************结束
