The Yu Opera, is one of the five main operas in China. It is the country’s leading local opera with the largest number of performers. In its early stage, it had another name Henan clapper opera (Henan bangzi). It was only after the 1950s that Yu Opera became its official (官方的) title. Yu Opera is welcomed in Henan and other provinces, including Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi, and Hubei, making it one of the most popular operas in China.

The four major tunes of the Yu Opera include Xiangfu Tune which is always performed in Kaifeng; Yudong Tune, liked around Shangqiu; Yuxi Tune, local to Luoyang and Shahe Tune which is most used along the Shahe River.

Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
16 It means that we should go to bed early at night and get up early in the morning. If we do, we shall be healthy. We shall also be rich and clever.
Is this true Perhaps it is. 17 Children of your age need ten hours’ sleep every night. If you go to bed late, you can’t have enough sleep. Then you can’t think carefully and your homework will be wrong. You will not be wise and you may not become wealthy!
Some people go to bed late at night and get up late in the morning. This is not good for them. 18 The dark helps us sleep well. When the daylight comes, we should get up. This is the time for exercise. If the body is not used, it will become weak. Exercise keeps it strong.
19 Blood takes nutrition (营养) to all parts of our bodies. The brains in our heads also need blood (血液). We think with our brains. If we keep our bodies healthy, and take exercise, we can think better!
20 Without air we will die. Get up early in the morning and we can have plenty of clean, fresh air. That will keep us healthy and happy.
A．Exercise helps the blood to move around inside the body.
B．Our bodies also need air to breathe.
C．The body must have enough sleep.
D．We should sleep at night when it is dark.
E．This is an old English saying.

How I have changed
My life has changed a lot in the past few years. I used to be overweight. But now I’m not anymore. I lost a lot of weight after I started playing tennis. Playing tennis is a very good sport. Now I’m fitter and healthier.
The biggest change in my life was becoming much better in English. Thanks to my English teacher, Mrs Wong, who gave me an interesting book to read. I enjoyed it so much that I started to read other books.
This is the most important change because I am no longer afraid of the English language and I am doing better in my exams. This has made my parents even prouder of me.
