Question

【題目】 In late January, a donation of masks and thermometers from the Japan Youth Development Association in Tokyo to Hubei Province caused a heated debate on Chinese social media.

This was because of the powerful poetic message written on each box: “山川異域，風(fēng)月同天。”.It literally translates to “ Mountains and rivers on foreign land wind and moon under the same sky.” or officially ,“Lands apart, sky shared ”Besides the heartfelt regard and the elegant (優(yōu)美的) language, the quote also alluded (暗指) a significant moment in the history of cultural exchange between the two countries.

The line comes from a seventh century Buddhist hymn (佛教圣歌) by prince Nagaya, a politician from the Nara period（710-794)of Japan, titled “Embroidered on Kasaya Robes for good Karma”: Lands apart， sky shared. For the disciples of Buddha, to nurture good karma.

The hymn was embroidered(繡) on 1,000 Buddhist robes(袍子)which Prince Nagaya had made and sent to the Tang court in China. It's a part of his invitation for Chinese Buddhist monks to visit Japan. The poem was also included in the Complete Tang Poems. The largest existing collection of Tang poetry.

Inspired by the Prince’s hymn, Jianzhen, decided to go on a voyage to Japan. After six attempts and the loss of his eyesight, Jianzhen finally arrived, and made a significant contribution to the spread of Buddhism in Japan.

本文講述了1月底，東京的日本青少年育成協(xié)會給暴發(fā)新型冠狀病毒肺炎疫情的中國湖北省捐贈的一批口罩和溫度計在中國社交媒體上引發(fā)了熱議。這是因為每個箱子上都寫著一句有力的詩句：“山川異域，風(fēng)月同天”。這句詩不但讓人想起了這段共同的歷史，也引發(fā)了兩國人民對中文古詩的共同欣賞之情。許多中國人都被日本民眾在新型冠狀病毒疫情期間支持中國的詩意表達(dá)方式所打動了。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“This was because of the powerful poetic message written on each box”可知這是因為寫在每個箱子上強(qiáng)大且詩意的消息，故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“It literally translates to “ Mountains and rivers on foreign land wind and moon under the same sky.” …the history of cultural exchange between the two countries.”可知提到發(fā)自內(nèi)心的認(rèn)為，優(yōu)雅的語言，歷史上的重要時刻，沒有提到日本人對中國文化的熱愛，故選D。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“The line comes from a seventh century Buddhist hymn (佛教圣歌) by prince Nagaya, a politician from the Nara period（710-794)of Japan, titled “Embroidered on Kasaya Robes for good Karma””可知這句話出自七世紀(jì)日本奈良時代(公元710-794年)的政治家長屋王子所作的一首佛教圣歌，歌名為“繡袈裟衣緣”，故選D。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)“not only invoke(引用) shared history, but also common appreciation for ancient poetry in the Chinese language.”可知不僅喚起了共同的歷史，也喚起了對中國古代詩歌的共同欣賞，與上文解釋“Lands apart, sky shared.”內(nèi)容相符，可推測出此處代指“Lands apart, sky shared.”，故選D。
