Even after more than a thousand years, we can still feel the power within its burning eyes, orderly teeth and kicking hooves（马蹄）.Night-shining White, now kept in New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art, is regarded as one of the most important horse paintings in the history of Chinese art. Its artist, Han Gan, is known for his skill in drawing not only the physical features of the animal, but also the inner spirit and strength.Born into a poor family in the early Tang Dynasty, the young Han Gan had to help support his family by working in a local wine shop. His talent in art was discovered by accident when he was sent to the poet Wang Wei's house to collect payment for some wine. While waiting at the gate, Han Gan used a stick to draw pictures on the ground and was seen by the poet. Wang Wei decided to help the young man to study painting. Because of Han's natural talent and years of hard work, he was finally chosen to serve Emperor Xuanzong.The Tang emperors were crazy about horses. At that time, the most common way to study horse painting was by copying the works of previous painters. Han Gan's way, however, was differenthe studied the animal itself. He often visited the royal stables and even moved in to live with the workers for some time. The horses, whether resting or on the move, offered him a lot of ideas. The more time he spent studying these animals, the more his understanding of them grew. Day by day, Han Gan painted the horses best. His brush could show every detail that he saw with his own eyes.Those who saw Han Gan's horse paintings were all surprised at his skills. They said that his horses “could gallop off the paper”. Even Su Shi, the famous poet of the Song Dynasty, expressed his admiration for Han Gan as the best one of horse painting with the words, “The horses painted by Han Gan are real horses.39.

The Story Behind Night-shining WhiteD.The Art in Tang DynastyDThe Internet is a place where we can talk freely, but it is also a place where we pay little attention to whether or not our language ability is becoming poorer.According to a recent survey by China Youth Daily, more than 76 percent of young people in China said they felt their Chinese language skills have become weaker. They don't use rhetorical technique（修辞手法）as often anymore. It is believed that digital technology（数字技术）and Internet emojis（表 t青包）have changed their communication habits.For example, direct expression is the first choice to communicate online. When one sees something funny, one will simply type “hahaha“ or use the “cry-laugh“ emoji, Beijing Youth Daily noted. What's more, Cai Xiaoxia's teacher from Fuzhou, told China Youth Daily that words in general are being used less. For example, people can share photos and emojis online with a few words to describe them.Also, “copy and paste（粘贝占）culture is getting popular People simply pick up expressions from the internet without much thought. Many begin to use a fixed set of sentence patterns, such as “YYDS”.If this continues, it could influence our way of thinking, People s Daily noted. When we use expressions without thinking, it means we have become too lazy to express our real feelings. If teenagers are used to using emojis, they could lost the ability to use words properly.To improve our language skills, experts suggest that we should try to think independently and develop our own language. They also suggest that we should read more works of literature（文学）."Keep using different words to show your special feelings." said Shen Xiaolong, a professor in the Chinese department at Fudan University.40. Which information is NOT true according to China Youth Daily's survey?A. Over three quarters of young Chinese people think their language skills have become stronger.B. Young Chinese people don't use rhetorical technique as often anymore.C. Digital technology and Internet emojis have changed young Chinese people's communication habits.D.
