四、(2023·苏州工业园区金鸡湖学校月考;传统文化)阅读理解。
What goes into mind when you think of kung fu, also known as wushu? Maybe the image of Shaolin monks fighting with a serious look in their eyes, or popular children's movies like Kung Fu Panda. But are they really kung fu?
Recently, Laurence J. Brahm, a documentary film - maker from the United States, explored this question in Searching for Kung Fu. In the movie, Brahm began a journey of a kung fu pilgrimage(朝圣之旅), travelling to cities in China and the USA to search for the origin and value of kung fu.
Brahm himself is a kung fu lover who has been practising for more than 40 years. For him, practising the craft was more than fun. Around 10 years ago, Brahm was unable to use one of his legs for about two years. But by practising martial arts, he was able to recover step by step. Now, kung fu has become a daily activity for him.
“Martial arts can help us connect our body, connect our blood flow, and also help connect us into our environment to increase our awareness,” Brahm said.
Still others find other meanings in the practice.
“Chinese kung fu is full of Chinese philosophy and core(核心) values,” Hong Kong actor Bruce Leung said.
Non - fight is one of these values, which is shown both in the name and the practice. “Wu” is made up of two characters—“ge”, meaning “dagger - axe”, and “zhi”, meaning “to stop”. So, the meaning of kung fu in Chinese is the art of stopping fighting. Kung fu artists always end up with baoquan. This lets each person know that there is nothing hidden and shows trust.
Brahm sees kung fu as “a mirror of Chinese culture”. The traditional values of kung fu, actually, are in the minds of all Chinese people. Why does China want to be in harmony with other nations? “It's part of the psychology of the Chinese people. It's also national psychology,” Brahm said.
Brahm also believes that today's world needs to restart equal exchanges between countries, and that culture and sports, such as kung fu, can serve as a great channel and bridge.
1. What did Laurence J. Brahm explore in Searching for Kung Fu?
A. Styles of kung fu. B. People's impressions of kung fu.
