二、阅读理解
In London, there is a cool art group. The group has Chinese students and British people who love art. They paint together using the most traditional Chinese tools: the brush and ink.
They often hold art shows. The paintings are special. Some show peaceful Chinese mountains and rivers. Others show London's famous scenes(景色). One painting of Big Ben is very popular. It uses only black ink and water to show London's fog and light. Next to the painting, there is a note in English and Chinese. It explains the Chinese idea of "empty space" in art, an idea that leaves room for your own thoughts.
People love the shows. "An old British man often comes and spends a long time looking at one of our paintings for a long time," says group member Li Wei. "He tells me it feels peaceful and reminds him of home. That makes me really happy. Even though we are from different places, art makes us feel connected."
The group also gives free painting classes. People learn how to use ink and brushes, and paint simple things like bamboo. The teacher, Ms Wang, says, "We are not just teaching how to paint. We are teaching a way to see the world."
More people are learning about the group online. The group now hopes to work with schools so more children can try Chinese painting. Li Wei says, "Sharing culture is like ink spreading(晕染) on paper. It's quiet but can touch many hearts. We hope our paintings can be a bridge between China and the world, helping everyone understand each other better."
