First, I want to ask you some questions. Do you like Beijing Opera? Do you know anything about it? Now let me tell you something about it. Beijing Opera is very popular in China. It has a history of more than 200 years. During the Qing Dynasty, Qianlong liked the local opera very much. In 1790, to celebrate his eightieth birthday, he asked opera teams from different places to perform for him in Beijing. Four famous teams from Anhui Province stayed in Beijing after the celebration. In 1828, a Hubei team came to Beijing and often performed together with the Anhui teams. The two types of singing were together and in the end a new type came into being, known as Beijing Opera. Beijing Opera is not only a representative of Operas in North China but also a mirror to the spirit of the local people. Now more and more people, even some foreigners are learning it. I hope you will like it. 12—17 FT F T F F
