Here’s an unusual story: a diamond ring was recently found in an egg. The magician, Liu Qian, discovered it, in front of an audience of millions at CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala. Liu’s magic tricks have made the centuries-old art of magic fashionable once again, and made him the hottest magician in China.
As a seasoned young magician from Taiwan, Liu is popular worldwide for his magic shows. Countries he has performed in include the United States, Japan, South Korea and the UK
Witnessing something impossible happen right before your eyes is the root of people’s love for magic.
Liu is known for his interaction with his audiences. He has a unique understanding of showmanship (演出技巧) .
“It’s actually thinking rather than one’s manipulation(操作) skills that is more important to achieving a successful magic show. We think carefully about how to design the shows creatively to make them appear more interesting.” Liu said.
Liu Qian’s success dated back to his childhood. Born in 1976 in Taiwan, he found himself attracted to a magic toy in a shop when he was seven years old. At the age of 12, he won Taiwan’s Youth Magic Contest, which was judged by the great American magician, David Copperfield.
Yet, Liu never planned on becoming a professional magician. He studied Japanese literature at university and only hoped to be an amateur(业余的) magician in his spare time. However, his failure to find a proper job after graduation pushed him towards magic as a career.
To refine his performing skills, he has performed on streets, roads and fields, for passersby, policemen and farmers.
“Street shows are the biggest challenge for us magicians. We have to deal with unexpected situations and tough crowds,” Liu said. 56. The story is about ______________. A. why people love magic B. what magic tricks are C. how fashionable magic is D. how Liu Qian became China’s hottest magician 57. People love to watch magic because _____________. A. they can’t figure out the secret of magic B. it arouses their curiosity
C. they love watching magicians make the impossible happen D. it is a centuries-old art

It is impossible not to make a mistake at some point of your life. We may as well accept that something will go wrong and we will be to blame. It is therefore sensible to work out some plans for apologizing, and the best way to apologize is by letter.
