Whether you play e-sports（電子競技）or not, you might have heard of iG (Invictus Gaming), a Chinese e-sports club. On the night of Nov 3, iG beat Europe’s Fnatic club and won the 2018 League of Legends (LoL) World Championship in South Korea. It was the first time in the event’s（賽事）eight-year history that a Chinese club won.

The long-awaited victory showed how e-sports has progressed in China in recent years. A growing number of e-sports clubs have been founded in China in the last 10 years, and more young gamers are working as e-sports players. However, becoming a skillful e-sports player is not all fun and games.

An e-sports player must be quick in action and able to bear hardship.

They must also have a high APM which means how many actions they can do in a game within one minute. Skilled players can have an APM as high as 400.

There is a limit（限制）to how long they can play this well. Skillful players’ ages are mostly from 17 to 25. After a certain age, they become slower.

E-sports players have to work hard every day. “We start to practice right after we get up in the morning and usually last until midnight,” said Huang Fuquan, a player from iG. “There is at least 12 hours of work every day.”

Many players practice so much that they get pains and arthritis（關節(jié)炎）. They also face lots of problems. Some e-sports clubs even invite doctors to help their players.

So if you want to turn your love for gaming into a full-time job, ask yourself this first: Are you really prepared?

1.How long have e-sports players waited for the victory?

A.For 8 years. B.For 10 years. C.For 17 years. D.For 25 years.

2.There were ______ in e-sports in the last 10 years.

A.more skillful and old gamers B.fewer foreign gamers

C.more clubs and young gamers D.fewer full-time gamers

3.An e-sports player must ______.

A.be very handsome B.have a low APM C.work hard every day D.be old enough

4.The passage was written to _____.

A.tell people how to do sports B.describe e-sports players’ life

C.ask more people to play e-sports D.introduce foreign e-sports clubs

Art lovers around the world think about this question for so many years: why does Mona Lisa smile?

However, they can ask Mona Lisa herself in the show in Beijing. It brings the 500-year-old painting to life.

Now Leonardo da Vinci’s famous painting(畫) can move her head and wave(揮舞) her hand in 3D, and even answer questions. She can answer the questions about her life, her age and so on.

The new digital(數(shù)碼的) picture of Mona Lisa is the center piece of the World Classic Interactive Arts Exhibition in Beijing. You can also see other world-famous paintings such as Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper. Last Supper is another picture that they made alive(活的) with 3D. In this picture, Jesus(耶穌) can walk and talk with his believers(信徒).

It took Wang Hui and over 400 digital artists in South Korea two years to make the picture, at a cost of about 50, 000, 000 yuan.

He says, “What’s special about it is that it’s the first time to use computer technology(技術) to make her speak and move.”
