Many Chinese girls love "small, fresh meat", which refers to young, effeminate(女人氣的) male stars. However, not everyone is a fan of them. On Sept. 6, an article described some male stars as too effeminate.

This came after CCTV was criticized for inviting several young male stars to perform on First Class for the New Semester,an educational TV show for primary and secondary school students, which aired 5days earlier. After that, many parents left comments online, saying the stars in the show had a bad influence on their children.

The popularity of effeminate male stars is partly down to the influence of Japanese and South Korean pop culture, an expert told China Daily. However, the “femininity” of males isn't a recent social phenomenon. In fact, being effeminate was popular among Chinese men centuries ago.

Indeed, the debate about effeminate male stars has been going on for a while. In July, a Hong Kong singer said during the singing reality show Sing! China that he feels tired of seeing effeminate male stars. “It isn't that they're not good, but we should discover ourselves.”He said during the show.

His opinion was shared by a Chinese director. “Some young actors are feminine and they should be more manly,” he said.

Deng Xiquan, head of the Youth Research Institute at the China Youth and Children Research Center, believes such a phenomenon is completely natural.“It will be replaced by a new youth culture at some stage. If a man has feminine beauty, this doesn't mean that he lacks responsibility,” Deng told China Daily. Deng's opinion was echoed by the People's Daily.“A man's strength should be judged on the basis of their inner qualities - not their phyical apperance,” it wrote.

1.First Class for the New Semester aired on_________

A. Sept.6 B. Sept.3 C. Sept.2 D. Sept.1

2.From the third paragraph we can know that_________

A. the popularity of effeminacy appeared in Japan first

B. young, effeminate male stars are popular in South Korea

C. in China, being effeminate was popular hundreds of years ago

D. Chinese experts don't think effeminate male stars are popular

3.Which of the following is RIGHT about the Hong Kong singer?

A. He doesn't like effeminate male stars. B. He thinks some young actors are more manly.

C. He doesn't know anything about Sing! China. D. He asks women to discover themselves.

4.The underlined word“echoed" here means“_________”in Chinese.

A. 利用 B. 附和 C. 質(zhì)疑 D. 聲明

5.What’s the passage mainly about?

A. “Feminine” men cause hot debates. B. The time being effeminate appeared.
