有同学看过李冰冰和全智贤主演的电影《雪花秘扇》吗？她们在影片中饰演闺蜜，两人写信用的就是女书！女书到底是什么呢？
In China， some women have a secret language. It’s called nüshu， meaning “female script”.在中国，一些妇女有一种秘密的语言，叫女书，意思是“女性的文字”。
Nüshu is a written language with a long history. Hundreds of years ago， it became popular among women in Jiangyong county（县），Hunan. Women there could not go to school at the time. So they made their own words. Men could not understand them.女书是一种历史悠久的书面语。数百年前，它流行于湖南省江永县。那里的妇女当时不能上学读书，于是她们发明了自己的语言。这些语言男人是看不懂的。
Women used nüshu to write poems（诗）and songs about their lives. They wrote them on pages， in books and on fans. They even stitched（缝）them in clothing. During parties， they sang them aloud（大声地）.那里的女性用女书来写关于她们生活的诗歌和歌曲。她们把这些诗歌和歌曲写在书和扇子上，甚至缝在衣服上。在聚会中，她们还大声歌唱这些诗歌和歌曲。
But today， not many women can write nüshu anymore. Jiangyong county wants to save（挽救）nüshu. Some high schools in Jiangyong start nüshu lessons.但是今天已经没有多少女性写女书了。江永县想要挽救女书，为此江永县的一些中学开设了女书课程。
Zhao Liming is a professor（教授）at Tsinghua University. She works with an app called Talkman （翻译精灵）. Since September， users can learn nüshu through this app.赵丽明是清华大学中文系的教授。她致力于一个应用程序，叫做Talkman（翻译精灵）。自九月起，用户可以通过这个应用程序学习女书了。

It’s hard for famous people to be true to themselves. After all， fans always want to see their good side. But Chinese singer and actor Huang Zitao， 24， always shows his true feelings.明星真的很难做真实的自己。毕竟，粉丝们总是希望看到他们好的一面。但中国歌手、演员，年仅24岁的黄子韬，总是能表现出自己的真实感受。
Huang is straightforward（直率的）. He never hides his opinions. Many people don’t like him because of it. Once， he went to an evening party for Mid-Autumn Festival. People asked him what kind of moon cake he liked. He said， “I don’t like moon cakes at all.”黃子韬很直率。他从不掩饰自己的看法，所以很多人因此不喜欢他。有一次，他参加一个中秋节晚会，有人问他喜欢吃什么样的月饼，他说：“我一点也不喜欢吃月饼。”
He is confident（自信）too. Chinese actor Jackie Chan， 63， thought highly of his talent. And it made him so happy. He even talked about it in an interview （采访）. But it’s true that Huang has many talents. He is good at singing， dancing， martial arts（武术）and sports.黄子韬很自信。63岁的中国演员成龙非常看重他的才能，这让他很高兴，甚至在采访中也提及此事。黄子韬有很多天赋都是真实的。他擅长唱歌、跳舞、武术和体育。
Huang proves himself through hard work. In the show Takes a Real Man （《真正男子汉》），he tried to be a real soldier（士兵）in the army（军队）. When he left the army， he even cried. Some people began to change their opinion of him.
黄子韬通过努力证明了自己。在综艺节目《真正男子汉》中，他想成为一个真正的军中战士。（棉花糖：黄子韬在军队里表现很不错，很能吃苦，会在某些时刻让人突然感动，是一个温柔而不自知的莽撞少年。）当离开部队时，他甚至难过地哭了起来。自此，一些人开始改变了对他的看法。
