What can we do whenever Earth faces a disaster? Is the only solution running away from the planet in spaceships? The latest Chinese sci-fi movie, The Wondering Earth, offers a different and more ambitious（有雄心的）idea.

The film is based on a short story by Chinese sci-fi writer Liu Cixin. In the film, Earth is in danger of being destroyed by the dying sun. Humans around the world work together to build a giant engine system that will push Earth away from the sun. We're taking the Earth with us to run away.

What makes The Wandering Earth different from Hollywood-style space films? It's probably the special cultural background. For thousands of years, “homeland” has rooted in the hearts and minds of Chinese people. One old saying is luoyeguigen. It means returning to one’s homeland in old age, like fallen leaves returning to the roots of their tree. There are also many ancient poems about homeland. “The season called the White Dew begins tonight / Nowhere as in our native place is the moon so bright” (露從今夜白，月是故多明). These all show that Chinese people have the tight bond（情感紐帶） with their homeland.

What is Chinese sci-fi? Guo Fan, the film’s director said: “Chinese sci-fi is a way to express our cultural and the spiritual core (精神內(nèi)核). Otherwise, we’re just imitating（模仿）others and telling the same American stories.” And the film was released on February 5, 2019, the first day of Chinese New Year. It was a time when many people had just made the hard journey back to their hometowns. It seems the best time to tell this Chinese sci-fi story. Anyway, to us Chinese, Earth goes wherever humans go, because it's our home.

1.Why do people consider the film so ambitious?

A. Humans work together to build a giant engine system.

B. Humans are trying to take the Earth to run away together

C. The film story is written by the famous writer Liu Cixin

D. People have managed to run away from Earth in spaceships

2.Why does the writer use the old saying and ancient poems in this passage?

A. To tell the difference between Chinese and American.

B. To remind us of China's thousands of years of history.

C. To teach some Chinese traditional cultures and spirits.

D. To express Chinese people's love of their homeland.

3.What makes The Wandering Earth different from Hollywood-style sci-fi?

A. Its fantastic pictures and settings. B. Imitating foreign sci-fi films.

C. Its Chinese cultures and spirits. D. Its creative and brave idea.

4.What's the best title for the passage?

A. The Latest Chinese Sci-fi Film B. What is Chinese Sci-fi?

C. Chinese Sci-fi Sets a New Path D. Chinese Sci-fi VS Hollywood-style
