Do you play King of Glory (《王者荣耀》)? If so, do you like the game? Why or why not?

Li Ming is a 13-year-old student in Shanghai. Since last May, he has spent most of his spare time on King of Glory. “Every boy in my class is playing it,” he said. “Good players are respected.”

King of Glory has been a very popular mobile game in China. It has had 50 million daily users. Unlike other games, King of Glory names all of its characters after figures(人物) from China’s history. “All of them look very cool,” said Li. His favorite hero is Jing Ke. “She’s very pretty,” the boy added.

Yes, you read right. The real Jing Ke was a man. In the game, however, he has been turned into a woman. Jing Ke is not alone. Li Bai, as we know, was a famous poet. In the game, his job is to kill the others. China’s first known physician, Bian Que, meanwhile, doesn’t just cure people. He also poisons his enemies.

This has caused a hot debate. Some parents are worried that the game may mislead their children. An article also criticized the game rewrote China’s history.

Others, however, are less worried. They think a game is a game.

The real problem, perhaps, is that there is no game rating system(评价制度) in China. King of Glory is designed for people over 16 years of age. According to a survey, however, more than 30 percent of the players are in primary or middle school. They are too young to tell the differences between fact and fiction(虚构).

24. According to the article, how old was Li Ming when he started playing King of Glory?

A.Ten years old. B. Eleven years old.

C. Twelve years old. D. Thirteen years old.

A. Poet B. killer C. physician D. game developer

26. What views on King of Glory is not mentioned in the passage?

A. Some parents are afraid the game may mislead their children.

B. Some people think the game shouldn’t rewrote China’s history.
