If you want to watch a music performance that combines song, dar formance that striking design, just forgeb about the latest popwideo take a look at a of musical performance: chinese opera last month was on a trip- in shanghai. i was staying with my chinese friend mai-li. she insisted that we go to
the chinese opera and i have to admit truly original style the experience was amazing from beginning to end opera has a long history in-china. in ancient times actors performed the operas on the streets on 10 temporary istages with only hanging lanterns for lighting. it's funny to think that such
grand art started out like that we arrived at the theatre just before the fights went down as the curtain rose, the actors came on stage in their 15 beautiful costumes the fiery reds and ribbons of gold and silver were like a kaleidoscope of colour! the costumes go all the way back to the street
show days, when the actors used to ear bright colours to stand out in the dark. the singing was quite strange-very sharp and high-pitched. just like the costumes, the singing style was really ancient. the street performers used to sing that way so that their voices could carry over the crowds who
gathered to watch. the opera we saw was 'lady white snake', a classic chinese folk tale. a white snake changes into a beautiful girl, and then falls in love with a human. but the actors didn't only tell the story through song: the dancing and acrobatics were fantastic, too. the actors used not only
their faces but also their whole bodies to act out the story and show their emotions these actors train very hard at opera schools for years from about the age of 7 or 8. there weren't a lot of stage props or scenery because the actors use a lot of symbols to help tell the story. an actor galloping
with a whip, for example, means they are riding a horse. doing somersaults from a table or a pile of chairs means they are running down mountain the actors' make-up was incredible. each colour has a special meaning and reveals something about their character; red character, blue means cruelty and
gold and silver means means loyalty and bravery, black shows a warrior or a wild mystery. at the finale, it was breathtaking to see them all on stage together in their bright costumes and make- up. i didn't think that opera was for me, but i can't believe how much i enjoyed it. you must see a
chinese opera one day
Топик Education in Kazakhstan
The educational system in Kazakhstan is conducted in two languages - Kazakh and Russian and consists of several levels of state and private educational establishments: infant schools, elementary (or primary) schools, comprehensive schools, colleges and academies. The constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan fixes the right of citizens of the republic on free-of-charge secondary education which is obligatory. The constitution prohibits any discrimination on the basis of language or ethnicity and guarantees equal rights in education regardless of nationality. Children start school at the age of 7 and finish at 17. As a rule a child attends the school, located in the neighborhood. However, in big cities there are so-called special schools, offering more in depth studies of the major European languages (English, French, German) or the advanced courses in physics and mathematics and children, attending one of this may have to commute from home.
The first stage of education in Kazakhstan is elementary (or primary) school for grades one through four. The second is secondary school for middle grades from five through nine. Upon graduation from secondary school students are given the choice of either continuing to attend the same school (high school -senior grades 10-11) or entering a vocational or technical school. Both of these schools are meant to provide one, along with the certificate of secondary education with a number of useful skills (e.g. those of an electrician, technical or computer operators.) Having completed one's secondary education, one can either become a part of work force or go on college (institution of higher learning-Institute).
To be admitted to the institute one has to pass a series of oral or written tests. Students may get free-of-charge higher education in the higher educational institution and the limited number of the state grants is given each academic year on a competitive basis. Some college departments (law, journalism, foreign language-especially English) have dozens of applicants for one prospective student's position. The system of higher education prepares highly - skilled experts on economy, transport, agriculture, medicine, languages and others. Today the young people of Kazakhstan have the opportunity to choose and acquire various types of education and build their lives according to their ambitions.
Studying of foreign languages and development of computer skills of pupils is of a special importance. More opportunities appear for the interested persons to be trained abroad on the basis of local and state grants, scholarships
