Now let me say something about Beijing Opera. Beijing Opera is very popular in China. It has a history of more than 200 years. During the reign of the Qianlong emperor in the Qing dynasty, Qianlong had a interest in the local opera. In 1790, to celebrate his eightieth birthday, he summoned opera troupes from different places to perform for him in Beijing. Four famous troupes from Anhui province remained in Beijing after the celebration. In 1828, A Hubei troupe came to Beijing and often performed together with the Anhui troupes. The two types of singing mixed together and gradually a new type came into being known as Beijing Opera. Now is the performance. I hope you will like it.

　　现在让我说关于京剧。京剧在中国很受欢迎。它已经有200多年的历史。在清朝乾隆年间，乾隆对地方剧有兴趣。1790，为了庆祝他的八十岁生日，他从不同的地方戏曲剧团召唤到北京为他表演。来自安徽省的四个剧团表演完后留在了北京。1828年，一个湖北剧团来到北京，经常与安徽剧团一起演出。两种唱法混合在一起，逐渐成了一种新的类型被称为京剧。现在京剧就要开始了。我希望你会喜欢它。
