2015年CRI An Intellectual Quiz in English for Chinese Students

（单词翻译）

An intellectual¹ quiz, which tests both contestants³' English skills and their areas of knowledge, has recently been held in Beijing.

Kenny Liu Daxing, who is from Zhuhai college of Beijing Institute of Technology, joined the quiz.

"I felt the most interesting parts are related⁴ to fashion and music, because we are all interested in fashion and music in our daily life."

The quiz contest, which was organized by Education First, a global language training company, designed a big number of questions ranging from science and nature, sports and entertainment to world culture.

Questions may be either as trivial⁵ as "Jackie Chan originally trained for what type of career, beginning at age six?" or as historical knowledge as "Who did Zhege Liang borrow 100,000 arrows from"?

Majer Xia Maizhe is a contestant² from a winning team.

"I feel very excited about it. This contest is not just about memory; it's also about how fast you are."

Having been a teammate with Majer Xia and Kenny Liu, Ina Liu Yan thinks the contest also helps them build team spirit.

"I think it's a great process to develop our bonding⁶. So we grow as a team. We know exactly our place in the team. We don't say in details like who does what, but we find out our places and we did it very well."
