Personal space is not a concept that ordinary Chinese are familiar with. Pushing and shoving (乱挤) is a basic survival skill in cities. If you fail to push with people to get on a crowded underground train, youll be met with impatient stares.Throughout China, people are happy to lie down for a short sleep just about anywhere: in an office, on a park bench, even in a museum or concert hall, looking as comfortable as if the public space were their own living room.So it is a surprise to see Matti, a socially awkward Finnish (芬兰的) cartoon character in the Finnish Nightmares comic series become a celebrity in Chinas cyberspace. A new term in Mandarin has even been invented to describe people who are like the hero: jingfen, or “spiritually Finnish”. According to social media, jingfen refers to people who dislike socialising-like the Finns, apparently-and take their personal space “extremely seriously”.Mattis fear of crowds and small talk and his tendency to be easily embarrassed has struck a chord (共鸣) with many Chinese readers, who seem relieved that their longing for privacy has finally been voiced-via the medium of a stick figure from a faraway country. But its Finnish culture itself-of which privacy and personal space have long existed-that has also struck a chord.“Finland is a paradise for people with social anxiety disorder,” wrote WeChat user Zhang Yanmei in a post. “I am a jingfen, please do not disturb me unnecessarily!” wrote an anonymous user in the title of his essay on the website Douban. “Can you see yourself in Matti?” he asked. “He is shy, and the great trouble and sufferings of life are not just Mattis nightmare. Were all afraid of loneliness, but we desire even more for our personal space and privacy to be respected.” 11. Why does the author mention the large population in China at the beginning? A. To show the subway is too crowded. B. To show privacy is a pleasure people dont often have. C. To explain why people enjoy life outdoors. D. To indicate people dont have enough living room to live in. 12. What does “jingfen” in China have in common with Matti? A. They are willing to lie down anywhere in public for a rest. B. They like loneliness and wish their privacy to be respected. C. They desire personal space and dont want to be disturbed. D. They treat Finland as a paradise.13. What is mainly talked about in this passage? A. There are cultural differences between China and Finland. B. A lot of people suffer from social anxiety disorder. C. Why so many Chinese people like Matti in Finlands Comic. D. All people can find themselves in Matti.BAs the taxi pulls away, my father stands at the living room window looking out, w
